Just a friendly programming reminder

It’s just an hour away, and I’m so excited — like I’ve never seen my boys Jake and Johnston Green, Rob Hawkins, and Stanley Richmond before (or at least 10 times before). But it’s here. The first Sunday night of the next 29 weeks when The CW Network, bumping its previous programming, substitutes Jericho at 7 PM for another run on a national network and gives viewers, who may have missed it the first time around, the opportunity to see what all the fuss is about.

Tonight, Jericho returns.

The latest update from Redsox.
Fellow Rangers today is the Big Day. Jericho Returns to Network Television to the CW for what we all hope is a 29 week run of Season 1 and 2 straight through the end of May 2009.
As I said in my original post in Operation Phoenix following the Ranger Meeting at UHD on November 20th, this is all about the numbers, Nielsen and Feedback letters and comments via the feedback forms.
Back on November 8th we started out to get Jericho back into the forefront as we were gearing up to launch the TV AD on UHD which begins tomorrow on UHD Network for a 4 week run. Thanks to Norsu we found out that CBS had put Season 1 out on Youtube.
We decided to include that as part of our marketing strategy to get people watching Jericho again in as many forums as possible including UHD and Youtube. We began our campaign of post to community, college, scifi Boards, social networks like Face Book and Myspace to try and get the word out that Jericho was not dead but was still a very viable show.
I had set some goals with regard to numbers, with getting 50,000 people to view Jericho on Youtube by December 14 and hitting 10,000 posts on the UHD Board by November 30. Both of these goals have been reached. Both are significant numbers as we are starting to see the grass roots movement pick up speed. Like a wave that starts out slowly and continues to build until it finally crests we want to see the numbers continue to climb each week during the 29 week run on the CW, on UHD and the UHD Board and on Youtube.
This is different than any Campaign we have undertaken before, Our Goals are simple, we need to get people to sit down and watch Jericho on the CW, right now we are focusing on getting the word out that the show is starting with the Pilot on November 30, 2008 on the CW at 7:00pm EST and will run hopefully
Once the show starts we need to send CBS and CW Feedback via the Feed back forms.
CW Feedback Form http://cwtv.com/feedback/comments
CBS Feedback Form http://www.cbs.com/info/user_services/fb_global_form.php
We are also sending our letters and cards to Nancy Tellem (CBS Paramount) and Bonnie Hammer (NBC Universal) each Monday and to Dawn Ostroff (CW) and D'Arcy Rudnay at Comcast each Thursday. The purpose is 2 fold, one make a business argument to continue the show and the second is to get our collective voices recorded and counted. We are dealing with finance and numbers people (bean counters) plain and simple.
I know that Dark Crystal and Rat Keeper have some ideas about doing better feedback letters so check out JNET and JKI. Important information to give is your age, gender, household size, profession what are your television viewing habits and your desire that CBS put Jericho back on the air with a movie and new episodes.
It has a been a long road and many have come and gone since March 2008, but with CBS putting the show on the CW we have a real chance to speak directly the Executives and Bean counters at CBS Paramount, NBC Universal, Comcast and other Networks that Jericho is a viable, money making commodity worth continuing.
Make no mistake about it all of our efforts have made a difference, the Bill Board and TV Ads have caught the Executives attention, or realistically Jericho would not be on UHD nor would the CW be putting back on the air. But it is the simple things that will win the day and take only a few minutes time.
Each Sunday complete the Feedback Form for CBS and The CW. Each Monday and Thursday send out your post cards or letters. Watch Jericho each week on the CW and UHD if you can and spread the word and help continue the Jericho wave to grow in strength until it crashes over the Seawall into the CBS Paramount Offices and results in their decision to continue the Jericho story.
Every body who has been a part of this community, no matter if they joined the UHD Board last week or have been here since 2006 has contributed. Although it was Dark and all seemed Lost there were a core of people who kept the torch going over the summer and into the Fall.
I for one am glad that I stuck around to see what is Happening. Jericho is on 2 Networks, THE CW and UHD (NBC Universal), our TV AD is playing on UHD for 4 weeks, New people are Discovering the show and old ones are reconnecting. Jericho Lives into the Spring of 2009.
How many reading this post would have said that 3 weeks ago? It sounds good to me. See you all at the Ranger Rally tonight at the CW Board at 7:00pm.

A treasure trove collection of Jericho links from the early days of the save Jericho campaign has gone dark. Jericholinks.com had become something of a museum piece with many of its own links leading to dead internet ends but the text based page is a perfect candidate for viewing via the internet archive and its way back machine.

With things firing up on a few Jericho fronts, there is a lot to celebrate. Our ad, thanks to the work of Redsox, Nightshade, Welcome2Cho, Norsu, K6 (and probably others I’m forgetting) will be airing nationally on Universal HD. All of the credit goes to the people mentioned in the last line as I had a much smaller role in making it happen than they did. Also, as has been posted, Jericho will be returning to the air soon for a sequential 29 week run on the CW.

Hello Fellow Rangers, hope you had a Happy Sunday, on Monday we re-start the letter writing campaign to NBC Universal.
Right now RubberPoultry is working on technical issues with the sound on the UHD TV Ad. It should be worked out soon and we are still on for November 24th start of the ad.
This campaign has two key objectives. First we want Bonnie Hammer and Nancy Tellem to pick up the phone and call each other. Each has a need and Jericho is the perfect answer for both.
The second is to get Jericho watched by as many people around the world as we can, by getting eyes to You tub* and to the UHD Board/UHD channel.
We also need to keep up the pressure on multiple avenues.
Rich at Copywrite Inc is considering a story, which should raise awareness. Rich is a key Jericho ally.

Letter Writing
We are targeting Bonnie Hammer at NBC Universaland Nancy Tellem at CBS/Paramount.
We are trying to make a clear concise business argument. Jericho has a core audience that can be built and is exactly what advertisers are looking for. It has a strong internet presence and is at the forefront of the how television is changing in the 21st century.
We need everyone we can get to get their letters and cards out Monday, then again next Monday, November 17, November 24th and each Monday through December.

NBC Universal has numerous channels (Sci Fi, USA, NBS , Bravo, Hulu and it's international markets), and Jericho is a perfect fit.
From the JKI Telegraph:
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/television/news/e3i2d029babe3f1f02e58b85c5845c02ace
Per Hollywood Reporter (owned by Nielsen) - Network shows see on-demand/internet viewing growth of 600% in the past year.
Jericho always has had a strong on-line audience and that was before the very large growth in this area.
From Redsox:
Jericho, with a little promotion, would beat most of NBC's top 10 shows and the Sci Fi/UHD/USA numbers are even lower.
From TV By the Numbers:
Jericho's last episode's ratings were: Live - 5661and Timeshifted -1229 for a total of 6890. Viewers (000). This was during a 20% viewer loss due to the writers strike.

Fans increasingly seek to influence the plots of TV shows through blogs and forums. But should producers and writers be listening to them?
Editor: Article has a nice Jerihco method.

I’d usually opt for some David Lynch but my brain is mush in the morning - i wanted to be entertained on the train without having to think to much. Post apocolyptic drama Jericho was ok and it passed the time.

Seems that the post-apocalyptic drama (and fan favorite) “Jericho” is the first modern series that CBS has made available in its entirety in Youtube. Nuts!

Rewatch
Please join us at the www.radiofreejericho.com chat room for the final episode of season 2 on Tuesday November 18th at 10 ET. This will be our last episode until the new year when we will start over with season one. Watching Patriots and Tyrants will remind you of why we are still in the fight to get a third season of Jericho there are so many unanswered questions. CBS describes the episode: Jake and Hawkins have one final opportunity to prove to the independent Texas government that they hold the evidence to one of the biggest conspiracies in history...but first they'll have to get past the Cheyenne government. I hope to see everyone there remembering why we fight. During the holidays we will hold fun chats on Tuesday nights.

Operation Home Cooking

The name of the cookbook will be Operation Home Cooking. These girls have come up with this idea on their own and have been working really hard to make this happen. They are in need of Jericho fan recipes if any of you have any you would be willing to share for it. They are also looking for someone to design the cover.

'Jericho is one of the best dramas on television. But the network never really gave it a fighting chance.
Editor: Jericho was the first one listed!

Just wanted all of you to know that CBS has put Jericho on You Tube. It’s the first CBS series to be released this way.
Jericho is an alternate future story of what happens when America is attacked and the government crumbles. The people of the small town of Jericho must deal with the unthinkable and find a way to survive. Jericho shows how people rise to the challenges around them, and in today’s world their story is inspiring. Come check out this great series that was too good for commercial television, but is watched by millions worldwide via the internet.

How much does it cost to start up a premium cable channel assuming you already have a library of programming to show? Apparently $110m to $150m is a good start.

Jericho, the ratings-challenged CBS show that got two lives courtesy of fan outcry on the web, popped up on YouTube over the last couple weeks. We noticed the addition when we were researching another story yesterday.

The growth of the Internet has not only increased the power of consumers, but it also allows users to access an unlimited amount of data and content at their leisure and according to their desire. Everyone knows that YouTube has been the king when it comes to video content, but as traditional programming continues to gravitate online, hulu is quickly establishing itself as the leader in that on-demand arena.

I talked to Steve Scaia tonight and he shared with me the exciting news that he and writing partner Matt Federman started on Warehouse 13 this week. He also gave me a couple of links to stories about the show.

Demographically speaking the online and the linear TV worlds are somewhat inverted in respect to age. CBS recently made the observation that their online viewer base is of a somewhat younger demographic, while their linear TV demographic is of a somewhat older demographic. In fact, the age values are almost flip-flopped percentages of each other.

Just as CBS chief executive Les Moonves was putting the best face on his company's $12.5 billion third-quarter loss Thursday, the Commerce Department declared the U.S. economy DOA on a 3% annual decline in consumer spending and a negative GDP. There is no way a pure-play, advertising-dependent CBS can escape more deadening blows based on where things are headed.
