Well, the physical and the emotional gore. It's pretty damned rough, but I think it's necessary for what follows.

Going through episode by episode, there were so many scenes that I wanted to lift, because of both the overarching series mythology and the season arc, or because of a brother bonding moment, or an element of backstory, or a funny moment, or a bit of clever dialog, or because of some geeky techical or digital wizardry. There were several eps I think are ultimately disposable, but they have a toad scene, or a panic attack, or a cougar scene--which bothered a lot of people, but I found uncomfortably funny, because of the actors involved. If I could cherry-pick scenes from S3 and stitch them together in a narrative whole, excluding some of the rage-making stuff, it might make me happy. But I realize, going through the list, that there's more there to like than I remembered. It's just some scenes that I hated. But I hated them a lot and they colored how I felt about the ep, which bled into my memories of the season.

3.13: Ghostfacers - lots of people hate this one. I find it refreshing and lots of fun, knowing how much the actors enjoyed doing it.

I loved this one, I must confess.

I guess I'm easy? There's not one episode I hate. There are a few that bore me now, like Bugs, but even that I'd watch before almost anything else going.

And Show has never pushed my buttons the way it has with others, so. I can see the issues most of the time, I just don't really feel them.

I'm re-recording season one but so far I've deleted every episode without watching except Home.

I guess hate is too strong a word for what I feel for S3 really. I was more bored by it than anything. I would watch the episodes and be glad that I had seen the Winchesters but nothing blew me away like it had in the previous two seasons. Then S4 started off so awesome that I realized it wasn't just me getting tired of the show. It could be that awesome again. And it has been for me ever since.

Rewatching the early seasons is a treat if for nothing else seeing how much the boys have grown both physically and as actors. Also early seasons have JDM, which, yeah. ::sigh::

I ran across this vid last night. [link]

I love that the Impala is Christopher Robin.

MM is the only one I pretend doesn't exist.

That's a lot of why I'm here. I don't think it's nearly the roughest they've been, either gore or emotionwise.

Mention of Ghostfacers made me go check the webisodes.

Ah, Showlet.

I'm not familiar with the theme music used for that vidlet, but the choices of clips for Dean are quite kidshow adorable.

Which reminds me--Calli, if you cherry pick S3, don't listen to Beverly about The Kids Are Alright! There is cuteness there.

I have to say the YED as Piglet was a little distressing. Piglet isn't evil! They could have used Ash. Or Andy! Oh, Andy would have been perfect.

OK, "Monster Movie" was just fun. And the love interest survived! Plus JA in lederhosen. What's not to love?
