Where is my show?

Not on Thursdays anymore.
They will put Reaper after Smallville and put SPN on hiatus. But Reaper has only 2 eps left so that doesn't really say anything and it has to go up against Lost.
But not saying anything about reruns of SPN after that? Not so good.
I have no idea what that means for the show but the CW is rescheduling a lot because of the strike. I get that they want to give reaper more exposure while they can and it might mean that they are confident when it comes to SPN, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.
*sighs*
Well, they say that Supernatural will definitely return, but who knows.

Anyway, at least we get the 12 eps they have so far.
And that they saved the last 4 eps for the February sweeps instead of showing them now seems to say a lot about SPN and well Reaper (they are showing the last 2 eps after Sweeps).
*shrugs* It's all screwed up anyway.
SPN in February:
01/31 - 3.09
02/07 - 3.10
02/14 - 3.11
02/21 - 3.12

Why am I even worrying?
I can't do anything anyway.

At least Torchwood will start soon.

In other news my cold decided to flare up again last night. I am all stuffed up and puffy again. I hate it.
Really do. And I am either really hot or freaking cold. Blah...

I am gonna go and drool over Jensen on a horse.. for the nth time.

considering all factors i think that's good news. or... as good as it gets anyway.
Reaper is a good show, but I don't think it met the CWs expectations, so I feel like they are giving up on it a little, by running it against Lost. (If i remember correctly, Reaper only got a 12 episode order for season 1, instead of 22 EPs)
Supernatural will most likely be up against Re-runs or whatver shows in February and people are more likely to tune in?
That doesn't mean that my hands aren' shaking with withdrawl, but i think the CW has been incredibly smart when it comes to marekting SPN this whole year.

anyway. to summarise: WANT SHOW! NOW!!!! :(

from a business standpoint the CW did the best marketing campaign ever. They got first class promotion and didn't spend a dollar.
we fans are moving mountains to promote the show - for free - and word of mouth is the best promo you can have. and by not promoting the show at all they kind of made us even more eager to promote it ourselves.
And i am fairly certain that they won't cancel SPN this season. With no new pilots they would be crazy to cancel a cash cow show, that keeps the numbers at a certain level without any promotion at all.
Plus, i am rally curious to see how Reaper does in that time slot. (sadly we won't see it competing against GA and CSI...)

I think i'll have to start re-watching soon as well... even though i wanted to save that for the summer... *cries*
