You can help BSG win an Emmy!
Would you like to see Battlestar Galactica get an Emmy? I know I would! Check out the post over at the Yahoo Group for SyFyPortal:
"When was the last time a serious science-fiction show was nominated for a major prime-time Emmy?"
"You'll have to think pretty far back ... "
"While there has been some quality television series on the air that should've at least been given a glance, the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences has virtually ignored genre television. Well, fans of the new "Battlestar Galactica" series on SciFi Channel think it's time for that to end."
"Michael Hinman. founder of www.SyFyPortal.com, is organizing a campaign of "Battlestar Galactica" fans. Their goal? To get the attention of the talented men and women who help choose what shows, actors and crews will get recognized, and which ones don't."
"This group of fans will place a full-page, full-color advertisement in the May 31 edition of The Hollywood Reporter, one of the major trade publications in Hollywood. This particular issue of the publication is its special Emmy preview where studios do their best to get the attention of those who can write their name on the ballot."
