Recently in the Vampire Diaries topic I've posted a few links to articles about certain groups of fans launching Internet campaigns to try to persuade the show to do things that they want to see happen. That got me to thinking - if there had been an Internet when DS was originally on, I wonder what if anything fans may have tried to persuade the show to do by starting Internet campaigns?
One thing I would have liked to have seen happen would have been the return of Alexandra Moltke as a character with some sort of a dark side. But as we know, DC absolutely refused to do that when AM said that would have been a way she would have considered returning to the show (her interview about that topic on Disc #2 of DVD Collection #11(Disc #66 of the Complete Series Collection) is actually quite interesting). DC's thinking was that the audience would have never accepted AM that way because virtuous Vicki was a character that was too ingrained in their minds. But if fans actually organized a campaign to support AM's idea, thus showing that they could accept the notion of AM playing a dark character (as an example, AM said she would have absolutely loved to have played a vampire), I wonder if it would have made any difference?
