Jayne ,'Jaynestown'
[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.
I think i'm going to go home and watch this ep again tonight. i spent most of last night with my heart in my throat. they are really breaking Dean(and in the process me).
I do think we've finally found something Misha doesn't do well. fight scenes. his hits looked so wimpy! i'm surprised ita hasn't been in here complaining about his technique.
The J's and Christopher Heyerdahl certainly have more experience on their resumés for that particular skill.
ita is undergoing medical treatment we hope will relieve some of her pain.
I am just. so. tired. of the tin ear on Show.
Surely we are not the only part of fandom who notices this? Have the showrunners really missed all the criticism on this? Or do the showrunners know and just not care?
I think they've improved a lot on misogyny issues this year, but the racial aspect is still troublesome.
ita is undergoing medical treatment we hope will relieve some of her pain.
is she? good! i hope so too. (i don't get into Natter or Bitches like i wish i could. there's never enough time!)
"Shit, they just made another black character a Judas, and then dead" was a judgment.
Gotta say, not having seen the ep, just reading here, that was certainly what I thought. For fuck's sakes. SO needlessly fucking crap. Why must they be shit about race? Why?
Oh, show. I don't know how to quit you. You give me the doomed hot uberwoobies, and angels on the brink of falling, and cute wee death!girl, and badass demons, and, and, and you just know ALL my sweet spots. And yet you bring the squicky race issues, damn you.
From the recaplet on TWoP:
And in the end, as Dean lies broken and battered on a hospital bed after deceitful Uriel allowed the demon to escape the trap in order to beat Our Intrepid Hero to a bloody pulp, it falls to Castiel to explain that the righteous man who started it all is also the only one who can stop it, so Dean must pull himself together for the sake of humanity, and it's all very depressing indeed, what with The Stumpy Little Bow-Legged Lamb Of God all, "Let this cup pass from me!" and My Sweet Baboo all, "Sorry, dude," and not one, but two manly tears dropping from Dean's wasted eyes, and I think I'll go kill myself now.
Sorry, yes, I know Dean's man-pain is epic and all, but "The Stumpy Little Bow-Legged Lamb Of God" made me laugh.

Something to ponder while we wait for next week: [link]
Some promo pictures I at least have not seen before.
