Poll: How Much Would You Pay to Pre-Fund a 3rd Season of Dominion?

Syfy just announced the cancellation of Dominion and I am expecting an uproar from the shows loyal and vocal fanbase.  I am also expecting a concerted effort by them to get the show picked up by another network or one of the streaming services.  But we have not seen much success from that of late, so I’m going to suggest another course of action. I have floated the idea previously about pre-funding a television series using a crowd-funding type approach. I go into this in more detail at this link, but the basic idea is that people would buy subscriptions to an upcoming season based on a set price per episode and number of episodes per season. The network/studio/production company would establish the minimum number of subscriptions to be sold in order for them to greenlight a season, and if that threshold is achieved then the subscribers would be charged and production would move forward on new episodes.

So the first question to Dominion fans is what amount would you be willing to pay per episode to pre-fund a sixth season (based on the assumption that the season order would be eight to ten episodes)? Vote below and I will be sharing this information with Syfy, Universal Cable (the show’s production company), the streaming services, and more. I believe that this is a much more viable means of saving a show from cancellation than the typical fan-rage “Save My Show” campaign because it addresses the bottom dollar and gets the fans directly involved with financially supporting the show. This could establish a whole new paradigm for television production, or at least a viable alternative to the old model, and your votes will be crucial to establishing a baseline for what fans would be willing to pay to keep their shows going.

It is important to note that this is in no way an official initiative and the studio, network, and production company have no involvement at this point.  But strong outpouring of support from the fans could convince them to consider this option, so be sure to vote and pass along the information about this poll.
