The Freaking Big September/October Push
Welcome to the Resistance. Today, we fight back.
The Freaking Big Push is a massive campaign directed at Warner Brothers to demonstrate our love for the show and convince the WB to bring it back. According to a loyal, anonymous source, there is talk of a DVD movie. It’s our objective to convince the WB to make sure this happens. The campaign is broken down into various missions which will each launch on a specific date throughout the month. We can’t stress enough how important it is that everyone do these things on the same day. The only way to make a real impact is with strong numbers, pushing each avenue together on a daily basis, together.
Check out the calendar for the dates and scroll down for summaries of each mission.

Note Regarding Weekends: We’re going to change things up for the Push and make viewing parties back to back on the weekends; that’s one viewing party each day for the weekend. See calendar for viewing schedule.

Craigslist redux. They’re easy and they’re FREE. People in cities all around the world use it every day to post and view classifieds, personal ads and more.

Just be sure to make it clear that each post is an ad for T:SCC and won’t be mistaken for a legitimate offer.

Postcard Day!
Just print out one of our pre-made postcards – or make your own if you’re so inclined – write a message supporting the show on the back, stick a stamp on and drop it in the mailbox. Or, if you want to make it even easier, use an online mailing service like Click2Mail or Premium Postcard, where all you have to do it upload the postcard image you want, provide addresses, and they’ll handle the printing and mailing for you. It’s fairly cheap and an easy way to participate.

Season Three DVD Message Blitz to WB
Yes, it’s kind of a mouthful. But it’s simple, we promise. Just take a blank DVD case (one…two…a hundred…you can buy them at most office supply stores or DVD retailers), print out our cover artwork – or make your own. Combine. And voila! A graphic, symbolic message of what we want. Flood the WB mailroom with them…one…ten…boxfuls…
The artwork is made to fit standard DVD covers perfectly (that’s 10.75 in. x 7.25 in.) so all you need to do is print it out as-is and trim off the excess.
Date: October 7th – 10th and October 19 – 20

Letter Day!
We think the WB mailroom could use another flood of letters, don’t you? Just take a sheet of paper, and write a letter to the WB, explaining why you think the show deserves to live on. Pop it in an envelope, stick a stamp on it, and drop it in the mailbox. See? Simple. If you need help, we have a sample letter here that you can use to jump start you.
