Here is a roundup of some great things that were posted in our comments. Thanks for the wonderful and overwhelming response! Remember that these sentiments should be sent to NBC, also.

Spencer Ernst created a “trailer” for the campaign:

Last night’s season finale or Journeyman were flat compared with previous weeks. “Perfidia” drew a 3.2/6 in total viewers and a 1.8/6 in viewers 18-49. (Source: Wikipedia) Again, this was to be expected considering the lackluster lead-in and total lack of promotion.  Keep the Rice-a-Roni rolling in so we get a chance to improve that.

Also, there have been some wonderful things posted in the comments that deserve more attention.  I plan to put them in a front page post later tonight.

Here are some reports from across the web on last night’s episode, “The Hanged Man.”

The ratings for Journeyman fell again this week.  “The Hanged Man” pulled a 3.1/5 for total viewers, down from 3.7/6, and a 1.6/4 for viewers 18-49, down from 1.8/6. This is the worst dive of the season, but it is to be expected considering that NBC has given up on promoting the show and that its lead-in, NBC’s latest reality trainwreck, Clash of the Choirs, tanked, failing to beat the two reruns that it was up against.

Don’t forget to watch tonight’s new episode of Journeyman at 10/9c. This episode, “The Hanged Man,” is the first-half two-part season (we hope) finale. The second half, “Perfidia,” will air Wednesday at 10/9c.

And don’t forget to keep those Rice-a-Roni boxes rolling in! There have been a few really creative “letters from the future” posted in the comments.  We’ll try to get a summary of them posted later today.

Reports are pouring in from all over the web that Journeyman has been “cancelled.” But none of the news is any different that what has been reported here. There has been no announcement that the show is canceled.  There is only news that NBC let a deadline pass for picking up the rest of season one.  We should seize this opportunity to let everyone know that we haven’t given up on Journeyman. If you see a news source, whether it is a blog, newspaper or whatever, reporting that Journeyman has been “canceled,” let them know via a comment or e-mail that there is still life, and that SaveJourneyman.net is dedicated to keeping the show alive.

Entertainment Weekly has an article with more information on the season ending episodes of Journeyman, “The Hanged Man” and “Perfidia.” Warning: Contains Spoilers!

Read the complete article.

This certainly makes it sound like the last two episodes will air, despite the concerns of Kristen at E! Online.

Thanks to commenters Juanita and julina for the tip.

Update: Access Hollywood says the final two will air.

There are two remaining episodes, which will still air as scheduled, an NBC rep told Access Hollywood. The episodes will air on December 17 and 19 at 10PM.

Apparently, there was a deadline yesterday for NBC to pick up the rest of the first season, and they let it pass, according to Yahoo.

NBC had until Tuesday to give a full-season pickup to the time-travel drama starring Kevin McKidd. The network let that option lapse, practically canceling the series, which posted its lowest adults 18-49 rating (1.7 rating/8 share) on Monday without a “Heroes” lead-in.

Even worse, Kristin at E! Online is reporting that the show is shut down, and that the last two episodes might not air.

But, we’re not ready to give up! Keep those boxes of Rice-a-Roni flowing into NBC! If the writers’ strike goes on too long there may be a dearth of pilots for next season, and they might be a little more receptive to a new season of a show with grassroots fan support.
