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.

Because books.

Sam setting off indoor Molotov cocktails was the most in character thing that happened.

Okay then.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

With a movie version, at least you've got the possibility of them bringing in a script doctor to rewrite the entire thing fix up the worst parts.

Damn, I'd end up reading the books if I knew he was in the movie.

I figure if him being in a movie hasn't lit a fire under me to read the Joyce Carol Oates source material, I'll be safe from the compulsion to read Twihard fanfic. (I did actually contemplate checking out Blonde at the library yesterday, but opted for a new Stephen King short story collection instead.)

Art Crawl!!!

Ty Olsson (Capt Kelly from BSG) is going to be on SPN.

I forgot that was a Joyce Carol Oates work, actually. Her stuff is really hit or miss for me, though.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Ty Olsson was Eli the bartender, "How's it goin'?" "Livin' the dream" in Bloodlust.

He was also the Bereford's butler/driver in The Beresford Agenda.

Also, the original Deputy Andy on Eureka.

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

If you're writing an article about superhero TV shows, and you raise the idea of Person of Interest as a superhero show in order to dismiss it as not one--don't you need to consider Supernatural? Even if you're going to say "But magic!" Sam's psychic visions and hand of ipecac weren't spells. And if it doesn't count, it at least bears raising to dismiss *way* more than Person of Interest which has nothing whatsoever to do with the genre--they might as well mention 24, with Bauer's superpower of never taking a dump.

Oh my god, I just literally spit tea all over the place.

I could say I'm sorry, but I'm pretty sure you'd sense my insincerity from where you're sitting...

The seasons of 24 weren't consecutive 24 hour periods, were they? Because if Freedom and America are on the line and one's racing the clock every waking moment, holding off til the next morning doesn't strike me as all that amazing.
