Personally, my guess is that his innate demon powers prevent the ghost from infecting him. (Like the powers are a bigger infection or something.)
Plastic Winchester Theatre - people: it had me laughing out loud and on a day when I am unusually irate.
Plastic Winchester Theatre was cute. Thanks for the link, sumi.
And I think I agree about the larger "infection" of demon powers preventing Sam from getting the ghost sickness.
The script was probably the weakest we've seen this season, which has been very strong so far. Still? Far and away better than most of S3.
I had exactly Jilli's thought. Reenactment is not the magic called for in that particular situation. ::slamsbookofshadowsshutwithauthority::
I've just recently seen Sahjahn, for whom my love is so pure, as a sketchy journalist in Kindred: The Embraced. He must have made some supernatural deal because he looks almost exactly the same today!
Kindred: The Embraced
Daedelus! ::swoons:: (Waits for Jilli to point and laugh)
Oh hush. Jeff Kober's sensitive Nosferatu was exactly who I thought of the other day when Cindy mentioned changes the Master was undergoing.
Sahjahn-guy played a sheriff very recently on House as well.

Y'know, I've never actually watched the show. I had (okay,
have
) so much baggage about the parent IP for that show that I just haven't been able to bring myself to watch. Should I?
It was romantic at the time. Pretty laughable now, only in comparison to all the various vamplore that's come after it. I liked the main actor, and the patriarch--who was Sidney on The Pretender. The interclan squabbles were fun. It ended in just about the right place, before the scripts veered from grand opera to soap opera, I think.
There definitely were some grand romantic notions, which I enjoyed. It's probably worth a rental and a once-through, only 12-13 episodes, as I recall.
I loved the Jack Davenport, Idris Elba Brit Ultraviolet, too, for a one-eighty POV of vampires from Kindred.
It has some good acting (and hysterically bad acting—hello, C. Thomas Howell!), and the art direction & cinematography are pretty lush. But it suffers VERY badly from pretentious clunky dialogue, made even worse if you're aware of the gamespeak behind it.

So I'll giggle so much that I risk hyperventilating? Good to know.
But the lead was very attractive.
