OT: Letter writing campaign for "V: The Second Generation"

A new related report from Michael Faries of BattlestarPegasus.com: "Kenneth Johnson, writer/director of the first 'V' mini-series on NBC-TV (U.S.) back in the 1980s, is bringing the show back AS A CONTINUATION. Warner Bros. is backing this endeavor. As the script is developed, fans are asked to participate in a letter writing campaign, in the hopes that members of the original series are included. As fans of the original 'Battlestar Galactica' we understand the importance of seeing original cast members/characters back onscreen. Please don't read this and say, 'Oh, someone else will write' or 'Why should I?' The SAME passion for the return of this series exists within 'V' fans as it does with fans of classic 'Battlestar Galactica.' Please help." To participate, be sure to visit the following link at MindPulse.com. Many thanks to Michael for posting the report at Colonial Fleets.
