fannishliss: old motel sign says motel beer eat (Default)

Kalliel brings up a great point in her meta: that Supernatural has been destabilizing the human/monster binary since day one.
This is so true!  I'm not sure I can add to her essay, but I guess I'd like to try to get my own heart out there as well.

No spoilers beyond 10.02 please!

I don't remember episodes very well just from their titles, but that is what superwiki is for.
Here are my reactions off the top of my head.  I hope you guys aren't shocked by my lack of love for some things!  s1 is not my favorite season, but there are still plenty of fantastic moments.

:)    •    1.01 Pilot -- of course my favorite part is when Sam says you can do it alone, but Dean says, I don't want to
o_o   •    1.02 Wendigo -- this was the only ep of s1 I saw when it aired, and I hated it!  Sam seemed like a whiner, and the two brothers seem so mismatched, and the whole thing seemed like a ripoff of the x Files.  I did not realize at that time that several SPN directors had actually worked for X Files, which prior to Supernatural was the show that seemingly spawned from inside my own head.  I did not pick up SPN when it aired.  Sorry, super slow yet supposedly fast Wendigo!!
:D   •    1.03 Dead in the Water.  Love this ep.  Love Andrea Barr.  Love Dean connecting with the little boy. Still think Sam is annoying.
:D    •    1.04 Phantom Traveler -- love scared Dean on the plane, love the pretexting and the Metallica.  Great ep.
o_o    •    1.05 Bloody Mary-- not so much.
:D    •    1.06 Skin -- Like it.  Like meeting Sam's friends and hearing the secret underbelly of Dean's resentments from the shifter.  Dean was never the "good soldier" like Sam thought.
o_o    •    1.07 Hook Man -- also not so much.
:)    •    1.08 Bugs -- I like parts of this very well, but not the denouement.
:D    •    1.09 Home -- very nice.  Still baffled why we never meet Missouri again??
:D    •    1.10 Asylum -- awesome.  Love rage ghosts.  Love Kat.  Feel very sorry for Dean when Sam shoots him, but I do understand Sam as well.
:D    •    1.11 Scarecrow -- like this one very well.  Like that Sam comes back to save Dean.
 :D :D   •    1.12 Faith -- Yes of course.  Layla is one of those amazing characters that we remember forever, so much more than "woman of the week."   I love how we get the first glimpse of Sam being completely unable to accept anything less than saving Dean.  And reapers, and Dean in the hoodie of whumpage.  a rightful classic
:)    •    1.13 Route 666 -- I like Cassie!  I like that she is the kind of girl Dean would go for if he could.
o_o    •    1.14 Nightmare --  I have rewatched this very few times. But Sam has powers, which is pretty cool!
:D    •    1.15 The Benders -- I like this because of the lady cop, she is a great character and is one of those women Dean very much respects... cannibal hicks not my favorite trope, but creepily well executed.  And Dean saves Sammy from a cage, which is always a bonus.
 :D    •    1.16 Shadow -- a great one.    This is when Dean breaks my heart begging to be a family again.  Oh Dean!!
 :D   •    1.17 Hell House -- I think it's fun to point out that the Ghostfacers have been around since SEASON ONE.  They are not some kind of brainfart on the part of the writers, or anything like that. They were always part of the show from the beginning, as a balancing meta for the boys.  I love the tulpa and that whole concept.
 :D   •    1.18 Something Wicked, oh man, this is a harsh one, with Dean being left alone to take care of Sammy and blaming himself about the striga, but it has to be considered a seminal ep in understanding what made Dean who he is today.  So let the big happy face at the beginning reflect that this ep is actually a big sad face, but I love it because it makes me care.
:D    •    1.19 Provenance.  Love it.  So sad that Sarah has now finally been killed off. Shipped Sarah and Sam for so long.
:)    •    1.20 Dead Man's Blood, yes, love the way vampires are portrayed on SPN.
o_o    •    1.21 Salvation & 1.22 Devil's Trap -- two of the big canonical eps that don't move me that much.  I'm sorry for John being possessed, idk why, but the first ep of s2 means a lot more to me personally.

First of all HOW AWESOME IS IT THAT I JUST TYPED SPN 9.1. HOLY CRAP THE LITTLE SHOW THAT CAN!!!!  \o/

And also, YAY ALL THE LJ ACTIVITY!!!  :D :D :D  Whew, I am relieved about the Red Scare that isn't. Big sigh of relief.

Second of all, my s8 DVDs came and I just barely had time to watch a few before s9.  I concentrated on the Men of Letters and Trials eps.  My top ep of the year for s8 was, of course, Ben Edlund's excellent Nazi Necromancer ep, Everyone Hates Hitler.  I am SO glad Edlund got to write Evil Undead Nazi Necromancers and the Golem before leaving.  I also loved Henry Winchester in As Time Goes By.  The more I watch him, the more I love his characterization.   I just adore the part where he reads John's journal and understands that his Legacy didn't die in John or in the Boys.  Having just watched Sam rescue Bobby from Hell, there sure are a lot of mixed messages regarding whether or not Sam is meant to keep his promise to rescue people from the afterlife, or not keep it.

spn ficlet for s6: "Bare"


Dean is a year out of practice.  One year of the Impala under a tarp, one year's worth of old books with no new answers, one year's worth of hidden bottles drained faster than Lisa could find them, one year of Dean's guilty grimace and Lisa's patient understanding.   All Dean can think about is Sam, in the Pit, the way time stretches out eternally there, Sam's never-ceasing torment that Dean can practically feel.  Books and liquor and days crawl by glacier slow, till a whole year has passed and Sam is back.

He's freaking huge. Dean was used to Sam's extra four inches in height, but the size of Sam now makes Dean feel small.    The look in Sam's eyes makes Dean feel small, the little smirk around Sam's perfect lips, the assessing gaze in his dark eyes.

SPN Ficlet for S3: Resolute

Sam thought he'd dedicated himself one hundred percent to saving Dean from the deal.

He was wrong, and it took the Trickster to show him that.

It was only after Dean died again, and again, and again, and then one last time to really drive it home, that Sam became one hundred percent devoted to saving his brother.

There was nothing he'd let stand in his way: not normalcy, not his own pain, not even Bobby.  Sam found himself eager to sacrifice whatever was necessary to save his brother, willingly and wholeheartedly.

When Groves shot Dean in the cell, Sam felt himself rising up, squaring his shoulders out of their non-threatening hunch, becoming a mountain of man between his brother and anything that would dare to threaten him.  He let the exorcism pour out of him like water.  He was ready to do anything to keep Dean safe -- even if it meant he needed to assault the station's sweet young secretary, terrify her and steal from her.

He would do anything.  He understood now what that was like.

But still, he wasn't just like Dean.  The knowledge of how far he would go didn't scare him at all.
