From Dean Georgaris on Twitter, February 23, 2024, 9:44am:

"Wow.  I want to start by saying the overwhelming response to the #QuantumLeap season two finale has touched, moved, and energized all of our amazing crew, cast, directors and writers.  

I’ve received so many messages asking about who to write or where to send letters that I wanted to answer as best I can. I believe this answer holds true for every film, tv series, play of any work of art you like.

While writing letters, starting petitions and things like that are so meaningful to those of us who work on these projects the reality of the social media world may surprise you. Studios, networks, theaters, are actually less moved by those campaigns now than they used to be. I’m not saying not to do these, all awareness helps, but when all is said and done these companies are in business, with thousands of employees to pay, future projects to finance, and the only thing that matters is viewers. Eyeballs. Box-office.

So the way to support your films or shows is to watch them. Watch them live. Or after on streaming. And then TELL YOUR friends and family to TRY WATCHING to see if they might like it. That’s the way. If every viewer who watched a show in the first week could get just TWO people over the course of the next MONTH to TRY it - you would dramatically improve the chances it continues.    (continued-->)




(Continued from left)

Now, of course, right now I’m talking to the #QuantumLeap fans. But honestly this is meant for ALL fans. I’ve cheered for the people who fought for #magnumPI, #Manifest, #Timeless and all the other shows.  

This post is meant for everyone. Thanks to all of you, for example, Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie will be able to make more interesting films that otherwise might have been called ‘too risky’. Thanks to you, studios will now once again consider complex character dramas like Oppenheimer

Not saying Chris Nolan necessarily needs our help.  But filmmakers without that clout now have a CHANCE at making films like that.  Why? $800 million reasons why.   So do you have power? Yes. Should you be vocal?  Absolutely. But the real power is in viewership.

You will get more of what you go see.  You will get more of what the most people watch. IT IS ACTUALLY QUITE RARE for films to maintain a solid box office for even two weeks.  TV series almost NEVER increase viewership by factors beyond the expected trends so there’s your power.  

And please know — we all hope you use it. Any time you support anything you think is great - we ALL win."
