Supernatural season two premiere
First, people keep talking about James Marsters being cast in P.S. I Love You (which also has Jeffery Dean Morgan, who is, of course, John Winchester in Supernatural). This reminds me of a show I watched when I was younger, also titled that. It disappeared one summer when I was traveling with my father, and no one I've talked to has ever heard of it. (Actually, I think it was P.S.I. Love You, which stood for--Palm Springs Investigations? Something like that? It was the first cop show I ever enjoyed. I think. I was pretty young.) Does anyone recognize this? I can't find anything on IMDB.)
Love the recap. Love it starting with "Bad Moon Rising".
I am way over-empathizing with the truck driver. It could be my dad, possessed and then waking up to realize he's done some serious damage. I have a soft spot for truck drivers.
Okay, the whole Dean talking to the woman and not getting a response, completely not the shock they wanted it to be. The same with him seeing his body. Even for this show, it was totally obvious.
My sister and I got our wires crossed about when she had to work tonight, so I'm not over there watching it with her, but she totally just called me to squee.
Oh, Sammy, yes, yes Dean will be pissed when he sees his car.
Impala. My heart is broken, between Dean and the Impala. Bobby, shut up, don't give up on the Impala. (Not very subtle there, Supernatural.)
Oh, Dean. I wish John could hear the things you're saying.
Aww, John, you would have died for him, but you aren't trying to help him now.
Dean's gonna hit the glass, Dean's gonna hit the glass, Dean's gonna hit the glass.
Oh, look at that. So predictable. And also, Dean, nice pop culture reference.
Come on, Sam, did you really think John would stay in his hospital bed?
This show is (also) (still) terribly problematic with the way it presents women. So the only woman in the episode who talks is tricking Dean and is really a Reaper. (Of course, her point is good, about his borrowed time, but still.)
Um, yeah, John, way to make Latin hot.
I'm glad everyone remembers there is only one bullet left, but how many times do you have to point it out in less than forty minutes? Really, people!
Mmmmm. Deal with the devil (or, you know, close enough), that's also hot, John.
Awwww. Oh, Sam, way to pull the "just starting to be brothers again" card.
Despite the way I feel about women in this show, I do like how blase the Reaper is about Dean's death.
"You're not the first soldier I've plucked from the field."
"They're wrong. The battle goes on without them."
I like those lines.
Aww, Dean, not liking the virgins, huh?
Oh. Oh, the "no such thing as an honourable death", oh that kills me, Dean. This is why I love you. This is why I love you so, so much.
"How do you think angry spirits are born?" That needs to be an icon.
Oh, yeah, Supernatural knows how to push my buttons. Dean becoming the same thing he hunts. John making deals with devils. The honourable death, and Dean not believing it. The soldier in the war against the supernatural.
Damn it, someone tell the viewers what the truth is about Sam and the others. You don't want to end up like Lost, do you?
Demons can posess Reapers? The possibilities!
But John! The way you and Sam fight is part of what I love, because families fight. Of course, families also say they don't want to fight and they don't know what they're fighting about half the time and--damn. Buttons being pushed.
Oh, look at the gray in John's beard.
Of course Dean used to take care of his dad after the hunts. Dean's rock hard and strong and broken inside and a giver and--I think I'm going to cry. Once again with the buttons and family and fathers who don't say they're proud of you often enough but you know, you know they are and you know they love you.
John's crying now. I've just lost it.
Damn it, tears gone, stop with the wack music and tell US what you just told DEAN.
(Man, if it is that easy to run around in a hospital with a gun, I have yet another reason to avoid hospitals.)
10:41 a.m. This seems like the easy storyline. Part of me wants spoilers, because there has to be some sort of twist. Part of me (the biggest part) wants no spoilers at all.
OH MY GOD THEY ARE GOING TO GIVE HIM A FUNERAL PYRE. Supernatural, you are going to kill me--WHAT THE FLYING FUCK WAS THAT A GODDAMN CLOWN I HATE YOU SUPERNATURAL I HATE YOU.
Well.
