Baby Boomer Santa links

I want y'all to know: I don't advocate piracy at all.

I'm putting Baby Boomer Santa online because we're long-suffering fans, and NBC should have done the right thing and put it online themselves. Hello? We have a Christmas special coming now in April?

So here you are, my friends. Happy Holidays; Merry Christmas. It's because of the love from all of you that we have some good cheer!

I got some Christmas time for me! I got some Christmas time for a tree!

CommuniCon Date: February 9-10, 2013

Hello Communies!

Listen, we were all losing our minds on twitter today, screaming from sheer joy in all caps for an hour when our dear @CommuniConNews announced the dates for CommuniCon. PLEASE follow this account on twitter. It's completely gonzo amazeballs and we're so happy.

Here's the FAQ, straight from @CommuniConNews:

A very lovely teaser poster:

Listen, it doesn't matter if we do or don't get a Season 5 anymore. I mean, okay, it's stupid and horrible that this beautiful show gives us an attack of abdominal cramps and tears every six months from all the STRESS for no reason, WHATEVER.

But the fans, cast, crew, and writers have more than enough love to go around.

Here are the details from the AV Club via NBC Street Team on Pinterest, and YES I will update the UnstoppableCommunity website soon:

HOLY CHEESES! I LOVE EVERYBODY! SEE Y'ALL IN L.A. IN FEBRUARY!

Love,
Cat

How I feel right now:

"How long does peyote last? I'm asking for a friend."

Blog post so Bobrow can see my 411

My Darlings,

So it's Thursday already, God help us all. I can't get on my island (I live in Ventnor CIty NJ, RIGHT where the stupid thing hit), because the sewer system is on overload already and extra people will make the sewage flow into the street. My Pathmark in Ventnor Heights, 10 minutes around the corner, got 8 feet of water. I'm literally losing my mind; my best friend has a house in Ventnor Heights and she can't get any information on whether it's OK or not. 

I spent the week with friends far inland. Aside from one 45 minute power outage, we had warm food, hot showers, live music, NewsRadio DVDs, laundry, phones and computers. We got out just in time. My Granddaddy keeps telling me to be thankful that we're all safe and healthy. My cat is happy. As you read the rest of what I have to say today, keep in mind that my relatives are saying that to me over and over. Haaa! Also, please feel free to forward this to other Community fans.

We're trying to go back today, but (gentlemen, please cover your eyes) my monthly hell business just started up and I'll be damned if I drive two hours in pain. So while the Advil kicks in, I'm gonna write to you guys and pour my heart out.

There's a big benefit concert on NBC this Friday, 8-9pm, with money going to the Red Cross to help New Jersey residents affected by Sandy. Bruce, Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, et al are going to be on air.

If I didn't have a wedding Friday night, maybe I'd see if I could play violin on the show. I played with Willie Nelson and kd Lang, so it's not like if what I'm saying is completely out of the realm of possibility. I was going to try to see if they could use some of my husband's prints for fundraising, also. He did a poppy print for St. Jude one year, and it did really well. My husband's website: www.artofkuzma.com, minehttp://www.catherineboydviolinist.com. My anxiety level is so bad, I just can't put it all together.

Truth is, I've been unable to go to sleep every night. I'm worried sick about my husband's artwork in our garage and in his store on Ocean City (which we just found out got 2 feet of water). We're not allowed to go and check on anything yet, we're not allowed to go back on these islands for whatever reason (looting, potential poops in the street, we're tenants in the store and the owners are letting insurance adjusters in first instead of us). It takes mold only 12 hours to take root. On top of the raw sewage and toxic chemicals, oh God I'm crying again. We may have lost 200K of artwork. I pray that it's less. Not knowing is making us crazy.

I'm worried sick about mold growing on my husband's artwork. I cry when I think of the food spoiling in our fridge. It's not like we're super wealthy people here. I feel guilty for staying on this island all this time so I could keep working in my rock band (I quit the band recently and am now planning on moving us inland).

We're supposed to stay with a friend tonight, who lives about 20 minutes away from our place. There's a tree across his driveway, so thank God my instinct was to take shelter far inland. I have a wedding Friday and Saturday night, so it will be good to be closer by my jobs with power, water, heat, computer.

I know I'm rambling; forgive me.

If there's some way you guys could organize a hashtag for Friday that directs people to the NBC fundraiser and the Red Cross website for donations, especially the New Jersey sector, I would be very grateful. Snow, Jon, Jennifer and Splais on the emails (Ashleigh, Jon, Jennifer, and Shawn) are all beautiful Redditors. I've found that the hashtags travel well on reddit, and maybe then tell everyone to spread it as many forms of social media as they can, OK? Some people call me "Captain" even though I don't see myself like that. But tell the others: the "Captain" is down right now. All hands on deck. I am actually in a very bad situation and need help; it's no joke. I honestly perceive the Red Cross as one of the more stable, honest organizations to give to, so this concert and effort makes a lot of sense to me.

I'm sitting here, thinking if there's some way I can make this easier. Maybe a hashtag suggestion? #RedCrossCommunity with a link to main red cross donation link in the tweet?

YOU GUYS are my Community. Right now, the "Community" part of the hashtag is all of you. I'm in tears as I type this.

I don't know how much I can do today except RT stuff, but if you tell the world even a tiny part of my story (please leave out the Advil part), THIS is what the Community fandom is really about. 

I love you guys. Right now, I really need you.

Love,

Cat

10/26 NBC Community Social Media Plans

Hi guys!

Listen, last Friday's hashtag, #Darkest401, was a smash success. We trended #2 in the US and #5 worldwide, for an hour or two. Plus, there were some AMAZING pretend versions of the unaired episode, and both Yvette Nicole Brown and Andy Bobrow tweeted their enjoyment of our escapade.

By popular request, we're doing (#)Darkest402 this Friday, too!

1) Remove parentheses only at 7:30pmEST on Friday, 10/26, and tweet lightly for an hour.

2) Tweet as much as you like, and RT other people's tweets at 8:30pmEST.

3) Only one hashtag per tweet, and we'll rocket up there again.

4) Until Friday, please share this plan on every social media platform that you can, OK? If you're short of time, you can use the links from the main website (2nd link below).

Here's the Reddit link:

http://www.reddit.com/r/community/comments/11y79p/darkest402_twitter_hashtag/

And here's the main website link:


FOR GREENDALE!

10/19 NBC Community Social Media Plans

TL;DR (with a big thank-you to Fringe): Tweet (#)Darkest401 Friday 10/19/12.

Guidelines:
1) Remove parentheses at 7:30pmEST (to preserve the power of the hashtag) and tweet lightly for an hour

2) Tweet as much as you like, starting at 8:30pmEST

3) Use only that one hashtag in each tweet. Any more hashtags than that will reduce the tweet's power.

4) Why not say hello to the ad sponsors?

Guys, the UK "Community" fan who put this together on Reddit is my personal hero.

Here's a link to the website, with all the details:

http://www.UnstoppableCommunity.com/10_19_Social_Media_Work.html

Also, I'd like to point out the lovely work that @SuperSarah33, @SmoochyDaisy52, @UhOhMorsheDios, and @Dramakim did today:

1) Scroll down to 10/18/12 and observe all the joy from the Pen Awards, which @Danielletbd delivered to the NBC Community cast today:
http://UnstoppableCommunity.tumblr.com

2) Here's @DramaKim's lovely turn, representing "Community" fans very well, in a @Vulture debate/cage match with a Dr. Who and Real Housewives fan:

http://www.vulture.com/2012/10/real-housewives-community-doctor-who-which-is-best.html

Excuse me now, while I go die from happiness. Cremate me when I die, spread my ashes on the Trinity River in Fort Worth Texas, THANK YOU.

"Community" fans are the BEST IN THE WORLD.

Love,
Catherine

URGENT: PR instructions for 30 Rock kazoo serenade and straitjacket escape, Thursday 10/4

UPDATE: I need help spreading this event around on all the social media sites, and also finding all the emails for EVERY network's evening news PLUS NYC radio stations.

Here is the link for the public, which I need sent around ASAP: http://www.UnstoppableCommunity.com/10_4_30_Rock_mob.html

Here is the link to this blog, to solicit help from others for PR work today:
http://savecommunitynow.blogspot.com


Dear Fans (and our friend Sean),

There is a LOT on my plate right now. I need some help getting the word out about our kazoo serenade and straitjacket escape this Thursday 10/4, 1pm. This is an urgent situation, and this is your official mayday. Please forward this email to every Community fan and NYC videographer you know immediately. Also, email me at nayacat@yahoo.com immediately if you can help, or know a videographer who can help.


Main webpage for the event; please include this in any tweets that go out. http://www.UnstoppableCommunity.com/10_4_30_Rock_mob.html If you're finding help for us, please use this blog link.

1) I want to get us on the evening news.

a) The press release is at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1f3h8xqyxfJnhhICxGM5yLW5oIOKG_kVBQQmSnKL4OFw/edit

b) If you open the document and select all the words, then copy into an email, it's better than just a link.

c) I need to find the news desks. All of them. Any help finding any network news desk, especially in NYC, is an urgent thing.

d) We can reach out to all the NYC newspapers, magazines, radio stations, etc.

2) I have the list of all the bloggers and newspapers that covered the event back in December, so I'll reach out to them with the press release now. EDIT: done.

3) I need practical help with tweeting the cast. Please find my last tweet at @violincatherine, copy and paste it to each Community cast member. This is most important today. EDIT: done. Yvette, Ganz, and Bobrow are BATMAN. If you'd like to retweet my most recent tweet to @JoelMcHale so he can finally see the darn thing in the sea of tweets he gets, that would be wonderful. Go to @violincatherine for the tweet. Thank you!

4) I have a dream of all of us going to the Today Show on Thursday morning. Kristina, who helped me write the press release, also gave me suggestions for how to figure out those email addresses. don't know who among the fans is available for that. I could bring a mandolin (I don't have a ukulele) and help with some chords. EDIT: emailed, waiting for response.

5) I need to email East Coast AP, Reuters, big news agencies

6) I have the emails for the 30 Rock store, plus all the NBC and Sony bigwigs. I can email them the press release, too. EDIT: done.

7) You have the previous email lists of fans, right? Plus we have Reddit and all the other social media (twitter, Facebook, pinterest, tumblr, etc). If you are on Reddit, please put this link up. I'll do my best to glean the contact information from the spreadsheet ASAP and try to put more together. 

a) I could use some help with an email and tweet. EDIT: email and tweet are done.

b) We can start sending this around; BIGGEST focus needs to be on other fans tweeting the cast for a retweet. I need to come up with a clean tweet. Any help is SO welcome.

8) I need to double check the Craigslist post and see if it needs to be renewed. EDIT: done.

9) Please send this blog post around to peeps that you think might be helpful; link is http://savecommunitynow.blogspot.com

Thank you, love you, owe you.

xoxo

#SIXSEASONSANDAMOVIE!

 

My favorite writers are back. Ahhhh.

My heart healed 75% today because 4 of my favorite writers are back.
Megan Ganz, Andy Bobrow, Steve Basilone, and Annie Mebane are returning for Season 4.

Thank you, Lord.

Also, I sent an angry tweet to the @GuarascioPort account today. Some frightened fans think this account is real, and are threatening to boycott the show. I asked the owners of the account to label their profile "Parody Account." It's not even important if it's funny or not. My entire timeline was freaking out over losing fans to a misguided show boycott. The twitter study group has been through enough this week. It's not a lot to ask.

This should be obvious, but we've all had a truly horrible week. I can understand other people overreacting. (Ahem.) I was so ill last week, and I love Dan Harmon so much, and I was so invested with our Save the Show movement, that I became the Hulk, for God's sake. My heart was broken.

So we continue to cycle through the 5 stages of grief, my friends. I'm not saying that I will cease my lifelong boycott of Sony and NBC stuff, or that I'm not plotting some clever thing in protest. Oh no. BUT I'm starting to feel normal again. Also, I NEED a picture of Bobrow in leather pants. Sex GOD.

@OccamsBlazer on the AV Club board posted this bit of wonder, which is Radiohead songs rewritten as Community songs. He says @Automatic_Taglines and Evil Jeff helped. Enjoy.

Dear Fans,

Our friend @Lightening_Bug put a lovely Make a Wish donation plan in place for us!

Street Team!

Here's my Pinterest Street Team board: http://pinterest.com/violincatherine/nbc-community-street-team/
@SmoochyDaisy52, @Greendale_Love and @MsDaisySteiner (Pinterest board: http://pinterest.com/msdaisysteiner/greendale-is-where-i-belong/) helped with all these ideas today.

@SmoochyDaisy52 says she is the Britta in the Street Team, and I am Jeff. Feel free to call yourself any other name at Greendale. Multiples are OK; no fighting, children!

The original impulse for a Street Team comes from Sherlock fans. They post chalk graffiti and flyers everywhere, then put an image of the post on a google map. (See #4 and #5 below, or just click on the top Pinterest link.)

Rock band street teams: distribute flyers/stickers, sell merch at shows, send emails out, call TV/radio stations.

Street marketing in Europe sometimes involves people in strange costumes, engaging passersby in social media buy-in to win contests. Now a bald cap and a gaga dress beckon me.

1. Any fan can join the Street Team. You don't have to do anything, OK? You can just say you're in it. It's Greendale!
2. If you want to throw some silly ideas, we need idea people. If you want to RT, we need retweeters. If you want to do more, then do more.
3. I guess I need to make some funny flyers for us, then. 
4. Vandal that I am, I bought some Easter-egg chalk at the dollar store tonight. (There were 2 other ladies in the dollar store, buying neon silly string to vandalize a friend's car. Rapscallions!) I'm planning on tagging various buildings with chalk graffiti, taking pictures, and posting it on the Interactive Street Team map.
5. And here's the map, which is also on the Pinterest board: http://bit.ly/xvEs8c 
6. I saw some cool street team and street marketing ideas on the Internet earlier today. 
7. @MsDaisySteiner on chalk graffiti tag and name of Street Team:  "My suggestions Graffiti- "NBC's Community is streets ahead". Team name - Streets Ahead team." Also,  "Greendale is where YOU belong" or "Greendale wants YOU" and maybe a hashtag so people can find more info."
8. I liked #MyHeartBelongsToGreendale, but Daisy's idea is better.
9. @SmoochyDaisy52 wants a puppy parade. YES. Maybe team up with local ASPCA/animal shelters?
10. @Balen13 conjured the actual Greendale amusement park. WIth a big paintball course. I see a permanent blanket fort in the adjoining hotel. Plus a campus, classes, lectures, assignments.
11. @SmoochyDaisy52 said we should have stickers. @TeamAsunder made some great round icons for Abed4President, so I'm going to find some sticky paper and print some out.
12. I think we should all write thank you notes to Uncle Bob Greenblatt, CEO of NBC, for putting the show back on the air. Thank you, Uncle Bob!
13. It would be funny to call all our local TV and radio stations and talk to them about NBC Community
14. I like the idea of sending a ton of emails/tweets to parallel fandoms. 
15. Going back to the straight rock band idea, we could rally around the merch and @nbcstore for something, too.
16. Well hey, I'm treating the show like a struggling rock band. Why not?
17. Let me know if you have any other ideas. The sillier, the better!

Love, 

Streets Ahead Street Team "Jeff"

Cougar Town + Community Viewing Party!

URGENT, please post in craigslist today: scroll down 4 short paragraphs to bold header. Follow step by step directions. A tweet to me at @violincatherine with the city you covered keeps me from double posting in that city, OK? All #Communitown hands on deck, please! UPDATE: Here's the NYC craigslist post, so you can see this baby live! (Posts are now in Baton Rouge, San Diego, Chicago, NYC, Philadelphia, Austin, Boston, Phoenix, Dallas, San Antonio, and Ann Arbor: http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/eve/2910742133.html). Thank you, Pirate @balen13, Batman @nwahs086 and sweet Aggie @jenniferworthen!

Tweet to them, say hi on Facebook, and buy something if it's a fit for you. Let them know that an ad buy on our fine show gets them a LOT of buzz!

Please donate wine corks and buy some Subway sandwiches with #Communitown. I'm also going to GMA for the Cougar Town rally on 4/6! http://savecougartown.blogspot.com/

Here's a spreadsheet to keep and help me fill out. I just filled tonight's craigslist fan work in the map that's at the upper left. Please feel free to add online work and real-world flyers to the map. We need blue pins across the midwest and south, OK? http://bit.ly/wYEhxe

OK, here we go. Communitown fans, unite! 

1) Go here and find a city that strikes your fancy, but a focus on the South and Midwest will help our Nielsen push: http://www.craigslist.org/about/sites

2) We are most interested in targeting Nielsen families by US Census areas. Scroll through the list down the page, and try to fill in all top areas by population if you can: Yes, I am a nerd. Click on the map, note how it overlays craigslist cities. NIELSEN!

3) Click on "events" under "community"

4) Click on "post" at upper right corner

5) Click "events," a city if specified, a location if specified

6) fill in 2012/4/18 to 2012/5/2 for dates (or use today's date to 2 weeks from now, alright?), 

7) use this blogpost title for the title: Cougar Town + Community Viewing Party!

8) Give a specific location

9) put your main email in the reply line. I suggest making it anonymous

10) Cut and paste from below this numbered list to the very end into the body of the post.

10) click continue a couple of times, then publish

11) IMPORTANT: go to your email and click the link, then click that you accept craigslist terms, to make it live. 

12) If you get any crap from craigslist, change a few words around. If you get REALLY stuck, tweet me at @violincatherine.

13) SAVE OUR SHOWS! LET'S GO!

Dear New and Old Fans,<br><br>

For time-strapped people, here's a summary! Two funny shows on TV this week:<br>

<ul>

<li><i>Cougar Town</i> is on ABC this Tuesday at 8:30pm!</li>

<li><i>Community</i> is on NBC this Thursday at 8pm!</li>

<br>We promise our shows will cheer you up, OK? Yay! For those who aren't working 17 hour days or something, here's the rest of the story:

<br>Fans of NBC's <i>Community</i> and ABC's <i>Cougartown</i> formed a Super Group (yes, like the Traveling Wilburys) called <b>Communitown</b>. Both of our shows are critically-acclaimed, side-splittingly funny half hour TV sitcoms. Both of our shows need more viewers.

<br><br>Our question, fan to fan: it's important that quality shows stay on the air, right? Aren't you tired of the same old thing? <i>Community</i>, a show about a lovable gang of misfits at a community college, actually breaks new ground with every show. <i>Cougar Town</i> is NOT about Cougars; it's about some good-looking people having fun and hanging out in Florida (just like ALL our friends from New Jersey during the winter)! Come join our fan nationwide viewing party. We'd like to celebrate good TV with you this week!

<br><br><b>VIDEOS</b><br><br>

Hold onto your hats, folks. Here's the NBC <i>Community</i> Season 3 trailer:  <a href="http://www.nbc.com/community/video/community-returns/1389498">THAT'S a proper trailer! From NBC; wow!</a>

<br><br>And here's the ABC <i>Cougar Town</i> Season 3 Highlight reel:  <a href="http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/whats-alan-watching/posts/cougar-town-season-3-trailer-gives-away-the-story-to-save-the-show">Link from the fabulous TV critic, Alan Sepinwall</a>

<br><br><i>Cougar Town</i> fans are as passionate as <i>Community</i> fans. For those who already love the show: they're raising money to buy wine corks to send to ABC, buying Subway sandwiches with the <i>Community</i> fans on Mondays, and planning a group action at the end of March. Follow them at <a href="http://savecougartown.blogspot.com">Savecougartown.blogspot.com</a>. If you'd like to get involved, the easiest #Communitown organizers to find are Cougar Town Rally and Evil Troy and Abed on Facebook and Twitter. Thank you and enjoy the funny!

<br><br>Love,<br>

Communitown Fans (#CougarTown and the #Greendale7)
