I keep meaning to quit SPN, but I can't quite ever cut the cord. Though I admit the majority of the draw these days is a train-wreck fascination with just how bad it's going to get, and how often it exceeds my expectations of terribleness. I spend most of my time watching either yelling at the screen or laughing at inappropriate moments. And begging for more Crowley and Death...love those actors, and their chars are so entertaining...often in spite of the show. (I don't know if I've seen a badly done anthropomorphic Death, actually. Admittedly I'm weak to such things, but Death is one of those chars you just don't want to make a bad showing of...what would happen if the real deal disapproved? XD)
I was expecting something of Cthulhu-proportions, but you're right. The Oldest Monsters of All Time seem like your average demons. My hope is that the main "boss" they keep talking about will turn out to be something a bit more unique.
Yes! I wanted tentacles! And cults and prophecies and slow (or fast) descents into madness upon witnessing them! How can you screw up Lovecraftian horrors? Really now. Things that look like people killing people, been there, done that, in about HALF THE DANG SHOW. (and the other half is about things that don't look like people killing people...) I'm hoping they don't waste all the potential and do something with the Leviathans...
The sibs and I were theorizing that the "boss" might be Castiel (or Cas's body hosting him, anyway) - would love to see Misha Collins chewing up the scenery horrors-from-beyond style!
