Subject: Aussie fans target
Hi to all,
Firstly I would like to welcome my friend Jill Craig to the list. Jill is
hostess to our Brisbane Forever Knight parties. I don't know how she puts up
with us, but plans to do so again on 3rd Feb (e-mail me for details if you
plan to be in Bris then)Thanks Jill, and Welcome!
Our group here in Brisbane has been busy writing to TPTB overseas, but
perhaps we should now target channel 10 who have purchased the rights to
season 2(and subsequent seasons too, lets hope). I have made inquiries to
the Brisbane programming section of channel 10, but they were not
forthcoming with any information about upcoming programs, as they said it is
too early to give out that information. However, I did find out the name of
the programming manager for channel 10 and I believe she is the same person
responsible for getting the X-Files shown in prime time before there were
any signs of it becoming the success it is now.Perhaps we can thank her for
picking up Forever Knight, and give her lots of encouragement. Let her know
that there is already an audience for Forever Knight here in Australia,and
that we believe FK has the same potential for success as the X-Files if it
can get the right timeslot and promotions.What do you think?
Maybe we should also write to channel 9 and thank them for showing the
remainder of season 1. At least I hope they will, we are still getting eps
on Thursday nights. They were all out of order, but at least it looks like
we will see them all, with the exception maybe of Spin Doctor. Did any of
you in Sydney or Canberra ever get Spin Doctor?
Anyway the address: Ms. Christen Marlow,
GPO Box 10,
Sydney 2001
Hoping for many,many more Forever Knights

Nick sleeps in a bed (in black silk pajamas) with plenty of room
for Nat to join him in it the minute it becomes possible, as any
self-respecting member of this list can tell you in their sleep.
Lacroix's arrangements are a secret, as far as I know.
Vachon has a coffin in his church digs. My original take on it
was that it was there for a joke, since his humor definitely runs to
monster-movie ornate, but I'm beginning to think he's just sly enough to
sleep in it. Looks pretty uncomfortable, though it has that nice gothic
baroque feel. Anyone else give this any thought?

When I was a kid (yeah, in this century) many Catholic churches had fake
coffins (catafalques) for use during solemn Requiem Masses when a corpse was
not present. For example, all parishes had Requiem Masses for JFK and Pope
John XXIII. I can remember it being used in the early years of the Viet-Nam
conflict also. A real coffin can be very expensive (several thousand dollars)
and not the type of thing a parish would abandon. When a parish is closed, in
my area at least (Philadelphia Archdiocese), "TPTB" make sure it is stripped
of anything consecrated, valuable, or anything that could be re-used or
vandalized such as statues (Vachon's church still has statues in it).
There is a shot in the Canadian version of "Dying To Know You" of Nick "laid
out". It occurs when he and the psychic are searching the victims' house. She
opens an ornate box and has a flash of Nick in full vamp in a coffin.

Hi All! So nice to see that they got all of the info right in the article.
Hmmm, since when did FK take place in NYC? I was under the impression we
were in TO <sarcasm dripping>. Oh, and some good news (well, maybe)!! Iwas
watching that ...channel tonight (I'm trying to give the 'new & improved' SS

gonna perform a few libations today for their success (good thing I paid
attention in my Greek religion class <g>).
Also, as for puting up flyers; at colleges there are usually bulliton
boards where anyone can put a flyer (as opposed to the department specific
boards). If you're near a college, ya might want to check it out.
I'll be putting up the flyers here today (for once, I'm really regretting

As others have noted, we know that Nick sleeps either in his bed or on the
couch. (It's actually quite amusing when you see him on the couch with
his arms crossed vampire-style!) However, in a first season episode called
"Hunters," Schanke is hiding out from a killer in the Raven. He gets
curious and sneaks down into the basement where he sees a coffin. Janette
chases him out of the basement and then opens a cupboard door. In the
cupboard we see a female vampire hanging upside down, rather upset at
having her sleep disturbed. There may have been another vamp in the
coffin as well.
So... the answer to your question is that *some* vamps may sleep in
coffins or hang upside down in cupboards, but it's clearly not
necessary. It's probably just convenient to sleep in a place where the
sunlight cannot get in.
Hope that helps!

I have been off the list for several weeks due to illness but I thought I
would mention the following article that appeared in todays Wisconsin State
Journal. Any and all typos/misspellings are mine and not to be attributed
to the Wisconsin State Journal.
'FOREVER KNIGHT' felled by ratings
Knight-Ridder Newspapers
The vampire drama "Forever Knight" didn't scare up big ratings, so
cable's USA Network is dropping the show.
USA had been airing original episodes of the program, which revolved
around a vampire detective working in modern-day NYC, on Mondays at 9pm with
a repeat Tuesday night at 8.
USA dropped the Monday telecast as of last week. Two remaining
original episodes, and then only repeats will air in the Tuesday slot for
the "forseseeable" future, said a network spokesman.
The spokesman attributed the change to program's "low ratings."
USA's orginal episodes of the series averaged a 1.3 rating
(percentage of the 66 million home receiving the network), representing an
audience of about 842,000 homes. For comparioson, repeats of "silk
Stockings," which aired in the same MOnday slot prior to "Forever Knight,"
averaged a 2.5 rating or 1.6 million homes.
No surprise, USA is returning "Silk Stockings" to the Monday
schedule immediately.

Subject: Contacts
Okay, we now need help from the inside--and this especially applies to the
California and West Coast people.
1) Dreamworks is a no-go. Trust me on this. The few people who are there
say it wouldn't be an option and they wouldn't be interested. Amblin
entertainment is about an equal shot in hell--look what's happened with the
Doctor Who franchise. Yes, it's finally going through, but how many years
later and with a completely different cast and AMBLIN style. If we try to
pitch these guys and they accept, the horros of USA will be but a pinprick
compared with the torments of the damned these guys will subject us to.
2) Our best and brightest hope is UPN. Paramount won't have a vampire
series--WB and Fox DO. Does anyone know anyone in Paramount, from the mail
room up? We need some inside information and we need it pronto.
3) We need someone inside TriStar, again, from the mail room up. Anyone who
is unemployed want to see if they're hiring low level staff? I thought
about sending the Mercs in (ninja suits, rapelling down the side os the
building, etc.) but figured we should check out the other resources first.
FK runs about $700 thou per episode, which is HALF of what it costs for a
series like the X-File and about a third of the Trek or special effect
shows. That, plus the automatic audience, should interest somebody.
And we shouldn't be discouraged about Tri-Star NOT listing a 4th season of
FK. remember, those lists were made up two weeks ago. And when did we
REALLY start calling the Syndicators to remind them to ask for the show?
It's like the Boston Globe article--it mentions 2000 hits on Jamie's page,
which is well over 5000 now. What we'll be seeing in print is back-dated,
that's why it's taking so long for us to get the word out.
But the word IS getting out! So congratulations to all of those people who
have really put forth an effort here, from writing and making phone calls to
giving a part of their time or their blood to make this thing work!
Regards
When we get a fourth season, the hair GOES.

can to a homeless shelter or food pantry. *You* might not think Spam is
appetizing -- but it's ambrosia for someone who lives on the street and
hasn't eaten in three days. Or for that matter, when compared to
old-fashioned K-rations -- don't forget, Spam won WWII!
;-} (Why do you *think* it's so popular in Hawaii?? ;-} )
I just bought a can of Spam Lite myself (*ouch* -- $2.19 for a widdo can,
and 110 calories for 1/6 of that widdo can! and 8g of fat -- since I'm not
starving, this is definitely a condiment, NOT food -- like the baco-bits on
your salad) -- and I already use Pantene. Good stuff!
WFXT ran "Strings" last night!! Any Boston residents who got
frustrated and gave up, they *did* air it an hour and a quarter late, at
12:15, after the confusticated NFL Playoffs. Now I must get busy and write
them to express appreciation at seeing a new ep. I'm going to keep trying to
call them, too, despite its being late for NAPTE. (I thought "Strings" was a
very good ep, BTW. How can they be cancelling this show!)
Oh, yes -- "Jumanji" does NOT "stink"!!! I saw it twice and may see it
again! You may not *like* it. That's absolutely your perogative. But that
doesn't make it a bad film -- just a film that you didn't care for. If
there's no other Tristar offering that floats your boat, *I* recommend
"Jumanji". ;-} (Just close your eyes, eat your Spam, and think of
England... I mean, "Forever Knight"). And hey, you might like it, after
all. ;-}

Subject: UPN Contacts
The type of contacts I'm looking for at UPN are PERSONAL contacts, the
friend-of-a-friend type of thing.
Everywhere we go, we find people who like FK. The way our stats are coming
out, maybe we could find someone at UPN and Tri-Star?
Regards
When we get a fourth season, the hair GOES.

Neither stupid nor newbie, and something that probably a lot of you are

Both. Explain that it is because of SONY/TS APP DAY, part of Forever
Knight Appreciation Week. Or send them to the SOS po box, to be sent
in en masse.

Bravo! :-)

There's a chat at Remote Control at 11 pm NY time. Click on "Go To" in
the menu at the top, then on "Keyword"; then type in "tv gossip" then
click on "Remote Control", and you're in!
Btw, it looks like we're going to have a special FK guest (fingers
crossed) at that chat. :-)
Btw, if you want to go on earlier or later, go to "tv gossip", then
click on "primetime and latenight shows" then an "C-F" and you'll find
all the Forever Knight boards.
You can also send a nice note to Steve Case, Pres. of AOL, explaining
that you have signed on because of all the Forever Knight facilities
available on AOL and congratulating him for them. :-)
Hope that helps.

Subject: Need warm fuzzies!
Someone send me warm fuzzies!
I just spent 4 hours wandering around slushy downtown Philly arranging
gift baskets for two local television stations (so that both will ask for
FK at NATPE)! I suppose you all realize how hard it is to find anything
appropriately vampire-related -- even a bat! -- to put in those baskets.
Should have planned further ahead -- like in October when there were bat
things for sale everywhere. I ended up using a little plastic Count (you
know, the vampire muppet who counts all the time on "Sesame Street"). I
know, wrong network, but it gets the vampire theme across.
I also included chocolates & cookies since who doesn't like those? ;)
I made it very clear in the card that we'd love them to *ask* for a
fourth season of FK at NATPE. The card included everyone's name who
contributed. Thanks to Lynn Messing, Susan Garrett, and Elinor Lerner
for chipping in. I blew the budget but what the heck.
Time to relax now....

No, no. Anyone who calls gets it-- whether they had to go through
anguish and torment to do so or not :-)
