I found the following notice posted on a bulletin board in the Social
Science building at my alma mater ofWeber State University this morning
and thought I'd share it with Y'all...

====
                       SAVE OUR SAILORS!
     DIC Entertainment's dub of Toei's Sailor Moon is currently in production
limbo, and only you can save it!

     Sailor Moon's syndicated run in the U.S. ended on Sept. 6 and was
not renewed. YTV and Canwest Global in Canada are repeating the 65
English episodes this season, but will show no new ones. Even though
Sailor Moon has enjoyed remarkable success in Canada and more
recently in Australia, it has failed to gain strong ratings in the syndicated
U.S. market due to poor time slots.

 [TYPIST'S NOTE: I can vouch for this. When SM was on here in Utah, it
normally went out at  5:30 in the morning.]

     Sailor Moon is being cancelledbecause not enough advertisers are
willing to pay enough to sponsor it, because networks don't think it worth
picking up, and because DIC doesn't believe it profitable enough to keep
on the air. At this time, they have no plans to dub additional episodes.

      Enter the SOS Team.

    A non-profit organization not affiliated with DIC, Toei or Bandai, we
have collected the signatures of over 30,000 online Sailor Moon fans
who support the dubbing of further English episodes. We believe Sailor
Moon to be a wonderful show, a breath of fresh air from the TV screen,
worth saving and definitely deserving of the same success in English
markets that it has enjoyed worldwide.

    We propose a campaign to convince the networks, local TV stations,
and advertisers to renew Sailor Moon for another 65 episodes via a
networkor syndication presentation.

    Now then, before my mailbox becomes baked with flames for posting
this, let me state that I neither support nor discourage support of this
group, I am merely posting this for the sake of information which I thought
some members on this list might find informative, amusing, or see as a
bunch of victims to be hunted down and @bapped severely. This is the
reason for the Spammish header in the subject line above. All
punctuation and emphasis is taken directly from the flyer. So like, hate it,
delete it or support it...it's there. Don't kill the damn messenger.

P.S. I have no idea how old this flyer is.
