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.
Last but not least, how pissed were those two actresses who read for the parts of "girl making out with Dean Winchester in the mop closet" [...] only to find out it was...the OTHER Dean Winchester? HAHAHAHA OH BUMMER.
Oh, I didn't think about that. That's just cruel. Those poor girls. Hopefully the sides didn't say Dean.
Also, hopefully this satisfied those that were wanting more Sam. They certainly got their Sam heavy episode. Which was enjoyable because Colin Ford is just so darn good. Jared really sold the ending too. He was so trying to believe what he was saying.
I got to the point where I saw Brock Kelly as a young Dean. Even his outbursts really were in character because current Dean is regularly SO inappropriate.
I have slept on it, and I still have issues with Dean's age.
I think I'm just gonna have to handwave it, though.
oh, show! I did love the young Sam - he was good and could actually have passed for a young JP (he has the jaw for it). And that fight scene ... obviously, he'd had some training from John. And the other kid was just big and strong enough to push the other kids around, without much real fighting.
Eh, in 1997 he'd have been 18 going on 19, but he quite probably didn't start kindergarden on time (less than a year after Mary's death) or managed to miss enough school in the between times to be held back a year.
My dim recollection is that it was not all that uncommon to see 18+ seniors at the start of the year.
Also, possibly high school was a good place to stash Dean to keep him out of ... well, out of as much trouble as possible. Just think of the trouble he could get into hanging around the motel, HBO, magic fingers, and all!
But Amanda's take-down of Dean in the hallway was just a little anvilicious and unlikely.
And yet, I still found it kind of awesome.
I'm with Plei on this one. Even though I don't buy a high school girl being that self aware and perceptive in the circumstances, it was awesome enough to overcome that, and it wouldn't be SHOW without at least a couple of anvils.
I think my biggest criticism of the way a scene was played was the bus. None of those kids, or the coach, decided to get off and see what the hell was happening? None of them even crowded to one side to look out the windows? No shouting? That seemed pretty unlikely to me on rewatch.
Otherwise, I am in love with the way-to-perfect Mr. Wyatt. And want to hug both Dean and Sam, as per usual.
Well, with Amanda they kind of foreshadowed her lack of ease about Dean's situation in the scene where he's talking about living in the motel without his dad. So, clearly this was something that she'd been chewing on for a while.
I really liked that scene in the closet. It was not what I was expecting.

Yeah, I was thinking about that this morning. There should have been a mob of kids yelling and getting into the mix, and freaking out at the GUNSHOTS.
We can assume those were salt rounds, right? How did the Winchesters leave the scene? Wouldn't they have been reported to the cops by the kids? That whole thing seemed really kind of messy to me, even more so than usual, because of the number of witnesses.
I'm also left a little uncomfortable about wassername, Amanda? She killed someone and it wasn't her fault and she's left in an insane asylum and it seems even more unfair than usual.
