A new hope for Jericho?

Photobucket

Edna:  Margie, I just found something on the Internet, I think you'd best come over here and listen to this. Do you remember when that film crew was in Jericho a few years back, making that documentary about us townfolk?  I'm sure you do, I definitely remember how much you complained that they focused too much on the Green family (especially that scandalous Jake Green!) and not enough on the rest of us.

Margie: Edna, those folks came here and made a big commotion but did they put you and me on the TV? No, and we've lived here longer than anybody else. We ARE Jericho. Nuts!

Edna:  I think we'd better take some steps to make sure we're included this time.  I don't know about you, but I'm going to go out and buy a new hat. The flashier the better, maybe that will attract some attention during filming.  Plus, I'm going to write a letter to that Mr. Netflix, whoever he is. Plead our case directly, so to speak.

Margie: Great idea! I think I'll wear my new hat that has the big fish on it. Do write him a letter and we'll enclose a picture of me. He won't be able to refuse us then for sure!

News broke last week on various online media outlets (TV Guide and The New York Times, among others) that Netflix may be picking up Jericho in order to resume filming the TV series that originally aired on CBS. We were tickled to hear the news, because Jericho is a show that we both hold near and dear to our hearts.  This is partly because we both participated in the original fight for the second season, but it's also because Jericho is how and why we became friends in the first place.  We would love for Jericho to get another chance, and fans are mobilizing to help Netflix to fully appreciate what a devoted fandom Jericho already has.  If you're interested in becoming involved, we suggest you check out SavingJericho.com for resources and suggestions on how to let your voice be heard.

Firefly and Fillion

Photobucket


Margie: Apparently fans are mobilizing to help Nathan Fillion raise funds to buy the rights to Firefly. Have at it, folks!  


Edna:  Margie, you'd best dig into your coin purse. This sounds like a cause we can get behind!

Fillion Friday: Captain Tightpants

Edna: All right folks, I promise this will be the last Fillion Friday. I just couldn't let them go completely without one more installment.

You know, I'd heard people talking for years about Captain Tightpants and the TV show Firefly, but I've never watched it before until recently. NOW I see what all the fuss was about! This was the show whose fans rallied after its cancellation to get closure for the series, ultimately resulting in the movie Serenity (and giving hope to Jericho fans everywhere). From now on, you can call me Edna "Browncoat" Callahan.


Quite frankly, I'm surprised Margie hasn't stolen my Firefly dvds yet, considering it has Nathan Fillion and cowboys (two of her favorite things). Granted, they're
space cowboys, but still. Take a gander at this fan-made video below and enjoy.
