What are you giving your favorite B5 character? I bought some Rogaine for Garibaldi. ------------------ God be between you and harm in all the empty places you must walk.

I never was a frequent poster but lately have found myself just "lurking" here, reading the post, but without much to say. I suspect that there are others like me still in shock from the events of September 11. But what a treat it is to read your post and see the trailers! We all look forward...

Re: JoeD, you\'re my hero! I was getting ready to start a thread called "Where have you gone Joe D?" Good to see you posting again, Joe! ------------------ God be between you and harm in all the empty places you must walk.

I only started this thread because some people were getting depressingly negative. But I love Channe's idea of forming a "Wait Wathcers" group. Do we have to weigh in once a week? Do we get recipes? ------------------ God be between you and harm in all the empty places you must walk.

Here are some quotes from various recent Ranger stories: "Do you already have a new five year story arc?" Part I of JMS interview Revue Magazine "There is alway a multi-year story arc involved." JMS The buzz about "The Rangers" new show gets a 9 out of 10 by Cinescape. "We want to invite the...

Can't wait. Can't wait. Can't wait!!! (I know what FX refers to but what exactly does it mean?) ------------------ God be between you and harm in all the empty places you must walk.

Yesterday I read (on another board) that the Ranger movie will be shown on January 2 not January 1. I know there was concern because of all the football games on January 1. Sorry - I wasn't able to find it quickly this morning and am just getting ready to leave. I think it was on ISN or...

In last Sunday's New York Times (Augsut 26) there is an article entitled "The Sci Fi Channel Seeks New Life Beyond Its Niche." You can read this article by going to New York Times - you have to register - but it's free. When the NY Times first page comes up look for search box right under...

Re: I do not understand SCI-FI\'s reluctance Not to belabor the point but if any pilot is promoted then the initial showing is likely to have a large audience. I know that Joe D. said on another thread that they tract a show and see if people tune out half way through, etc. But if a show is...

Is broadcasting a show and looking at ratings the primary way TV stations make decisions? Do they ever use other means such as showing it to a test audience - sneak previews, etc. - the way some movies do? By using other testing methods they might be able to proceed with contracts for the...

Modane posted above: "40 years ago only about 1 household on a regular street had a TV." Actually, a great majority of people had a TV 40 years ago. It was in the very early 50's when maybe 1 household per street had a TV. The original Star Trek was in the late 60 - I believe it started in...

Actually, I wasn't thinking about starting a writing campaign before the Ranger movie airs. And, I can see that there are many factors involved in the decision whether to go forward with a series or not. I was asking, theoretically, if fans can influence networks. I can see that the answer is...

Re: Rangers - can fans affect decisions? 1. Does anyone know if B5 fans had any input on the decision to continue B5 for a fifth season? If yes - how? 2. And, does letter writing ever make a difference? ------------------ God be between you and harm in all the empty places you must walk.

I also saw the ad on the TV Guide Channel right after B5 and it definitely said January 1. (New Year's Day is on a Tuesday this year - not on a weekend.) ------------------ God be between you and harm in all the empty places you must walk.

I don't read all the post but the last I heard was that Rangers would be on Sci Fi in January. Acording to the article they said this fall! When will it be on? ------------------ God be between you and harm in all the empty places you must walk.

Thanks for the explanation. It's interesting to try to understand how 'they' determine what shows will be on. But I still find it hard to believe that a show like John Edwards can make Sci Fi top 10 list. I guess the fact that B5 has been shown many times is the reason it's not on the list...

Thanks Joe for clearing up the population numbers! What does the 1.0 rating mean in numbers for the Farscape series (week of 7/9 - 7/15)? And, I see John Edwards (with a program that is on all the time) has a .8 number for the same week. What numbers does a movie (RANGERS) need to be...

Thanks, Chai for the info on the Sci Fi messageboard. I checked it out and found that it was a B5 messageboard. I had hoped they had a general Sci Fi messageboard where we might convert Sci Fi fans to B5LR fans. Well it was a thought. ------------------ God be between you and harm in all...

So, the SciFi Channel is in 70 million households. Do you know what percentage of the 70 million households needs to be tuned in for a program to be considered a success? For instance, what are the ratings for the continuing series Farscape? Does the Sci Fi Channel have an official Message...
