Throwing a weapon to someone who can catch it can be a good move
Too many variables in the catching, I think.
However, if you're trained, a shuriken or throwing knife at a foe is a reasonable option.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

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

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Throwing a weapon to try to impale your opponent is a good way to lose a weapon.
If this is the most SPN asks of my suspended disbelief in an ep? I am okay with that. It looks damn good and I don't really care if it took the actual boys dozens of takes to get the shot. *My* boys, Sam and Dean? They are competent and damn sexy doing it.

Especially without the bungee.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
No bungee!
Actually, Fritz has gone a long way towards redeeming Hookman for me. I think my main issues with it have always been that it was filmed third, directly after Wendigo, but not shown till much later in the season. And by DitW, the relationship had already changed. You get Phantom Traveler, Bloody Mary and Skin, and all the backstory and character building in those four eps, it's hard to go back to the way they were third episode in. Is this making any sense? I didn't know the eps were shown out of order the first two times I saw S1, but I felt something was really off about Hookman--it just seemed more rough and scraped together than the eps just before.
Now I know that was partly--probably greatly--Kim Manners' influence. But I've never liked Hookman. It never felt like it fit right.
Fritz sort of redeemed it for me, with his scoffing and his eyerolling and his accent.

I like Hookman where it is better, just because even though Sam didn't kiss the chick for long, three eps in is too soon after Jessica for that much snoggage.

Yeah, that's why they delayed it, I think.

Did Jeremy Carver leave Supernatural before being hired for SyFy's remake of Being Human? Or was he hired off the show?

He's still been writing this season. It's possible he's been hired off the show, in which case, BOO, POACHERS!
He could do both! Maybe he'll do both?

Because books.
I want him to do both! He's excellent!
