To let you know about petitions, they go into the trash can. Every single one in history has been trashed withuot reading.

You want results, letter writing campaign. Hundreds of billions of letters.

Processing that mail costs money and the studios know that.

Thank Bjo Trimble for proving that.

A little update, I found this tidbit to be interesting....

"Hot off the press from our source in the US!!
Stargate is to return for a seventh season on the US Sci Fi channel network. After months of speculation Stargate has been given the green light. Whilst details remain sketchy it appears that most of the cast will be returning. There appears to be no confirmation yet on whether Richard Dean Anderson will make more than a few guest starring appearances. This follows his statement earlier this year of his intention to semi retire from the world of acting to concentrate on his environmental activities.

The seventh season has come at a high cost for Sci Fi channel, they seem to have sacrificed there widely acclaimed series Farscape to help pay for the cost of Stargate SG-1, estimated at $1.3 million an episode.

There also appears to be a renewed interest in a spin off series. "

Bring back the Doctor! Doctor Who... with out the stupid fox treatment. Half human?!?!

Why doesn't Sci Fi show Blake's Seven and Doctor Who? I'd watch if they would show all the great british Sci Fi. They could even throw Red Dwarf in the mix.

Hear!! Hear!! I'd love to see a new updated Version of Doctor Who. I must admit I kind of liked that "stupid fox treatment", but making him half-human would kind of explain why he's always meddling in human affairs and has a human or two for sidekicks. But if they do make a new Doctor Who, I hope they have someone who will make sure that all of the script writers keep to the same bible. It seemed like every time there was a new Doctor, that once he went into a future earth society, it was always different from the Last Doctor's visit. Of course, with as much interference into the timeline as the Doctor did, it's not surprising we would see different futures.

Also, I'd love to see more of Red Dwarf. I think that is one of the funniest shows I've ever seen. And they say the Brits don't have a sense of humor! The only thing that would the show more enjoyable would be to know what all of the slang terms they use. I can understand most of what they say, but sometimes something is said that makes me scratch my head and say "Huh?". Does anyone know if there was any more seasons after season 8? I have 1-7 on tape, and even though I want to buy the 8th season, I heard they are finall going to put Red Dward on dvd. So I'm anxiously waiting for that event to happen. Does anyone know anything more about this?
