Lots and lots of SPN things!

Boy, I’m away from the computer for a day and a half and look what happens. :-)

First, there’s an interview with the author of the upcoming SPN tie-in book, Nevermore.

Then there’s a pic of the boys from episode 19.

And THEN there’s this freaking hysterical vid of the bloopers of Jensen and Jared doing their voice over thingys for the Channel Ten commericals.  I love them to pieces!!

And last, but certainly not least, sen1995, dairwendan and tecetyeintyale– you guys ROCK.  The great discussion you guys have going is too cool!  It would take me pages of my own comments to reply back to all of yours, so let me sum up instead:

Ok, let’s start with Wendigo – heck, I didn’t have a problem with it, either. Loved the peanut M&M’s and Dean’s line about not wearing shorts. :-)  But just in general, the brother moments were great, which makes it a winner in my book.

As for Jess and Ava and Madison and Sarah – I find myself in the Sarah camp (sorry, Deborah!) Not that I have anything against Jess, but of the four women, we got to know her the least – just a few scenes, whereas the other ladies had an entire episode. So there’s just more of everyone else to form an opinion on, IMO.  I didn’t have a problem with any of these gals, but of them I thought Sam and Sarah just fit together better. But honestly? I don’t want to see Sam with anyone but Dean. And yes, you can take that in a gen or wincest way. ;-)

Let’s move on to Bugs – while the actual “bug” aspect of the episode was totally stupid, we get some GREAT brother moments in this, and more insight into Sam, Dean and John’s relationship. I always wonder why people are so quick to dismiss this episode – why they only remember the bugs and not all the family stuff. And really, how could I not like an episode where everyone mistakes Sam and Dean for a gay couple. [snerk]

Route 666 – certainly my least favorite of season 1. Only watched it a couple times. But dairwendan, you summed up the ONLY reasons why I’ve watched it more than once.

Season 1 vs. Season 2 – yes, S2 has definitely moved me more than S1, as it should, really. In S1 you establish who the characters are, etc. and what motivates them, and in S2 you should start delving much more deeply into that, which S2 has.  But sometimes S2 episodes are just painful to watch – in an emotional way, not plot wise. There is SO much angst in S2 I find it sometimes difficult to go back and rewatch them as many times as I have S1 episodes. Anyone agree with that?

And yes, I hated John until the last two episodes of S1 He’ll still never win Father of the Year from me, but now that he’s gone I do miss him, I hate the fact that the boys are now orphans, you know? And he gave his life to save one of his sons. That earns a gold star in my book.

Many thanks to those of you guys who commented with what you'd like to see happen in the remaining episodes of season 2 - I think some of them have a really good chance of happening!

Geez - only FIVE episodes left?? Where did the season go??

the end especially annoys me, where it’s suddenly morning in less than 10 minutes

I just want to slip in here and say something. It seems like a LOT of the fandom is under the impression that we're supposed to think that they're in that attic overnight and that the sun coming out is dawn. I always thought it was an eclipse.

Go back and listen to what the Native American man says "On a night when the Sun and the Mooon share the sky as equals". That's just an eclipse, right? Where do you get that it's all night?

I would've thought that might be true, but didn't Dean specifically make mention of it being midnight?

You're gonna go make me watch this after work tomorrow, aren't you? :-)

I thought he was referring to the spring equinox. Two times a year, in the spring and the fall, night and day are almost the same length, i.e., there is 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness. If I recall my science class correctly, this occurs when the sun crosses the equator or some such thing. There is a spring equinox in March and an autumnal equinox in September. That's what I thought he was referring to.

And I do think they were in the attic all night - or at least from midnight til dawn. I think some time would have passed while they fought the bugs, but once they broke through the roof I think they just huddled together and waited it out.

I need to watch that episode again also!

[snaps fingers] That's the other thing I forgot to mention in my previous post about this. That was the first thing that came to my mind, too, when the Native American man said that line about the moon and the sun.

I think they just huddled together and waited it out.

Yeah, waited out the ten minutes before the sun miraculously rose. :-)

Well obviously I'm going to have to watch it again myself! Is it possible I've just been too involved in trying to see if I can tell when Jared gets stung on the ass????

The reason NONE of us can remember exactly what was said was either because of that or when Jared gets slapped in the ass by Jensen! LOL! Ah, we're so shallow. :-)
