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.

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

Because books.
Take that, Clark Kent!

X-Files. Ahem.

I guess I assumed X-Files would be on the cult list, but I think I've lost the thread of the conversation now.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
I thought X-Files only went 7 seasons?

I thought it went, like, nine? Maybe not. At the end it was all very confusing.

Matt, that's the trauma induced dissociative fugue talking.
(FTR, 9 seasons, and oh, what a painful end).
edit: Amy, you're totally right. I thought eight, but nine it is.

It was quite a while before I even realised I hadn't watched through until the end--there was a point at which quitting it was unthinkable, but Jesus. When it got bad it wasn't worth sticking around for the insanity. No matter my previous love. I booked it, and had some convenient amnesia to boot.

Yeah, it got to Scully having Mulder's baby and I just threw up my hands and waited for any decent monster-of-the-week episodes.
Which is pretty much what I did all along, actually, now that I think about it. The mythology got too tangled, with too many loose ends for me early on. If I cherry-picked episodes to buy, they'd all be MotW, I bet.

Here's a vaguely on-topic question: Do you think Sam and/or Dean would have watched X-Files? And if so, what episodes do you think they would have loved, ironically or not?
I bet Dean would have loved The Unnatural.
