TO ALL FANS OF PTL
Petition
To: MGM/UA and the SciFi Channel
In 1999, The SciFi Channel canceled "Poltergeist; the Legacy", which was one of the best
programs to air in recent years. The program had a cast of fine actors whom fans miss already
and it had run for four straight years, which engendered a loyal fan base. Fans of PTL urge
The SciFi Channel and MGM to reconsider their decision and to return "Poltergeist; the Legacy"
to its former status as a regular program and to air a 5th Season.

PTL sponsor's list
Here are the company/CEOs names, snail mail addresses,
telephone numbers and emails of 4th season sponsors of
"Poltergeist; the Legacy". Please write, email,
and/or phone them to let them know how much you
appreciated their sponsorship of PTL (spell out the
name of the show in any email or letter.) Tell them,
nicely, how disappointed you are that the show was
cancelled by SciFi. Be polite and be sure to mention
the name of the product the company was advertising
(if you can, highlight the product name in "bold",
since this will be sure to catch their eye.) If you
have used the product, be sure to tell them, in
glowing terms, how much you enjoyed it. (A nice
"kiss" is called for - you will catch more flies with
honey than with vinegar.) If I have provided two
names, cc the other person at the bottom of the
letter, and if there is no specific name, just do an
attention line to: Attn: "Poltergeist; the Legacy"
Television Sponsor. Also, cc Metro-Goldwyn Mayer,
Trilogy, SciFi and Showtime. If you are a fan of a
particular cast member, mention that fact to the
sponsor and suggest that if PTL is brought back, that
that actor be brought back, too. Ask permission from
the sponsor to post their response (or, it is implied
that you will remark on the lack of one). Fans, don't
let PTL and each other down; take the time to DO
something. If we work together, we might be able to
resurrect PTL and/or get a "made-for-TV" movie (or,
at least, get our favorite actors more work and good
parts.) It is worth a try!
