wrt bench seats... Big old bench seats like that are usually in two pieces, aren't they? Constance Welsh tipped Sam back without tipping the whole seat, didn't she? Our big ol' cars with bench seats were actually in two pieces.
Plei would know, she's got the manual.
So, that's how Sam still has legroom when Dean is driving?
I've had this conversation before, about where the demon-control stuff comes from: all the Catholic material on the show is basically pre-Vatican II, not because the writers are all old farts or Mel Gibson, but because The Exorcist performs Catholicism in a pre-II manner
Huh. That is a very good point, and one I'd never really thought about. But a lot of the horror genre toolkit for black magic comes from pre-Vatican II. When it's not bastardizing Voudon, that is.
I adore the idea of Dean being conceived in the Impala.
Two-doors had a split front seat back, so you could tip it to crawl into the back seat. Four-doors...dunno. Plei?
Kripke did say early on (half-S1, maybe?) that they intended to hew to the urban legends, and had researched several seasons' worth. After S2 veered into theological, emotional, and psychological territory, he said more recently (end of S2) that they wanted to get back to less character-driven, more-action plots, and the 200-odd demons escaped from hell's gate would provide ample occasion for that. I don't think S3 will be as heavy on urban legend, because you've got demonic forces at work. Kripke was quoted as saying rock salt wouldn't be effective with what they're dealing with this season, but they'd be stocking up on holy water.
I think that JA said something similar about holy water (at Comicon, maybe.)
If they are the ones to finally use the holy water pistols they will win. Just win.
Super-soakers!!!
I've been waiting for that.
Xander would be bitter.
Holy water pistols would be SO Dean. Someone call Kripke, please.

I'd have to check. Yes, that's one of the reasons I own the manual, but it's in the other room. (I'm WAH right now. Hahaha.)
