I just got this email from [email]

----------------------------------------------

Greetings.

I, Stewie Griffin, hereby recruit you as a mercenary in "Operation Save Family Guy."

That's right, Fox plans to remove "Family Guy" from the air effective May 2. The bloody network has impeded my plans once too often! This, I fear, will be the fatal blow to me and my cause. It is very possible that my television program will be CANCELLED unless drastic measures are taken!

It's not too late to rally! With your help, I can prevail. Here is your mission:

1. SEND LETTERS AND E-MAIL to Fox demanding that they SAVE "FAMILY GUY." Do this more than once. Do it EVERY DAY until they come to recognize the error of their ways. I know for a fact that Fox does read all e-mails and letters and takes them quite seriously. I've had my secretary, Mabel, (that's right, I have one) include the pertinent addresses and information below.**

2. FORWARD THIS MESSAGE to everyone you know and have them do the same.

3. TELL EVERYONE you know to watch "Family Guy" TUESDAYS at 8:30 pm ET/PT on FOX!

You have your instructions. Go to it! As a show of my thanks for your efforts, I promise I shall not kill you. For a while, anyway.

Your lord and master,

Stewie

** HOW TO CONTACT FOX

SNAIL MAIL works! Letters are the most effective thing you can do for my cause! Write to:

Mr. Sandy Grushow Chairman Fox Broadcasting Company 10201 West Pico Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90035

If you are unable to write a letter to FOX, please E-MAIL them at:

[email] (***BUT: DO NOT FORWARD THIS E-MAIL MESSAGE AS FOX WILL NOT READ FORWARDED MESSAGES OR ANYTHING WITH AN ATTACHMENT!!)

*Include a phrase such as "Save Family Guy" in your Subject heading.

So they imbedded a desperate plea into an episode??

This is so sad, it needs no further comment from me.
