meh.

So I missed the first five minutes due to Lee being ass about the tv controller and well, being wrapped up in Plants Vs. Zombies. (I'd recovered from my addiction once, why oh why did I go back. SO MUCH FUN IN CO-OP MODE THOUGH.)

There are a lot of negative opinions behind this cut.
( Supernatural 6.06 )

I liked that uhm, they were brothers on a case. Sure, they're not very good at being brothers anymore but the basics were S1-ish. And I liked that there was some daylight and little things like that. :p

I don't really believe Sam and his "I need help" either. You say he's like Spike, punnky_kitty said he was like Angelus. But I see more Buffy just outta heaven and keep picturing Sam talking to Tara trying to figure out how and why he came back "wrong".

alwaysenduphere October 30 2010, 02:47:41 UTC

That is one of the things about this whole season I've kinda liked, the s1-ish feel and the lack of angels and apocalypse.

Hmm. But Buffy CARED that she came back wrong, or thought she did at least. Sam says he cares and he 'needs help' but I just don't buy that. That's kinda why I think of Spike, how he was killing things because he kinda HAD to, but he doesn't really CARE about the outcome? I don't know, maybe neither is comparable just yet.

certainthings October 30 2010, 02:53:44 UTC

Hmm, yeah. There is that. Perhaps a little of one and the other.

uglyduckling_me October 31 2010, 20:34:11 UTC

If I may interject...
While Buffy cared that she came back "wrong", she also had soul and could tell something was majorly amiss with how she was feeling/reacting/non-reacting(?). Sam on the other hand, knows that something isn't the same as before, but he can't figure out WHAT. I think he's been trying to work out what's missing without letting on that anything is amiss. Unfortunately, he hasn't been doing a very good job of it.
YMMV

... THERE IS A CO-OP MODE!?!?!

*drools*

alwaysenduphere October 30 2010, 02:48:19 UTC

Haha there is on the 360. I don't know if there is on computers or phones or whatnot. Brett and I have been killin' zombies all day. :P

tahirire October 30 2010, 02:36:33 UTC

WAIT WAIT OMG WAS IT ONCE MORE WITH FEELING!?!?!!? O.O

alwaysenduphere October 30 2010, 02:49:53 UTC

I live in hell because I've been expelled ~from heaven~. Was it you that had the idea that Sam was pretty much HBIC downstairs and he LIKED it, so coming back up topside is actually a CHORE for him and he hates it? I think that might have been Smidgy, actually, now that I think about it.

tahirire October 30 2010, 02:55:27 UTC

I had this http://tahirire.livejournal.com/247330.html ...

Ahhhh, yeah, so it was both of you. Hers was this.

I'm not so sure that I liked it, but I didn't hate it. It had its moments, like Bobby possibly dating a man or a lesbian(I hope it was a guy, who was secretly Rufus in drag during a hunt).

I'm interested in seeing where they go with this. I mean, there are tons of ways they can handle it, they probably won't choose the best road, but it'll be interesting.

Also, that boobjob chick had nice boobs. Just sayin'.

alwaysenduphere October 30 2010, 02:52:17 UTC

HAHAAHAHA OMG I DIDN'T EVEN THINK OF THAT. I was thinking more like a succubus or a midget or something. OMG, A MAAAAAAAN!

There's part of my problem I think. There are tons of really creative ways they could do this. I actually really love the concept of Sam leaving his soul behind in hell. But I don't think they'll do a good job with it. I've lost faith in the writing.

GODDAMN SHE DID. I was like, DEAN GIVE HER A COMPLIMENT when he just walked off, so glad he came back and did.

xxamlaxx October 31 2010, 21:09:51 UTC

"She" was totally a man and I am convinced that "she" was Rufus in drag. That is how they met. Rufus was after a succubus that only went after females in relationships and so he seduced poor Bobby and led him on long enough to gank it. *nods* BRB writing porny Rufy fanfic.

I don't think Dean is capable of not giving good boobs one last look. It would be OOC if he'd just let. Pretty as Lisa might be, here boobs were not fan-fucking-tastic like random-bar-chick's were.

alwaysenduphere November 2 2010, 23:06:43 UTC

ROFFLLLLLL. Seriously, Bobby + Rufus = win, in ANY FORM.

Dean isn't as sleazy as he used to be, and yeah Lisa's part of it but I mean, I can't even remember the last time they made a 'Dean's getting laid' reference. So it was nice to have that moment, yep.

Weirdly enough I kind of liked (kind of, I definitely didn't LOVE it) the episode but agree with every little thing you said here.

I'm also very pissed about the Dean/Lisa ending because this was just so... lame, I don't even know.

and instead of a commercial break, it just faded to black and then came back with them tied up.

LOL that was exactly what I was thinking. I even already switched tabs expecting a commercial break. But oh well.

I agree that it was very predictable. I didn't exactly role my eyes but I wanted to. I do think Sam needs help and I think rationally he just KNOWS he needs help. He probably doesn't want it because he doesn't care about the way he is ticking right now but figuring that there is something missing inside him rationally probably tells him he needs back whatever is not there ( ... )

alwaysenduphere October 30 2010, 02:55:24 UTC

Granted I was distracted for part of it so maybe when I watch it by myself I'll like it better, but I just...I don't know.

YES, LAME. And why the hell couldn't he tell her he was turning into a vampire? It's not like she doesn't know they exist, and the excuse of 'well he didn't want to let her know that he'd brought that into the house' doesn't really work either.

I got up to go to the bathroom and Brett was all NO COME BACK.

Yeah, I buy that Sam said he needs help because he knows that's how he's supposed to feel, but I don't buy that he actually wants it. And haha, yeah, well, without a soul he doesn't really have the concept of knowing that life's not all about being a good hunter anymore, I suppose.

I'm sorry, that's not my intention! LOL, but it's good to know I'm not the only one with issues with it.

hearditbothways October 30 2010, 03:04:09 UTC

And why the hell couldn't he tell her he was turning into a vampire?That is what I'm arguing since last episode. She knows about this stuff, she has been smack in the middle of it, she knows who Dean is and she knows what kind of creatures exist - there is literally no point for Dean to not tell her that he was temporarily a vampire. I do understand that he doesn't want to sit at the dinner table and be all like "So, last night we totally killed a werewolf. He was stealing hearts and eating them but before he could rip Sam's heart out I shot him in the head. There was blood everywhere. And by the way, if you put some aspirin in the washing machine you will get out the blood easier. True story!" but explaining to her why he almost killed Ben is a whole other story because it wasn't really his fault, because he was different and because he thought he he had to be killed so he wanted to say goodbye. (Oh my god, a killer sentence ( ... )
