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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

What Morgana said. Dean's a better foot-soldier; Sam's got more in the way of leadership skills.

OMG, Castiel asking Anna to tell him what to do - fuck, I do love the Dean-Castiel (or Dean/Castiel) dynamic. They're so well matched, bless 'em. They should totally be BFF. Or shag. Or both.

::hugs boys.

And, yes, I do feel very bad for Sammy, I really do. Yes, Dean is the Uberwoobie before which all other woobies bow down, poor bloke, but that doesn't mean one should slag Sammy off. Sammy is having a pretty shitty time of it too, and always has done, and, jings, After School Special killed me, mostly for Sammy - but for both of them (despite the distracting not-prettiness and not-likeableness of Not!Dean). Those poor kids. Damn it, John, you didn't do right by your boys - you may have been a Righteous Man, and a Hero, but that doesn't make for an ideal father. Alas.

::snuggles all Winchesters, including kickass Mary and her parents, and feeds them chicken soup::

Mind you, I do really, really wish that Sam would stop lying!!! And that someone would take him to one side and say: "Pride comes before a fall! And in this case, the fall in question? Would be Lucifer's. And you're going to end up being his meatsuit, if you don't try to put the breaks on NOW!"

Oh my God.... Supernatural enacted as Easter eggs!

That is awesome! Man, she'd told me she was making an Impala out of styrofoam, so I knew it was going to be quite the, uh, eggstravaganza, but I had no notion here would be SO much detail! I think I liked John in heaven best of all.

(Claire is the very person who has enabled my SPN-appreciation by sending me a disk of 4.11-4.16. She is made of win.)

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Very cute!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The UK Times puts SPN on its list of 50 Best US Shows:

11. Supernatural

The best thing to hit ITV2 since the last power cut: if you’re not watching this show, you really should be.

Good job, my people!

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Did anyone read the EW April 10th issue? EXTREMELY spoilery although that really was to be expected. This close to the end of the season are they going to NOT say something.

Anyway no spoilers here-- but I'd never heard Jared or Jensen talk so negatively about the show. Not really negative, but really not positive either. I guess I am so used to hearing the PR spin that it shocked me to read Jensen say ((paraphrasing)) they'd have to back a Brink's truck up to get him after season 5. Jared sounding almost despondent. ((Again paraphrasing)) What's the point. I do interviews to get more famous to do more photo shoots to be more famous to do interviews. I'm tired of talking about myself.

Dudes, you're bumming me out. There is lip service to "we've told all the stories we can tell" and then there is ...i dunno.

On the brighter side, the angle of the story was how popular SHOW is becomming in the 4th season.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

They're probably exhausted.

Because books.

I read the article, Austin. It was a little surprising, but I took it as mostly how exhausting it is to be a) so far from home, b) constricted by the nine-month shooting schedule, and c) responsible for so very much of the show's success, i.e. in every episode, and nearly always in 75% of the scenes on any given one.

I don't blame them for that, really. They're young, and this attention could be leading to more interesting roles -- if they had time to do them.

Plus, Jensen has seen what happens to CW shows that go on too long (Smallville, I'm looking at you). Much as I love SPN, I really would rather it go out on a high note and see the boys in other things, than sit through something like BtVS S7 again.
