I miss October road, all fans please come to abc(dot com) type october road into the search box and click on the message boards, If you want to see this amazing show return checkout all the stuff we're doin to help get a season 3

HERE'S WHAT A FAN FROM ABC.COM CAME UP WITH TO HELP SAVE OCTOBER ROAD:
Got a tennis racket? Got drumsticks? What to see "the band back together"? Please send 1 tennis racket if you previously haven't and/or drumsticks to ABC executives Stephen McPherson (President of ABC Primetime and a fellow fan), Anne Sweeney (President of the Disney-ABC Television Group and Stephen's and Mark's boss), and/or Mark Pedowitz (President of ABC Studios which produced "October Road" and who helped along with Mr. McPherson and Mr. Tortorici, President of GroupM Entertainment, to get financing to bring this series on the air) to arrive on the target date of Monday, November 24th. Send with it a note along the lines of "We want the band back together".

Stephen McPherson, President
ABC Studios
500 South Buena Vista St.
Burbank, CA 91521-4551

Anne Sweeney, President
Disney-ABC Television Group
3800 W. Alameda Ave., Room 504
Burbank, CA 91505-4300

Mark Pedowitz, President
ABC Studios
500 South Buena Vista St.
Burbank, CA 91521-4551

If you don't own a tennis racket or know someone who does, you can drop by your nearest sporting goods store or a garage sale (you can also try a thrift store), take it home with you and beat it up a little - to show the wear and tear due to use and passage of time, though Physical Phil kept it in pretty good shape when he gave it back to Nick ten years later). You'll need to contact your local Post Office with the size and weight of your tennis racket(s).

In addition, you can check department stores like Wal-Mart, K-Mart, toy stores or try a thrift store for drumsticks. Also check with friends or someone in the family.

"Friday Night Lights" fans sent footballs to NBC, "Jericho" fans sent nuts, while "Roswell" fans (life myself) sent bottles of Tabasco sauce to The WB and UPN. This all resulted in their shows being resurrected (along with heavy letter writing, phone calls, and e-mails, though in "Roswell's" case, twice on two separate networks). So find that tennis racket or purchase one, drop by Wal-Mart or various outlets and pick up those drumsticks, keep advertising, keeping writing (don't forget to put some leaves in the envelopes and if you're also sending postcards, send one of your small town or hometown and find one with an autumn theme), and let's get a third season for "October Road"!

Note to October Rd and Life on Mars Fans


This should be ABCs next Promotion

ABC brings back the SUMMER RERUNS
Set your DVR with no worries
Every Week, Same Night, Same Time Same Channel
Full season run no hiatus
The two Shows everyone's been talking about

Life on Mars and October Road

See them in order
And you viewers thought we weren't listening

2 hrs viewing the work of one of the best production
teams in television today
Josh Appelbaum ("Alias," "October Road")
, André Nemec ("Alias," "October Road") and
Scott Rosenberg ("October Road")
are executive producers for Both Shows

ABC are you really listening?
A great new way to market a very old idea
A very inexpensive way to experiment and build momentum
leading up to the new season while at the very
least promoting the newest DVD releases
Innovative, inexpensive and something to please
whatever viewers you have left and maybe get a few
others curious. Are you ready?

Like the idea check out saveoursam.com
click: resources click: the 125
Help us convince ABC that these two shows in
one night would draw an audience

Come discuss how Join forces
