Hmm. I found that mostly fun, not particularly deep, and a bit dodgy with regards to the sacrifice of Corbett. Who I think is the first gay male we've actually seen on the show, if I'm not mistaken. Pity he had to die in order to save everyone else, even the guy who found his love distasteful. Pity the only other gay character we've seen, the lesbian in AHBL1, also died.
Oh, Edlund. I bet you think you're being coy.
Show, if you make frequent homophobic jokes, and then when you have a gay characters, kill them off immediately, that doesn't actually say a lot for your attitude about people who don't share your heterosexuality.
And yet despite that, Sam and Dean didn't make any tasteless homophobic jokes, and Maggie survived and was a bit snarky (I'm trying to ignore the "oh I'm scared please kiss me" business), and Sam and Dean were smart in the end. If a bit unkind to these well-meaning amateurs.
I enjoyed the ep, but the beginning sans Sam and Dean carried on for too long
Yeah, I was getting really impatient, but once they arrived on the scene, I got a kick out of seeing them from
Ghostfacers
POV.
Hey, did anyone else see this cat macro? (On thread topic, I swear!)
Hee.
Stupid baseball. I wish that the game had been rained out - but nnoooo they just had enough delays that the show started so late that I . . . okay, this is where when I'm tired I get stupid. I had my tivo set up to record 90 minutes beyond the scheduled time. Would have gotten Smallville AND SPN fine BUT I was thinking 90 minutes total so went up the next level - which was show plus 3 hours. So, last night's show takes up 4 hours of space. I'm so tired.
I got up and watched this morning: I LOVED the boys' entrance. I'm thinking that they have fewer shows they're spending more $$$ on music. Excellent.
I loved the little skulls when the boys swore. The Hellhounds in tuxes reminded me of Andrew and his Masterpiece Theatre thing. The dude with the bodies having the birthday party in the bomb shelter was nicely creepy.
And the promo was totally made of Squee!
Boooo. My Tivo did not record. Sniff.
Oh, that sucks, Suzi. I should have it via itunes before next week, if you want to come over and watch.
It should be up on the CW website.
Matt Roush had nice things to say in his Thursday preview:
The other returning show I screened in advance was Supernatural, and no slight to NBC’s lineup, but this could well be the funniest hour on tap on any network tonight. Screams of laughter mingle with screams of terror as our heroes stumble into an inspired parody of Sci Fi’s Ghost Hunters, here called “GhostFacers,” an “unsolicited pilot” courtesy of that amateur-ghostbuster Mutt-and-Jeff duo Harry Spangler and Ed Zeddmore, from the first season’s “Hell House” episode
Interview with Brittany Ishibashi (Maggie Zedmoore).
I should have it via itunes before next week, if you want to come over and watch.
I get no outside playdates until after the 7th. But I might splurg at iTunes, myself. I'm just really annoyed cause I have my season pass all set-up, it SHOULD have recorded, but decided it didn't want to for what ever reason. I missed the first 20 minutes and wanted to rewatch.
AHhhhh, thanks Sumi - will check CW for free rewatching.
Not yet up on the CW. . . darn it.
Dudes, dooooods. I know I'm sometimes slow on the uptake, but Ed Zeddmore? Was totally named after Ernie Hudson's character in Ghostbusters, Winston Zeddmore. Thank you, Ben, for that tip of the hat.
