They are just amazing.
I do agree with your take on Ackles acting. He says so much with so little :)

You raised a good point about Ruby's reason for selling her soul, I hadn't considered it at all. I still don't trust her, because a good demon seems too, uh, good to be true.
has me looking sideways these days at my sometimes seemingly psychic iPod when the random shuffle tosses up the perfect tune ...
^ Is it a bad thing that whenever I start to talk about Dean, The Clash's "Straight to Hell" starts playing?

Tee-hee!! Have to look into that one ... *grin*

I'm not really buying Ruby's "I remember what it's like to be human" spiel & I hope Dean thinks about it long & hard before helping to "toughen" Sam.
That arms-crossed, legs-apart pose is exactly the same every time we see her. I am so with you on this, Mary!!!! It's that "see how badass I am" pose. I don't remember it in this episode, but it's bugged me for a while...I also hate when she shows her demon eyes. How she lowers her head
& looks up through her eyelashes.
If Sam insists on making himself into a version of his older brother in order to survive and keep fighting, who or what will serve as his sounding board and conscience, to keep him from making mistakes he would bitterly regret?
So true! We know it isn't going to be Ruby...I still believe that lying beyotch has her own agenda. One that has little or nothing to do with saving mankind. Sam is going to be so pissed when he finds out that she's been lying to him about the deal.
What the boys really need is a way ( ... )

And without Sam providing the essential counterbalance he always did in the past, will Dean have confidence that the hard choices he’s making now are the right ones?
I didn't think of that, but yes, this is a very scary thought. It's got to make him feel even more alone without having the comfort of being able to predict at least his own brother's behavior.
I’m still bothered by the third season’s brightness and color saturation. The show has lost much of the unique look that the first two seasons hadThis has bothered me quite a lot as well. I feel as though the art direction in the first and most of the second season has really devolved. There used to be such a great atmosphere to the show--very X-filesy, I admit--but lovely. And I wonder if the change can at all be attributed to unusual weather. There were quite a few sunny episodes, that could have benefited from gloomy, overcast days. But one must shot on the scheduled shooting ( ... )

As was made fun of in "Hollywood Babylon" when the man from the head office is complaining "can't the film be lighter?"

I guess we got part of our answer on the lighting from Kripke's latest interview, but here's hoping that we'll get our true darks back one of these days, at least on the night shots! I have no problem with sunlight in daylight - and the sun does shine in Vancouver! - but those full-moon-and-then-some nights have been a bit much!
