SPN Poll: Hiatus Poll
Did you know that if you start with the Pilot this Thursday night and watch two episodes a week without skipping any, that will take you through to mid-September? If the Writer's Strike hadn't ended, did you know it would have been at least that long, 28 weeks, until any new Supernatural aired (assuming it got renewed *knocks wood just 'coz*)?

28 weeks... speaking of horror movies.

Doesn't April 24th seem a lot closer now? :-)

Still, no reruns? Grr.


Anyways, poll time! (No Spoilers for anything except that there's a hiatus, CW are not running reruns and the Writer's Strike is over, and if any of that is a spoiler for you? Dude. Hardcore.)


What will you be doing Thursdays at 9/8 central while there's no Supernatural, new or repeated, airing?
This poll is obviously skewed to North American participants, but for those elsewhere, just replace "Thursdays at 9/8 Central etc" with whatever's appropriate for you. Okey dokey? ;-)

OooOH, that spice cabinet idea is great! I never thought of it, but clearly now I need to do it :o

I think I forgot to check that one off when I voted. Though currently the salt is front and center, (along with the pepper) the rest is kind of randomly stuck in a basket in the cupboard. Although I do know exactly where the curry powder is. If anything that can stand a faceful of straight curry powder invades my place, I think I'm toast regardless. :-D

I'll watch Lost and probably clean out my DVR from saved shows. Then there are the seasons of shows I have sitting around on DVD. And of course, there is always LJ and other fannish activities.

I never got into Lost, but I watched most of the summary episode. Heh, and actually I have over 300 hours of DVD and tapes of various things that I haven't watched too, as well as two boxes of books I haven't read. But yeah, I suspect most of the time it'll be LJ and trying to corral plot-bunnies.

I'm going to attempt to see this as the universe's way of telling me to study!! *L* therefore I will be hitting the books while there is no new supernatural :)

Huzzah! Go, you responsible person you! :-)

Knitting a 67 Impala from steel wool

That last poll question is wonderful!!!

Thanks! It'd be murder on the knitting needles though, I'm thinking. :-D

I actually have a night class on Thursdays so have been watching SPN via iTunes this semester. So during this hiatus I will be...sitting in class.
caffienekitty From: [info]caffienekitty Date: February 28th, 2008 05:02 pm (UTC) (Link)
Well in that case, what will you be doing instead of downloading the new eps from iTunes :-)
apey1013 From: [info]apey1013 Date: February 28th, 2008 05:05 pm (UTC) (Link)
Working on my thesis. And, y'know, rewatching all of my favorite scenes from the season thus far. :)

All you people with your real world work/school productivity increases. :-D Awesome!
