(For Rec.arts.tv)
"Legend" isn't saved yet, though UPN has sat up and taken
notice of the fan support.  Be sure to watch the show on
June 12th, following Voyager (unless your local station
normally shoves it to some obscure time slot) and, since
most of us don't have Nielsen boxes, write to Ms. Lucie,
and tell her you watched it and enjoyed it. (Assuming
you did.)  It's called "The Gospel According To Legend" and
guest stars Robert Englund.  Should be a good one.  Our
watching and our letters to that effect have already made a
difference.
