Supernatural 3: Family don't end with blood
[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.
No lie, I just sobbed through the end. Jensen Ackles, man.
I need a rewatch. I was so non-emotional about it in case I hated it I don't think I reacted at all.
Dean's prayer seemed too much like his previous scenes in Home ("Dad, if you could get here--there's something in our old house") and praying to Cas "I'm begging you, man," to really touch me.
Yeah, I probably need to watch it again, now that I know it doesn't totally suck.
We had Missouri back! And then we didn't. :-(
Still, it's pretty cool that Loretta Devine agreed to come back after all these years. She's so magnificent.
Next up: one of the brothers' second grade teachers makes an appearance only to be suddenly killed!
We had Missouri back! And then we didn't. :-(
t hasn't watched SPN in ages THEY KILLED MISSOURI?! No. Not okay. I always wanted her to have her own show.
No, no, this is the CW, don't forget, the shrine of the young, shallow, and beautiful. They fridged Missouri so her grandaughter would be motivated to join a cadre of young, beautiful girl hunters, shepherded by the aged and haggish Sheriffs Donna Branscomb and Jody Mills. So, you know, we can hold our breath when the girls are in peril, the way we can't do when it's a 40-50-60 year old woman competently dealing with peril.
What's sad is I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. I'm going with not, because that makes a horrible sort of sense.
A little over-the-top sarcastic (and bitter! don't forget bitter) about what I actually do think is the truth about the CW. I think Kim Rhodes, in her 40s with a young daughter, and Briana Buckmaster, 30s, with a toddler daughter, are beautiful, talented, and interesting actors, whose characters are appealing and could easily be written more attractive and intriguing. But the actors and their characters are sidelined in favor of some vapid female twinks whose careers will probably have evaporated long before they reach 30. But, bouncy boobs, killer white smile, glossy hair...enough to hang a series on, right?
I don't know why I continue to hope for a wider perspective from tv in an increasingly disposable society.
I'm sorry. There were things I did like about the episode. I just lost my own perspective there for a minute.
In case you weren't aware, the CW is launching Wayward Daughters next season, or later this season, featuring young female hunters, "mothered" by Jody Mills and Donna Branscum. So this episode was beginning the setup for that.

You have not (yet!) been subjected to my rant-with-hand-gestures about the very last two episodes of Penny Dreadful. I get the bitter.
