That was wonderful. Your run-down of Bobby's TV watching habits seemed spot-on! And I was so stumped as to what the ep 4 spoiled might be. HAHAHA. What a hoot!

I'm glad my choices worked for you! Every time they've mentioned TV or movies, they tend to surprise me. :)

Thank you!

I'm enjoying it a lot too - and I'm very curious about what's coming up. All the tidbits I've heard are very intriguing!

I like how you managed to tag all of the bits and pieces of TV programming. I love that you can do that...very cool.

lol- I wondered how Dean got so involved with the telenovela- didn't think his Spanish was that good!
I was never much into TV- but we moved around a lot when I was a kid, and I recognize the safe place you create no matter where you are, with people you know and can always go back to (books, in my case)

Dean grumbling himself into contentment with what he's got works beautifully- reminds me of that Camus quote- 'in the depths of winter I discovered in myself an endless summer". Dean's always had that ability, strained as it has been, and lately I've felt like he's just trying to fake it till he makes it so, but it's nice to see it really work for him.

They always say that about opera - that if the performers are skilled enough, you can tell what's going on without being able to translate. I figured that would work with telenovelas just as well, particularly if Bobby can translate bits and pieces.

I think you're right about Dean - at least until recently, he's always been able to find little pockets of contentment for himself. Here's hoping he can get back to that!

Glad you enjoyed the fic. :)

Like this one a lot, no surprise there, huh? I'm liking the tone this season, too. So far.
