Let's take it back to the start

On Monday TNT started showing Supernatural from the beginning. I watched the Pilot, Wendigo, Dead in the Water, Phantom Traveler and Bloody Mary.

There was baby!Sam with his emo bangs and his hoodie. There was Dean with his cocky swagger, his amulet and his leather jacket.

There was the "Bitch." "Jerk." and the "Shotgun shuts his cake hole".

There was the caring and concern for one another.

There was why I fell in love with these characters, these boys, from Day One. And that is why I can no longer watch the show. Because all of that? It's been gone for a long, long time. This season has effectively destroyed any love I had left. Yes, characters need to change and grow over the years. But when you have one of them state that they're no longer brothers, the fundamental CORE of the show, why would I want to keep watching?

How far this show has fallen, just like the angels. :-(

Let the good times roll!

Kudos to Scott Bakula (and Lucas Black) for a great first episode of the proposed NCIS New Orleans spin off!

I really enjoyed it. Thought Scott did a wonderful job (and that his accent wasn't over the top) and I'm glad he was basically in the entire thing. I like Lucas Black as well and think they make a good team. The female agent from Chicago wasn't too bad but I need to warm up to her. Liked CCH Pounder as the coroner but she didn't have a lot to do.

Since I've been to New Orleans I kept going "Oh! Oh!" and pointing at the screen at the places I recognized. :-) I think having it set there is a fantastic idea since it's not New York or California.

The only thing I wasn't fond of? Scott's character's nickname - King. It just sounds retarded and I didn't even understand LaSalle's explanation as to how he got it. And it just makes me think of Elvis.

Now I haven't watched the original NCIS in like, 7 years, so who the hell is that freaking annoying blonde woman on the team?? Talk about a freaking Mary Sue! OMG, I couldn't stand her!

I read a few favorable reviews this morning on some entertainment websites, which is good. I'll be looking at the ratings later today as well to see how it did.

Looking forward to the second part next week!

Details about the ‘Supernatural: Bloodlines’ shoot in Chicago this week

http://www.onlocationvacations.com/2014/03/25/details-about-the-supernatural-bloodlines-shoot-in-chicago-this-week/

After spending Monday shooting in Vancouver, the Winchester brothers, aka Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, will spend the next three days filming Supernatural: Bloodlines in Chicago.

Bloodlines, formerly Supernatural: Tribes, is a potential new series that will be introduced in the 20th episode of Supernatural this season.

Most of the pilot episode was shot in Vancouver but the show will shoot some exterior shots in Chicago, where it will be set, on Mar. 25 – 27.

According to a recent casting call, Jared and Jensen will both be in town for the shoot.

We’ve also received Chicago Filming Permits under the name Hunters, LLC which we believe is Bloodlines. The permit shows filming will take place at 151 E Wacker Dr in Chicago on Wednesday, Mar. 26.

LOVE the name they took the permits out in! They were also filming here at the Loyola University campus yesterday. Wish I could get away from work to go find them, but with the way things are at the office it wouldn't be a good idea to take a day off. :-(

I liked Jared's tweet yesterday saying he was glad to be here in Chicago, that it's been six years since they've filmed anything in the U.S.
