Supernatural 3.16 and Season 3 in general...
I feel ungrateful. I feel ungrateful because I'm hanging out with my husband, bitching about the show. Specifically, that 3x16 wasn't the perfect hour of television that 2x22 was.
It was good. I loved lots of little things. But it wasn't perfect.
Interestingly, I'd categorize my season three experience as disappointing. I say "interestingly" because when I look at the episode list, there are only four episodes of the sixteen that I wouldn't watch again. And of those four, I'm exaggerating about two. The other two are 3x01 and 3x14.
And here's where it gets interesting: I really don't like 3x01. Really, really. And I think that initial disappointment has kind of tainted my overall impression of the season, even though I've liked most of the episodes and loved quite a few. Which is sad. Because I want to feel like I enjoyed the season -- and I did, I know I did -- but I don't feel that.
Anyway. I was definitely surprised by the ending. I expected something different, that's for sure. And I'm a little fearful of what's coming, and a little sad that this year's ending wasn't as brilliant as last year's. And I'm not looking forward to a summer's worth of hell and post-hell fic.
I'm not disabling comments, but I really don't want to talk about the episode until I've seen it a few more times. I kind of hate doing that, even though I seem to do it all the time. But I'm really kind of not prepared to jump for joy or defend my non-jumpingness right now, so. Hope everyone got everything they wanted out of it, though!
