100 Reasons I Adore Supernatural [picspam]
This is my first attempt at a picspam. Gods, they take ages to do, don't they? :) I have a whole new level of appreciation for those lovely people who share them with fandom on a regular basis. *kudos*
I also have a whole new depth of love for the wonderful people who actually screencap all the episodes. What an amazing resource! All of the pictures here come (mainly) from the following sites and individuals - Oxoniensis_Art, Supernatural.tv, Supernaturalwiki.com, raloria, willoweese, irisgirl12000 and ohbooth. You guys all absolutely rock. If I could bake, I'd send you bikkies. :) There's also some pics that come from CW promos and other places that I unfortunately can't remember now. Many of them have been re-sized so that I could get some semblance of uniformity for this spam. And, er, there's a couple with added text where I just couldn't help myself.
So. 100 pictures behind the cut. Spoilers for all episodes so far aired in the US and here in Australia. Not at all dial-up friendly. Language warning. (I'm a swearer. *grin*)
1. because this shot is absolutely sublime
2. "If we are going down, we're going down together."
3. because Dean will not miss
4. because they gave us Sam & Dean in SWAT gear
5. because Jared showed us so beautifully that there IS no way to adequately answer the question "Dude! Could you be more gay?"
6. because there is only one way to improve a shirt this ugly and that is to put a man like Jensen Ackles inside it
7. because they've used Bad Company songs now how many times? Five? That's cool.
8. because of their twinny moments in actions
9. and their twinny moments in dialogue
10. because the Impala IS the sexiest, classiest, most beautiful and iconic car EVER on tv
11. because Sam understands how much the Impala means to Dean
12. because it has spoons
13. because of that beautiful trail of tacky motel rooms - most of all, it must be said, the infamous Birch Room
14. and how the Disco Room is the only one to ever get a reaction from our heroes
15. because the boys wear suits (though Sam is always much more comfortable in one than Dean)
16. because we found out Sammy's a demon in the sack (if you'll pardon the expression)
17. because we love Bobby Singer (and Jim Beaver!)
18. and Ellen rocks
19. and Ash proves that only a certified genius could possibly make a mullet like that work
20. because Ava was funny and quirky and then… surprising
21. because Andy woke up in Frontier Land!
22. because the boys prank each other
23. because they have some of the best episode titles
24. because Sammy watches porn (was it dyke porn, too? "Casa Erotica 4: Two Latin Beauties"?)
25. and because Dean catches him
26. because Sam made a "Friends" reference
27. because Sam watched Dean having a threesome. With twins. (And Dean slapped him on the thigh and thanked him for it afterward.)

29. because Dean's signature says "D. Hasselhoff"

33. because they act so much like brothers
34. because Dean's a Motorhead fan
35. because Jensen knocked this one so far out of the park, the ball's still missing

43. because Sam won't be called "Sammy" by anyone but his big brother (now that their Dad's gone, that is)
44. because Jeffrey Dean Morgan is one extremely attractive man
45. because of handcuffs around Dean's wrists (but never for long, thanks)
46. because everyone assumes they're a gay couple
47. and Sam seems interestingly nonplussed about that
48. because Dean somehow managed to fudge his official police record in order to be as tall as Sam
49. because the two defining moments of Dean's life are, firstly, carrying his baby brother out of their burning home when he was 4
50. and, secondly, having his baby brother die in his arms twenty-three years later
51. because the writers trust their actors and the actors trust their writers and the two of these things put together can give us a beautiful scene completely devoid of dialogue that, just with looks and expressions, says everything we want the three Winchester men to say to one another
52. hand porn
53. pen porn
54. gun porn
55. ring porn
56. hand/pen/gun/ring porn

66. because ACDC stepped up when Metallica proved themselves (yet again) to be a bunch of, admittedly talented, dicks
67. because Bobby's car is a '71 Shelby
68. because Dean Winchester has had it with these muthafuckin' demons on this muthafuckin' plane!
69. because every now and then the boys are just such BRATS! (and given the tough life they lead, it's such a joy to see them get the opportunity to be so)
70. because the Impala made her beautiful, triumphant return to the indulgent soundtrack of ACDC's Back In Black. Kick. Fuckin. Arse.
71. because occasionally Dean gets distracted by his lil' brother
72. because sickly pale, at-deaths-door Dean is rather shaggable
73. because Jo actually turned out okay, even if she had awful taste in music
74. because no bloke who's 6'4" should ever look this at ease reclining upon the bonnet and windscreen of a classic car
75. because Linda Blair isn't a stick-insectoid, willowy supermodel 20-year-old
76. and neither is Jessica Steen
77. nor Samantha Ferris either
78. Woo guns!
79. because humming Metallica calms Dean down
80. because Carmen really was an excellent choice for Dean (and we know that's true, because his own subconscious was in charge)

I also have a whole new depth of love for the wonderful people who actually screencap all the episodes. What an amazing resource!
