From AWESOME FANTASTIC WOW to... meh
In only one season, Supernatural has gone from the awesome plot and character driven show with kick-ass action, to a barely acceptable, overly dramatic, long-winded, talks-about-their feelings, no plot that makes sense any more... mess.
::sigh:: I knew it was possible, esp. when I hear Kripke was moving on, but with one one show standing out in contrast, this entire season has been utterly forgettable. And I do mean that literally. While I recall a good portion of the first five seasons well past the time I've watched them last, I can barely recall what they've been up to this season mostly because their actions no long make any sense. Seriously, they've gone from competent, stoic hunters to whiny, incompetent fuck-ups.
Yeah, yeah. I'm whining. I know. I think Mr. Thad was worried I'd be shattered when this season didn't pan out. I was wildly excited last summer for the show to commence. But, I'm not shattered. I'm disappointed. I hope they don't get another season, or if they do, someone starts writing the show I used to love, because this? This is not it.
WANTED: New TV show to love. Must have consistent and developing characterizations, kick-ass action, plots that don't make me want to spork my brain, cute dudes, and a story-arc that rocks. The classics of rock soundtrack is a plus, but I'm willing to compromise.
In other news, I'm so busy at work you guys just wouldn't believe! Speed Week followed by Bike Week with no time in between has kept me at work more than I've been at home over the last few weeks. Hopefully, now that Bike Week is here, the worst will be over.
