Michael Martinez has been busy today. His Operation LotS More has issued another press release, this time on i-newsire.com
Despite the cancellation of Legend of the Seeker, fan groups are still calling for viewer support of the show in hope of inspiring a third season or feature film. The newest initiative calls for fans to promote a new category in the People's Choice Awards and to help build sales of the 2nd season's DvD and Blu-Ray sets.
Fansite SaveOurSeeker.com is asking people to help nominate a new category -- "Favorite TV Fantasy Hero" -- in the People's Choice Awards. The PCA called for nominations on its Website (http://www.peopleschoice.com/pca/categories/vote.jsp). Fan campaign announcements and instructions for coordinated voting have been published on science fiction blogs and forums, including forums.legendoftheseeker.org.
At the same time, Legend of the Seeker fan groups are planning to increase awareness of, and viewership for the show through promoting DvD and Blu-Ray sales. Ideas including setting up viewing parties at scifi conventions, local churches, community centers, libraries, schools, and colleges. Where possible, fans will introduce their friends to the show and encourage them to buy the DvDs from their favorite online retailers
Thanks Michael, we Seekers really appreciate your help and expertise.

New Xenite press release
Thanks to Operation LotsMore and Michael Martinez there is a new press release on OpenPR.com:
Legend of the Seeker Fans Rally Around People's Choice Awards and DvD Sales to Save Their Show
(openPR) - Seattle, WA -- Not yet finished showing support for the cancelled syndicated TV series Legend of the Seeker, fans are organizing an online voting campaign to nominate a "Favorite TV Fantasy Hero" category for the People's Choice Awards and at the same time are mobilizing to drive up sales of the 2nd season DvDs and Blu-Ray. Legend of the Seeker failed to win a third season due to the loss of approximately 1/3 of its North American viewing audience when the Tribune Station Group dropped the show in March.
Having raised almost $30,000 in a few months to show fan support for the show in trade publications, fansite SaveOurSeeker.com is now asking fans to collectively propose and vote for a new category in the People's Choice Awards. Now accepting public submissions for a new category (www.peopleschoice.com/pca/categories/vote.jsp), the People's Choice Awards represents a new opportunity to increase visibility and viewership for Legend of the Seeker. Seeker fans intend to leave their mark on the awards by proposing the "Favorite TV Fantasy Hero" category.
But recognizing that DvD and Blu-Ray sales of the second season will make a big impact on decision-makers, Legend of the Seeker fans are also organizing online and offline campaigns to introduce new viewers to the show. Ideas include setting up viewing parties at science fiction conventions, churches, community centers, libraries, and schools. Fans are also asking their local libraries to add Legend of the Seeker to their video collections.
Great stuff! I love seeing articles like this, it makes me know that others are seeing all our efforts and is great for bringing Seeker more visibility.
