Supernatural Season 9 -Coming to India

Supernatural Thrillathon will extend the programming to weekends. It will launch Season 9 in October, concurrent to the US telecast

English general entertainment channel AXN has revived its weekend programming with the launch of Supernatural Thrillathon, with the telecast of three seasons of Supernatural.

The channel was so far airing script-based shows from Monday to Thursday and movies on weekends. With Supernatural, it has extended the telecast days of a series to weekends. While the seventh and eighth seasons of Supernatural will air for 46 days back-to-back, every day at 9 pm and ending sometime in September, the ninth season is expected to be launched in October.

Arpit Mankar, programming head, AXN, tells afaqs! "Supernatural is a cult show and one of the top 25 cult shows in the US. This is the first time we are airing a script-based show on weekends and I can't recall if any other channel in the genre has done the same. Airing this series over the weekend is our USP. It will also help us build a following for the series that will lead to the launch of Season 9. With Supernatural Thrillathon, we are reviving the weekend slot for the category."

The channel will start promoting the ninth season of Supernatural during the telecast of Season 8. The season will be simulcast in the US.
