As writer of fantasy and Sci Fi news and entertainment related articles, I receive frequent requests to lend my name to all kinds of causes and products. Admittedly most of the stuff that fills my e-mail inbox is crap. It seems everybody wants you to say something good about their cause.
Well today I actually received an e-mail about a cause that I can....honestly, put my backing into.
It seems that a group of fans has put together a website to gather support for their quest to get the nationally syndicated program, "Cinema Insomnia" back on the air in the San Francisco area. Now, I know that sounds strange. Isn't "Cinema Insomnia" produced in Sacramento? Didn't you just say that the show was syndicated around the country?
The answer to both of those questions is....yes. However, the program that is produced in Northern California, isn't on the air there. I personally have talked to the shows host, Mr. Lobo, about this enigma many times. He has always been amazed that his program has gained popularity is several regions of the country, yet it has remained somewhat unknown in his own back yard.
Well, now maybe something will be done about that.
It is only fitting that after the passing of legendary Bay area Horror Host, Bob Wilkins, that Lobo and "Cinema Insomnia" enter the very same homes that cherished Wilkin's "Creature Features.".
In fact it is even more apropos, when you consider that Mr. Lobo, himself, was mentored by the late Bob Wilkins.
Most fans already know that I consider "Cinema Insomnia" to be a hidden treasure, in the mixed-up television circus of reality shows and boring sitcoms.So, it would stand to reason that I would jump aboard this cause with both feet.
OKAY FANS! KNOW IS THE TIME TO GET "CINEMA INSOMNIA" ON THE AIR IN THE BAY AREA! HECK....LETS GET THE SHOW ON THE AIR ACROSS THE COUNTRY!
