Fail Thursday

[xwacky]

Dear CW,

You guys are not cool. Really? One day before the scheduled return of Supernatural, and you pull this kind of stunt?

I've watched your network for years now because of Supernatural. I even had to switch satellite provider to find one who can give me a CW station because my local area doesn't have one. Yet you are making me feel you care not at all about fans like me.

I have made plans with my friend weeks in advance to watch the shows this Friday night together. Now guess what? My TV will not be tuned anywhere near the CW station. It's a good time for us to check out other shows that I've been meaning to take a look.

Oh, and I will not be tune in CW tonight anymore either. Nor next Thursday, the week after next, and so on.

I will still come back for Supernatural if you guys don't pull the plug on that. But given how you treated the show and its fans, I have no faith in you anymore.

Sincerely,

A Very Disheartened Fan

I just learned about it this morning. I've never seen such an unprofessional act like this before.

It's beyond me why any network station will fill up two nights in a row back to back with IDENTICAL programs! Not only they are showing TVD and Nikita on Thursday and Friday nights, apparently they showed those two shows reruns on Wednesday as well.

This kinda reminds me of this infamous radio host a while back (in Austin, Texas actually) who filled one whole day's radio with only one song, play repeatedly over and over. Guess what? The station fired his a$$ the very next day.

What a stupid guy! :( Why did he do that in the first place?

Heh, according to the other local radio hosts talking about it on their station, the guy was trying to promote his favorite song. He was so passionate about it, he filled the airwave with nothing but the song within 24 hours. At least his station was smart enough to fire him after the stunt. Unless some head rolls on CW after this stunt, I'll file the network under "Dimwitted" for the time being. The silver lining of all this is, this way, I won't feel too bad when Supernatural finishes it's run -- I would gleefully exorcise the network from my household!

You should have Dean do the exorcising! :D

Oh, I see. I also play only one song the whole day when I'm loving it but it's nuts if it's played on the radio!
