News from 23rd August 2007/Germany
Production Manager Torsten Nobst of Paramount Germany announced the people of serienfans.tv last week, that there WILL BE a german Jericho DVD.
Yesterday (Wednesday) the Team of Jericho-TV.de had the chance to talk to Torsten Nobst. He told us that it ISNT planned to release a german Jericho DVD. Paramount Germany is going to release the german version of the DVD, only if there are orders from the American Mother company and that didn't happen yet.
So the Jericho-TV.de team made another petition to get us the DVD as soon as possible...
We would be really glad if you could help us again and sign the petition.
"Jericho' Fans Flock To Kansas For Convention"
"There may be no real Jericho, Kansas ... but at least for this weekend, Oakley is close enough."
"Q. ABC has signed Lost for another three seasons but what night is it going to be airing? According to the TV commercials, Wednesday's lineup is booked. Same thing goes for Jericho. I am a loyal fan of both shows. — R.A.G., Hollywood
A. Neither ABC nor CBS has locked in a time period for Lost and Jericho, respectively. Don't fret over fully booked lineups. Neither of your favorites is scheduled to return until midseason and there will be cancellations galore within weeks of the start of the official Nielsen season on Sept. 24. ABC has three new series penciled in on Wednesday, the most likely night for Lost's return. History teaches that an all-new night almost never works, because there is no established series to bring traffic to the network. Jericho has only a seven-episode order, so CBS has many options, including using it as a buffer between the two editions of Survivor. I'm not saying this is the plan but it is one of the options."
Greetings to all Jericho Fans in Germany
I received this note from a German fan (Ryo) today:
"It's very important for us to see the series on TV. Unlike in the states, there is no DVD release scheduled in Germany."
They need the DVD over there too! Look at his website and click on the flag for English.
Also, Greetings to all Jericho fans in Australia.
Here's an article from over there:
"Viewers left in the dark"
It says, in part,
"It begs the question, what would it take for network executives to peek out from behind their ratings charts and stop counting their advertising dollars and check out what us viewers have to say?
Surely it shouldn't take a pile of nuts to effect some change . . .
So we here at AdelaideNow are handing the power over to you: if you were in charge of any one given network what programming peeve would you like to see changed?"
I'll ask the same question now. What programming peeve would you like to see changed?
Just leave a comment.
Greetings to fans of Jericho in Canada:
I asked a Canadian fan today what Canadians want when it comes to Jericho. He said, "We want to be counted." This, he said, means by Innertube or Nielsen."
His reasoning is sound. He says, "Montreal is about 45 min from the N.Y. border and we all watch American networks. I watch Jericho on W.C.A.X- Vermont and we see an ad that says.."If you have missed any CBS show, go to CBS.com and watch "...(innertube) When I try, A message pops up and says sorry, It's for U.S. viewers only!!!!! This just ticks me right off!!!"
It would make me mad too because like he adds, "So many Canadian dollars are spent in places such as Plattsburg N.Y. or Burlington VT. There are buses that leave here just to take you shopping in these cities. When it comes to T.V. sorry you don't count!!!! It's not like I am on the other side of the world!!!"
Come on, CBS. They can watch on American TV, buy the products you advertise, and can't be counted or use Innertube. Where do you see "CBS Cares" in that?
Jericho is loved around the world. Imagine having the hardships to see it that our fellow fans do.
The ratings for Jericho in Germany are falling. German Rangers need our help. They are especially interested in ideas for gaining new viewers.
Please go to the CBS Jericho board if you have ideas.
"The German TV station Pro7 is putting down Jericho for a break on August the 20nd.
We created a Petition because we know how this goes... so please please help us... that would be really nice. Let Jericho live in Germany!!!"
http://www.jericho-tv.de/petition/
The Text is saying:
"With this Petition we want to be heard that Jericho goes on without a break. Why isn't taking Pro7 the example from CBS that shows, going into a break causes harm to a great TV show? Its bad to give good TV Shows a break the ratings WILL go down and we wont have ANY WATCHERS in the end! So please help us!!!!!"
There is also a website and newsletter and more information.
Save Jericho again!
