MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO HELP OUR CAMPAIGN BY STAYING ACTIVE. WE DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. WE PROVIDE A FORUM FOR THOSE WHO WANT MORE OF THE WHEDONVERSE.



Take A Letter, Cordelia

We love television. More than that, as Angel and Buffy fans we love and recognize great television. We want to watch programs that are entertaining and about things that are important. Journalists that cover television want to write about them. It’s only natural that they share with Angel and Buffy fans their enthusiasm and appreciation for all things Joss Whedon. After all, if nothing on tv is important, nothing that is written about tv is important.

The next two targets whose aid we are trying to enlist for our Raising the Stakes and Raising the Bar Campaigns have always been great supporters of Joss Whedon’s work. David Bianculli is the television critic for the New York Daily News and can be heard on National Public Radio’s Fresh Air. He is also the author of Teleliteracy: Taking Television Seriously and the Dictionary of Teleliteracy: Television's 500 Greatest Hits, Misses and Events. He was also a keynote speaker at the Slayage Conference in Nashville in 2004. E! Online’s Kristin Veitch is no stranger to us. Her enthusiastic support of fan campaigns to save Angel and to bring the Whedonverse back to television has earned her the affection of Whedon fans from all over. No one serves the dish on television better than Kristin.

As with our past targets, you could send tourist postcards from your area or letters if you do not wish to print postcards from here. If you have friends or family that do not go on the Internet or visit this site, be proactive and either print or buy them postcards and stamps. If your whole family would watch a spin-off or Angel feature film, each member should send a separate postcard. Do the same if your significant other is interested in it.

TV Gal Amy Amatangelo discusses Death On TV and BTVS's THE BODY, hails it as the "one show that got it all right" It was great to see someone recognise the show for it's superior scripts. This recent inclusion also shows that the Buffy/Angel verse is still in the news everyweek.
