The last two episodes of Journeyman didn’t end up with great ratings, which can mostly be blamed on poor lead-ins, and the COMPLETE LACK of promotion by NBC. For a fall finale, they did absolutely nothing to let viewers know what was going on.
It doesn’t give me much hope.
But there are efforts still going on out there, and the video above is another way people are trying to get the word out. It’s gotten over 5500 views and 49 comments, so people are out there who love this show.
Jennifer left us a comment a few days ago, with all kinds of links to ways to save the show and where people are talking about it. I decided to take that comment write this post out of it, plus link to the YouTube video and once again offer ways to help save the show.
The biggest method right now is to send boxes of Rice-A-Roni to the NBC studio. If you want to learn more about this, visit the campaign page for it on SaveJourneyman.net.
I’ve already helped a bit with the bulk ordering of Rice-A-Roni boxes. It’s a pretty easy way to get involved. You can either donate money to have someone else send them in bulk, or send them yourself.
You can also write letters and SaveJourneyman.net will have all that info on their site. There have been some pretty cool letters sent, including one that looks like a script and another that acts like it was sent three years in the future.

MO, thanks for posting these links! The Capn appreciates you broadcasting the news to save his favorite new show!!! For some reason, its like NBC doesnt even watch this show, because if they did how could it possibly ever be cancelled?
Maybe we should tap on the talent of the guy who did this You tube video to produce new versions of the show to show on you tube. God knows NBC doesn’t seem to be enough on the ball to know that it has a sleeping giant on its hand. This is great programming that isn’t getting a fighting chance.

NBC stands for Nothing But Cheapskates! You cannot expect a more-cerebral-than-average show to work on a brain-dead network…it is that simple. It may not be feasible, but let’s “travel” away from NBC and start canvassing SciFi. Trying to put this show on non-network TV and have the finances to keep up the show’s premise and quality, as well as retaining the writing staff, could present issues…but it is CERTAINLY worth a try…
Just an FYI to my readers, that was another Mike posting the comment…
But I pretty much agree with him
MO – I thought you came out of the closet? Oh, nevermind…
Funny guy…
