FOREVER KNIGHT THE TRILOGY: PART THREE

Stylish Cult Favorite Vampire TV Series
Starring Geraint Wyn Davies, Catherine Disher, Nigel Bennett and
Ben Bass Is Back with the Final 22 Episodes on DVD October 3

Culver City, CA (July 17, 2006) – Creator James Parriott (TV’s “Grey’s Anatomy”) unleashes the undead for the last time when Forever Knight The Trilogy: Part Three, debuts on DVD October 3 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. The TV series stars Geraint Wyn Davies (TV’s “24”) as Nick Knight, a stylish and sexy 13th-century vampire working as a police detective in modern-day Toronto in order to atone for the sins of his past. Also starring is Catherine Disher (TV’s “Murder in the Hamptons”) as Natalie, the forensic pathologist who keeps Nick’s secret while battling his nemesis Lacroix (Nigel Bennett from The Skulls) to gain back Nick’s immortal soul. Fans can now complete their collection with this five-disc boxed set featuring all 22 episodes from the series’ electrifying final season. The DVD will be priced at $59.95 SLP.

In 2004, Forever Knight was included on TV Guide’s list of the Top 25 Cult TV Shows of All Time. The series debuted on CBS August 1, 1992, as part of an innovative new programming schedule dubbed “Crimetime after Primetime.” Despite the fervor of its fans, the series was temporarily cancelled after its first season when the network acquired Late Night with David Letterman. Following an aggressive letter-writing campaign, the series returned in syndication for its second and third seasons. The series continues to have a strong following among fans, with numerous websites devoted to deconstructing its mythology and creating new stories based on the original characters. Three novels were written based on the series: A Stirring of Dust by Susan Sizemore, Intimations of Mortality by Susan Garrett, and These Our Revels by Anne Hathaway Nayne. Over the course of its three season run, the series was nominated for 14 Gemini Awards® (the Canadian equivalent of the Emmy®), including a win for Bennett as Best Supporting Actor. For this season, the show was nominated for Best Dramatic Series and Best Original Music Score.

Forever Knight The Trilogy: Part Three introduces a new supporting cast of characters. While Nick and his eternal nemesis Lacroix are still at each others’ throats, a new police captain, Joe Reese (Blu Mankuma), takes over the 96th Precinct night shift and Nick has a new partner, Tracy Vetter (Lisa Ryder from TV’s “Andromeda”), who becomes romantically involved with the new vampire in town, Javier Vachon (Ben Bass from TV’s “Queer as Folk”). Other highlights of the final season include tricky murder investigations, spiritual healers, Nick catching a bullet in the head, and a demonic dog.

FK in Top 25 Cult Shows Ever - TV Guide:

FK was featured in the May 30-June 5, 2005 issue of TV Guide. Below is a transcript of the article and and the pic included with it:

#23 Life as a vampire sucked for Nick Knight (Geraint Wyn Davies). So what better path to self-esteem than becoming a big-city homicide detective? Cult-ability: Sensitive nosferatu were nothing new, but fans of Forever Knight were drawn to the show's dark edge. And the cult is growing: When Geraint Wyn Davies performed King Lear with Christopher Plummer in New York City recently, the audience was packed with Knighties. "The show is better-known now than when it was on the air," says the star.

Get a 3rd Forever Knight Sountrack:

I've been in contact with a friend at GNP Crescendo - the company that released the 2 FK Soundtracks - and she's taking requests for a 3rd FK Soundtrack and what songs you would like to see on it (such as the raven music in For I Have Sinned, Near Death, the other version of Black Rose, etc). If she receives enough e-mails a 3rd soundtrack might be released!

Sci-fi Channel E-mail/Phone/Snail Mail Blitz:

As you all know, Sci-fi returned Forever Knight to their line-up April 1, 2002 and, this time, only aired the show 1 year. Sci-fi was giving people a chance to discover Forever Knight and also reawaken old fans, but they have canceled it again. The fans must take action on this. It's time to let Sci-fi know now, more than ever, we are truly grateful for their airings of Forever Knight. Request *politely* that Sci-fi air Forever Knight again and it can't hurt to also mention your interest in a return movie with original cast as well.

The Return of Forever Knight Petition - Now Closed:

We have tried our best these past 11 years to make FK movies happen. Unfortunately, we were unable to accomplish that. While the fans have been successful in getting other Forever Knight related things, such as CD's and DVD sets, we sadly failed in our efforts with movies, not because we didn't try, but because for whatever reasons, TPTB refused to make it happen.
I praise the fans for their continued support in this effort. You have all been wonderful. If in time we find out that anything is still possible, we will of course re-start the petitions, but until then, thanks again for a valiant effort. KtK is still continuing, just not for movies at this time.

Forever Knight Radio Show (from Sony/Sci-fi):

I received this news from Sony (Sept. 19th): I have some very cool news for some very loyal fans of the hit show Forever Knight. In honor of this long awaited release and as a way to say thank you to all of the supportive fans Forever Knight's star, Geraint Wyn Davies (Detective Nick Knight/Nicholas de Brabant) & the show's creator, James D. Parriot will answer your audiences questions about their groundbreaking show.

Fans asked their questions and now you can listen to the radio show online.

Forever Knight: The Radio Show is now online! Click here to tune in.

CD Soundtrack Box Set of Forever Knight:

GNP/Crescendo Records released a Box Set of both Forever Knight soundtracks for 2002! To order visit their site below:

http://gnpcrescendo.com/index01.html

Quoting from their site:

"Now back on the Sci-Fi Channel, FOREVER KNIGHT continues to have a very strong fan base. Now together for the very first time are two volumes of the best music from the hit series by Fred Mollin as well as songs by Lori Yates and Molly Johnson. Special guest artists on both volumes are series stars Geraint Wyn Davies, John Kapelos and Nigel Bennett."

While this may not be actual new merchandise, it's very close. I already have both volumes, but I am ordering this nice looking box set for backups and to show my support. I hope you guys will too. Who knows... maybe this will lead to future merchandise like a 3rd soundtrack.

Fangs for the Knight! A Halloween 2000 Project:

Halloween of 2000, Kickstart The Knight did something special to encourage The Powers That Be to provide us all with not only a return of the original series of FK to the schedule, but also renew it as a series with the original cast and/or return it as one or more made-for-television movies, and for more merchandise.

We purchased vampire fangs, in an assortment of neon colors. We collected your emails and letters and attached them to the fangs and mailed the whole lot in coffin shaped boxes to TPTB.

Here are pictures of the fangs and of the packages we sent! Thanks to all who sent their messages to be included with the fangs!
