I don't know what the hell they were thinking with this pilot.
Not us, and I don't feel the least bit schaudenfreudy about it. It's not like the things they added are what we've been clamouring for.
I'd still take a "back in the day a bit" Rufus + Bobby.
Or, hey, work out a reason to spin off Jody and Cas. Talk about odd couples.
WRT Bloodlines, I found myself not particularly excited by the prospect of a spinoff anyway but wanted to keep an open mind. I was breathtakingly underwhelmed. I don't know why they thought it had a chance - it didn't seem anyone's heart was in it (except maybe the new cast).
Too bad for Dabb.
Well, hopefully he can come back.
I've only had to write a couple extra John defenses. The post's not going badly, even if I feel compelled to defend shipping and fic (gen exists!) to all the detractors.
I have never been mainpaged and gotten this many comments. Although one complained about be talking about Wincest and emotional incest because those don't belong on IO9. Damn, there's a post about rape and dubcon in sci fi romance on the front page. They're pretty bad too.
300+ comments. I don't know how to bow out.
Just don't go back. They'll talk among themselves.
Compulsion! And insults to me!
I wonder if it's true that the network still wants an SPN spinoff: [link]
God, I miss my show.
I think what I miss most is back roads and flannel and ordinary people with ordinary ghosts. I'm so tired of seeing Sam and Dean in suits, and Cas's "command center" was just absurd. And I couldn't give a shit about Metatron if my life depended on it.
Not that I won't watch next week, but man, do I hope S10 is an improvement.
Gee, your show that you miss is my show that I miss. Where'd that show go?
I don't know.
And every time the Mark makes Dean growl, it's very watch-from-the-hall for me.
Swan Song was on the other day (TNT in the morning) and looking back, maybe it should have ended there. I liked a lot of seasons 6 and 7, and even a lot of 8, but overall, they don't add up to the same kind of story that seasons 1 through 5 did.
