Ravenswood Has Found A Canadian Home on M3

We finally have news of where the new series Ravenswood will be airing here in Canada: M3. Not ringing a bell? It's the re-branded Much More Music. M3 also has tons in store for us including simulcasting Vampire Diaries on Thursday nights, airing the new series Reign and a Friday night line up of Supernatural, Arrow and True Blood (Season 5). I think it's a channel that's right up our alley here at Hexed: Sisterhood of the Supernatural.



But let's get back to Ravenswood. Here are the details about the series premiere:

Ravenswood ~ Series Premiere
Tuesday October 22, 2013 at 9pm ET / 6pm PT on M3

Series Description: "A spin-off series of the top-rated drama thriller Pretty Little Liars, RAVENSWOOD is an original one-hour drama which centers on a town not far from Rosewood, Pennsylvania (the fictional town where Pretty Little Liars takes place), which has suffered under a deadly curse for generations. Five strangers suddenly find themselves connected by this fatal curse and need to dig into the town's mysterious and terrible history, before it's too late for each of them."

Sounds good to me. Will you be watching?

Paranormal Pick of the Week: Supernatural Season 9 Premiere

It's quite a busy week for season and series premieres, but I'm kicking old-school for the choice of Paranormal Pick of the Week to keep it to our roots of sibling goodness of the Winchester brothers (& co.) who return in their ninth season. That's right. Ninth season. 



Supernatural ~ Season 9 Premiere
Tuesday October 8, 2013 on CHCH and The CW
~and~
Friday October 11, 2013 on 7pm on M3

Here is a little bit about Season 9 (fair warning: it may contain spoilers!):

"Dean (Jensen Ackles) is frantic after Sam (Jared Padalecki) collapses and the doctor tells Dean his brother won’t make it. Desperate, Dean sends out an all-points bulletin via prayer to every angel in the area, asking them to help his brother. In exchange, Dean owes that angel a favour. Numerous angry angels race to find and kill Dean, but one, Ezekiel (guest star Tahmoh Penikett, Man of Steel), gets to him first. Meanwhile, Sam fights for his life and must face some familiar demons to do so. Castiel (Misha Collins) struggles to survive without powers."

• The Tomorrow People Series Premiere Wednesday October 9, 2013 at 7pm on CTV and 9pm on The CW.  I'm really looking forward to this one, and even though it's a redux of a 70's show it also sounds a lot like Alphas. But, if it's awesome - I don't care what it reminds me of!
• Once Upon a Time in Wonderland Series Premiere Thursday October 10, 2013 at 8pm ET/PT on CityTV and ABC.   I haven't watched Once Upon A Time before but I think I'm going to jump down the rabbit hole and check out this spin-off series.
• The Walking Dead Season 4 Premiere Sunday October 13, 2013 at 9pm/8pm C on AMC. I think we're all looking forward to the return of our favourite zombie series.  After a harrowing Season 3 I'm a little scared at where they could even go this year.

Paranormal Picks of the Week: Series Premieres of The Originals and Witches of East End

This week is when we start to see The CW roll out it's TV season including the new series The Originals which was picked up by CHCH (Thank you CHCH!). I would have loved to include The Vampire Diaries as a double bill night of vampire awesomeness with our pick of the week, but the Canadian airing on CTV Two doesn't happen until Sundays at 8pm.  If you happen to get The CW, you can watch them back to back. On a happier note, we will be getting Beauty and the Beast a day early, it's second season begins this Sunday Oct 6, 2013 on Showcase. 

It was too hard to choose which (or witch) show to be this weeks Paranormal Pick of the Week with this week so I decided to included both new series of The Originals and Witches of East End which we just recently found out will be airing on Lifetime Canada.  Have a blessed TV Week!

The Originals - Series Premiere
Thursday Oct 3, 2013 at 9pm on CHCH and The CW *

Here is a little bit about The Originals: "An offshoot of The Vampire Diaries, The Originals centers on the Mikaelson siblings, otherwise known as the world’s original vampires: Klaus (Joseph Morgan), Elijah (Daniel Gillies), and Rebekah (Claire Holt).

The Original Vampire family pledge to remain together, but now their bonds of family are broken and Klaus reacts to an anonymous tip that someone is plotting against the family in the place they helped build, New Orleans."

*Please note it's regular timeslot is Tuesday at 8pm on both CHCH and The CW starting next Tuesday October 8, 2013.

Witches Of East End ~ Series Premiere
Sunday October 6, 2013 at 10pm ET/7pm PT on Lifetime Canada

Series Description: Based on Melissa de la Cruz’s best-selling novel, Witches of East End follows Joanna Beauchamp (Julia Ormond) and her two adult daughters Freya (Jenna Dewan-Tatum) and Ingrid (Rachel Boston) whom, unbeknownst to them, are their family’s next generation of witches. Leading ordinary modern day lives in Long Island’s secluded seaside town of East Haven, when Freya becomes engaged to a wealthy newcomer, a series of events forces Joanna to admit to her daughters they are powerful and immortal witches.


Also Awesome

• Vampire Diaries Season 5 Premiere Sunday October 6, 2013 at 8pm on CTV Two (also airs Thursday Oct 3, 2013 at 8pm on The CW); it will be interesting to see how the show fairs in this timeslot 3 days after it's US airing and also how things go now that a portion of the cast will be on the spin off series The Originals.  I'm looking forward to some old school Vampire Diaries craziness myself.
• Beauty and the Beast Season 2 Premiere Sunday October 6, 2013 at 8pm on Showcase (also airs Monday Oct 7, 2013 at 9pm on The CW).  This was definitely one of the happy surprizes of 2012 and I always looked forward to the show.  If you haven't watched it yet you can see the whole thing online over at Showcase.ca (or see my spoiler-free episode list here).
• Arrow Season 1 Recap Wednesday October 2, 2013 at 8pm on CTV and The CW; although season 2 of Arrow doesn't start back up until next week we can all take a refresher course with this Season 1 recap episode.

Ep 134 Paranormal TV Scorecard 2012-13

Podcast Powered By Podbean

• Hey Everyone! It's been a while but Suzie and Shannon are back and we are looking back at the new shows that debuted during the 2012/13 season that were either paranormal, or thought to be at one point possibly paranormal (some are hard to tell before they start!). We share of if the shows that have been renewed or cancelled and weight in on if we are happy (or not) with that decision. We also dive into not only fall start, but also winter start shows and share our thoughts on a few shows that have even started recently including a lenghty discussion on Defiance and being quite impressed with the oddness of Hemlock Grove. And our photo this week Suzie took with her awesome camera of the Full Flower May Moon! Isn't it beautiful?

• Many of the cancelled shows will have their remaining episodes air starting in June, including Cult, 666 Park Avenue and Zero Hour. You can see a full schedule here, and they will also be in our June New and Returning post up later this week. We hope to be back soon to check in on how our regs finished out their seasons, things have been rather challenging for us so keeping up with TV hasn't always been possible. 

• Thank you to everyone for your patience in our time off between shows, we do update here at the site and our Facebook page with news so you can always connect with us online.

Supernatural, Vampire Diaries and Arrow Picked Up by The CW: New Seasons to Begin Fall 2013

It feels super early to hear renewal news, but I'm more than happy to share that The CW has picked up Supernatural, Vampire Diaries and Arrow for additional seasons to Begin Fall 2013.

That's right folks, we'll be seeing Supernatural Season 9, Vampire Diaries Season 5 and Arrow Season 2 come Fall 2013. I'm not surprized about Vampire Diaries or Arrow, but I had concerns about Supernatural given how long the season has gone on but The CW indicate that since it's been paired with Arrow on Wednesday Nights, the Supernatural viewership has increased. Awesome news! Here's the whole skinny from over at The CW Blog:

"The CW Network has given early pickups to three of its hit series for next season, including freshman hit ARROW, its top-rated drama THE VAMPIRE DIARIES and fan favorite SUPERNATURAL, it was announced today by Mark Pedowitz, President, The CW. All three shows will return in Fall 2013.

“We said last year that one of our goals was to establish building blocks to grow on, and now with our new hit ARROW and fan favorite SUPERNATURAL on Wednesday night, and the continued success of THE VAMPIRE DIARIES on Thursday, we’ve been able to do that,” said Pedowitz. “Not only do ARROW, SUPERNATURAL, and THE VAMPIRE DIARIES perform well on-air, they’re also extremely successful for us both digitally and socially. I’m thrilled to have all three shows returning to our schedule next season.”

One of the true breakout hits of the season, ARROW posted The CW’s best series premiere since 2009 and currently stands as the network’s most watched show (4.3mil). Heading into its fifth season next fall, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES remains The CW’s highest rated series in target demographics, including adults 18-34 and women 18-34. THE VAMPIRE DIARIES also continues to be one of the network’s top performing shows digitally and socially; in fact, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES recently topped Trendrr’s list as network TV’s #1 social program for the week of January 21–27

The Winchester brothers of SUPERNATURAL will continue to fight the forces of evil for a ninth season. Since being paired with ARROW on Wednesday this year, SUPERNATURAL has seen a dramatic uptick in its ratings from last season, rising 15% among total viewers, 10% in adults 18-34 and 18% in adults 18-49"

My only question now, is how will Beauty and the Beast fair? It's in a paired on Thursdays with The Vampire Diaries and it did win the People's Choice Award for Favourite New TV Drama, so I'm holding out for more good news.

• It's almost holiday time but before we sign off for the year we still have new episodes of Haven and Vampire Diaries to explore. As it's a lighter week, Shannon and Suzie decide to also look back at the season-so-far for Arrow and Beauty and the Beast.

Paranormal Picks of the Week: Premiere Madness ~ Vampire Diaries, Beauty and the Beast, Arrow and Walking Dead

Vampires, Zombies, Superheros and Creatures galore!! It's a busy week of show premieres with Beauty and the Beast & Arrow debuting, as well as the return of The Vampire Diaries and The Walking Dead. With so many amazing shows returning and new hopefuls starting, we can't help but includes so many of them as the Paranormal Pick(s) of the Week. 

With so many shows on now I was happy to see a healthy amount of repeats, especially for Vampire Diaries & Arrow which have repeat airings early on Friday nights on MuchMusic.  That's smart programming.  We also have some Falling Skies making it's Canadian debut and True Blood Season 4 beginning on Space.  Plus, scary movies The following corresponds to Canadian air dates, but please remember to always check your local listings.



The Vampire Diaries - Season 4 Premiere 
Thursday October 11, 2012 at 8pm on CTV
Repeat airing Fridays at 8pm on MuchMusic

The Vampire Diaries holds the honour of being a show that we've talked about since our very first podcast when Vampire Diaries was still in its first season. Although we can harp on it being jammed packed with so much content it's hard to catch everything, and it's certainly gotten harsher over the years, but we still catch it every week (just tone down the torture, would ya?). The series is a spin off from the books by L.J. Smith and follows a human girl who has the same appearance of who stole the hearts of a duo of vampire brothers. Lots of supernatural content of many ilks: high school drama, historical flashbacks, lots of romances and bucket loads of social events the show has won over a very dedicated fan base. See podcasts & posts discussing Vampire Diaries here.



 The Walking Dead - Season 3 Premiere 
Sunday October 14, 2012 at 9pm on AMC

If you need to catch up or want to dive into The Walking Dead for the first time, AMC is re-airing the entire series up until the Season 3 premiere. See Season 1 on Saturday October 13, 2012 starting from 10am; Season 2 re-airs as of Saturday October 13, 2012 at 4:53pm as well as Sunday October 14, 2012 6:51am.

We only check in on this one occasionally and we’ve both had strong feelings in both directions on this on, although we both came to enjoy it more in Season 2.  Who knows, maybe it will get added to this years talking roster! See all podcasts and posts where we’ve discussed The Walking Dead here. 




Arrow - Series Premiere

Arrow is a new CW series is a "modern retelling of the story of DC Comics character Green Arrow." starring Stephen Amell (Heartland, Private Practice), Colin Donnell, Katie Cassidy (S3 Ruby on Supernatural), David Ramsey, Willa Holland, with Susanna Thompson and Paul Blackthorne (The Gates, The Dresdin Files, The River).  I know this is one of my most anticipated new series of the fall 2012 season, and Suzie & I will be sure to chat about it on the podcast.  See all podcasts and posts where we've discussed Arrow so far here.




Beauty and the Beast - Series Premiere 
Thursday October 11, 2012 at 9pm on Showcase
Repeats Friday at 6pm on Showcase

Another CW series, and it won out over the 2 Beauty and the Beast series between The CW and ABC.  This one is "loosely based on the 1980s CBS series starring Linda Hamilton, Beauty And The Beast is a modern-day romantic love story with a procedural twist."  and stars Kristin Kreuk (Smallville) and Jay Ryan (Terra Nova).  I'm a little more skeptical of this one, and keep trying not to hold the fact that it's taking the timeslot of Secret Circle, but a strong female protagonist and the nouveau gothic vibe to it, I definitely want to check it out.  I'm sure we will chat about it on Hexed, and you cans see all podcasts and posts where we've discussed Beauty and the Beast so far here.

Also Awesome Picks:

• Falling Skies - Season 1 Begins on Space Monday October 8, 2012 at 9PM.  If we weren't over a year behind on Falling Skies, this would TOTALLY be my #1 pick this week.  I'm super exciting that it will finally begin to air here in Canada.
  
• True Blood - Season 4 Begins on Space Sunday October 14, 2012 at 10pm ET; although it first aired on HBO Canada last summer, if you haven't seen Season 4 now you can catch up on Space (I might do this myself as I'm very behind on my True Blood viewing!).
