About SOS.com

When on April 26th 2010, Ausiello reported that “Legend of the Seeker” would be cancelled due to the Tribune Company/WGN America not renewing distribution for season 3, fans decided to take action in an effort to encourage ABC Studios and other potential networks to pick up the series for a third season. And the fan campaign got a boost early on thank to the support of Terry Goodkind, the beloved author of “The Sword of Truth” book series which ‘Legend of the Seeker’ is based on. Mr. Goodkind provided a public statement of support and signed DVDs for part of the project fundraiser.

Legend of the Seeker fans were inspired by the previous successes of ‘Chuck,’ ‘Jericho,’ ‘Firefly,’ ‘Star Trek,’ and ‘Farscape’ – all shows that had been saved by their loyal followers. Mr. Goodkind’s support doubled that inspiration!
