So much love to
wendywoowho for sending me
this link which will allow a free download of Supernatural for those in the US (and maybe Canada?), and thanks to
cedarlibrarian who waited patiently for me so we could watch Show in tandem.
Love for Show.
Still nonplussed by name of Girl just after Jensen in the credits - why aren't they Guest Stars if they're not in every episode? - and Intrigued by her Cheating Blade, but, well, it's a Cheating Blade. Having her be Better Than Sammy (and omg am so intrigued by "prodigy" and "boy king" terms that Pride threw at him!) isn't really accurate when she has a Cheating Blade, but I'd love to (a) know more about it, and (b) learn how the boys are gonna get it because they will, right? No, don't spoil me if you actually know.
Love Dean slutting around and refusing to give into the angst and adore Sam when he is totally giving into the angst.
Yay, Bobby.
Adore Tamara, and would like to have them meet up with *her* every so often - she seems much more intriguing than Partridge chick (yes that is a pun and I will admit that I'm looking forward to seeing Daddy David at one of the Eat to the Beat concerts at Epcot in a few weeks) and I'm really curious about *her* backstory and omg the bleach-drinking was so ewwwwwww that I couldn't watch it at all.
I love how they finally got a body into the trunk on-screen - I know Kripke's said in interviews that he wanted them to have a car where they could put a body in the trunk so I'm sure that this was an oh, finally moment for that. Loved the music choices and the montage and I like the new intro but...
I think I need to see it again - tomorrow night - because right now I am just made of *flail* and can't be as coherent as I want to be. No way am I going to manage to fall asleep now...
Why was the episode so short? 43-44 minutes is more normal, and this wasn't even that long so...
But the boys are back and show is back and I am so so glad that it is.
If you've never watched an ep of SPN, I really recommend taking advantage of the free download. No, you won't get all of the plot and characterization nuances, but you can definitely enjoy this ep and if you do, then go to the first two seasons and pick up the backstory.
Even if you don't necessarily plan to watch it, if you have a high speed net connection and don't pay for bandwith, please download it so the CW sees good numbers from itunes for this. Please. It might help a good show stay on the air.
