We want to organize it so we can tweet while we watch, and make our mark!
For Option 1, if you can't watch the CW, we'd ask you to find a way to view and watch along.
Also, let us know how to handle the time zone issue. Should we run the re-watch for three-hour block to cover all the U.S. timezones?
Give us any suggestions you have by Sunday night. We want to start publicizing this!

Both. It'd give the reruns ratings plus help those who don't have the channel.

I would do it... but I what if everyone doesn't go through it? For the Loyal Fanbase like me, we already have the Season 2 DVD.
Regardless, I'll do the re-watch to grasp the devil by the horns!

I would do it... but I what if everyone doesn't go through it? An excellent worry, but with all we've got on our plate, let's *not* worry about it right now. Let's just get it up and running. At the very least, we'll have a few here who'll participate. That's worth it, right?  </Blue sighs again> Don't remind me. If only we could find them and wrangle their receipts out of their hands..... Sweet. So - not many people are voting, but the ones that have are saying to do both: Tuesday nights DVDs, Sunday nights CW affiliates. So when should we start? We've got a bit of time for the Sunday one, as it doesn't start until next week. Should we start the DVDs *this* Tuesday or next Tuesday? And if it's *this* Tuesday, we gotta get the word out ASAP. |

Sorry guys, but bad news... I'm going to be out of town to participate in a wedding in Hawaii from 6/18 - 6/23. I don't think I'll be able to do a re-watch this week. How about next Tuesday? Sorry Guys!  |

The problem with the rerun rewatch is that not everyone will be watching at the same time. Like if we set a date at Tue 9pm EST, then that means it'll be 8 CST, 7 MST, and 6 PST and therefore there's a set time for everyone. However, I think this is the only easily accessible way to watch /:

We're still considering (and taking votes!) on the best way to do this, since the Twitter side is taking a bit of research on my part. If anyone here has done a Twitter chat deal in real time, let me know. Anyway:
1) I may have to switch out the @reaperdmv account since it still seems to be broken, I'll let people know.
2) TIMING:
Sunday live viewing: Yes, we'd have to account for time zones, but I and perhaps others could be online the whole time. I'm on Pacific Time, so if it starts showing 7 pm Eastern (can someone confirm this part?), then I would be on from 4 pm my time to 8 pm when it ends. International viewers could view however at any time they want, ditto DVD and DVR viewers.
Can someone on Central time confirm their showing, sometimes Central/Mtn view an hour earlier?
3)Tuesday DVD watch. Can't start this Tuesday, has to be next (June 23). Should we set it up to all view during the same hour (eg. 6 Pacific, 9 Eastern) so that we only have one time span?
4) Keep adding comments about this. Thanks!

It begins at 7pm est which is 4pm PST. I, too, can stay up until 11pm if that works. Maybe we can use tinychat.com for a Twitter chat. I still wish ABC Studios/The CW had all of the series up online, like LOTS. |

TheMBC, thanks and also for the awesome tweeting while I figure out how to get the reaperdmv account fixed, or changed. We're hot on the trail of a solution but who knows.
Can you look for me in chat here sometime if you are available? I don't really get how to do the Twitter chat, either via Twitter or a third party, and it'd be great to get some advice. We could tweet I guess, but the damn character limit makes it tough.
Basically I have no idea what I'm doing with any of this, just faking it. :-)

I make it up as I go along! I don't know how to chat through that either but I suppose if we wanted to "Tweet Chat" we'd just leave a #WatchReaper hashtag and have people leave their browser screens to search.twitter.com/search?q=%23WatchReaper to get live updates of what everyone's saying. And I will stay in the chat (: |

Sorry for the double:
I was trying to see if there was any *legal* ways out there to watch Reaper online, and I thought, don't they stream Reaper on CWTV.com even if it's a repeat?
EDIT:
Ugh, as it seems all their shows that are currently in reruns are not encoring online at the same time. Fail.
