    It was an "ok" finale. Would have loved a 2 hour finale tho.

    The way it ended sure makes way for another season... I know its beyond wishful thinking, but there is still so much story that could be told. Perhaps there is some interest from other networks that no one is talking about?

    (more wishful thinking lol)

    Please personalize your letter with your thoughts about Jericho and why you watch.

    Lets let Sci-Fi know we are here.

    Thanks to all for your efforts.

    Can be addressed to:

    Remember you have to send these snail mail.

    Example of the letter that I am sending (you can adapt this to your own style if you choose)

    Hello,

    It is with the utmost humbleness that I write this letter to your network with a request. As you have posted previously on your website, a show with a ‘cult-like’ fanbase behind it has been cancelled. It’s a show that a lot of people have a lot of faith in, despite their differences and even cultural and racial lines. The show is Jericho.

    I know the show has two strikes against it, being cancelled twice, but it’s a show that is a great fit for your network. Not only do its plotlines go beyond conventional television, but its fans do too. Many of us fans were not counted amongst the traditional Nielsen network ratings, but as a whole, while the ratings were not on par for traditional network television, they would have been very good for a cable network, particularly one that thinks beyond tradition.

    Sci-Fi Channel has always been a station that goes beyond conventional thinking and conventional television. Your versions of Battlestar Galactica and the Stargate series have been nothing short of visionary. The pure fact that you already possess the rights to air the already run episodes on your channel just enhances that image. I ask that you consider continuing that vision by stepping forth and acquiring the rights to continue airing this show as a first run series on your network. It’s just a natural fit; a revolutionary series for a revolutionary network, backed by a group of revolutionary fans.

    As a group of fans, we are asking for another chance for our show to live, and in particular, on your network. I ask that you not pass up this chance to give this show one last life, one that it couldn’t find in its present home, but could find with you. Jericho was always too intense for regular network TV, and as a avid fan, I feel that it would have a great home on your network. Look at the numbers, look at the passion of the fans that continue to support it and yet are never counted. The online support of the show is immense, and this is a show that has never truly been given a fair chance. It is our hope that your network will be the one to give it that chance.

    You have a guaranteed viewer in me, and I am sure that others will attest to the same thing. All that we ask as a fandom, and all that I ask as an individual is that you give this show a fair chance, and allow Jericho to have a true chance to shine in an environment that is more receptive to it. Jericho needs to be in an environment that thinks beyond the traditional box, and the Sci Fi Channel, is a channel that truly does think beyond the traditional TV box. Please pick up Jericho, and give this show a chance to become part of a true visionaries dream.

    Anyone notice how "close to home" Jericho is? I am far from being a conspiracy theorist, but I can't help but think there is more behind the cancellation than "poor" ratings. And did you like how Constantino's "This isn't going to happen overnight, or a week...it could take years" sounded rather familiar? I'm just saying.

    I've been surfing around at the different "Jericho" websites tonight and I have to say it is just AMAZING what a huge grassroots and international 'Save Jericho' effort is going on.They are hoping that it will be picked up and continued They are doing polls at the Sci-Fi Forum and other sites and writing letters and sending postcards to CBS and to the Sci-Fi channel, etc..
    It is so neat to see so many people rally around this great show! I've sent 3 letters out myself so far to the different execs at the Sci-Fi station.
    I't going to be cool to see if this huge effort makes a difference!
