Subject: opportunities

If there is no 4th season, and the series is stripped, preferrably at times
when people other than dedicated fans are likely to see it, then it is likely
that *a lot* of new fans will be brought across, swelling the ranks of those
who want very badly for there to be a 4th season and more.  Gloom and doom is
not called for just yet.

When Star Trek returned for its 3rd season, I was starting my freshman year
at Ohio State.  Almost invariably I would have the dorm tv all to myself
every week;  I never missed Star Trek because anyone wanted to watch
something else.  Not that many people watched the original series compared to
the numbers who consider themselves fans today, certainly not that many
women.

We will have to get behind whatever format the series becomes
stripped--syndicated, USA, or other network--and make sure potential fans
know about one of the best series ever made.  Remember, we'll have *1st
season* eps to being them across with--no more coaxing newbies into watching
hopeless 3rd season hours ignoring the central characters, and explaining
that the series really isn't like this...no, people will be able to see just
how good FK could be.

Should this scenario hold true, the *next* campaign to being FK back will
have an even larger fan base.  Think about that.  Certainly this is reason
enough to stay on-list.

Subject: Re: FORKNI-L Digest - 21 Feb 1996 - Special issue

another point about FK (saving it I mean) to the person who quoted Winston
Churchill,
        "We are all worms, but I ... I am a glowworm" _WC
Does this have any relevance? Of course not, but I've been waiting to use this
quote for so long ... and if we really try hard I'm sure we can make it fit
FK ... um all execs are worms, except FK execs which of course are glowworms.
hmph. any suggestions for a better interpretation?

Btw, with all these factions for romance between Nat&LC etc et al would anybody
mind my proposing my own suggestion for a pairing?
feel free to flame if this is not appropriate

how about Lacroix and Vachon?


<ducking>


Does anybody see LaCroix having a very amusing time at Mardi Gras (think
a mask and a very *wide* grin as he strolls Bourbon Street); what would Vachon
be doing? Nick? Janette?

Nick: would be hiding in a corner somewhere mumbling to himself, "Why cant they
stop *tempting* me and sucking on cow juice frantically."
Vachon would probably be joining in the frivolity wholeheartedly while trying to
keep an eye on Urs. Screed would probably be sucking on a rat while hopping up
and down in the corner mumbling, "It's almost better then Guy fawkes day"
Janette would be holding court in a corner of the riot while people would be
baring their wrists for her.

\okok im *very* tired. anybody have better ideas?

Subject: who will stay on

I know this may be one of those me-too kind of posts, but here goes.  While
the show is the catalyst to our conversations - being a fan of a TV show has
always been about the people you meet (even in the pre internet world).
While the show may discontinue production I see no reason why we have to
discontinue being members of the list.  Ok - maybe on topics will become a
little broader - but I do not see this as a problem.

I have become friends with people on this list - and with one person in
particular we talk about far more than just FK.  So, my point is, that while
I came here because of the show - I continue to be here because of the
people on the list.

In addition I beleive we have 70 or so episodes that have been made - I
never dicussed any of the first season or first few of the second season on
this list - and I suspect I am not alone.

Starting at the begining of that 70 and taking one a week - whew - it could
take awhile!!!!

In addition there will always be fan fiction and upcomming novels (which I
have on good authority are still being written - not from TBTB but from the
person writing one - I can say no more - not because I am being criptic but
because I promised:-)

I had a thought - would it be a good idea to write to the company publishing
the novels and illustrate our support of the idea???!!!

My point is that fandom is more about the people you meet than the show
itself and if the people do not go anywhere then the list will still have
the things I signed on for.

On a brighter note - no one will screw up and post a spoiler wrong:-)

Talk to ya all later,
Shanda

Subject: Michael Praed/Vachonlike vampire movie?

        I'll take my Vachon any way I can get him right now, so what is
the name of this movie, please?  Two people have posted that there is a
film with Praed looking Vachonish playing a vampire but neither mentioned
the name.  I'm going to sit far away from the TV set and Pretend.

        Also, did anyone succeed in finding the German FK homepage with
the alleged good photo of Vachon??  I couldn't, but I'm very new to the
Web.  I searched "Vachon" on Lycos and came up with one jpeg and a whole
lot of stuff about hockey--  which I like, mind you, but it's just not
the same.  (Wonder if that goalie could be persuaded to grow his hair out
and dye it black...  is this the voice of desperation I hear?)

Since she is only going to be in this area during the week, the party will

She is bringing the German copies of first season FK with her.  Yum!  Yum!
Wish I could understand German.

Any who wish to come, contact me.  It'll be fun.  We'll have pizza, Ribena,

Hey, Gang!

I've been nomail for a few days due to real life business; but never fear, it's
only temporary!  I'm sure it will happen again in the future but never
permanently.  I love this group and don't see myself leaving it any time in the
near future.

I think the idea of weekly fan-written scripts as topics for discussion is
great!  Also, if there is anyone that is familiar will the *600+* fanfics that
have already been written, perhaps they could choose some of those that are
written like an episode.

According to my Japanese mother, you send 1000 cranes as a sort of prayer or

Hiroshima, though I can see why they would have lots of prayers there.

Being a Merc is almost as much fun as being a Natpacker.  Except during
wartime: at which point, being a Merc is more fun, while being a Natpacker
is... interesting.  Being a Cousin, on the other hand, is almost always
dangerous.  Intriguing, but dangerous.  Whereas being a Natpacker is
dangerous in a wholly different way...

Example: In the last war, the Mercs got CERK, the Natpack got drugged...
and the Cousins, as I recall, got confused.

Subject: Knightie Sweatshirts

Jaye has graciously allowed me to post this message regarding Knightie
sweatshirts.

I had sweatshirts created for the Knighties and am now offering to order these
shirts for anyone else interested.  These had previously been offered to the
Knighties on the special Knightie loop that Perri keeps.  I've had inquiries
from folks who saw the shirts and liked them, so I thought I'd try another
run.  I cannot do this indefinitely though.

The shirts are 85/15, white with jade and navy stripes on the collar, cuffs and
waistband.  Sorry, they don't come in other colors.  The logo is on the front
left breast of the shirt.  It's a stylized Toronto skyline with the words
Forever Knightie and the list address.  I can order any sizes needed, but I
need an order of at least 24 before I can go back to my vendor.  This means I
need 24 actual checks.  I can't afford to order shirts up front and then get
stuck with them.  I still have CERK t-shirts.  I do not make a profit on these
shirts.

The shirts run very large.  As a reference, those of you who saw me wearing the
shirt in Toronto this past weekend saw a size Large.  I usually order XL's,
because I like them big, but the large was more than enough.  I also washed the
shirt already, so it shrank a little, but not much (just don't set the dryer on
high).

The shirts are really nice, if I do say so myself.  Some other list members
have already ordered theirs so you can ask them if you like them.

If you would like to order a shirt, please contact me via private e-mail at
feden@m........  DO NOT POST TO THE LIST.  Jaye will get mad at me and she was
so nice to let me do this in the first place.

How does a deadline of March 15th sound to everyon?

The prices are as follows:

S,M,L,XL  =  $35
XXL       =  $38

Shipping is about $3.00 each.  If you order multiple shirts please include
extra postage.  I don't know what shipping is to Canada.  I believe I'll have
them shipped out by the vendor so I don't have to lug boxes to the post
office.

But, this is my opinon here, if FK got a primetime slot or one in the

People with cross affiliations usually choose which faction they'll hang
with at the beginning of the war.  But they can be sympathetic to both,
even during a war, or can switch in the middle, or... :)  The

I didn't see Susan Schaefer's original post, so I hope I'm not grossly
misattributing Susan's words when she says the novel deal is "off"-- but...
when I spoke with Ginjer Buchanan, the Executive Editor of Science Fiction &
Fantasy at Berkeley Publishing two weeks ago, the FK novel deal was still on.

Three novels are included in the first deal, with one proposal approved so far
(not sure who got it, but I heard-- unsubstantiated rumour-- that it was Susan
Sizemore, better known for her time-travel historical romances).

The first novel was due to be published this summer, but everything is going
<far> more slowly on the approval process than first anticipated, so I believe
they're now planning on a publishing date of early 1997.

Apparently the main reason for the delay is that each novel proposal has to go
through a rather complicated set of approvals, with Ginjer vetting the first
round, followed by licensor approvals at the TriStar and Paragon levels, with
Jim Parriott getting the final 'yea' or 'nay' on each proposal.

I don't know what episode, and in fact I have never seen it, but I have been
told by those more FK-educated than I that the ep involved Nick fighting in
the Battle of Hastings.  Now this would not be so odd in and of itself,
seeing as how Nick is a Knight and all.  However, the Battle of Hastings took
place in 1066, and Nick was not brought across until 1228.  I'm pretty sure
he wasn't 160 years old at the time. ;)  Woulda been neat, and somewhat more
plausible, had it been Janette in the frontlines instead of Nick. ;)

Why wouldn't it be appropriate? ;)  People talk about all possible hetero
pairings (tho I think we were scraping the bottom of the barrel with Tracy
and Lacroix!), so why not some other pairings?  Of course, I shall always
believe that the perfect pair is Nick and Lacroix, and I don't even mean
sexually (well maybe I do, but this ain't the right list!).  Think Daisy and
Gatsby, Rhett and Scarlet, Cathy and Heathcliff, etc etc.  We all KNEW
Scarlet didn't belong with Ashley!  (Oh gawd I'm really showing my southern
roots, ain't I.)  I'm not quite sure who'd wear the hoop skirts in my perfect
pair...  But it's fun to ponder!

Not only am I wicked, I am also warped!  So is there a faction that believes
as I do?  Is there one that believes as Toni does?

Wars, organized? <raised eyebrow> I'm sorry to be the one to inform you;
but, whether it is in fiction or reality, there is no such thing as an
organized war. As far as infighting, there's some of that; but, you don't
survive nearly as well when you screw over the person watching your back.

I hope this is fo help.

Right on both counts.  It was kind of weird, actually, because I noticed

Laura,

I believe the name of the movie you are looking for is "To Die For 2".  It's
available on video tape.  It's a sequel to another movie by with another
actor in the same role. Despite the fact that the two vampires in the file
vanished in puffs of smoke.  Actually one was stake and the other walked
into the sun.   The interesting thing about this movie and the prequel is
that with the exception of the lead actor which was taken over by Michael
Praed, all the other actors from the previous movie came back as the same
characters.

Do a search on FOREVER KNIGHT.   That will bring up a lot of different
references one of which is the german web site.

Oh.


ObFK:  You Know you are waay into Forever Knight too much when you hear the
television talking about conquistadors and you half expect Vachon to show up.

Feeble I know, but it's all I could come up with.  Back to sleep.

Some "suit" put boxing back on for 2 hours on Tuesdays.  They used the
pretense that they were responding to letters from viewers.  I think we all
know what a load of "El Toro Crapo Grande" that is.

Just got my cable guide for March.  It shows FK back at it's original
Monday night slot and on Thursday nights at 11:00 (Mountain time).  I hope
it's right!  (Frankly, I have my doubts about this one...)

Subject: Knights of the List

Please forgive the slow response (I'm on digest), but I like the idea of a
title to unify us Knighties.  I don't mind the title "Dame" although for some
reason it seems to imply *age* to me.  Being one of the elders on the list, I
suppose I could carry the title with grace (not to imply the younger
Knighties couldn't if they wanted to).  Question:  While it is quite
acceptable to declare ourselves Knighties, is it proper to declare ourselves
*knights*?

On another note, I for one intend to continue lurking on the list for a long
time to come.  You people brighten my day.  Besides, if FK goes away for good
(God forbid!), where else would I get my daily fix?  BTW, I really like the
idea of a story/script of the week to discuss.  One way or another we'll keep
FK alive!

Subject: Questions, Comments, etc.

'Allo, fellow listmembers. (I'm off-topic in the beginning, but, hey, bear
with me.)  Here's the deal.  I'm on a committee that is interested in
bringing in a actor from one of the Star Trek series to K-State next year
for a lecture. (Personally, I'm holding out for Brent Spiner. Helllooo,
Mr. Data! ;9 )  In conjunction with the lecture, we're looking into
holding a mini convention as well.  Unfortunately, no one on the committee
has ever had the opportunity to go to one of these things.  So, I
figured, why not pick the brains of those of you out there lucky enough
to be able to attend?  Tell me (privately, o' course), what do you like to
see at conventions? (OK, I mean besides NB or GWD)(or AP, or SK for that
matter) We're thinking of door prizes, blooper reels, merchandise, films,
you get the picture.  Thanks in advance for the info!

On to more important things:

What is the name of the piece Nick is playing on the piano in the 1st
season ep, I Will Repay?  It sounds familiar, but I can't place it.

Last day of filming. <sniff>  But only for now, right? (Hope springs
eternal.  I mean, the execs at Tri Star or USA can't outsmart us.  And they
certainly won't out last us.  All together, can we say, 'persistence'?)
(OK, maybe 'bloody-minded obstinate refusal to allow FK to go' is more
accurate, but 'persistence' is easier to get several hundred people to
say in sync.)

And as for this list, of course this lurker will remain on!
