Save Greendale Committee

Masterlist of Ways to Save Community

2014-05-12T00:32:02Z

Things that Everyone can do:

-Netflix: Go here, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click either "Start Live Chat" or "Call Us" and tell a Netflix representative how much you want them to pick up Community as an original series. They have confirmed that they are taking our responses into account and will relay the information to the higher ups in the company. Also tweet the hashtags #NetflixSaveCommunity, #NetflixSavesCommunity, and #Netflixpickupcommunity. Tell the Netflix representatives about these tags to let them see all the people supporting the show. Information Source: This Reddit Post. Also sign this petition for Netflix to pick up Community. Many people are doing this, although there are reports that they will not pick up Community due to Hulu having rights to it.

-Hulu: Hulu picking up Community is slightly more likely than Netflix. So tweet #HuluSaveCommunity and tell their support that we would love for them to pick up the show.

-Do the same things mentioned above with Amazon Instant Video, Crackle, Comedy Central, TBS, Adult Swim, AOL, Yahoo, and Xbox Entertainment Studios. Idea came from this Reddit Post.

-Twitter: On top of tweeting the hashtags mentioned above, tweet #SixSeasonsAndAMovie, #Savegreendale, and #SaveCommunity everyday. Also, tweet a picture of yourself with a To-Do star with the words "Save Greendale" on it with #GreendaleStars. More info on that here.

-Like the Save Greendale Committee Facebook Page and post on facebook with the same hashtags mentioned above.

-Follow the Save Greendale Committee Blog on Tumblr and post in the hashtags mentioned above.

Things for the more Skilled Fans to Create in Support of the Show:

-Fanart, Save Community Propoganda Posters

-Fan videos

-Fanfiction

-Post your works at central places such as Youtube, DeviantArt, and Archive of Our Own with easilly searchable tags and post them to Reddit and Tumblr for publicity.

Crazy Ideas for Campaigns to get Community Picked Up:

-Start viewing parties of Community on Hulu: Start a campaign to get people to sign up for a free 2 month trial of hulu that you can get for free through the Best Buy website. Then we will designate certain times weekly for a bunch of people to get together and IM, Video chat, and livestream before, during, and after watching an episode. We can have giveaways, games and contests. This would be a great way to bring new fans to Community, and the increased views and subscriptions on Hulu could help motivate them to pick up the show.

-Start a raffle with the prizes being Community merchandise, fanart requests, fanfiction requests, etc. The proceeds will go to a charity such as Big Brothers or Big Sisters to gain publicity for the show and support a cause. This is the same type of thing that the Glee fandom did a while back. If you are interested in helping, sign up here.

-There has been talk of making a Kickstarter to either directly support the show, or donate to a charity as mentioned above.

-Gather at conventions in cosplay in support of the show

-Get a group of writers together to collaboratively write a series of fics like they are episodes for season 6. Not just shipping-focused fics, but full on community episodes written for all fans of community.

-Send canisters of sperm to NBC (Pierce style)

-Start a Treasure Hunt to save Greendale. (I don't know how this would work, but it would be a cool reference to Basic Sandwich)

-Comment below if you have more ideas

Winger Speech

2014-04-24T00:37:39Z

Welcome everyone to our "Save Greendal Committee" community! We are incredibly happy to have you all here. Why are we here? We all share this wonderful common interest, and that's the love for our dear show Community. We love it to the point where saving it has become a goal that we will work hard for. And I know we can do it. Fans have such power, tenacity, and passion that has given Community the run it's had. Just look at how close the show has come to an end in the previous years. Fans did that, and fans will do it again. The writers and actors have given us something great, and we are not going to let such a quality show be taken from our TV's. Whatever you have to contribute, whether it's ideas, taking on assignments, or just to show your support, it is greatly appreciated.

Read the info under the cut so you can get a basic idea of how this comm is going to work, and some rules we would like you to follow.

Here's what's in this Comm:

Supporters- A list of urls/journals of people who support Community being renewed. You can add your name in the comments.
Task Wall- Lists of the things we have accomplished and the projects that we still need to get done.
Committee Meeting- Where we discuss projects and ideas and hand out assignments.
Annie's Notes- Notes taken from Committee Meeting discussions so you can easily read up on what you've missed.
The Dean's Announcements- Listing any new developments, sucesses, or announcements.
Abed's Meta- A place for you to talk about the show with your fellow fans.

Rules and Guidlines:
-Try to keep your comments to their designated threads. Especially if you are discussing project ideas and announcements. It keeps the community organized and it will be so much easier for us to take notes and keep track of what we're doing.
-Most entries allow comments, but one (Annie's Notes) does. That entry is just there to use as a reference.
- Respect all actors, characters, and ships. We all have our own likes and opinions, and you can express that. This is not the place for bashing or shipper wars, however. If you feel the need to do that, keep it in your own journal/blog.
-Respect each other. Pretty much all for the reasons above. We are all here for the same reason, so remember that.
- Try and stay positive. I know that there are things that might make "Six seasons and a movie" unlikely. But we need to know that we have a chance to keep us motivated. No idea is a bad idea. Some may be out of our abilities to accomplish. Some will take priority over others, but we try to consider everything.

Also, this comm is currently set to not allow entries from non-member mods. Once again, it's to keep things organized and easy to find. We'll probably switch it when an official announcement has been made about Season 6.

See the sidebar for links to our, tumblr, facebook, and petition. We will be adding a twitter and youtube channel eventually.

If you have any questions about the rules/guidlines, comment below. If you have any problems, you can pm me.

Glad to have you here! Thanks!

Committee Meeting

2014-04-23T06:21:25Z

Here is where the committee members discuss our ideas and projects for getting our favorite show on the air for a sixth season. If you have something to bring to the table, then by all means, leave a comment and share your own ideas.

Annie's Notes

2014-04-23T06:07:17Z

Here is where we will be posting a summary of all that we have discussed and what we are planning with the campaign. So if you were absent for a day or two and just want to catch up by doing a quick read through. It will be updated every couple of days, depending on how many new things arise.

APRIL 22

1. Organize groups to go to Subway and express their love for the show.

Make a poll of the most populated cities to figure out where is most convient for fans

Figure out a date/time

Look into getting a cast memeber to show up if we hold one in L.A.

-Yvette is our best bet

2. Make an "Asteroid Collision Countdown" website.

Will countdown the time from now until when NBC holds the Upfront, scheduled May 12th, 2014

Tag line "Only you can stop the asteroid from wiping out humanity"

Still looking for webhost

3. Try to build the fanbase

Talk to everyone you can about watching community

"Meet the Charecters" video where we introduce all the main cast and inlude some of their best lines

Make a action style fan-trailer about an asteroid making it's way toward earth and the Community characters fighting against it.

Use other NBC shows in a video convincing people to watch Community.

Have a video listing what makes the show great and say "Here's why you should watch Community". Compile of favorite moments to get people to laugh.

4. Save Greendale Stars/Posters Project

Make paper stars and posters that say "Save Greendale" on it.

- Maybe take pictures with posters standing infront of Subway

Mail our stars to NBC

Make a video with everyone's pictures to the Dave Mathews song "Ants Marching". Maybe make it a victory video when/if Community gets renewed.

5. Updates

There is a twitter campaign going on brought on by the Save Community blog to tweet #sixseasonsandamovie every day this week at the same time to get it trending.

We had a White House petition going around that got removed, so we moved it to Change.org. Spread the word on it, get as many people as you can to sign it. Try tweeting it to cast members because they might retweet. Gillian Jacobs retweeted the White House petition, so we know that they are willing to help get it noticed.

The Dean's Announcements

2014-04-23T05:57:51Z

Here is where we will be posting announcements regarding the campaign effort. Any new advancements/news, any articles that come out about the state of our chances, the official statement on whether or not the show get's renewed, or simply a chance for us to acknowledge our love for you guys. You'll find it here.

And feel free to add your own findings in the comments!

Abed's Meta

2014-04-23T05:03:41Z

There is reason why we are fighting so hard for this show. It's incredible. It pulls us all together with it's Thursday night hilarity and it's really important to us. Come her to discuss the awesomeness of this show and why we don't want it to end.

Here's just some simple couple rules that should be easy to follow:

no bashing any cast members, characters or ships (you don't have to like it all, and you can express that. But there is a difference between opions and attacks)

be respectful to each other

Honestly, that's it. So, have fun, discuss, and spread the love for this show.
