Cassidy Freeman, who plays Walt's (Robert Taylor) daughter Cady also chimed in to voice why the series is so important in today's world of television.

The goal of the stampedes, which have continued steadily since A&E dropped Longmire following the season three finale, is to keep the spirit of the series alive and encourage other networks to take an interest in the program, which is currently being shopped around by producers.
If Longmire does find a new network, it will likely return with a fourth season sometime during the second half of 2015.
