Save Our Spirited Campaign Support
On October 14th it was announced that Spirited was not to be renewed by FOXTEL. The very notion of this shocked and outraged fans, and continues to do so.
On October 15th Spirited-TV.net posted an open letter of protest, SOS: Save Our Spirited, through which fans could attach their digital signatures and have their say on FOXTEL’s disappointing decision. This was to give the common man a voice, to protest and let their opinions be heard.
Throughout the campaign Spirited-TV.net has produced many Spirited wallpapers to help promote the campaign and as milestone motivators for those recruiting fans, friends and family to sign our letter of protest. However we have also called upon fans to get creative, to show in their own unique ways why they love the show. On this page you will find art in many shapes and forms, all with one common theme, SAVE OUR SPIRITED!

One month on; a continued call to action & an update on how much ‘Save Our Spirited’ has achieved so far.

Taking a hit for the team, we thought of ridiculous Spirited themed tasks for Kirri to complete once we hit certain signature milestones. For 500 signatures, she rocked out to Skyhooks a la The King and for 1,000 she filmed her own hilarious cooking show spoof and made Frankfurter Spectacular in the style of Suzy Darling.
A Reminder of What We’re Fighting For, by imabagpuss
His Eyes, Her Heart…
His eyes are reaching out
They drink her smile and innocence
A glance whispering a feeling
The discovery of love which is then restricted
They’re together by a force
Many are lucky to witness but some never see
Sharp dialogue
Familiarity shuddering through separate planes
A dream, a touch forbidden
Her heart is many shades of gold
With a hardening core from years of neglect
His eyes force this worm back into its hole
Her chin is lifted
Soaring birds being hunted from below
Can they reach the safe heights?
A sanctuary, a cool place
A riff not misguided
Perfection and understanding and oneness
A moment filled with consequences
A higher value singing their names..
Endless. Timeless is their connection.

Lix Bacskay from Wealth & Hellbeing Creative has put her talent in graphic design to good use by creating these amazing campaign posters. Please (click to enlarge and) use them in any way you see fit to promote the SOS campaign. Save and then share them on facebook, forums, blogs…We think they’re so good that you could even print them out for flyer distribution!
Dear Foxtel,
We have in mind some chiding, God in favour, law abiding,
In relation to the drama you deny a Season Three,
Sit down, sit down, we beckon, it’ll only take a second,
We’ll be friends again in no time, if you’d only hear our plea.
You claim that it’s an ending; please don’t think us condescending,
But we disagree completely, we believe that there is more,
There is yet another ballad in the heart of Henry Mallet,
And a hope in Suzy Darling you so shamefully ignore.
And if not for the story, then for those who shaped its glory,
For the brilliant Matt and Claudia who’ll gladly do a third,
For the writers and the actors who are overwhelming factors
In our Pay TV subscriptions. Mr Walsh, sir, have you heard?
Let us voice our utter sadness that you have, in all your madness,
Given up on such a beauty that should never be let go,
Now, we’ll leave you to your musings with the weight of what you’re losing,
And we’ll get along in no time, if you’d only save our show.
Jess, Nov 2011.
