WikiMoonWeb:Save Our Sailors
Save Our Sailors (commonly referred to as SOS) was an online campaign centered around the English dub of the anime. The members of the campaign were devoted to keeping the show on the air, with the ultimate intention of getting the entire series aired on television in North America. The campaign has also garnered criticism by some fans.
Controversies Associated with SOS
Pop-Tarts
SOS organized a "procott," in which Sailor Moon fans would buy a particular sponsor's product on a pre-arranged day. According to SOS, this surge in sales would send a message to the sponsor and encourage the completion of dubbing the Sailor Moon R season, which had been left unfinished by DiC at the time. The product chosen, through a poll administered by SOS, was Kellogg's unfrosted strawberry Pop-Tarts. On Saturday, December 14, 1996, fans were asked to go out and buy as many Pop-Tarts as they could, and according to online accounts, many of them did.[citation needed]
It should be noted that before the procott took place Irwin had already arranged to sponsor the rest of the season.
