The Black Donnellys Fans Contacting HBO on Fri. Aug 3rd and Mon. Aug 6th.

With the 4th shipment of crackers expected to arrive at HBO on August 3rd, it becomes increasingly and always important to vocalize our support for a second season of The Black Donnellys. This is crucial especially with networks watching the success of the future DVD sales on September 4th. We have shipped a total of 670 lbs of crackers with 80 people donating $1,694.63 thus far.

We need you to call, write and email on Friday, August 3rd and Monday, August 6th. Of course, you can email and write and send letters throughout the weekend. I know you guys have all done this already with NBC in April, but now it's time to pick up the pace with HBO. The idea is to vocalize our support in numbers and prove that The Black Donnellys is far from "dead".

Straight from HBO's Web site:

How can I contact HBO to express my opinions about their programming?

You may contact HBO's Consumer Affairs Department at 212-512-1208 Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM until 5:00 PM Eastern Time. You can also write to us using the link below:
