Patterns!
If you'd like to see the Call for Help-a-thon promo running on TechTV, tune in to the beginning of each show. It appears that it's the first commercial run on the first commercial break. We filmed it in my real bedroom on Wednesday and it started airing this morning. Those are not my real pajamas, I do not wear a nightcap, and we do not keep a clock or a phone on the nightstand. That is my lamp, however. If someone can capture the commercial and digitize it for me, I would be forever in your debt. Well, at least for the next day or so.

Good luck on the show, I'll be watching! I haven't seen the commercial yet, I usually tune in 10 or so minutes late to CFH. I'll be looking forward to it next week.

Just saw the spot it was funny, but correct me if i'm wrong but last year you did another where you were sleeping on the TSS studio with your jammys (hope i wrote it right) not to make you feel bad or anything like that but that one was very funniest to me but overall any spot that you do will be funny, keep at it good work.

I wonder if they will air the promos on the Canadian Techtv version, we usually get the same stupid set of commericals week after week, there's like 8 of them, and they rotate, nothing like Canadian censorship read( CRTC) like your FCC. Hopefully we Canadians will see the promos, and the Super CFH after Christmas show.

I have captured your Help-A-Thon Promo as MPEG-1. The file is pretty large, 7.45 MB.
Shoot me an e-mail so I know how/where should I send it?
Because of its size It might be easiest to DCC it or send it via IM.

Chris,
I was wondering if you could clear something up for me.
I'll be out of town on the 26th, but don't want to miss a minute of the Help-a-thon.
At first, when you were talking about the Help-a-thon, you were saying it would be about 30 hours long. Now, it seems that it will be only 18 hours long.
I plan on TiVoing the whole thing, but I just wanted to confirm how long it will really last.
Is it going to be a firm 18 hours or is there a chance it could go longer?
