Commando Cody October 9, 2016 Share October 9, 2016 Watching "Baby" gave me hope that this series could continue with quality episodes. I think I've watched that episode three times as well. 1 Link to comment

pixelcat October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 I'm also watching various S11 episodes, mostly because they are now on Netflix and it's easy to jump around. Again with the no THEN/NOW at the beginning of each episode, just like S10 /grrrr. Netflix also changed the image for Supernatural, I preferred the other with hands reaching up from hell. Looked very horror-ish. The new pic just looks like a modeling ad. So far I've watched Baby, Safe House and Red Meat, will probably watch Plush, The Vessel, Don't You Forget About Me, All In The Family, and Form and Void. Link to comment
DittyDotDot October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 I'm still working through the re-watch I started this summer. S9 is kicking my ass! I can't seem to finish it. Down to two episodes now, at least. I guess I better purchase the S10 DVDs soon, though. 26 minutes ago, pixelcat said: Again with the no THEN/NOW at the beginning of each episode, just like S10 /grrrr. Oh, I'm okay with that. I kinda think of them as a waste of time anyway. But, that's weird...I wonder why they did that? Link to comment

I'd like to know why as well... Yeah, sometimes the music is good, but I find what they choose as video and the way they cut it together rather awkward anymore. I think they had some really good previouslies in the early seasons--especially S2--but in recent seasons I prefer to skip them all if I can. Same with Wayward Son... But, I do agree it's weird they suddenly stopped putting them on the streaming versions. Perhaps it was cheaper that way? They wouldn't need to pay extra for the streaming rights to the music?

That was my thought as well, but most of the time they just use show music, so... Just weird to me. It does speed up the re-watching though. 1 Link to comment
catrox14 October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 Ugh. I didn't realize they eliminated the THEN from the season finale again. For the heck of it I checked the CW app and it still has the The ROAD SO FAR with the music. The music is so important to this show that it seems unconscionable to not have it as intended on Netflix. Sigh. I realize it's a licensing thing & they want us to buy the DVDs but it's really frustrating. I wonder if the unedited versions are on iTunes. 1 Link to comment
GirlyGeek October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 Ugh that's annoying. Season 7 still has the Then/Now and the Wayward Sons for finale. I usually skip the Then/Now stuff, but I LIVE FOR the Wayward Sons season enders. That's going to annoy me Link to comment

It's a THING. A big thing. Heck they could even use their version from Fan Fiction if they don't want to pay the licensing fee. 1 Link to comment

sarthaz October 27, 2016 Share October 27, 2016 I'm on a TNT re-watch, and tomorrow is the last 4 of Season 5. It's just so freakin' good that I want to hurry up and watch it on Netflix, but then what would I do tomorrow? Guess I could watch it again. Hmm ... 2 Link to comment
sarthaz November 23, 2016 Share November 23, 2016 And sometimes there's a Thanksgiving miracle! Preparing to slog through Season 9, expecting lots of Zeke sightings and stilted dialogue and Kevin brooding, when what to my wondering eyes should appear? A Very Supernatural Christmas! Well done, TNT. Well done. 2 Link to comment
sarthaz December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 Anyone understand WTF TNT is doing? They ran all the way to We Happy Few, and instead of Alpha & Omega, they restarted Season 11! And according to advanced guide data they'll be skipping Baby (wtf?) and run Season 11 again all the way to We Happy Few and again skip Alpha & Omega. How does this make any sense? Link to comment
DittyDotDot December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 @sarthaz, I really don't know. I don't have TNT, but it seems I recall there being some discussion about this in the ratings thread recently. TNT routinely messes up the schedule, but it was posited that they seem to skip the most popular episodes when showing the season the first time. Maybe it has something to do with licensing and those episodes being more expensive for whatever reason? Link to comment
sarthaz December 19, 2016 Share December 19, 2016 Interesting. Thanks for the info! Sorry if I posted in the wrong thread. Link to comment

They just skipped "Just My Imagination" as well. And the Pilot is back on 22 Dec. I wonder if the studio charges a premium rate for some episodes. Baby was well praised Just My imagination got nominated for a Hugo. And finales are always big. Seems stupid to me (cut your nose off to spite your face kinda deal). 1 Link to comment

RulerofallIsurvey December 20, 2016 Share December 20, 2016 Iirc, Alpha and Omega was still available on the CW site at the beginning of this season (12.) (I don't know if it still is. I don't think so.) So maybe it hasn't been syndicated out yet? But then again, I have no idea how these things work. :) Link to comment
DittyDotDot December 20, 2016 Share December 20, 2016 (edited) I would doubt Alpha and Omega is still available on CW site. They usually have only the five most-recent episodes available there. Edited December 20, 2016 by DittyDotDot Link to comment
FlickChick December 20, 2016 Share December 20, 2016 I believe that the next time around - after ten seasons have aired - we'll get the full showing in order. But who knows? What's sort of sad is that usually I look forward to the new season airing on TNT, but this time, I didn't bother to watch. :( Link to comment
ahrtee December 20, 2016 Share December 20, 2016 I'm wondering if TNT is going to stop the reruns (or at least cut back on the number of eps in a row) after the new year, and that's why they're rerunning s.11 instead of starting over with s.1 again? Because, as far as I can remember, this is the only time they've done that, even when showing a new season for the first time. And the new year is the perfect time to rearrange the schedule. Link to comment
SueB December 20, 2016 Share December 20, 2016 I actually like to see the old seasons. Not because I like them more but I find myself looking at the iTunes of the newer seasons more often than the older ones. So when the older ones show up it's like finding $5 in my pocket. TNT starts on S1 on the 22nd and the last episode in the TVGuide listing (they only go so far out) is 2.02 Everybody Loves a Clown. Seems odd to stop it there. Link to comment
catrox14 December 20, 2016 Share December 20, 2016 They did this with S10 and they borked around with Arrow as well. S10 got a full run on its 2nd airing IIRC. If they start over on Dec 22 with the pilot and continue with no breaks at 4 episodes a day for 5 days a week that's 20 episodes a week give or take that should put them at s11 again sometime in February or March. We'll see if they skip Baby again then. Link to comment
sarthaz December 21, 2016 Share December 21, 2016 It'll be a sad day when TNT stops airing these. I know I could just watch them another way, but there's something about the routine of knowing it's always there and that others are watching with me that I really like. Although, it feels like they've been airing the crapfest that is Charmed for a decade now, so maybe there's hope for more years to come. 1 Link to comment

So, they probably make a little more by showing it for four hours every weekday. They found that "Grimm" didn't work, so they put that on in the middle of the night. We'll see how "Arrow" does. 1 Link to comment

So I paid attention to the commercials today. They have a few that are repetitive (which suggests they gave some sort of deal for that treatment) but in general, these were all national ads that run in primetime as well (except the dental thing... that's a day-time kinda add). I'd say it's a moneymaker for TNT. 1 Link to comment
Morrigan2575 December 27, 2016 Share December 27, 2016 I haven't looked in awhile but there were several years where SPN made the Top 100 cable shows on a daily basis. It was nice to see SPN airing at 10/11 AM making lists along with TNT, FX, USA, etc Original Series. Link to comment
Mick Lady February 9, 2017 Share February 9, 2017 Watched "Slash Fiction" this morning, one of my favorite episodes of the whole series! I will never get tired of Dean lovin' "All Out Of Love!" When that song first came out, I was a teenager. I remember lying on the beach at the Jersey Shore with my bestfriend Lianne when that song came on the little AM radio we had, (station, 77WABC). I swear to God guys, almost everyone on the beach started singing along! It's one of my fondest memories, so that song means a lot to me. 40 years later and Liane and I still laugh about this! 5 Link to comment

That song came out the summer of the lake house. My best friend's mom had a lake house about 45 minutes away from Tulsa where we live. Well that was the summer between my 8th and 9th grade. 8th grade had sucked for both of us, her parents were getting divorced and my little sister passed away. So her mom took us to the lake house for the whole summer, we listened to Air Supply and Journey and tried to pretend everything was normal. I will never forget that summer, we survived and she is still my best friend and we are each other's kid's God Mothers. My long way of saying I love that ep too. 7 Link to comment
