How to Get Away with Coliver

Pitches,

Yesterday we got disappointing news that Pitch has been canceled…on Fox. We let it rest for almost a day, but our family mourning period is OVER. It’s time to nut up. We are not ready to concede or admit defeat. If Ginny taught us anything it was to FIGHT. So let’s FIGHT. 

What else ya got?

Therefore, we are going to be targeting 3 major platforms: Hulu, Netflix, and MLB Network asking them to #PickUpPitch. #PickUpPitch is the hashtag that was coined by the wonderful & brilliant @magicinhermadness and it quickly gained traction! We will be sending tweets, emails, and snail mail as soon as humanly possible.

(TBH, we’re really only 100% sure about Hulu Craig & Netflix Ted’s email address, Andy’s is an educated guesses based on MLB format so please let us know if it bounces back)

When Fox canceled Pitch they insulted a lot of people. In effect they told us that all of the things that we loved and adored about the show didn’t matter. The diversity, the barrier-breaking, the way that mental health was carefully addressed, the importance of putting a WoC as the lead…none of that matters. And we should be angry about that. We should be LIVID that Fox thinks women breaking glass ceilings has no place to grow on their network. We should give them hell for it. We do this by helping Pitch succeed on a different platform. We poured our hearts out to them and our rally cry fell on deaf ears. This is when we need to show the world how important Pitch is and how wrong Fox was for not seeing that. 

Join us in this new fight to get another network or platform to pick up Pitch. It is too important. We must make this right. For us, for the cast and crew and writers, and most importantly for every girl who will ever look at Ginny Baker and know she can do anything because she sees herself reflected. 

Let’s get to work. We ain’t done nothing yet.
