Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?  

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

See Jilli be cranky and Bobby-like!

You only say that because I was willing to trade Bobby to save the car. It's a really cool car though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Get ahold of this rumour: Neil Gaiman’s ‘Sandman’ Moving to TV, Possibly With ‘Supernatural’ Creator Eric Kripke on Board.

Whoa. Oh, the multiple incest opportunities that follow that man around,

I was just coming here to post that. I ... I am conflicted about that news. I mean, hello, Kripke is a frothing Gaiman fanboy, so that could be good. But do I trust Kripke with Death from the Sandman? No.

Yeah. Gaiman needs a subtle touch. Kripke can say some impressive things, and let some other impressive enough stuff stay unsaid, but that's not the same thing as being deft.

Death? Delirium? Desire?

Hmmm.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I agree with the link that TV is probably a better medium for Sandman than film. Other than that, I don't quite know how to react. Wait and see if anything comes of it, I suppose.

Um... A lot of Gaiman things fall through? Which is to say, "But do I trust Kripke with Death from the Sandman?" No, not so much. But I like to be pleasantly surprised, so I can be hopeful? Okay, I can try.

Wow, so Seasons 4 and 5 really were the world's most elaborate pitch meeting to woo an author!

::clutches head::

No, I don't trust him with any of those characters. Sorry, I just don't. I fear he'd fall into the trap of making Death and Delirium too cutesy. Death is charming-but-pragmatic, and Del is charming but unsettling. (IMO, and I admit that I may have irrational attachment issues about the Sandman characters.)
