'Get It Done'
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
And unexplained fatalities. The FBI can track him with his libido.
He's much like his name buddy Sam Carter in that way.
Plastic!Winchester Theater is awesome with a side of awesome. anteka also did that Impala meta that Bev mentioned.... somewhere back there.
I had to look up Sam Carter because I haven't seen SG-1 yet. I watched Atlantis on disk (so hurry up Tuesday), and I plan on catching up with the original. That character is joining Atlantis in the new season, yes? Everyone she sleeps with dies? I hope she stays away from Rodney McKay.
Poor Sam. She and Janet weren't even canon, and even Janet died.
Sam should become a nun, clearly.
Joss always managed to have his angsty conversations in the middle. Or even better, he set up situations where the viewers were having those conversations for him, because he'd implied so well that all that was necessary was a look, or one line, to invoke the whole situation.
Well, for 3 or 4 seasons, at least. After that, it was all Magical Car Crashes and Scene Chewing Monologues on a Cross.

He also killed Wash, Book, Doyle, Darla, Cordelia, Fred, Wesley, Lindsey, Darla, Tara, Joyce, and Xander's Eye. I don't want the writers to take notes.
signed,
explicitizing the implicit is not the show-writer's job. That is the fandom's job!
You have me there. But I still adore it. ::smishes the show:: And now that I think about it, I like their explicitizing better than fandom's explicitizing. Fandom has the kerfluffle. The show just has the pretty.

But...interstices! And...characters we would have loved had we gotten more than two minutes with them! And canon character observation from outside POVs! And, well, crackfic!
And vid-visions!
There are some shows that are magnified and made more complete by fandom, I think. If one can ignore the wankerage and kerfuffle.
Any girl that Sam seems to come in contact with...ends up killed or hurt.Well the women in Sam's life.
His mother,his girlfriend(Jessica) and what's her face. Werewolf chick.
Madison, Abbey.
But Sarah Blake is still alive! As is Jo! There's hope yet, for Sam.
Yeah. I forgot. Shame on me. Temporary memory loss.
What about AVA? Ava was killed. Jo could have most likely killed Jo if Dean hadn't shown up. Maybe evil Sam would have just tortured her.

I completely agree and thank the heaven above for the things you list Bev.
When I am thankful the show is explicit rather than implicit is when Betty's interpretation is different than Archie's interpretation, and Archie can't believe that Betty could ever think his characters would even consider acting in such a way. Betty thinks that Archie is intellectually challenged for proposing such a ludicrous hypothesis about her show. Archie calls Betty a whore and the mods break it up.
Fan ownership ::shudders::
Well yes, there is that.
I confess to more than a little private fan ownership. But just because in my 'verse Wash is still flying Serenity, I don't demand everybody else think the same way. I do enjoy discussion and varying PsOV and even some ardent argument occasionally, as long as, aside from the wacky fun of crackfic, fanwank at least orbits canon. But I do see what you're saying, and even agree, that fan ownership can be divisive, ridiculous and awful for a fandom.
Doesn't stop me from searching out excellent vids of extraordinary vision, or fic with perception and heart.
But that's how *I* watch teevee, and certainly nobody else needs follow my example. I just am happy there're others out there of similar mind and vaster talent than I.
