Supernatural makes EW's list of cult shows. The article isn't available on line yet, but the cover has the show right up there with Buffy and Firefly.
Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
To its credit, it's outlasted every genre show I can think of except Stargate SG-1 and Doctor Who, and even a couple years in the Friday Death Slot couldn't hurt its overall ratings much.
What about Smallville?
Ten seasons.
Take that, Clark Kent!
X-Files. Ahem.
I guess I assumed X-Files would be on the cult list, but I think I've lost the thread of the conversation now.
I thought X-Files only went 7 seasons?
I thought it went, like, nine? Maybe not. At the end it was all very confusing.
Matt, that's the trauma induced dissociative fugue talking.
(FTR, 9 seasons, and oh, what a painful end).
edit: Amy, you're totally right. I thought eight, but nine it is.
