operation demios
 

Operation Demios is the code name for an operation to save our favourite TV show, Space: Above and Beyond.  And now, you too marine, have been selected to participate in this glorious battle.


SAVE OUR SPACE

Since the cancelling of S:AAB after its first season the US based, international fan club,  The 59th Space Ready Reserve have been campaigning to bring the series back.

The series was cancelled because of political reasons, not because of ratings. The people responsible for this have left Fox. Mr. Charlie Goldstein of Twentieth Century Fox still supports the programme and all the actors have expressed that they would return to the series. Mr. Goldstein is the voice "Watch Your Hands" at the end.


MISSION BRIEF

Objective

To convince a syndicator that it would be worth their while to produce Space as either a second series or a TV movie run.
 

Tactics

Write by hand to:

Mr. Charlie Goldstein
Twentieth Century Fox
PO Box 900
Beverly Hills,
C.A. 90213

at Twentieth Century FOX giving support to the series (and asking for videos to be released).

UPN have expressed an interest. It would give them a hard edge in the slot that Star Trek fills the soft edge. They would have a second phenomenon to compare with ST.

Mr. Dean Valentine, President and Mr. Ron Taylor, Vice President, Programming

both at:
United Paramount Network,
11800 Wilshire Blvd.
Los Angeles,
CA 90025

Warners put in an offer when Fox pulled the series. Fox wouldn't give the rights over. Warners already have a tough series in production and spin offs from Babylon 5 but still write as all this gets around the industry.  Not only that, but as many of you already know, Warners have recently sold B5 to TNT and so may be looking for a replacement.
