We're looking at trying to resurrect the Lois and Clark Episode Rewatch on the Hangouts group and wanted to find out what time works best for everyone. This would happen on Friday nights.

If my schedule permitted, I would jump at this opportunity. Unfortunately, motherhood does not permit me to commit to any set time, and rarely permits me to watch a show in one sitting.

I hope that you are still doing this (or doing this again, as the case may be) in a couple of years when I will have the time.

I hope others take you up on the offer.

Joy,
Lynn

p.s., I made my comment before I voted, and then when I tried to vote (as other), it said that I had already voted, but it won't let me see the results of the poll. (I still see the "Submit Vote" button instead.) So a word of warning to anyone else who plans to vote "other": Vote first, comment later.

Apparently it took a while for the system to process my vote, because when I submitted the modified version of this post (modified to include the original "p.s."), I did indeed see the polls results. Go figure.

With the girls, I don't get time to myself until at least 9pm. Sometimes later, if they don't go to sleep right away. My vote is 10.

Any of the times work for me, as they all shake out to being on Saturday morning my time smile

None of the above do really work for me, as they are all between one and four o'clock in the night.
I have to work every other saturday, so that wouldn't work for me.

I won't be able to make any times, but I was thinking... Perhaps two or even three times should be chosen -- one that would be convenient for folks in North and South America, one convenient for people in Europe, Great Britain, Ireland, etc., and one for people in Australia. (Do we have anyone participating here from Africa or Asia -- or, for that matter, Antarctica, the space station, or anywhere else? If so, my apologies for not including you; I can't recall seeing any posts from any of these places in recent years.)

It's a good suggestion Lynn, the only problem is having hosts for all the timeslots. Val was kind enough to do the poll for me, but the episode rewatch is actually my project. If we have anyone willing to volunteer to host other timeslots, they can PM me smile

Being on the West coast of the US, 7pm ET is the closest decent time for me (as it would be around 4pm). Unfortunately, that is the time when my kids get home on the bus from school (yes, it's that time of the year again). After they're home, I don't get ME time again until usually after 9-10pm PT (which adding 3 hours for the east coast, won't work). Plus, Fridays are bad in general because it's family movie night (when we force the kids to watch classic, sometimes b&w, movies). Saturday or Sunday sometime would work better for me.

I, too, like Lynn's suggestion as having multiple times I could drop in (with my crazy schedule) works better for me, too. (And, Lynn, wouldn't it be super cool if an astronaut wanted to watch L&C with us? smile )

While I appreciate the difficulty people are going to have, the only way we will be able to do this in multiple timeslots is if people volunteer to help.

I would also like to point out that I'm a day ahead of most of you. Running it on Saturday US time (Sunday my time) means I have to give up a shift at work. Running it Sunday US time (Monday my time) is out completely for me as I have small children that have many commitments.

We are flat never going to find a time that works for everyone. That's the disadvantage of us being spread all over the world. I'm just looking for a time that suits most of us.

I think to start we should probably see how many people actually show up for whatever time slot NK picks before we try scheduling multiple viewings. Yes, it would be great if everyone could attend but as she pointed out she's only one person.

If anyone would be willing to step up and volunteer to host a rewatch viewing we could do more than one. huh

thumbsup Just my two cents on the matter.

NK,

This is your baby. You run it however you want. Just tell us when and where. smile

I absolutely agree with you, Folc!

NK, Kudos on organizing this and volunteering to host a time. clap

My two cents is to pick the time that suits you best. Those of us who can attend, will. And maybe the interest will encourage one or more to volunteer as host later. wink

Hi NK,

My apologies for suggestion more work. I had just been brainstorming and hadn't considered the ramifications.

As I mentioned, I wouldn't be able to make it regardless of the time; I had just thought my suggestion might prove helpful to someone else.

Joy,
Lynn
