Maybe one of these days I'll even watch an entire episode of Supernatural.

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:
met Lucifer and stopped the apocalypse
, it's great. The
Spoiler for again, spoiler:
way different gods from different pantheons are presented, it all reminds me of American Gods by Neil Gaiman and that's one hell of a recommendation
. After that.. it only got worse and the last 2 seasons are just, well, crap.
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.

I love that episode. Remember when Sam lost his shoe?

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:


Sam Winchester: Hey Dean... what I said earlier, about mom and dad, I'm sorry...

Dean Winchester: [raises hand to stop Sam] No chick flick moments.

Sam Winchester: Alright... jerk.

Dean Winchester: Bitch.

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!
