This thread is a starter for all new to SE. It will tell you the basics of how to fight for Enterprise:

first you should sign the direct to DVD petition asking for a straight to DVD season of Ent., get your friends to sign too.
Link: DIRECT-TO-DVD PETITION

Sending e-mails and traditional letters is a cornerstone to the campaign. (Please note a lot of this contact info is pretty old and may no longer be valid.):

Leslie Moonves owns Cbs which owns all star trek TV rights:
Email address: leslie.moonves@cbs.com Phone number: 1-323-575-2600 Mailing address:
Mr Leslie Moonves,
7800 Beverly Blvd Los Angeles,
CA 90036-2112

E-mail for CBS: audsvcs@cbs.com

We also found a huge list of minor CBS executives, it can be found here.

David Stapf is an executive at Paramount which owns all theatrical rights to Ent.: Mailing address:
Mr David Stapf
Paramount
Pictures
5555 Melrose Ave.
Los Angeles, CA 90038-3197

Paramount's address:
5555 Melrose Ave.
Hollywood, CA 90038
USA

Spike TV is currently showing TNG, DS9 and Voy so there is a good chance they might show Ent. in syndication or maybe even produce new episodes: Presidents mailing address:
Mr Doug Herzog
President, Spike TV
1515 Broadway
New York, NY 10036

Vice presidents mailing address:
Kevin Kay
Executive Vice President,
Programming & Production Spike TV
1515 Broadway
New York NY 10036

Head of programming e-mail adress: debra.fazio@spiketv.com

Phone:Call (+1) 1-888-767-1090. When the operator comes on tell them you would like SpikeTV.

Sci-fi channel is currently showing Ent. in syndication and there is hope it may produce a new season or perhaps a TV movie or mini-series: E-mail address:feedback@scifi.com Phone: ((+1) 212-413-5679)

If you don't like sending letters many people use post cards, there are many threads containing postcard designs to use.

We always need new ideas and comments on current ideas, please visit the brainstorm thread and the Project ideas section.

We need people to keep things moving and keep up the chatter across the SE section. Don't be shy we accept all ideas and are nice to newbies.

If anyone has anything to add or any questions feel free to post them.

Note to mod squad: Please pin this thread.

Welcome to TU, I hope to see you helping out on E-day. :)

Well there's a lot of advice already here. We always need people to help with our E-day project. If you have any ideas for campaigns you can post them. If you have a myspace page you can become a friend of ours. Look around and read some threads, get familiar with what we do.

Update: The project dubbed E-day is our current focus, here's a brief description:

E-day is a one day event for Save Enterprise, its basic concept is to get as many people as possible to do at least one thing to help save Enterprise on E-day. To simplify this we have several official activities with most of the work done for you (they can be found in the active SE projects section) but you do not need to limit yourself to them. E-day is also intended to serve as a one day online festival for all Enterprise fans, whether or not they supprot SE, to remember and celebrate the show they love, hence activities 3 and 4. E-day requires a lot of promotion so tell anyone you know who might be interested about it.

A link to the thread for it can be found in the above post. Go to the active SE project section to find the threads for its 5 activties.

Another good way to help is to promote the campaign and anything else related to Enterprise any chance you get, anywhere you can.

like fans want a comic book done so you talk about having an Enterprise comic made in the Comic Book section or talk about what you want to see in the future in the SE Goal thread etc

Hi, What a pity there is no season five! As a new Enterprise fan I just found out the show has been cancelled. I bought the DVDs and after watching I couldn't believe this great show's story line is not getting any further. Then I stumbled upon this site and I must say i'm impressed with the amount of work that has been done. It's quite amazing that the fans managed to aquire more than 3 million dollar to pay for the next season!

One more thing is bothering me though: I don't understand why the campaign wasn't a succes. I think there is a future in letting the fans pay up front for a new season. However, I think the problem is that you can't ask people to pay before enough money has been collected. I think people are wary of paying for something that may not even be there in the future at the risk of not getting their money back.

Couldn't we make a site that would register people that are willing to pay to inventorise if there is enough financial power with the fans? Then only after this is done ask for the money? I think surely, if every star trek fan would pay like $50 worldwide, there would be enough money for another four seasons!

Well, that's probably too late now anyway. At least I signed the direct to DVD petition...

The problem wasn't that we couldn't get enough money. The studio refused to accept what we had. They made it very clear they didn't want the money.

SE has now shut down, but I still think there's hope. You can still send letters or post cards and request another season. You can still support Enterprise fan productions.
