The Event for The Event, Part 2

It's time for our second The Event for The Event!!! :) This time, we want to expand our circle, still contacting NBCUniversal but to also include Netflix, Syfy & Hulu in the U.S., and ask international fans to contact their networks. This might seem like a lot of work, but believe me, our efforts were noticed last time. Please participate!! :) We must continue to apply the pressure to bring back The Event!

We ask for you to send letters like we did last time. Here are the addresses:

Marc Graboff
President, NBCUniversal West Coast Operations
RE: The Event
3000 W. Alameda
Burbank, CA 91523

Mr. Graboff can be emailed directly at marc.graboff@nbcuni.com and on Twitter at @mgraboff.

Ted Sarandos
Chief Content Officer
Netflix
100 Winchester Circle
Los Gatos, CA 95032

Mr. Sarandos can be emailed directly at tsarandos@netflix.com.

Mark Stern
Executive Vice President, Original Programming, Syfy

30 Rockefeller Plaza, 21st Floor
New York, NY 10112

Mr. Stern can be emailed directly at mark.stern@nbcuni.com.

Andy Forssell
Senior Vice President of Content Acquisition and Distribution
Hulu, LLC
12312 W. Olympic Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90064

I haven't found an email for Mr. Forssell yet. However, there is a special Content Requests forum section on Hulu's site you can post to.

In addition, we will be tweeting nonstop to @NBC, @Syfy, @Netflix, @Hulu, and anyone else you think should hear this. Let them know how much we want the event back! Make sure you included #theevent in the tweets.

When tweeting, include #TheEvent and (if you have room) #ContinueTheEvent. Let's get The Event treading! If you don't have a Twitter account, get one!

For those of you who have a Google+ account, also post there. Make your posts public, so they can be found by anyone on the network. If you don't have a Google+ account but want one, please leave a comment here and one of us can add you.

For those of you on Facebook, go to the Facebook pages of NBC (and NBCTheEvent), Netflix, Syfy and Hulu, and let them know you want to see The Event continue!

Another important task... find internet celebs that like The Event and have them help with the cause!

When I'm on Twitter, I search for people tweeting about The Event, and I let them know about our site, so they can join this fight. Now, I'll do this for anyone I come across, regardless of how many followers they have, but let's face it... someone who joins the fight that has many followers can do more to bring others to the fight than someone who has few of them. I'll have more effect if I can get the attention of someone who has 5,000 followers than someone else who has 5.

Occasionally, I'll come across people that have a lot of followers. This is a good thing, because if they retweet, their followers will see what I've tweeted and some of them who also enjoy The Event will join the cause.

Today, I found an internet celebrity that watches The Event, but I haven't been successful getting her attention. However, with your help, we can do it together.

Justine Ezarik, better known as @ijustine, is a fan of The Event. She has almost 1.3 million followers on Twitter. THAT'S HUGE!!! Consider this: If 0.5% of her fans sent in an email to Marc Graboff at NBCUniversal, that's 6,500 emails!

Here's a request... help me get the attention of @ijustine. Send her a tweet about this site and get her to tweet about it. If you do, we'll have a lot more people join this cause!

If you know of any other people that have more than 1,000 Twitter followers and watch The Event, please tweet to them, and let them know about this site, tweeting and emailing NBCUniversal exec Marc Graboff, the person that can do the most to bring back The Event, and do some of the other things we've mentioned on this site.

The Event for The Event, Between Now and Phase 2

Thanks to everyone who participated in "The Event for The Event" on Monday, June 27th. It was a success, with thousands of people participating and letting the powers that be know that we want The Event to return.

It's now time to continue "The Event for The Event". In fact, we'll be continuing "The Event for The Event" every Monday until we have a definitive answer about its return.

As you know if you're in the U.S., and you probably know elsewhere, it's July the 4th this Monday, which is Independence Day - a holiday in the U.S.. With that in mind, we're asking for our international viewers to be front and center this time around. We want you to contact your networks that televise The Event, and tell them that you want to see The Event return. We're going to make this installment a week-long event, given the holiday.

What we're asking for your help on is we'd like it if international viewers could send in the contacts for their country and network. We'll update this post as more viewers chime in with contact information, and as we find out the information on our own.

• UK Viewers: Go to Channel 4's Contact Us page to let them know you want more of The Event.
• Latin America: There are a few ways to make contact. Universal Channel has a Facebook page. There is a Spanish language page on Facebook for The Event.
• Asia: Email info.asia@nbcuni.com to let Universal Channel Asia know.

American viewers, that doesn't excuse you of anything to do. We would like Americans to expand the circle of contact. In addition to contacting Marc Graboff and Ted Harbert, we'd like to expand to include the following:

• More NBCUniversal Execs - Robert Greenblatt - Robert.Greenblatt@nbcuni.com and CEO Steve Burke - We're guessing his email is Stephen.Burke@nbcuni.com or Steve.Burke@nbcuni.com.
• NBC Affiliates - Contact your local station to let them know you want The Event to continue. I have a partial list of contacts that I will include later.
• Other Channels/Alternative Sources - This includes Syfy @syfy and Netflix. I'll include email addresses once I have them.

Update: Here is a partial list of U.S. NBC affiliates:

The plan is to get to media attention in the next two weeks, if we don't get a response before that. So, let's keep the pressure up!

I wanted to get a post out before much more time had elapsed. I will keep editing this post with more content over the next day, and on the 4th as well.info.asia@nbcuni.com

Here is your most important task today...

Marc Graboff is the man. He's the president of NBC West Coast and Universal Media Studios, and from my research, he is the person who can decide whether or not we see The Event return as a movie or mini-series.

His Twitter is @mgraboff, and based on the pattern I see for NBC Universal email addresses, his email address should be: Marc.Graboff@nbcuni.com. If you want The Event back, send him an email, and do it TODAY. We can't waste anymore time.

Remember, be courteous. Be respectful. Be polite. Ask nicely, but be enthusiastic. Speak from the heart. Tell him why he should bring The Event back.

To send Marc Graboff a snail mail, the postal address is:

Marc Graboff

President, West Coast Business Operations,

NBC Entertainment
RE: The Event
3000 W Alameda Ave
Burbank, CA 91523

Here is another important person at NBCUniversal to contact...

Ted Harbert is new to NBCUniversal. He came over from the Comcast merger. Mr. Harbert is Chairman of NBC Broadcasting. In this role, Harbert is responsible for NBC Advertising Sales, Affiliate Relations and companywide Research, Domestic Television Distribution and the NBC Local Media group. He reports directly to the CEO Steve Burke, who also came over from Comcast.

Sources tell me that although he wouldn't directly be involved in bringing back The Event, he has a very influential role and would be interested in knowing that fans want The Event to return... so we'll tell him!

Based on the email pattern we have found for NBCUniversal employees, we believe Ted's email is Ted.Harbert@nbcuni.com.

To send Ted Harbert mail, the postal address is:

Ted Harbert
NBC Broadcasting
c/o NBCUniversal
RE: The Event
30 Rockefeller Plaza
New York, NY 10112

Do you want The Event to return? Here are a few ground rules to follow...

Repost from The Event Fanatic:

If you want to get The Event back on the air, here are a few key concepts you need to consider:

1. It’s Business: Make no mistake - television shows are not on the air to entertain us. They are on the air to make the network and the production company that owns the rights to the show money, hopefully at a profit. If a show isn't profitable, it's not going to stay on the air. It's as plain and simple as that. It's also true for movies, music, publishing and even video games. Entertainment companies are not in the business to entertain you. It’s not art. They are in the business to make money, and if they do it while entertaining, then all the better, but a network’s primary way to make money is through ratings, and the advertising revenues they can generate as a result. 
2. Stop biting the hands that have fed us: What a lot of people don't understand is that NBC and Universal Media Studios (the production company that produces and owns the rights to The Event) are, essentially, the same company. They share executives. When fans are bad mouthing NBC, you're basically bad mouthing the same company that produced the show in the first place. If you ever want a chance at The Event coming back, fans must stop the attacks on NBC. Fans who want the show back but insult the network and the executives are not only insulting NBC, but they are also insulting the very people who have a chance to find new life for The Event. I know, if it were me, I wouldn't go out of my way to consider changing a decision or green-lighting a new movie for fans of a show who are insulting me and my team of executives. It's just not constructive. If you want the show to return, be polite. Be respectful. 
3. If you can help show that The Event can be profitable, do so: Some may read this and object, and I understand that to an extent. This is a somewhat unusual situation, in that the company that produces and owns the rights to The Event and the network that broadcasts The Event in the U.S. are basically the same company, but it is more common that it used to be. If you want to give The Event a better chance at returning, show it with your wallets. Buy episodes online. Pre-order the DVD and Blu-ray. Buy items from the NBC Universal Store. The soundtrack is also available on iTunes. These all help The Event look more attractive to return, since the bean counters can see more revenues result from the show.
4. Stop focusing on the past: The Event has been canceled. Get over it. Stop going on about WHY NBC canceled it, or what NBC could have or should have done. Can you argue that Monday at 9PM was a bad time slot for The Event, going up against Dancing With The Stars? Sure, absolutely. Can you say that the three month hiatus was bad for ratings? Yes, sure. However, what does that solve? It's past history. You can’t go back in a time machine and change decisions that were made. In fact, I’d bet the producers and the network would both go back in time and make other decisions if they could. However, we live in fact, and time travel is science fiction, not science fact. What is done is done. It's like the old story of the high school quarterback that threw the interception late in the game that cost his team that championship, and then spends the next 25 years going over that in his head.
5. Focus on the NOW, what IS reality: Here’s what IS true: The writers and actors of The Event are still under contract from NBC/Universal Media Studios. True, some of them have found other parts. I know about Blair Underwood on Broadway, and Zeljko Ivanek taking a role in a movie, as well as Nick Wauters working as a writer on The Vampire Diaries. Don’t take that to mean that they have been let out of their contracts. In fact, if you listen to the last episode of The EventCast, you’ll hear Jason Ritter explain just that. If I am interpreting things correctly, and I'm pretty sure that I am, Nick Wauters working on TVD also has no effect on bringing The Event back.
6. Sources tell me that Steve Stark, Nick Wauters, and yes... even, believe it or not, supporters within NBC Universal are still actively looking to bring back The Event in a movie or mini-series form. If they can, and it's successful, it opens up the possibility for the show to return as a series in the following season. 
7. Shows can be "un-canceled". There are many shows that were canceled that have returned. Star Trek is the most famous, but certainly not the only show that has done it. Jericho, Medium, Futurama, and Roswell are some recent examples, and there are many more. Even more shows came back in a new form, such as Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek (again, as Star Trek: The Next Generation, and the other shows that followed it). Nothing that has been decided has to stay that way. 
8. Every fan counts; every fan can make a difference: You may not seem to be important, but every fan out there can make a difference. I am not affiliated with the show in any way, but countless people have thanked me for doing everything I can to save the show... but I am but one man. I am a man that sometimes works long hours, is married, and have a lot of mouths to feed and take care of, but I maintain this website. I post on Twitter and Facebook however and whenever I can, and I know I AM making a difference. So can you.

Tomorrow, June 27th, is the start of The Event for The Event. Join me, and fans everywhere, as we do everything we can to get our show back. More on that in my next post.

Announcing "The Event for The Event"

Fans!!! Join the celebration on Monday, June 27th, where fans of The Event will take part in the first ever "The Event for The Event".

Quite simply, this will be a day where fans everywhere will unite, celebrate the show, and do EVERYTHING in our collective powers to bring back the show!

We'll have more details to come as the day arrives. Until then, celebrate The Event! Tell your friends to catch up on the show and get more people hooked on The Event!

Get NBC to play re-runs in the summer

As most of you know, the producers have been shopping around The Event. The reports on Deadline.com and IMDB have given The Event the biggest publicity of all of the cancelled TV shows. People are hearing about it, which is good. Two and a Half Men got their all-time ratings high on re-runs during Charlie Sheen's 'time', which is a perfect example of what publicity can do.

Let's face it. Write-in/twitter campaigns are all too common and are not eye catching by TV podcasts, blogs, and news sites (which can generate a lot of publicity). Write-in campaigns aren't going to get any new viewers either. In order to get more viewers, NBC (or any other network) needs to air re-runs of the show. Yes, you can watch some of them online, and the best way to do this is to approach sci-fi/TV podcasts, blogs, and fansites to promote it. Many will at least like the show and by doing this, it shoots it's publicity through the roof. This is also a nice way for NBC Universal to make more money from the show, which doesn't hurt our cause. If The Event is profitable, it has more chance of getting back on the air in new episodes, mini-series or a TV movie.

So go on to iTunes, twitter, Facebook, or whatever, and tell people that you want them to talk/post about our current campaign. If everybody that read this post does this and tells a few more people, it will be up in no time. (Also, tell your friends about us, the more the merrier.)

Please leave in the comments, a few sci-fi/TV plugins to contact so everyone can check them out.

The Event Fanbase Project Part 14 - The Phone-In Campaign

It's time to take this to this project to the next level!

It's now time to start flooding NBC with phone calls.

Call the NBC Switchboard! Call NBC in Burbank, CA at 818-840-4444 and tell them you want The Event to return for a second season!

I've also found a couple of other contacts for The Event publicity:

Jamie French
Director
NBC Entertainment Publicity
(818) 777-2835
Project Assignment: "Chuck", "Parenthood", "Perfect Couples", "The Event", "Friday Night Lights", "The Voice"
jamie.french@nbcuni.com

Akiva Griffith
Junior Press Manager
NBC Entertainment Publicity
(818) 777-3096
Project Assignment: "Chuck", "The Event"
Akiva.Griffith@nbcuni.com

My guess is that Akiva Griffith is the one that is handling all the correspondence coming in from The Event and Chuck fans wanting those shows to be renewed. In any case, it's time to start peppering them with phone calls. Tell them you want a second season of The Event!

Lastly, here's the contact for NBC Entertainment Publicity (Jamie & Akiva's boss):

Rebecca Marks
Executive Vice President, Publicity
818-777-3030
Rebecca.Marks@nbcuni.com

The Event Fanbase Project Part 12 - Send NBC execs packets of Splenda for a second season of The Event

I read that the UPN show Roswell was saved in part by a fan campaign where fans sent in bottles of Tabasco sauce to the TV execs. That helped me come up with an idea.

From episode 1.17 "Cut Off The Head", we see that Jarvis is about to poison Martinez with a tainted package of Splenda. What if we fans all send in packets of Splenda into NBC to get them to renew the show? I'm floating this idea on Facebook and Twitter, and now here, to use that as our campaign. What do you think?

Update: For those of you that do not have the Splenda brand in your country, it's a brand name for Sucralose. In some countries, it's called Sucaryl. It's a yellow packet.

The Event Fanbase Project Part 11- The Wave

This, in my hopes, will be a big factor for The Event and its fans. On every Monday at 8:00 P.M in YOUR time zone, you get on Twitter and write "@NBC #TheEvent", or on Facebook (on NBC's wall) The Event. For every one of these tweets/ posts, NBC sees that they have a big and loyal fanbase. This, I think, will be the main project until NBC's decision (hopefully to renew) about The Event's future. That doesn't mean you shouldn't do the other things I have in my other posts. Please, copy and paste this link and send this to other The Event fans. You can even post this right now (and I will happily retweet it), but make ABSOLUTE sure that you post this on Monday at 8:00 P.M in YOUR TIME ZONE (not when The Event stars airing.) We need to unite in one massive movement to save The Event.

If you are a big fan of The Event and want to make your own fanpage and twitter to help save the show, PLEASE don't hesitate to contact me at theeventfancentral@gmail.com.

The Event Fanbase Project Part 8- Spreading The Word

All of the other things that we have been doing, would be like beating a dead horse if the ratings kept going down. We need to talk about The Event and let people know that it's on and it's good. Talk to you co-workers, family, friends, people who like similar TV shows. Tweet about how much you like The Event. I know I have been really stressing this, but if The Event does good in voting polls or competitions, people will see that and start watching it. The only way it will get renewed is to get more viewers. More viewers = new viewers

The Event Fanbase Project Part 7- POSTAL MAIL NBC

Picture was made by @valkeriecic on twitter.

 

Now, here's one of the biggest ones. E-mailing NBC, is good, but it doesn't seem as sincere and close to the heart as a handwritten letter. You should include the points I mentioned in the last post. I do need to put out a few pointers though. 1. Make it handwritten- as I said, handwritten is very sincere and it shows them that you put the effort into doing this. 2. Print out a picture of a The Event picture or logo to send along with the letter (try this picture). 3. and finally, their mailing address is
 
Subject: NBC’s The Event
Universal Media Studios
100 Universal City Plaza
Universal City, CA 91608
United States of America

The Event Fanbase Project Part 5- Twitter Takeover

First off, nbc IS on twitter and so are most of us. The reason most companies have twitter is to get feedback from the rest of the world (and most likely nbc too). So we are going to send tweets to NBC and get many people to retweet them. If you go to @EventFanCentral and look at my "Favorites", retweet the messages that have "Dear @nbc" at the beginning. So far, the most retweets that one of my tweets has is 13. My goal is that before NBC makes a decision on renewing/ cancelling The Event, we will have a tweet with 50 retweets. If you want to make your own tweets to NBC, just start it off with "Dear @nbc" or something like that- put a word in front of the @nbc, so the rest of the world can see it. If you do make your own tweet to them, just leave a comment, and I will happily retweet it. Thanks.

I am now writing this 12 hours later, and I currently have 27 retweets- pretty good for 12 hours. :)We need to keep this going. For those of you who are reading this, please retweet the message I have described above, if you are having trouble with it/ finding it etc. just leave a comment and I will help you.

The Event Fanbase Project Part 4- Little Things That Make a Big Difference

Portions were written by ChuckGasmic. So do him a favor and check out his site
Watch The Event on NBC.com and not on Hulu (if you can) if you are not a Nielsen viewer. (If you want to re watch it don't watch it off of your DVR (if not a Nielsen viewer) watch it on nbc.com.)  When Comcast acquired majority holdings in NBC, they had to give up controlling interest in Hulu.  That means NBC makes their online viewing ad money from NBC.com.  It may not be a lot of money, but when you watch it there, you do help offset some of the cost. You should also click on the ads that come up, and even contact them and thank them for sponsoring The Event.  This helps whether you are a Nielsen member or not.

Buy The Event apparel from the NBC store. It  gives them money, knowing that some people like The Event, and a small portion of advertising.

Make an account on RewardTV. This is a website owned by Nielsen to see how much viewers pay attention during a specific program. So watch The Event (even rewatch it), and take the quiz on Tuesdays only.

Please Comment if you have more ideas on how to save The Event. I still have a few more, but the more ideas, the better.

The Event Fanbase Project Part 3- Voting & Petitions

As of right now, I only know of 1 petition for The Event and 2 voting contests going on right now, and I deeply encourage you to actively participate in this.

• Petition to save The Event- http://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/the-event-petition/   PLEASE out of all of these, push this one the most to others on twitter, facebook etc...
• BuzzSugar 'Renew the shows on the Bubble' http://www.buzzsugar.com/TV-Shows-Danger-Being-Canceled-Include-Chuck-Outsourced-Ordinary-Family-15225056
• USA Today Renew or Drop
  http://www.zoomerang.com/Survey/WEB22C4S4USTSU/
• Best Sci-Fi show http://www.buzzsugar.com/Best-Sci-Fi-Show-2010-12455744

Please, if you can, get people to know about this, The Event has a big fanbase and we just need to let them know what is going on.
If you know of anymore online petitions/polls/ anything of the sort. PLEASE don't hesitate to comment that below! 

The Event Fanbase Project Part 2- Nielsen Homes

THIS ARTICLE WAS WRITTEN BY CHUCKGASMIC (@CHUCKMEMONDAYS ON TWITTER) AND VERY GENEROUSLY LET ME USE THIS. PLEASE DO HIM A FAVOR AND CHECK OUT HIS SITE RIGHT NOW.

THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT but can only be accomplished by about 1% of US dwellers and likely 1% of people reading this right now.  WATCH THE EVENT LIVE... especially if you are a NIELSEN FAMILY MEMBER.  If you are not one, or don't understand what that means, don't worry about it.  You are not one of them.  You don't need to know what it means.

But if you are a Nielsen family member, here is what you have to do to make sure your viewing of the show counts, and counts for as much as possible:

• DO tune into NBC early (at least a minute before the episode begins).
• DO have your button nearby... and click it when it blinks.  Click it every time it blinks.  Have friends and family over and have them click their buttons.  Give guests their buttons and teach them how to use them.  Remember, the ratings Nielsen wants is from people 18-49 (18-34 is even better), so if you have to lie, then your guests are males between the ages of 18 to 34.  Not that I recommend lying... but hey, SAVE THE EVENT!
  • If you don't have a button, then you are wearing your device.  So, ignore the button pushing part.
• DO record the episode onto your DVR (if you have one) while you watch the episode live.  I will explain why this is important to do in a few steps.
• DO NOT switch channels during commercials.  This is extremely important.  If you do, then your view will not be counted.
• DO NOT pause your live viewing (for those with DVRs) and then fast forward through the commercials.  If you do, then your view will not be counted.
• DO leave the remote alone while you are watching THE EVENT on NBC LIVE!
• DO, I say this again, click your buttons when they blink, every time!
• DO, and this is really important, watch THE EVENT again, once the live viewing is over, on your DVR.
• DO NOT, and this is really really importanter (I am just making up words now), fast forward through commercials while watching it on your DVR.  Treat it like you are watching LIVE.  
• DO watch the episode on your DVR before 3am if you missed a live viewing, while not fast forwarding, since viewings before 3am WILL count toward the overnight ratings.
• DO watch several more times within three days WITHOUT SKIPPING COMMERCIALS. In fact, if you only watch the commercials and you watch them several times, you will count towards the C3 every time (thanks dkd).  

Let me just explain that third to last point a bit more.  It used to be that if you watched the show twice (live and then on your DVR) that it was only counted once.  But Nielsen is now counting multiple viewings, provided that those viewings include all commercials without fast forwarding through them (called time shifting).  So, if you are a very dedicated Nielsen viewer, please do that.  You will make a big difference.

Please, if you are a Nielsen viewer, please comment. I'm only doing this to see how many Nielsen viewers I have reached, not to make you bias, so you can comment as "Anonymous". Thanks.

The Event Fanbase Project Part 1

So, since The Event is in some hot water, the huge fanbase potential needs to reveal. Right now, start with putting this as your Twitter status or retweeting the original one I have on my twitter page (just look on my favorited tweets, it should be the first one there).

"Dear @nbc, Please keep faith in #TheEvent. RETWEET IF YOU AGREE."

Use the hashtag #TheEvent on Twitter because there is a TV ratings company that measure fanbase loyalty such as number of tweets about the show by using the hashtag.

Please also take 3 minutes to vote for The Event on the sites on my "Voting Opportunities" page

If The Event averages a 1.3 (really easy) 18-49 demo rating for the rest of the season, it will finish with a 2.0 average
