SPN mini-commentary

[xparrot]

Regarding SPN 5x12 and 5x13:

5x12: a criminal waste of a good body swap. Phooey.

5x13: DANGIT SHOW, why'd you have to go and do that? I liked Anna, quite a lot - rebellious angels of all stripes are a major draw for me. Having her go evil (and stupidly evil no less - she actually achieved her objective, she killed Sam, and then rather than go and immediately scatter his atoms across the cosmos - back in time, no less, it probably would've taken some effort to straighten that out - she continued to go for the brutal murder. ARGH.) and then get killed is just annoying.

I also believe this means that every single female character who appeared in more than two episodes is now dead. Seriously, show, the hell? Even Castiel h/c can't make up for that.

(not to say that I didn't enjoy those bits. But I would've enjoyed them a lot more in a different context.)



Also finished s4 Buffy/s1 Angel. Yay friendship! Yay h/c! Yay Spike in tweed on a swingset! (Joss Whedon is a Twin Peaks/David Lynch fan, y/y?)

*thinks* I don't know. Aren't Jo and Ellen still alive?... then again, I still have season 4 that I got on DVD for Christmas to get around to watching, let alone season 5. So I have honestly no clue. But I think they're still alive...... by virtue of not being in any more episodes. Which.... okay, isn't any better. :\

(truthfully, SPN kinda died for me at the end of season 2 when they torched the Roadhouse and Ash apparently died in a fire. I still watch it on DVD but my interest is very mild)

***SPOILER SPOILER***




...No, Jo & Ellen were killed off a few eps ago. After being brought back a few eps before that. Apparently just so they could be killed.

ARGH!

Seriously?!? Wow - I'm glad I gave up SPN a while back. :(

Fffft. Wow. That is just.... No words. Really. Then again, they kinda have a tendancy to knock off pretty much all of the interesting side characters (I'm still miffed about Hendricksen too) but the ladies have it extra lousy.

Hendricksen, ARGHHH. Being a black man on SPN is about as bad as being a woman - I have no idea what their issues are, but they have BIG ones >.>

At this point at least half the reason I watch is just to see what stupid thing they're doing this time, I admit...

Nope, Jo and Ellen both died in an earlier fifth season ep...so...

Oh show *shakes head* There have been some fun things in the later seasons (Castiel!) but for the most part, I agree, season 1 and 2 were the best...
