NOTIFICATION: Finale Day 7 Aftermath

I haven't watched anything new since Finale Day 7 (FD7), and wanted to give an update on here on what I've been up to the last few weeks. Well, not a lot as far as TV is concerned; I've been quite busy with other things. However I've been progressing the "Finale Day 7 Aftermath" process slowly but surely. This period comes between the finale day and the post-FD7 season premieres. Here's a summary of the various things I have/will be doing over the aftermath period:

• Reviews of the Finale Day 7 episodes. I've actually done this now (finally) and you can see the episodes reviewed on the blog in November (despite that I watched them in October).
• Acquiring the new seasons. I've now completed this and have in my possession the DVD copies of Smallville Season 5, Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, One Tree Hill Season 4 and Mad Men Season 2. I also bought Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1 (as I never previously owned this) and Rome Season 1.
• Mad Men Season 1 re-watch. This is in progress as I didn't originally watch this season on my own. I haven't been writing reviews of these as I know what's going to happen and it hasn't been quite the same experience anyway as watching the first time.
• Poster refresh. Some of you may know that I adorn my house with posters of some of my favourite shows. As a general rule though I don't put up posters for seasons I haven't finished yet. Since I finished a whole load of seasons on finale day 7, I'll be replacing some posters with ones from the seasons I've just watched. In particular I'm going to be using pictures from Spooks Season 2 and The New Adventures Of Superman Season 2. This should be finished in the next couple of days.
• Special Features Recon. As below I haven't started watching the special features yet, but I wanted to make sure I had a record of how long each feature was and the totals. When I start the special feature watching it will then be easier to fit them around my schedule as they are vastly different individual lengths, from less than a minute to about 45 minutes. I've completed this initial "recon" phase.
  
• Special Features. I will be starting this in the fairly near future, and probably after finishing Mad Men again. This will include Spooks Season 2 (more than 249 minutes), Futurama Season 5 (about 53 minutes), and The New Adventures Of Superman Season 2 (about 19 minutes). It will also later include Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1 (about 113 minutes) and Mad Men Season 1 (about 26 minutes). In total more than 7 and a half hours of footage there.
  
• Programme catch-up. This will be the last stage of the aftermath and will involve watching at least one episode of each of my outstanding programmes (programmes I am still in the process of watching but weren't a part of FD7). These are: Lost, Sports Night, Jericho, Rome, Dark Angel and Pushing Daisies.
