|
Check out what the Save Farscape campaign managed to do! They've got an ad on the cover of Variety magazine. That isn't cheap----word is, that sort of ad would cost over $50,000. Either someone very rich is a fan, or there are just many more fans out there than the Nielsen ratings indicate.

The thing with Dark Angel was that it went from a well thought-out, touching, action-packed show to a porno. It was a wonderful concept, but they just started focussing it way too much on sexuality.

If anything, "Dark Angel" avoided sexuality.
As for Farscape, I don't understand why fans would do this. I mean, if the advertising budget of the Sci-fi channel couldn't get enough ratings for the show, how can the fans?

^The idea, as I understand it, was originally to show other potential networks that Farscape fans have lots of disposable income. Its pretty much hopeless, at this point, but they're still going for some reason. Determined group of people.
