Send Dresden Files "Dresdentines" To SFC/NBC!

We're sending Dresden Love to the Sci-Fi & NBC Execs for Valentine's Day!

Write the cards from yourself or be imaginative and make them 'from' a character from The Dresden Files TV series! Send more than one!
* Tell them you love TDF.
* Ask them to take advantage of Lionsgate's deal with the WGA (Writer's Guild Of America) and start production on Season 2 while nearly everything else is in repeats.
* Tell them you want Sci-Fi Channel to be successful.
* Ask for Season 2!

Start sending them NOW. The Execs are buying Internet series, 'reality' TV, and series from Canada and need to be reminded constantly about the fantastic, quality series they already own - the Dresden Files!

Mr. Dave Howe, President
NBC Universal/Sci-Fi Channel

Have You Signed The Dresden Files Renewal Petition?

This is just a reminder;

After you've sent those letters and postcards (you have sent some, haven't you?), please take a moment and sign the our renewal petition. This will serve as yet another way to let Lionsgate Television know that fans continue to anxiously await and support a second season of The Dresden Files.

Then go and send just one more letter!

New Sci Fi Channel President

"Dave Howe has been beamed up to prexy of Sci Fi Channel, with longtime Sci Fi chief Bonnie Hammer stepping back from day-to-day control of the channel she helped build into a basic cable powerhouse."

With this in mind, new letters concerning The Dresden Files renewal should now be sent to Dave Howe instead of Bonnie Hammer:

Dresden Files Anniversary Letter Campaign

January 21, 2008 is the 1st Anniversary of The Dresden Files premiere!

In honor of this date, we want to send TPTB (The Powers That Be, execs at Sci-Fi/NBC, etc.) a reminder that they will be unable to ignore: Thousands of letters from all over the world delivered in several giant shipments!!

Here's what we do: Take a photo of ourselves, our friends, our family, or even our pets with our TDF DVD - include our location and name (optional) in the shot. If you've made a TDF t-shirt, wear it! Then, include it in the letters for the Anniversary Campaign.

Show them we're people, we're REAL, we're HERE, we buy DVD's, & we want The Dresden Files back!

We need every fan to write at least one letter and to send their letters to the volunteer Dresden Files fan that lives the closest to them:

Debbie Karimullah
DCK Virtual Office Services
PO Box 820082
Houston, TX 77282-0082

Teresa Blanchard
c/o Cruises Inc.
30 Lincoln Avenue
Danbury, CT 06810

(At least 1 more to be added soon)

And for those who want to e-mail their letters (Please put Anniversary Letter in the Subject line):

Patru:
htrunick@neo.rr.com

Zarina
justrenewit@gmail.com

These volunteer fans will gather all the submitted letters, pack them in boxes, and ship them all together to TPTB on January 21st.

The more letters received, the more impressive our 'voice' and the harder we will be to ignore!

Start now!
The letters will be held by the volunteers and compiled into several impressive shipments!!

Letters should be addressed to Ms. Bonnie Hammer, President Sci-Fi Channel; Mr. Jeffery Zucker, Chairman/CEO NBC.

Dresden Files Fans hold "Sit-in" at SFC Forum, More To Come...

During the November 16th airing of The Dresden Files episode "The Boone Identity", fans held a 'sit-in' over at the Sci-Fi Channel TDF forum to make their continued interest known. They amassed nearly 500 messages in just over 90 minutes.

Due to this success, additional sit-in's are currently scheduled at 6:35PM ET on November 23rd and 30th. Please join them!

The "Win Harry" Dresden Files DVD Promotion

The Dresden Files renewal campaign is currently holding a “Win Harry” promotional event running from 8/8/07 through 9/8/07! Virtual "raffle tickets" are being offered for just a $1.00 donation each, for a chance at winning the complete Season One 3-DVD set of The Dresden Files. What’s the goal? To visibly impact the ledgers of Lionsgate by making quantity purchases of DVD’s — to convince them that The Dresden Files is worth their time and investment! The best part for the fans is a chance of winning the random drawing and getting their favorite show on DVD (with extras & commentaries) for very little money while at the same time supporting the renewal effort. Proceeds will go toward covering campaign fees, advertising, etc. Fans can show support by collecting as many raffle tickets as they wish.

Read more details and make your donation here.
