Here's my letter, tried to make it as expansive as possible. It comes out to one page and has lots of ideas in it, feel free to use any of the ideas or comments in your own letter. And let's see Aquaman swim his way onto the CW!
My letter:
Dear Ms. Astroff,
I can not even begin to comprehend why you would pass on the Aquaman Pilot. This is the one show that has been gaining a lot of public interest and has been building up most the hype for the network. There have been some negative speculation on the internet concerning the show, but once the trailer appeared a lot of this negative speculation has disappeared. The trailer was highly promising and seemed more like a trailer for a high budget summer blockbuster than for a TV show. If you had followed through with premiering the trailer with Superman Returns, the show would have brought in a lot of viewers. The cast is great. And from what I saw in the trailer, this could be a really great show. It has action, adventure, comedy and something for everyone.
As for the possibility of not having enough space on the line-up, this obviously can not be the case. From my understanding, the WB and UPN merged to create the CW because it wanted to stand up amongst the other top networks out there. One thing to take note of is that the other networks have shows lined up to eleven o clock at night in some instances. Another available space, which you probably already heard of, is the unnecessary encores of Americas Next Top Model. There is space available in which Aquaman can easily fit into.
The rumors concerning the show have already built a strong fan base around it. And this fan base started building months ago. The negative speculation on the web has been gradually on the decline since the trailer premiered on the internet. Thus, it seems highly likely that if the trailer for Aquaman did premiere with Superman Returns, as originally planned, it would have build a strong fan base months before it even premiered.
It is not too late to add Aquaman to the line-up, whether it is the fall lineup or mid-season. If it is too late for the fall lineup, perhaps mid-season would be the best place to launch the series because this would also add the advantage of having a possible trailer for the show on the Superman Returns DVD.
In conclusion, it is still not too late to add Aquaman to the line up whether it is fall or midseason. The fan base is still strong and is hoping for a miracle that the show will still be picked up. The negative speculation on the net is gradually on the decline. And the hype is still strong, even with the news of it not being picked up. This is a show that lots of fans are looking forward to, including critics who have been labeling it as a sure show for many months now. It would mean a great deal to me and many other fans if we can still see Aquaman swim its way onto the network. There is still time.
Thank you, for taking time out of your busy day to read this.
