this week's Supernatural
I liked this one okay for a humor episode, which often aren't my thing. Like many others I'm not thrilled that the gay guy was the one who had to die, but at least I found this less hard on my embarrassment squick than it could have been with this type of humor, though some of it made me cringe. Overall it wasn't as awful to the geek boys (and girl) than it could have been. They were kind of in over their head, and very focused on the whole tv thing, despite the danger, but still likable.
I didn't find the episode scary, but it had its funny moments, though I might have gotten more out of it if I was familiar with whatever they were doing a parody of. Still, I liked the outsider POV and the fake tv series trope, though sometimes the jerky camera and scrambled picture was too disorienting for my tastes, and I also liked how Sam and Dean took care of destroying the evidence. (Well at least the tv footage, I assume there is another dead body going to be found with their fingerprints all over the house, and I doubt the remaining geek troupe will volunteer for any testimony or take the blame.)
I really wish I hadn't ended up with their stupid fake Ghostfacers jingle in my head for quite some time, though.
