I should have figured Jilli would enjoy it.

Vampires! Cute kitties! Why yes, I am predictable.

So we've been watching S2 here at House o' Reason. (Finally!) We are now caught up through "Tall Tales". I was kinda meh on "Houses of the Holy", and the one before that in the bank (tho' it was nice to see that the FBI do have a file on the boys, even if I think that knowing that should make Sam and Dean more goddamn conscientious about wearing gloves when they're breaking into houses or investigating crime scenes).

Nightshifter? Seriously?

That's my hands-down favorite episode of the season. It makes me make high-pitched flailing sounds. I think it's the best hour of TV Edlund's ever done. Pacing! Timing! Balance of humor and HOLY SHIT when Ronald goes down.

Plus, Agent H.

I mean, err. I love it. Completely. I've watched most of it frame-by-frame. It's the episode playing on my iPod Right Now (paused, though, as I'm not, you know, on the bus).

(It's in my Top Ten TV Episodes Ever. Possibly ranked above Home.)

Houses of the Holy had some good lines and character moments, but pacing issues and logic gaps.

Because books.

Plei, you mean X-Files "Home"? Or SPN "Home"?

I'm surprised, too, Jilli. I'm with Plei on Nightshifter. So much good in that ep, and if I start listing all the moments I'll be late for work.

What's your favorite episode so far, just as a barometer?

AtS Home! Which was my previous Favorite Hour of TV Ever.

Sorry. Failed to disambiguate the Homes.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Me three on the surprised. That was the ep that made LJ explode with flail and squeee.

Vampire kitten!! EEE!!

Sam called her Lolita. Dean asked if he had any issues he needed to work out.

Actual coffee, on my keyboard.

A ghost turtle would be so perfect.

That fanvid promo was awesome. Though I couldn't help thinking, "oh, all the people who hate the talking over the music are sad now."

Hmmm. Well, I am going to re-watch it and see if my first so-so reaction holds. Because the pacing was great, and the introduction of the FBI agent was cool. There was just something about it that didn't quite grab me, and I don't know what.

I was spoiled for parts of BUaBS, so I didn't get the HSQ that some others might have. Oh, and proof that I apparently DO share part of my brain with Bobby: as soon as he walked on screen with the bottles of beer I muttered "Please tell me you put holy water in those". And when they figured out the brand on Sam's arm, I was all "Okay, destroy the integrity of the mark! Use a hot poker to disfigure it!"

See? You ARE Bobby!

I was spoiled for it being Meg possessing Sam, and had no HSQ there. It still worked better on rewatch, because I was distracted waiting to see when it would be that they'd figure it out.

Oh! And now you've seen Agent Exceedingly Hot, Smart, and Dimpled!

I think, though, my favorite moment in the whole episode at this exact point in time is where Dean looks at the letter opener and determines that it's silver by scanning it for a hallmark.

Bless.

With better clothing, thankyouverymuch. But I love the idea of sitting down with him and comparing research notes.

I was spoiled for it being Meg possessing Sam, and had no HSQ there.

I wasn't spoiled for that part, so that was a "OMGwhat?!" moment. Which Pete promptly nit-picked by saying "Wait, didn't the YED tell John that they had killed the YED's daughter?"

I was very amused by Dean looking for the silver hallmark on the letter opener. The boy can be very clever. Now if he'd just learn to wear gloves when poking around crime scenes!
