All this talk about letter-writing campaigns and picket marches... and whathas t accomplished? Two things: Jack, and Squat.
Now, these kinds of protest are all well and good in their own way, but I think we, as the loyal viewing audience, should give some serious thought to the idea of terrorist action.
Now, hear me out.
There are, currently, nearly 2000 PEELers. Of these, I'd say 200 post regularly. Now, if the movie Die Hard has taught us anything, it's that it only takes 12 people to seize control of a standard high-rise office building; surely, with 200 people at our disposal, we could easily take control of FOX headquarters.
Of course, we would need weapons. Luckily, here in America, guns are cheap, plentiful, and easy to aquire, unlike truly dangerous substances like beer. Ditto for ammunition.
With proper planning and preparation, we could commandeer FOX headquarters and capture the board of directors within a matter of hours. We will then hold them hostage until our demands are met, except for Rupert Murdoch and the guy who greenlit Joe Millionaire. They will be shot on sight.
Now, some of you might think this sounds extreme, but I believe that, if done right, it can be pulled off with a minimum of bloodshed.
Thoughts?

maybe, better organize attack through internet... let's say a Doom Day for all FOX network? Because some PEElers technically could not come to US.

Readies (and programs them to target fox HQ) a few ICBM's be found and hovers his finger over the red button, just in case.

While we're at it we might as well demand 100 billion dollars, we even got german members like Marc who can make our terrorist speechs for us and just to be on the safe side I think we should kill Bruce Willis first.

I'm in. Just let me know when you want me, and provide me witha false passport, plane tickets, and three jamaican hookers. I'll take the first six floors, and when they're secure you go up above me, whilst I take the lift above you and take the eighth. Then we proceed in that fashion to the top. Come to hink of it, I'll also need a gun, but they flow like water in the US so that part should be easy

How about hacking into the FOX scheduling file, and scheduling non-stop Futurama for the forseeable future (starting with the unaired episodes, of course)  . Then we set the "read-only" restriction and change all their computers to run a Japanese version of UNIX! Thus, the high-level FOX brains would be foiled! MWAHAHAHAHAAH! Or, we could organise a daring midnight raid to get the episodes on elephant back (and no, it's not the stupidest idea I ever heard  ).

Thank God you were only talking about terrorist action Kryters. For a minute there, I thought you were going to offer a traditional Irish menu for us.
As for attacking FOX, sounds about right. We wouldn't actually have to kill Bruce Willis first, just send Demi (Dummy?) Moore over for a reconciliation "get-together" which should keep them both out of our hair for the duration of our "work"
First course of action should be to "liberate" the Futurama episodes they continue to hold.
After that, we force them to agree to air (at a reasonable time) all remaining episodes of the series (we give them copies of the originals for this purpose).
Then we force the bastards to order about a ga-jillion new episodes of Futurama, keeping Matt and the rest busy for years to come.
Next, we ensure that FOX either airs all these new episodes, or else they go to the next highest bidder for immediate release, Fox seeing no profit from this exchange.
Finally, we rid the planet of Rupert and his team of idiots network programmers. They've done no good, and there is no hope that they ever will.
After that, it's out for a round of sodas and we all stay up to read about our good works in the morning papers.
Or we all die trying... (Hmm, maybe we should think about this, just a little bit more)

you think hitting the Fox Hq is going to hurt them?! Come on hit 'im where it hurts! We all know Rupert and all his ape brained allies only care about money. Screw bombing and such, I say we need a virus that will transfer the funds in their accounts /sell their stocks bonds, and spread it through out the world helping all the needy... ... ... Or slowly leaking it into our own accounts. Actualy yeah thats sounds better, cuase then We could by Fox and set it up as the worlds first 'Channel deticated soley to Futurama'!!

Some pranks. A variation on the classic dog turd in a burning paper bag: Take small a board with a nail on which you stick the dog turd. Put this in the bag. Light. If they stamp on the bag, they 'll get the nail in their foot and the wound will get infected.
Spread small amounts of coke in the toilets of FOX buildings, and then anonimously inform the police.
Go to a butcher's shop, tell him you need bones for your dog or for your biology class or something. Put those in the airconditioning system. After a couple of days it 'll start to stink up the place.

Heheheh.  . We'll need a pretext to distract the authorities from our real goal, as well. Something so ludicrous and absurb only the FBi would believe it  . How about demanding King of the Hill is renewed for another 20 years?  .
