And you're complaining about this in a thread about a show that portrayed him as a secret monster hunter.

More like pointing out a common misconception about a person who is famous for being something he actually wasn't.

In a thread about a show where he's intentionally being portrayed as something he actually wasn't.

Bit on bobby:

Thanks Keg. That answers that.

Fanboys are so cute.

Nobody believes in monsters, and nobody believes he was actually killing them.

Almost everyone believes he was a police officer because that's what their great teacher, television, has taught them.

My point has nothing to do with being a fanboy. I can understand bitching about the portrayal of ness in something like the TV and film versions of The Untouchables. Whereas complaining about historical innacuracy with a genre show just makes you look like a douche. Which would I guess be historically accurate. Either way, it doesn't really have a place in this thread.

Now back to relevant thingsYeah, it's not surprising, but he's gonna be missed.

This week's episode was actually pretty darn good.

Season one is on Netflix instant now.

That's messed up though. I already see vampire diaries and a whole bunch of new shows on netflix when this show has been out for years and they're just putting S1 up. That's bullsh*t.

It was a simple comment and your panties are all bunched. That's a fanboy reaction. Calm down.

I thought it made for some good symmetry with what Dean did to Jewel Staite's character. Although I don't think he was going to pull the trigger, and Sam saved his life. His daughter was totally playing him.

Completely agree. No man could kill his own daughter. What do you think Dean is thinking. Is he going to start trying to settle down now? I mean I feel like they keep hinting him down that path or something. Can't explain it.

I'm not sure where they're going with it. He's cracking, that's all I can tell so far. Everybody they've ever relied on is gone and the leviathans are propped up as maybe the worst thing they've faced, which is saying something. Not sure how they can end this season on a positive note (not that they ever end any season on a positive note).

This season has been enjoyable, but I keep wondering when they're going to get into the meat of the Leviathan story. There's usally a reference to them every episode, but by and large not much going on since Dick snuffed Bobby.

There's only been three episodes since Bobby died. I think the next couple are monster of the week, though. Evil clowns next week should be good. Castiel's back in a month, I think (ep 17? next friday is 15), and then he's in two more episodes. So that's probably tied to the leviathans.

I actually don't mind that we aren't seeing them, because the digital effects for them are pretty god-awful.

Good points, and as soon as I replied, I realized I wasn't thinking about the mid season break, heh.

And I do agree about the effects. Throw a couple more dollars into the F/X budget, for crying out loud. And isn't Acevedo from the Shield in another show right now? They may be having scheduling conflicts with some of the "name" Leviathans.

I've been waiting to watch this show, guess I'll at least check out the first season.

It's good stuff. Like most shows that survive this long, it drags in parts, and the sibling crap gets a bit pedantic from time to time, but overall it's been one of my favorite shows over the past number of years. Hopefully you enjoy it.

You'll jizz from how good it is.

Started watching this a month or two in recommendation from a friend. I'm just about done with season 3 now.


Anyway, I like both Sam and Dean. Think they have good chemistry together. It definitely made Tall Tales my fave episode so far. When they were telling the story about what happened from their own perspective and Dean made Sam out to be a big pussy. "You're just too precious for this world" LMAO

Yeah, you're in for a treat the more you watch. Good stuff to come. I would recommend you avoid this thread, however. Many spoilers to be had if you're not current with the show.

"We don't even have friends. All our friends are dead."

Never were truer words spoken.

Yeah, I saw that. I caught my first spoiler and stopped reading any further. Good stuff. I had originally thought I was midway through season 3, but I was actually at the end. Now I'm midway through season 4.

Suicide teddy was pretty hilar LMAO

Heh, that was a good episode. The writers on the show do a good job bringing in levity from time to time, because face it, this is some pretty dark subject matter they're dealing with.

Now hurry up and get your ass caught up to present, so the rest of us don't have to chat using spoilers. :)

As big of a "no shit" moment on that show as I can remember. Heh.

No, go ahead and chat about it in the open. I'm going to stay away from this thread until I finish. I'll probably be done in a couple weeks.

Have fun. Look forward to hearing your takes.

Bobby!!!

They've handled this completely telegraphed bobby thing really well. It fits in with something that's been part of the show since very early on, trying to work with monsters (always backfires). That last line, 'what're the odds that this ends well? what're the odds?" and the look bobby has afterwards was great stuff.

Just watched the latest ep. It had the feel of one of the first seasons to it. This season has been heavy with the throwback feel, to me, anyway. It's been enjoyable, but I wonder how much longer they can keep it going....

Almost done with season 6 now. Its obvious this show blew its load with Lucifer in season 5...

I didn't really care all that much for season 6. I think it has gotten better since, though.

Huh. Talk about fast forwarding the plot.

And I didn't see that end coming, even though I should have.

Something seemed off to me the whole episode.

BTW, it's been renewed for season 8.

Probably the fact it was Cas, but not Cas.

And that there was a heavy dose of the angel/demon/leviathan characters, where this season has been suprisingly light on all three.

On top of all that, the whole ep just had a "rushed" feel to it.

I think that was it. It felt rushed right from the get-go, like they were cramming a couple of episodes together.

Oh shit. Awesome ending.

meh, I was really disappointed with the episode. It seemed like they were building up to something bigger and better all season.

There was never solid follow through on the leviathan arc at any point during the season. It really never seemed to get off the ground as the central season arc, I didn't expect any more than what we got, and I was happy with it. They wrapped-up Bobby's story the way it needed to be done, Crowley got to be Crowley and stab everybody in the back, and Sam and Dean got split up again, like they do basically every finale.

Essentially they wiped season 7 and set up for season 8. Which makes since, because Sara Gamble stepped-down as show runner and Jeremy Carver is taking over. I think Carver's done a good job running the American version of Being Human with his wife so I feel pretty good about that. It's just a guess at this point, but I would expect season 8 to be more like it was under Kripke (he left after season 5).

And the awesome part I was referring to was only the bit about Dean being in Purgatory and then Cas just abandoning him as the monsters close in. LMAO

There isn't a Grimm thread, so I'm going to post about that here, too, since they were on at the same time. I really enjoyed that show by the end of the season. Looking forward to seeing where it goes. The twist at the end of the finale tonight should have been obvious, but I totally didn't see it coming.

Hopefully with Supernatural moving to Wednesdays (which I think is great, there hasn't been a show I watch on that night for a while now) some of the Supernatural audience can bleed over. I'd like to see Grimm stick around more than 2 years.

Sad thing is, I guess Friday night will kind of empty now with Supernatural moving and Fringe ending. Only Grimm.

Oh, and Community will be the lead-in for Grimm, since that's where NBC has put it to die.

Yeah, Cas going AWOL on Dean with the beastly things closing in was pretty crappy. I guess this means we haven't seen the last of Dick Roman?

Sam being TRULY by himself, if only for a bit, will be interesting. No Dean, Bobby, Cas, Meg....only Crowley making his life hell, and some lost Leviathans. Interested to see where it goes from here.

I kind of agree with AustinChief, though. It don't grad a hold of me for being a season finale, until the end. Safe to say I liked it more than AC.

I wasn't really a fan of the "let's put Dean in Purgatory" part... I mean we've already had Dean in hell, we've already had Sam in hell... could they not have thought of something else than "ooo, let's leave Dean in Purgatory!"

But the Cas abandoning him part--I wonder from what Cas said earlier about dying and being brought back as some sort of punishment, if maybe he's not the one who abandoned Dean...maybe he had no choice in the matter?

I am fine with Dean in Purgatory because we get to see him there.. He will have to go up against probably a lot of vanquished foes.. Sam will have to get the geeky kid, find Meg, new ally and deal with the remaining leviathans..

I liked the finale and also thought that the "see you next season" comment by the Alpha in the previous show was pretty funny (and telling).

Any chance that Bobby ended up in Purgatory, due to his vengeful spirit breakdown?

So I just started this show on netflix - never watched an episode - it's prettahhhh good. I'm only on S1E4 but I am enjoying it.

Curious to see what next season brings...

Huh. I figured a show like this would be right up your alley.

Hopefully you stick with it. It's still an enjoyable show now.

just watched the finale today.

i agree with most that this season was rather bland. could have been better. could have been much worse.
it did seem a bit compact. coulda been a little bit deeper imo. but that's why i'm a fan and not a writer or producer.
really excited for the next season. i believe mid october. i do want badass cas back though.

I liked the CGI used for Roman's death scene. Honestly I've never seen that type of effect used throughout the whole series and hopefully that is telling of how the new guy will try to take things in terms of special effects. Excited! FYI Dean is going to be saved by his daughter. Lulz.

By the sound of that trailer, it looks like they're gearing up for a series finale.

I agree but the whole "One year later" thing looks kind of cheap.

Again.

I'm actually disappointed they're apparently going back to the leviathan angle. I thought that was by far the weakest season arc, and now we get a 2nd year of it.

As far as series finale goes, they could easily spread that whole 'close the gates of hell' thing over a couple years.

X2 on the Leviathan story. It's a nice backdrop to come back to every now and again but enough is enough. Bring back supersize Cas and let's get some angel-devil-demon-prophet shit going.

I think the main problem with the leviathans was that they made them too powerful. The writers had to pull out too many convoluted plot devices to keep pulling Sam and Dean out of the leviathans' grasp (deus ex machina).

I did like how they were able to mix in a lot of "monster of the week" episodes, though.

I wonder if a series finale story arc could involve the Winchesters finding God (literally, not spiritually). The angels keep implying that God is missing.

Yeah, they have to find God at some point.

Watch it be Cas.

They did that 2 seasons ago. Cas became as powerful as God.

Yeah I remember when Cas took over for God but wasn't God. Maybe God will be a hot-ass demon chick?
That'd work.

I caught a re-run on TNT last week where the outcast angel Anna said that there were only four angels she knew of that have actually seen God. It was just speculation on my part, but if they are going to wrap the show, finding God has to be the end game, you would think. Just don't let it turn into a Contact type moment where they find God, and he turns out to be Jeffery Dean Morgan.

And I agree about the Leviathan storyline. Least interesting baddies yet. But, Castiel pretty much wiped the angels off this plane of existence, and Crowley has his minions laying low. We'll see how it goes. (And wasn't it implied by Crowley after Dick was killed that the Leviathans would still be around, but nowhere as powerful? I can't quite recall....)

Yes. Cut off the head and the body won't know what to do. Kind of a half-ass solution it seemed to me.

Um, guys... they already showed who God was a long time ago...

Ah, man. Is Dean going to be the "soulless" one this year? Or is there some big bad baddie inside of him, waiting to destroy all that is?

Just a friendly reminder, show's moved to Wednesday, premiere is tonight.

Thank you sir, did not know that. Thankfully the DVR does.

:eek:

:toast:

Thoughts on the premiere anyone? Kind of weak in my opinion. They really need to think about wrapping the series up.

I thought it was pretty good. There's an undercurrent with Dean like something's wrong, but they left it vague. I'm wondering if he did something to Cas to get himself and the other dude out. The dog and doc thing was a little weird, but I'm hoping that gets explained a bit more.

My wife said the same thing about Cas & Dean getting out.

Well honestly Cas abandoned him as he was being surrounded. Wasn't even funny.

so, here's my q.



i know it'll be explained later on, but in my opinion, we haven't seen the last of castiel.

A. You spelled spoiler incorrectly at the end.
B. You need the "/" tag on the one at the end. Like this "/spoiler"

:thumb:

And to answer, I thought it was a vamp.

oh my gawd. i'm so stooopid!

spell check much?

thats kinda what i was thinking myself.

i kinda got the goosebumps when
