I have a raging toothache, have had since last night, so if I'm extra bitchy, it's probably just the pain. Not when it comes to anything having to do with Lois though. That's just the usual.
Was that a... *looks around* lightswitch?
I wasn't really interested in any of this episode except for the Clark and Chloe stuff, and pointing and laughing hysterically at Nois Lame.
I mean, Lex gets abducted and/or shot every couple of episodes, and Lana's just annoying and bug-eyed as ever. Who cares? She's totally getting taken for a ride, and if she wasn't so stupid, she'd know it.
Clark's new power was super funny, though they never really explained why he had a cold. You would think since he was back on earth, he'd be invincible again, so that didn't really make sense.
Damn it, barn door! Can't you do anything right? You were supposed to kill Lois, not let her see you! Argh.
Speaking of Nois, this was possibly the most absurd storyline I've ever seen on this show, and that would be saying something. I know 'lightswitch' is being bandied about a lot tonight, but no one can help it, because that's what it was. It was a clumsy, fumbled one at that.
I didn't believe they could make her look any more stupid than she already was, but they did a damn good job of it. They cannot possibly think they are building this idiot up to be THE Lois Lane. It's more like they're trying to make her a joke (though most of us already knew that), and since the other characters are laughing at her now, it's working.
All in all, this has to be a joke. If it's not, I'll cry, because it's just too pathetic.
Anyway, I think the sheer stupidity of the situation has been covered, and there's not a lot more to say. Except my mom, who hardly ever mocks, was laughing at Lois and saying, "This is so stupid." That's a fairly good gauge for me. lol
Chloe and Clark were just adorable in this. The first sneezing scene at the DP when he nearly destroyed the bullpen, then he totally faked her out and she leapt for her papers. That was a jerky thing to do, but also adorable, because Tom smiles at Allison like he smiles at no one else. It's so genuine and easy, and sooo cute. Chloe thought it was funny, too, after he was gone. He only ever teases her. hee
Then the scene at the office where Chloe told him to blow. lol I had already seen that online, but it doesn't get old. I swear, she is so his brain, and he wouldn't be able to do anything without her. Then they got into the safe, and he wouldn't let her come with him from there. That was unusual. I know he was powered down, but Chloe can generally take care of herself, so his concern was really sweet. And of course, I think it might mean something more, but I don't know. It just seemed like more concern than usual.
At the end I couldn't stop squeeing! That was such a date. And Chloe was so holding a Superman shield. hehehe Of course, I cried foul when Nois showed up, but then they laughed at her and she left, so all was well. Then Clark blew the clouds away because he wanted Chloe to have a nice day, and they were so freakin' adorable.
I'm really glad to see they were just hanging out, instead of the constant scenario that followed us around last season, where Clark was just unable to use Google. He loves her. He totally does.
I'm not impressed by Oliver. I don't find him attractive, and he doesn't seem like that great of an actor, so meh. Whatever. I'll tolerate him, but if he makes Clark jealous of him and Lois, I will kill him. Mark my words. I got my eye on you, Queen.
Oh, Dean! Oh, Sam! Oh, DEAN!!!!!!! *weeps*
This is terrible, y'all. I liked this episode all right, though the case felt less like a case, and more like something to do to try to get your mind off the grief. Been there, done that. I just didn't chase a killer clown.
Which didn't really bother me much, since it wasn't gory or anything. It's probably one of the tamest Supernaturals I've ever seen.
The clown thing did lead to some lighter lines, like Dean teasing Sam about clowns. I knew one of them would have a phobia.
I like Ellen. I think she and John must have had a thing, too. Jo I can take or leave. I don't like her much, but she hasn't done anything to make me hate her so far. I'm not terribly worried about it due to recent reassurances and the fact that Alona and Jensen had no chemistry. *shrug* Actually, I think a more interesting development would be if they ended up friends. I could actually like that. They could have hunting in common, and I'm sure Dean's never just had a girl as a friend and nothing more. That would be the original, interesting way to go. Maybe he could be a little more vulnerable with her than he can with Sam or whatever, because Sam's really all he's got and he's a guy, so he's not going to let anything out with him.
I just can't take the serious Dean and Sam scenes. They are breaking my heart. Especially Dean with his pent-up rage and sadness, and the secret he carries because of John. Losing John would've been enough on its own, but he's lost half of the family he had left, and there's no realistic way to do this but to show the toll that's taking. Which just might kill me, because Jensen can do that.
I swear, every time he was trying not to cry at the mention of John, when he was crying at the "funeral"... Jesus, Jensen. Just stop being so freaking awesome.
That last scene sucked in that it didn't. Sam admitting he wasn't all right, and then leaving and Dean just beating the shit out of his car, which is barely standing again. Oh my God.
For one thing, I know he's angry at the demon and he's sad because his father meant everything to him. But I think maybe he's starting to see what happened and he's angry at John for doing that to him. Even if it was for him, Dean is the kind of person that would die for his father, and he would die for his brother, but there's no way in hell he would want them to sacrifice themselves for him. I think he knows that John knew he was going to die because of what he told him, and he knows why he knew he was going to die. I don't think Sam has put the pieces together yet, so Dean has no one to share that knowledge with. That's not going to help him, because I have a feeling he and his dad always kept a lot of things from Sammy, and that's just the way it was. Now Dean is essentially in the protect Sammy business on his own, at least until he realizes that he's grown, too, and maybe he doesn't need protecting anymore.
*sigh* God, he just kills me.
