How to lose the respect of the viewers still left for you or sorry network remains sorry after all
So that Friday lots of SPN as well as SV fans prepared to watch the new episodes of their fav shows and speaking of prepared I do not only mean that they were looking forward for hiatus to be over for so long but actually found some spare time (which many people don’t have like a lot) to watch their favorite shows and not something else but just as a reward for all the support the CW bosses like to bubble about when they actually need fans’ support, the viewers of the very shows were shown ultimate disrespect as well as the shows and in their scheduled time-slot for the new episodes the repeat of other shows - The Vampire Diaries and Nikita were inserted in spite of the fact that their new episodes were shown at their scheduled time at Thursday and American Idol didn’t pop up just suddenly to drag the possible viewers of the said shows and the ratings of the shows at Thursday were just their usual, so what was the matter then?
And the thing is that sly CW wanted to trap some SV and SPN viewers to watch TVD and Nikita (as they still stayed at home for Friday evening and CW made sure they would giving a huge promotion of the new episodes and “how they are meant to be fan-favorites”) because it seems (and the last voting contest to define the most popular show from CW itself just confirmed it - that these shows popularity tends to decrease - for example SPN was over TVD for something like 10 percentage and it was some ridiculous score for Nikita).
So thus I understand those fans who got furious at CW and showed their disapproval in creative but a bit tough way

Because of course it is not the end of the world and there are lots of more important things to be concerned about and everybody could be expected to show understanding if the delay was due some objective (force majeure) or some just reasons but in this case it wasn’t because they postponed SPN just to do better TVD and Nikita - thus showing that they concern about that shows better and respect their fans also better.
I do not watch TVD let alone Nikita and I do not want they solve the problems of that shows at the expense of SPN, I also wouldn’t like if somebody in that case CW tried to take charge of my free time.
If I do not watch something that means that I do not interested and if I decide to give something a chance it will be only my own decision!
So honestly I hope that they will get quite the opposite they expected to - and the audience of that shows will grow even lesser, may be for once they will learn to use their brains and respect people.
