Returns of Supernatural and Smallville Pushed Back a Week
Take note, Supernatural and Smallville fans:
The 2011 premieres of these hit CW shows have been pushed back a week. The reason? The network wants to re-air this week's return installments of The Vampire Diaries and Nikita in order to give them maximum exposure.
Both dramas went up against American Idol on Thursday and both were pre-empted in a few major markets (e.g. Chicago, Baltimore). Set your viewing plans accordingly.

The CW would never and has never re-aired an episode of Supernatural for maximum exposure. Hell they haven't done anything to help Supernatural with ratings in the 6 years that it has been on. I don't understand why CW doesn't support Supernatural like it does with the other TV shows. Supernatural has won People's Choice Awards and the cover of the TV Guide contest. If it wasn't for Supernatural I won't watch the CW at all, because I have no interest in Post-teen drama queen shows like One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl, 90210, etc...

I hate it when they do this, fans are all excited and then you crush our hopes. I agree with Arie93 about the dejavu with PP, that made me angry and did nothing for off the map which they re-aired.

I'm so pissed! I have been waiting and waiting for Smallville to return, and today I thought "Yay, only one day left!" - and now....WHAT?!?!?! Not to mention, announcing this one day beforehand is ridiculous.
As much as I love TVD, they definitely don't need to be aired again, especially if it causes this to happy.
SO lame.
