Tribune, which has operated as partner to Disney-ABC on the show from the beginning, owns stations in seven of the top ten markets and representing 35% of the country. 'Legend of the Seeker' Renewed For Season Twoīy Paige Albiniak - Broadcasting & Cable, 10:04:00 PM MTĭisney-ABC Domestic Television has renewed its fantasy action hour, Legend of the Seeker, on Tribune Broadcasting’s owned stations for next fall, according to Disney-ABC Domestic Television Distribution President Janice Marinelli. With the added motivation brought on by an endorsement from Terry Goodkind, the group has managed and continues to manage several projects in an effort to make a Season 3 for "Legend of the Seeker" a reality.

LEGEND OF THE SEEKER 3 REGIONS TV
"Legend of the Seeker" is a fantasy TV show, based on author Terry Goodkind's "Sword of Truth" book series. "Legend of the Seeker" Party at Dragon*Con: we managed to secure the last consuite for a "Legend of the Seeker" sponsored party. Planning on doing the same for D*C if funds allow.Īrt Show: We've been encouraging artists to apply to have their fanart displayed at the Comic Con Art Show. Volunteers will also be distributing the iTunes cards (including in costume!). Posters: we'll have 1000 tear away posters with this design (500 for SDCC, 500 for D*C).Įpisodes Giveaway: 500 iTunes cards with "Prophecy & Destiny" distributed at the freebie table for SDCC. Here are some of the efforts we have worked on so far: Unfortunately, just like in the US, the international ratings sank into the abyss.įan conventions offer the perfect opportunity to introduce new viewers to "Legend of the Seeker." Since the two largest cons, Comic Con International (San Diego, July) and Dragon*Con (Atlanta, September), happen within weeks from each other, our project group knew we had to act quickly to make sure we got the most out of campaigning at those cons. But they’re misled by the early international ratings which, like the early US ratings data was quite good. The FlashForward faithful will counter that Starz likes shows that will be big draws internationally and that FlashForward fits that bill. I’d say there’s 100% chance that didn’t happen like that. “Exclusive Home of a show that premiered to millions on ABC and then lost most of them,” doesn’t have much of a marketing ring to it.įlashForward’s hardcore fans are running wild based on comments by someone they don’t know who claims Starz told them they are aggressively seeking to acquire FlashForward. At least DirecTV can use Damages as a marketing tagline: “Exclusive home of the Emmy Award winning Damages!” Starz can’t do that with Legend of the Seeker, and certainly can’t do that with FlashForward. It is at least a period piece and Starz has been big on those lately (“Spartacus,” “The Pillars of the Earth,” and the upcoming “Camelot.” I suppose if they worked the phrase “By Jupiter’s cock,” into the dialogue and injected a lot of nudity there is a case to be made. Legend of the Seeker fans see their show as being compatible with Spartacus: Blood and Sand. Sure, where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire, but in this case you’d need to be smoking what the FlashForward and Legend of the Seeker fans are to see it. But that means I’m still about 99% dismissive. Given my track record with Damages and DirecTV, I won’t dismiss these notions completely. The rumors persist that both Legend of the Seeker and FlashForward will wind up on Starz.
