Hey, guess what I just saw? (Granted, I missed the first half-hour, but STILL.)

First off, how sad is it that baby Isabelle was a better actress than grown Isabelle?

No, really. I mean, Megalyn's gorgeous, I'll give her that, but come on. And the thing is that I still like Isabelle and what she represents and the thought of what a possible hookup with Shawn could mean, but I can't STAND the actress. I don't get the bit where she's portraying Isabelle as having so little emotion. I know she was a baby, but ... the hell?! Even baby Isabelle was more emotional than that. If this were fanfic, I'd be calling a Mary Sue, although granted, that's more the character than Megalyn. (Note to self -- it's not spelled "Isabadactress.")

And yet, still shipping Shawn/Isabelle. I don't even get my brain.

On the other hand, I know Shawn was hot before, but daaaaaaamn. He just keeps getting yummier, honest to God. And good for him for turning in TJ Kim, but boy, is that going to bite him in the ass.

Kevin -- crazy, degenerating, CRAZY, lovable Kevin.

Aw, poor Maia. But yay for the fact that she apparently likes Marco, and the three of them play board games, and then she tries to make him feel better by saying Diana likes him better, and of course Diana likes him better than (I presume) Kevin, because Marco is FIVE KINDS OF AWESOME.

Matthew creeped me out last season, but this season he's practically walking slime. Although you'll forgive me if I got a guilty pick-me-up from him slapping Isabelle.

Alana continues to be gorgeous beyond comprehension. Especially when she's wearing red. PRETTY.

The Nova group storyline is ... eh, I don't know. I mean, I kind of like it, but at the same time, isn't two groups with ulterior motives enough? We don't know what the higher-ups in NTAC are planning half of the time, the 4400 Center siphoned enough info from tiny Isabelle (I'm guessing that's where Matthew got his info of what she's meant to do) where they could have tons of secrets and it wouldn't be a surprise, and don't even get me started on the Powers That Will Be. And now we have a terrorist group? Urgh.

Oh, Lily. I'd feel more depressed about her death, I suppose, if it didn't mean we don't have Supermom around anymore now. Oh, well. More Marco/Diana?

Also, that "Characters welcome" commercial with Monk and Shawn makes me a special kind of giggly. (Why can't more of my fandoms do crossover commercials?)

Anyway, I have to leave for the zoo at six in the morning and I haven't even had any sleep tonight. Damn it, and I wanted to write story notes for the nice long SPN fic I want to work on in the car. Now I'll probably just pass out as soon as my butt hits the passenger seat. *sigh*

Did you see the blog entry on why they killed off Lily?

Stupid ACTORS and their stupid LEAVING OF SHOWS. I was looking forward to seeing how Lily would develop as a character when she COULDN'T be Supermom anymore. Alas.

Re: Megalyn. OMG she really can't act at all, can she? I was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt after MonsterTruck. (I was so blinded by Jensen's fucking amazing back and gorgeous grin that I forgot how to emote properly!) But she barely managed vaguely bored when she should have been reflecting any number of dramatic emotions. The decision about Lily could have been heartbreaking (Richard, I love you THIS MUCH), but she just flattened out the whole scene so much I was just blinking at the screen.

As for Shawn, MMHMMM, the fact that Megalyn is apparently the only half black actress these Vancouver shows can find have aided us in providing a metaphorical Shawn/Robot/Dean sandwich, to which I say AMEN.

I'm curious as to how the Matthew, Nova Group and Jordan storylines will eventually coalesce, and exactly how big a hole Shawn just dug for himself.

And eee! Diana/Marco. They're just too adorable.

Shawn/Robot/Dean sandwich

*brain breaks*

[rosekay.livejournal.com]

Ok, bunny here. Faith AU in an SPN world where The 4400 exist (and Cassie, I guess, doesn't). Sam does a little research and decides to petition for Dean at the Center, because hello, magic healing hands. Of course, the board of experts looks a little askance at the complete lack of credit history and curious non-lack of a criminal record/legally dead status, so SamnDean head to Seattle to beg their case in person. I have no idea where the rest of this going besides GIANT ORGY OF HOTNESS.

That is all.

[budclare.livejournal.com]

OMG they have to break into the center in the middle of the night ('cause I could watch those boys break into places in the middle of the night for the rest of eternity and not get tired) and they find Shawn's apartment and THEN THE ORGY ENSUES.

*dies from the mental porn*

[budclare.livejournal.com]

Wait, the needing-healing thing interfers with the breaking into a high security thingy, doesn't it? *cries*

[rosekay.livejournal.com]

Ok, when I said "that is all?" I lied, because YESYES a thousand times yes to the breaking in. And Dean is super cranky that Sam almost doesn't let him come because of the condition, but they go higher tech than normal and slip in somehow. Shawn is about to turn them in, but psychic!Sam, I don't know, bends a spoon or something, and Shawn is like, "wait, are you 4400?"

Awkward pause. Sam and Dean look at each other. Dean shuffles and looks tragically ill and starts to deny it, but then Sam slaps a hand over his mouth is like, "YES YES WE ARE 4400. We are like your BROTHERS OR SOMETHING SHAWN. Save Dean or I'll kill you with my brain."

Then ORGY and emo!betrayed!Shawn when he learns the truth, but the demon is somehow involved in the whole burgeoning catastrophe (a year of burning mothers according to John, right?) and Matthew is slimey and intrusive about Sam's non-4400 abilities. NTAC tries to pin Dean's ass down for St. Louis, but now they're a little more open to the supernatural explanation, aren't they? And omg, can you imagine the too adorable for words Dean/Maia scene where all our ovaries explode and she gives him some cryptic Daddy-related news? EEE!

Ok, why is it 3:30 am, and why am I on CRACK?

[xianghua.livejournal.com]

I don't know, but I'll keep mailing these lime green plaid Peeps left over from Easter of '01 to your muse if you'll write it.

[budclare.livejournal.com]

Okay, new plan. John's in a coma post-finale, and THAT'S why they're trying to get Shawn's help. Both Dean and Sam are perfectly healthy and frisky and totally up to the breaking in and stuff. And by stuff, I mean porn, obviously.

[rosekay.livejournal.com]

Of course, porn, what else? :P

But this bunny too! This too! And he, uh, saves the Impala...somehow. shut up he does lalalala I can't hear you.

[budclare.livejournal.com]

That's silly. Shawn can't fix cars.

Clearly there's another 4400 who has that power, who is hot and will demand lots of sex in exchange for fixing the Impala. :P

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

It's not fair. I'm a crappy actress. Why can't I make out with Jensen Ackles?

ABOUT TIME! Yay!

[paradisacorbasi.livejournal.com]

I think Megalyn is trying to play Big!Isabelle as clueless and confused, so much so that she negates all the other emotions Isabelle could be feeling. Not the best approach, but maybe she'll improve over time.

All the Monk commercials are great. Have you seen the one with the guy from Psych? Brilliant.

I know it's gonna come bite Shawn in the ass to have turned in TJ, but honestly, the Nova Group is bloody stupid. They used her in a very public fashion to try to kill Ryland. If Shawn didn't turn her in, either she'd have gone on to do more/worse, or the NTAC would eventually have found her -- and they are still mad/nettled/pissed/hurt/vengeful from her shutting down the whole center on Collier's birthday.

I can't wait to see her face when Collier shows up alive to the world.

As for Lily - I hated Lily. She was whiny and annoying in my opinion. So it's not a sadness to me at all that she's dead. Not one bit.

[the-jackalope.livejournal.com]

See, I'm sad about Lily going, but mostly because Richard's face at the end really killed me dead. Why oh why couldn't they have gotten an actress who has half the acting ability of Mahershalalhashbaz Ali to play Isabelle.

Also the crossover commercials are just all kinds of awesome. I kinda want to see a Dead Zone one with Maya and Johny, but that's just me.

I totally dug the premier and am egearly awaiting this sunday's episode. It was an interesting twist, another one, to an already interesting plot line. This will be a great show and probably gain ever growing popularity. And yay for Marco/Diana. They're cute and so is Maia.
