Finally watched Lebanon.

That was very nice.
I'm kind of in denial about that actually ending thing, I think.

[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.

Castiel has had it. An adventure in GIFs: [link]
I'm choosing not to think about Mary right now.
Instead, I'll say that I just realized the kid in the cold open of Smile Time was the original young Dean! Neat.
Colin Ford was in Captain Marvel--as Carol's brother Steve. I can't remember if it was one of the photos or a memory blip, but I did recognize him at the time, just not put a name to the face.
He looks about as much like Sam now as adult Ridge looks like Dean.
Tonight was the season finale, apparently. We only get 20 episodes now?
All I'll say is ... that went in a completely unexpected direction.
Contract negotiation for this season so the Js got more hiatus time. I'm guessing S15 will be the same. Also, Jensen's directing again in 15.
I've...got nothing to say about the finale, except I never realized what a subtle actor Benedict can be.
It was great to see Rob Benedict, although it was jarring to be furious with him.
I'm just hoping this means the last season will really bring old-school monsters and some, like, FUN.
I think I'm gonna do the thing, guys. I think I'm coming home to Supernatural for the last season. I've watched so many vids and read so many summaries that I think I can do it.
I can catch you up!
Speaking of fic, I had the strongest need to reread old favorite fic the other night. Some of them are just sort of delightful now -- when S3 and Dean's deal was a huge thing, for instance. Good times.
I've reached a sort of zen state where I'm not watching from the hall, necessarily, but I'm just a notch off emotionally engaged.
Could be a general pulling back from emotional engagement, I've been neutral on scripted shows for a while (go gardening and home improvement shows!). I've even backed off of nature shows because they all end in "But the ruby breasted howler kangaroos are losing ice fields by the day..." doomsaying.
So my disengagement with SPN kind of goes along with that. I still enjoy and applaud good performances. I still mock canon flouting. I enjoy, but from a little distance. If I were re-engaging after a period of abstinence, I think a little distance might be good.
