We've done plenty of guerilla marketing in this campaign to save the show... bookmarks in books in the sci-fi section of the library, flyers under windshield wipers, stickers everywhere. But I like that kind of thing and I want to do more. So I'm thinking about doing a highway overpass sign for The Sarah Connor Chronicles,
like this. But what

Cardboard is cheap and often free. Old white bed sheets are used sometimes (wrap a string around a rock in each corner to hang it).
In this political season, a sign like this might just be part of the background noise.
Not that THAT would stop YOU. :D
How do people get attention, with a few words, and get the public to read or watch the "rest of the story" on a website?
"Roxy Bisquaint votes: Write in Sarah Connor!"
Your moniker has fewer negative associations than "Schmacky", even though her videos are quite compelling.
Any other distinctive phrase that could drag Google searchers to consider our show?
How about the most recent date code for Judgement Day (what is it now?), and then we each post it to our blogs and other fora, with the address of savethescc?

If you make the signs, you could do a political message in context to the plot of show. Free Sarah with her face. Ziera Corp Sucks. Or just "no fate". "Recycle your Metal" hehehe, please steal that one one from me.

That was your FIRST mistake, JK.
Judgement Day was delayed after Sarah showed Miles Dyson the error of his ways, and he helped the Connors and Uncle Bob terminate Cyberdyne's developement of Skynet tech from the T1 terminator parts.
In the universe of TSCC, AI technology has reached the "tipping point", or critical mass, where the technology has become sufficiently widespread that self-aware AI has sprung up from several different places: a traffic control system, a chess program, Danny Dyson's (science fair?) project.
John Henry is supposed to be a properly raised "good AI" to protect humanity against the "enfants terribles".

In TSCC everything was going haywire, with multiple AIs, multiple time travels. I can't believe the future war was is ineveitable. I just think they have to track down the right piece and destroy it or train people not to make deadly AIs.

That's like training people not to make nuclear weapons.
We've reached the tipping point.
Too many people are within reach of the threshold.
The genie is out of the bottle.
Pandora's box is open. The only thing remaining in the box is HOPE.

Why it hasn't done it yet, I'm not sure, but it's got something to do with John Henry.

Or not kill Andy Goode! Everything went bad after Derek killed him.

Another thought I had, which is even easier is just to get a sheet of plywood, paint a message on it and lean it up against a road sign. Pull over, set it out there and go. But the overpass sign would be so damn cool. And it would be seen by tens of thousands even if it was taken down after a day.

I'm still reading it. I'm thinking gun clubs, no problem. Cycling fora, probably not so receptive.
