Dan Shotz's comment was "Unreal. Need to find out what they are doing about it".

Jericho Restoration Update
Hi Rangers,
The unexpected news that the Jericho novel is sold out on both Amazon and IDW comes at just the right time. We are just five weeks away from WonderCon and that is the con we have been waiting for. For those new to the campaign:
At Comic Con 2011, IDW told us that the announcement about Jericho was postponed, but would most likely be made at the next con.
On January 8th, I notified Dan Shotz that I was telling the fans the above statement and asked him to let me know if this statement was no longer valid. As of today, Dan Shotz, has not not responded to that question, but has responded to other questions.
I do not know the nature of the announcement, however; I do believe we will get more than another comic/graphic novel.
Jericho in 2012!!!

Jericho Wikipedia articles need rescuing
At the moment, every episode of Jericho, found at Wikipedia has its own article. <<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Jericho_episodes>>
Several of these are quite elaborate; however most are only plot recaps, with no sourced information about production, reception, reviews, or any third party sources.
If the articles are not brought up to standard, they probably will be removed soon. They need work to add real-world references and citations -- not from fan sites, but cites to "respectable" media , newspapers, books, etc. Anyone who can spend the time please take a look.
So, one last time: What the Wikipedia episode articles need are respectable references: books, newspapers, big websites. Not blogs or forums or wikias.

Blow up the CBS Facebook Page
Tumara Gosnell posted this on SaveJericho.info:
Find the CBS facebook page and blow up their page. Every day, every hour as much as you can post bring back Jericho on their Facebook page.
I say the best attempt is by taking it to their front door. It forces them to look at it. It forces them recognize that were not going away, and anyone that is subscribed to their page will see whats going on and become curious and watch the original episodes and hopefully create a Jericho craze larger then before.
A great idea; thank you Tumara.
Today through the February 20th, we would like you to blow up the CBS Facebook Page.
Located here: <<http://www.facebook.com/CBS>>
Post about Jericho as often as you can; posts can be long or short.

Legend of the Seeker Fans Need Help
The Save Our Seeker campaign has been on for nearly two years, and wouldn't have accomplished what it has without you. It's NOT over.
An industry insider has told SaveOurSeeker.com that Legend of the Seeker Executive Producer Ken Biller, more than anyone else, is the one that we need to encourage to fight to bring back the series.
We've never written to Mr. Biller before, and he needs to understand just how hard the fandom has worked to bring the show back and how much they still want it nearly two years later.
It would be great if you could take a few minutes to send him a postcard, or greeting card, or a letter.
And if do write to him, you'll be eligible to enter the new Save Our Seeker contest and win a grand prize - a hand crafted sterling silver Sword of Truth pendant graciously donated by Terry Goodkind in support of a letter writing contest. For the contest rules, please visit <<http://bit.ly/JBC-KenB>>.
Below is Mr. Biller's mailing address:

The Save Our Seeker campaign has helped out the Jericho Fan Table, so we hope you have a few minutes to send a letter on their behalf. - Gwen
