Rumor Has It...

That Smallville and Supernatural have been renewed for a tenth and sixth season, respectively.

Now, it's not official, so take it with a grain of salt, but one online venue called CinemaSpy is reporting this as a done deal.

This claim is bolstered by the fact that Smallvile has been building new sets (supposedly) and Supernatural's creator, Eric Kripke, has been talking about potential storylines for Season 6. Plus Dawn O., who has a history of not really caring for either show, has gone on the record recently with positive statements on both shows.

Also in the shows' favor is Supernatural recent win at earning a People's Choice Award for Best Scifi/Fantasy Show and Smallville's continued success on the CW in the death zone of Friday night.

I'll wait for an official release. There are always unexpected factors that can cause a show to get canned, even when everything seems fine. Though, at this point, it seems more likely than not.

And meg_tdj ? They are also reporting Jason Momoa got the Conan gig ;)

ETA: CW has slammed down the reports of renewals. Told you to take it with a grain of salt ;) But I think they have a good chance of renewal anyway.

I've read the Jason/Conan thing a few places on L:J, and I kept thinking "Jason is getting Conan O'Brien's job?". Then I actually looked it up on Google. Conan the BARBARIAN! Oh! :D

I saw this too and I'm still taking it with a grain of salt. Read somewhere that they're supposed to announce it in a week or so, but not sure about that either. It does sound promising, so here's hoping. :)

Oh yay! Hope we'll get confirmation soon. :)

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's true. But I also remember what happened to Dark Angel. They told them they were renewed, then turned around and told them they were cancelled a couple of weeks later.

But I'm going to think positive!
