Pardon the mass emailing.  For those of you who may read my blog regularly, this is news you already know.  But for the rest of you, I thought you might be interested in a little web series that Mike McCafferty has created called "Path."  It's a little interactive web series were you get to vote on what happens next.
 
Mike McCafferty, Eddie Jones, and Vincent Ventresca are all in the latest episode.  So go check it out if you haven't already.  It's a fun little series!

Please excuse the cross mailing but I wanted to introduce any I-Man fans who may not be aware of this yet to my new production company, Shoom Zone Productions.  Shoom Zone Productions was created as one of many beginning steps toward getting our cast together again. 
 
A film featuring our entire I-Man cast has started development.  It's not I-Man, but it will be our cast together again on the screen.  If you're a fan of the cast, I hope this is something that excites you as much as it excites me.
 
More details can be found at my new website:  http://www.shoomzone.com
 
Feel free to spread the word to fans who may not be on any of these lists.

Darien and Bobby learn through the HobbesNet grapevine that there's
some hinky dealings going down in San Francisco.  When international
terrorist Javier's name pops up, they can't resist getting in on the
action... especially since ol' Jonesy from the FBI is running the
operation that's obviously doomed to failure in our Agency boys' eyes.
Hobbes and Fawkes are out to stop a lunatic terrorist as only they know

A new non Iman RPG?

Hello my friends!
    Do any of you like Role Playing Games (RPGs) I love them, I'm a
member of a few.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to play on a game that
doesn't have a show to go with it?
I'm sure we all know what a hassle it is to join a well established
group and try to catch up…
Well I am a member of a game that is BRAND SPANKING NEW!!! It really
hasn't even started yet, there are promises of next weekend.
Anyway, I'm sure some of you out there are as weird as I am (Sci-fi
NOT the channel, the genre, Horror Fantasy etc.)
Do you have a muse that is dying to be supernatural, Vampire, were
wolf, fairie?
Well this will be a good game for you.

I am not the owner or mod and your membership must be approved, but
it doesn't take long and it seems like it'll be a great game!

Check it out, there's a home page that gives you all the info at…
www.zan.Ocatch.com (Make sure you cap the O in ocatch or it will
take you somewhere else)
www.groups.yahoo.com/group/zanziale  gets you to the game site.

Here's the info…

This is a narrative based role playing game which is based round the
original fictional kingdom of Zanziale. Zanziale is the 7th kingdom
in a world not much different from our own. The kingdom of Zanziale
was created by those known now as the elders - a group of immortal
beings who want to live in a world without prejudice. The created
Zanziale centuries ago because every other kingdom which existed was
against a certain creature. one kingdom made vampires outlaws and
allowed them to be hunted out right if they set foot in the kingdom,
another made all non humans live in poverty: without money or
houses, another banned humans, another witches and all magical folk.
So Zanziale was formed. Zanziale allows all creatures from humans to
vampires to demons to fey to live in one kingdom. Zanziale is now
home to countless different races of creatures who live together in
harmony or rather that's the idea. Sometimes you cannot always get
what you want...
The Elders who make the final decision but it is also governed by
the human mayor who is elected yearly by all who live there.
Please note that Zanziale is not based on any series of books which
exist at the moment. so please do not use any characters from other
peoples books such as: Lestat from the vampire chronicles by Anne
Rice or Anita Blake from L.K.Hamiltions Anita Blake Vampire hunter
series.
Also note that the name Zanziale and story surrounding its existence
and the characters of the elders are all copyrighted names so do not
copy them for any other sites without the owners permission to get
this please email the moderators/elders. Zanziale's home site is:
http://zanworld.tk

There's a reg form for if you want to play, you can reg your
character. There is a map so you can see where things are and you
can even open a business.
My character, Dominique, owns a vampire night club called the Blood
hound.
My character Vincent owns a werewolf hotel/safe house called the
full moon.

I wouldn't hurt to check it out.

I hope some of you are interested. It promises to be a good game,
but as of right now we don't have many players.

Please pardon the mass cross posting and I'm sure most of you have already read the news from Eddie, but what some of you may not know is that Eddie himself posted on the Perseus Project bboard.  Yes, he actually took the time to post in person. 
 
I wanted to make sure that as many I-Maniacs as possible know about this so that you can have an opportunity to post a quick hi to Eddie.  It would be so awesome if he saw an outpouring of I-Maniac love when he goes to check the replies to his message! 
 
 
Eddie is just the greatest.

If you have had a chance to browse the site recently, you'll see that The Invisible Man Online is gradually expanding.  Some of the links on the link bars are now clickable and more will be opening up in the future.

Here's a rundown on what's currently up on the site:

  • The Mailing List—This growing list is a great way to get all Invisible Man News announcements delivered directly to your inbox!  You'll find it convenient and safe from spam.  The Invisible Man Online believes in your right to privacy and will never sell, rent, or share your email address with anyone.  To join the mailing list, simply click on the Mailing List tab and fill out the form!

  • Save I-Man—This site has opened up with campaign petition news, but still has a lot more info coming in the future as the campaign to bring back the show in some form is a primary focus of this site.

  • Downloads—Check out what is available for you to download in this section:  1) DVD Petition Banners—Two DVD petition banners have been created and contributed by Liz to help you spread the word about the DVD petition.  Feel free to copy and paste them to your website and in your signatures.  Don't forget to link them to the DVD petition!  2) Petition Forms—Two petitions forms, a feature film petition form and a DVD petition form, have been created and turned into PDFs for you to download.  These forms are available for all I-Man fans who wish to collect more signatures in support of the petitions.  When you have them filled with signatures, mail them to The Invisible Man Online so that the signatures can be added to the existing numbers and we can see support for our causes grow!  3)  Brochures—An Invisible Man Online website promo brochure is now available.  If you like the site and want to spread word about it, feel free to download, print, and distribute as many as you wish.  Publicizing this site helps in turn to promote The Invisible Man, because promoting our favorite show is the reason this site was created!

(The calendar is best viewed in Internet Explorer.)

As some of you may know, the Quicksilver Database is being sent to the
proverbial glue factory.  The images from the Perseus Project section of the
site - the character pics - are going to be pulled from the 'net at the end of
the week.  I have not yet decided if I'm going to include any of them in the
Invisible Man graphics section at Creative Insanity, so here's your chance to
grab some, or all, of the pics for your own collection.

http://homepage.mac.com/axzanier/QSDatabase/PhotoAlbum22.html

The same goes for the assorted wallpapers and original artwork.

Some of the work will be moved to the Quicksilver Image Library for posterity,
but as overall fan interest has greatly waned in recent months, most of it will
be banished to to disk for long-term archiving then deleted from my hard drive.

The I-Man pages over to "imanreturns" will remain... I'd like to say forever,
but as we all know, that is not possible in this world.  I can say I have no
plans to get rid of them anytime in the near future.  I enjoy being able to
thumb my nose at TPTB at SlyLie, and toss in a neener, neener, neener for good
measure.  With some luck, and fundage, they'll get their own domain one day.

*snickersnort*

And we'll get an I-Man movie summer 2006.

Yeah, right.

Lori mentioned on the IMfanfic group about the Sci Fi chat with Tom Vitale.  It's been a while since I've read it, so I dug it up.  
 
Mr. Vitale states that he IS an I-Man fan in this chat.  Several shows are discussed in this interview, but much of the information can be applied to our situation.  He talks about how letters are viewed and how they influence the channel.  He also mentions how committed fans can be the best people to push their own show.  
 
I agree that NOW would be an excellent time to show the Sci Fi Channel and Mr. Vitale just how committed you are to this show.

Time to set those VCRs and dust off the stationary, I-Man Fans!


For those fans of The Invisible Man who still occasionally visit the Sci Fi Channel¹s website or watch the channel, you may have noticed that Vincent Ventresca has a film scheduled to air this month (see below for dates ­ there seems to be some confusion on the part of the schedulers... And consult your local listings for exact information). OK, so it may not be I-Man. It may not even be something you plan to watch. BUT. It may be a chance to remind TPTB that we are still here, and still want our I-Man.

With the assignment of Thomas Vitale (a reputed ally in the initial protest over the cancellation) as Senior Vice President of Original programming, NOW would be the time to contact Sci Fi Channel once again on behalf of Vince and The Invisible Man. Let the station know that we¹ve noticed our I-Man is reappearing on their network, and we want to know why they removed the Invisible Man web pages from their navigation page and search engines when they are using Vince¹s appearance in one of their own original series to promote the new film.

Ask them to return the series to the air in syndication, as they have other of their original series, such as Farscape, which still airs regularly. Ask them to reinstate the web pages. Ask them to reinstate the Bboard. Ask them to consider a DVD release for region 1. While they are doubtless not the rights-holder, they certainly would know whom to approach, and are more than capable of developing an arrangement with whichever part of the NBC/Universal group DOES hold those rights to potentially cross-promote a resyndication and a release of region 1 DVDs.

Why is it important to request I-Man be re-aired? Because that is the only way to demonstrate to TPTB that there is a market for the show. That it is high enough quality to draw new fans, and that those fans will want tie in merchandising and potentially, the reunion movie that has been in and out of negotiations for 2 years. In other words, we need to get I-Man resyndicated to prove to them there are profits to be made with the show, and that it is worth taking another look at it, and perhaps promoting it as it ought to have been promoted in the first place.

So if you have only one more I-Man letter in you, send it now.

There has been a bit of confusion as to which date Vince's movie "Larva" will be airing and/or why the date was changed.  The premiere, which was scheduled for January 15, was moved back a week to accomodate the tsunami disaster fundraising program. All NBC/Universal television stations are going to be airing this fundraising program for victims of the recent tsunami disaster.
 
The premiere will now be airing on January 22 at 9:00 p.m.  It will replay again at 1:00 a.m. and there will be an encore on January 27 at 9:00 p.m.  Be sure to check your local listings for the correct time in your time zone.
 
If you forget which days it is airing on, you can always check The Invisible Man Online's event calendar at:  http://www.invisiblemanonline.com/event_calendar_current.htm (I suggest using Internet Explorer to look at the event calendar.  It's a mess in Netscape.)

Once upon a time there was a little known cable channel called SciFi that,
remarkably, had one of the best Friday night line-ups on TV.  One of those
shows - The Invisible Man - proved to be like the little train that could.  A
creative and intelligent show that forced fans to do that most dreaded of
things... think.

And then they cancelled it.

But fans are a stubborn lot and hung around the "official" website and message
board, making their presence known in the first home to their favorite show.
It was also the place where newbies would show up when this quirky, fun TV show
appeared on their screens, be it Great Britain, Italy, Russia or Romania.  Two
years after it's cancellation they still came to the site.

And then they cancelled that too.

Deleted it.  Wiped it from the 'net without a word of warning, leaving fans,
both old and new, bereft.  Many had been convinced the site would be there
forever.  Others knew better, but none were prepared when the end finally came.

Then, miraculously, a resurrection.

No, not the series, though many wish for that daily - some still work for it,
even now - but  the website.  With a lot of perseverance, and a little luck,
the files were found and reconstructed as closely as possible to the original.

Sometimes, some cancellations aren't permanent.  Sometimes, if you want it
enough and work hard enough you can make the miracle happen.

Presenting The Invisible Man website.

One of a kind. In the image of the original. For fans of The Invisible Man.

Enjoy.

Actually, it looks like they changed the airing dates again.  Now it's airing on January 22.  This is the second time they've changed the schedule.  Sheesh, I wish they would make up their minds. 
 
Guess I better go update the announcement on my website.

Please pardon this mass crosspost but I wanted to remind everyone who was interested in winning the region-free DVD player and Season One DVDs (UK version) of I-Man that the drawing will be ending November 30.  Entries must be received by that date.
 
It's really easy to enter.  Just whip up a quick letter or postcard to TPTB, get a receipt as proof that you mailed it and send it in along with an entry form to The Invisible Man Online (address located at http://www.invisiblemanonline.com/contact.htm).  Or you can print out a movie or DVD petition form, get 25 signatures on it, and mail it in with an entry form.  There is no limit to the number of times you can enter.
 
 
If you already have a region-free DVD player and Season One DVDs just think what a great gift they would make.  Or if you are not interested in entering the drawing, but want to show your support for getting I-Man released on DVD or made into a feature film, feel free to collect signatures and mail them in or write letters to TPTB.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

November 16th. 2004


Keeping The Invisible Man visible:
Invisible Man Marketing & Promotion hosts a featured fan table at Galaxy Con.

The Invisible Man, one of Sci Fi Channel's Saturn Award-nominated original
series which ran from 2000-2002 and was a top ratings-getter before its
surprise cancellation in the midst of negotiations for not one, but two more
seasons, had a visible presence at Galaxy Con this November.

The Invisible Man's fan table at the second annual Galaxy Con, a fledgling
science fiction genre convention held the weekend of November 13-14, 2004 in
Beltsville, MD, was once again a thorough success with sci fi con-goers and
fans. Positioned prominently near the registration area, the table, sponsored
by Invisible Man Marketing & Promotion, and manned by members of the Imaniacs,
the unofficial fan club of The Invisible Man, featured information on all the
latest strategies in the campaign to garner attention for the series.  Current
publicity efforts include petitions requesting the release of region 1 DVDs and
a reunion feature film.  Genre fans and fans of The Invisible Man stopped by to
chat with fellow enthusiasts and sign the petitions, as well as enter the
drawings for I-Man themed raffle prizes.

Among the visitors to the table were Richard Hatch (Battlestar Galactica) and
Gigi Edgely (Farscape) who were happy to add their names to those requesting
both the DVDs and a feature film. Several notable authors also signed the
petitions and joined other fans in expressing their hope that the voices of
fans around the world will be heard. In all, over 100 signatures were collected
on each of the two petitions, copies of which will be sent to Matt Greenberg,
creator of The Invisible Man, as well as Craig Silverstein, writer-producer for
The Invisible Man, and currently producer of USA network's The Dead Zone.

In addition, copies are slated to go out to several other industry notables who
have expressed interest in seeing the cast of the show reunited for a feature
film. The Powers That Be at NBC Universal will also receive copies, to make
them aware of the continuing fan interest in the show, and hopefully to
encourage the resyndication of the series on one of the many cable channels in
the NBC family.


About The Invisible Man

The Invisible Man -- one of the SciFi Channel's top 3 original series and
consistently one of the top 10 genre shows in syndication -- premiered to
critical acclaim in June 2000.  It was abruptly cancelled after negotiations
fell through for not one, but two more seasons in late September 2001.

During its run, the chemistry between the two lead actors, Vincent Ventresca
and Paul Ben-Victor, garnered numerous accolades and the show drew critical
acclaim, including several Saturn Award nominations for both its seasons and a
best ensemble award from TV Zone magazine.  Additionally, numerous episodes
were included on The Futon Critic's list of the Top 50 Episodes of 2001 and
2002, and the show swept numerous categories in the fan-based voting for the
2002 Roswell Awards.

Created by talented Matt Greenberg (Reign of Fire), the show also created quite
a buzz in the creative community, attracting such luminaries as:  Armin
Shimerman (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Craig
Silverstein (creative consultant, producer, The Dead Zone), George Huang
(director of Swimming with Sharks), Greg Yaitanes (director of episodes of Las
Vegas, Cold Case), Justine Miceli (NYPD Blue), Joel Bissonette (Boulevard,
Fight Club), David Burke (Joan of Arcadia), Michael Welch (Joan of Arcadia,
Star Trek: Insurrection) and Adam Storke (Mystic Pizza, Prey).
