The CW Upfront: A Proud Day For a Supernatural Fan
Thursday, 17 May
This is a very proud day to be a "Supernatural" fan. After being persona non grata for years in the Dawn Ostroff era, "Supernatural", now going into season 8, is finally getting it's due. Here's some fine pictures and Jared and Jensen on the infamous CW green carpet at the CW upfront presentation this morning. They haven't been since the very first upfront just after season one, heading into season two I gotta warn you, Jensen's suit alone might put some of you in heart failure.
Now that I've thrilled you all with these AMAZING photos, I'm going to indulge myself in a little commentary about today's announcement that "Supernatural" will be moved to Wednesdays at 9 pm, being paired with The CW's highest profile new show, "Arrow." This is a long time coming. "Supernatural" fans have been fiercely loyal and dedicated for years, fighting for respect as the show was often neglected by it's network. It's the fans, not The CW, that won "Supernatural" three People's Choice Awards so far and a TV Guide Magazine cover. It's the fans that made "Supernatural" ratings wise the #2 show on the network, and that even happening in the so called death slot of Friday at 9 pm.
With a new boss at the helm, Mark Pedowitz, planning his very first season on his own (he was handed the network by Dawn Ostroff this time last year), "Supernatural" gets presented front and center, the pride of the network for once and not the forgotten redheaded stepchild. Pedowitz has said that season 8 will not be "Supernatural's" last, something that is not true for the once flagship of The CW, "Gossip Girl."
Think about it. How many shows in the history of TV have in its 6th season been moved from its long time spot to banishment on Friday nights, managed to pull in consistently high ratings for the network and made the show actually competitive on that night, then get moved again to a high profile spot on a better night in it's 8th season? I'm not sure, but we could be looking at history here. I've never been prouder to be a "Supernatural" fan.
Seeing Jared and Jensen at the upfronts today is a victory for the fandom. This very loyal, avidly supportive, and today feeling vindicated fandom (not to mention a little teary). Congratulations "Supernatural" fans. Our show has finally made it!
