You know you've grown up when you stop thinking "Mmm, pasta and cheese", and go "Mmm, pasta and cheese... Wait a minute, I can't eat just pasta and cheese. There's no vegetables in pasta and cheese. Where the hell can I get tomatoes and leek at this hour?" instead.
At
BuddyTV here (non-spoiler version apparently) they say about s4 of SPN:
I'd like to see season 4 come to an end with the big war we've been promised. The writers can figure out exactly what to show us, but I think it'd be interesting if the war happened and season 5 was all about the aftermath. Maybe the final season could even be set in a post-apocalyptic landscape. That'd not only be dark and fascinating, but it'd certainly be cheap to pull off.
I could not disagree more. I thought Buffy was already walking a line when the whole school and basically the entire population of Sunnydale knew about their demon infestation, but when in season 7 slayers rose across the world and Sunnydale sunk into an apocalyptic hole, I thought they took it too far and made the Buffyverse too open.
I'd want hunting to stay an underground thing and not actually involve the whole world, or even too many people. I like that it's a fight that takes place behind the scenes, that our heroes are ones that will likely never be recognised, and that they are one of a kind. As long as the supernatural is not explicit, its easier to imagine that this hidden world actually exists somewhere. Post-apocalyptic landscape, how much more involved can the world get? I'd prefer [demon-ghost-monster]-guerilla warfare. You know, the whole the threat you cannot see is scarier than the one you can.
But I agree on wanting Ellen, Jo and Ash. I was sorry we never saw any of them in season 3, and I for one would like to see any of them again (Especially Ellen, but even Jo, who never bothered me and who is obviously not love-interest material, though Dean ought to feel free to bang her if they both like. He needs more action, frankly). I like continuity that way.
