THE MISSION OF THE MOVEMENT
The mission of this movement is to spread the word about The Game to people who are unfamiliar with the show. If enough buzz is created its bound to reach some of those households with Nielsen meters which is the only way to increase the ratings.
The Game performs adequately in comparison to other CW shows, but there is no reason why it shouldn't be among the top 3 shows on the network. The leading shows, America's Next Top Model, Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill and even the upcoming 90210, target the same demographic: teenaged girls and young women. The Game appeals to men and women from teens to 30 somethings.
It's up to us diehard fans to get the word out. It's very simple to do. Forward this page to a random MySpace friend every now and then. Tell your friends, family members, coworkers and classmates to give the show a shot for a couple of episodes. You know that is all it will take to get them hooked.
So lets get this movement started to make sure the show is renewed early the next go round rather than in the final hour as has been the case the last two seasons. We dont want to let the show slip through our fingers and start a letter writing campaign AFTER its cancelled.
THE STATE OF AFFAIRS AT THE CW
The CW is currently struggling for survival. UPN and WB were operating at a loss when they merged to form The CW. The situation has not improved as a result of the merger. The CW has cut its broadcast week from six days to five which is why The Game will move to Fridays in the Fall.
The CW is coming in last in ratings among the major networks all 6 nights, even trailing behind Univision most nights. CW executives are reportedly in talks with Nielson Media Research to insure that the data is being compiled and reported fairly. Nielsen meters 25,000 households to determine what EVERYONE is watching. No matter how elaborate their mathematical formulas may be there is no way to accurately report what millions of households are watching by the viewing habits of 25,000 people.
While this movement is specifically focused on The Game, it would be extremely difficult to save the show if the network shuts down. As such, The Game would benefit from improved ratings for all of the programming on the CW network.
