Remember when crazed “Jericho” fans saved the show by sending oodles of peanuts to the network powers-that-be? Newly canceled “Journeyman” fans hope to save the series by doing the same – but with rice.

Two fan campaigns (SaveJourneyman.net and SaveJourneyman.funurl.com) are asking fans to save the show by sending Rice-a-Roni to NBC. SaveJourneyMan.net says that “All indications are that NBC doesn’t want to cancel this show. They love it. They just can’t justify keeping it on the schedule. Let’s see if we can give them that justification.”

To which I think – yeah, right… Rice-a-Roni is going to save a show. Then again, look how well the peanut campaign worked in saving “Jericho.” It could happen.

The uncertainty about whether “Journeyman” would go the distance is a mystery no more – “Journeyman” has been canceled. NBC’s deadline for giving the drama a full-season pickup was yesterday, but the network opted not to give “Journeyman” the green light. Despite “Journeyman” not being picked up, fans can see the remaining two episodes.
