Supernatural was super fun - initially. But after several seasons.. well... I was a big fan once, now I can't stand it.
Up until and including that season when they Spoiler for spoiler:
Spoiler for again, spoiler:
It has great music though! Well, most of the music there is great and I simply love the back in black version AC/DC recorded especially for them. Oh, it also has one of the funniest things I've seen on tv ever - the rabbits foot episode, clearly a comic relief after all the monster stabbing or whatnot, I literally cried tears of joy first watching it. And it has Maggie from Walking Dead as a sexy magic item thief  So there's that.

Binged through 4 episodes last night. They're definitely trying to find the right rhythm but I'm digging it. The chemistry between the brothers is great. Love the car and the music. And all of the guest actors are bringing their A games.
Loved this little exchange. Pretty much sums up the two leads. Spoiler for Minor spoiler:

This is what I love about it. The "Two-tough-guys-who-can-occasionally-have-that-soft-moment thing. Buffy had not this. The male leads in that were sort of fawning (Xander), dark and mysterious (Angel) or just plain bat**** crazy (Spike, my favourite character). And then there was Giles. But the way Sam and Dean keep up the tough exterior but occasionally allow their love for each other to show is really great writing, and Chula, I can't say after season three because that's as far as I went (I lterally thought to myself: this is too good, I don't want to get to the end so I'll stop now and let some build up ---- was about two years or more now!) but up to then there are some major surprises and twists coming, so beware of spoilers.
I like too that the writers are not trying to pair them off with a girl every other episode, so that when it does happen, it's far more special and it means more. Really reinforces the loneliness of life on the road as "hunters". And not that kind, Batty!

My biggest pet peeve with the show is that the Winchesters .. well, they don't learn. I understand that when you start your career as a monster hunter, you might get into stupid trouble or end up fist fighting that monster because you have no weapon, but after years and years .. they are still doing that. Oh no, it's a demon/vampire/djinn/changeling/werewolf/angel/leviathan/whatever, let's charge, get our as* handed to us, and now one of us is tied to a chair, the bad guy is giving his cliche speech and the other one just manages to save everybody. Just. But .. this is minor. Show me another show that mocks itself by creating vision driven fanfiction (including homosexual fanfiction) with a huge following, about the brothers that they discover by accident. Anyway, the show is great (at least the first 6 or so seasons are) and any fan of urban fantasy, rpg games and things like the gateway to hell being guarded by a many miles wide train tracks pentagram created by one Samuel Colt will enjoy it. |

Okay, so I got Supernatural confused with The Librarians.. I don't like Supernat, the main characters suck..
