Welcome!

Welcome to ReWatchers, the companion blog to the Google+ community of the same name.

At the moment, there's not much to be seen either here or in the community - but we hope that will change soon.

To the right, you will see some important links - the community FAQ, the current channel listings, and so on. At the moment, they're pretty sparse. Content will come with time.

Ever notice how the internet buzzes every time a new episode of that Hot Current Show comes out?  Don't you wish Your Favorite Show had that buzz, even though it's been off the air since before the Internet was A Thing?

Interestingly reruns have a magic all their own, because we catch things we didn't see the first time around. Details pop out at us that might be important later.

Through the magic of Netflix and Amazon Instant Video and Hulu, we can create our own buzz.

Here's how it works:

Channel Moderators will pick a show and set a schedule.  You are free to watch collectively via Hangout, or quietly on your own.  After the show "airs," the Channel Mod will put up a post with a recap, and that post then becomes the place to discuss that episode.  Please no spoilers for future episodes until after they, too, have "aired."  But do feel free to highlight fresh details that could theoretically become important later ...

For now, there won't be a ton of activity on this blog - maybe an occasional post to let you know the channel listings have been updated or to highlight especially good conversation.
