How much do I love my shows?

[apocalypsos]

Like CANDY, I swear.

Holy Christmas, was that the best episode yet, or WHAT?! *flails*

-- Oh, wow, do I love Alexis! Poor wronged Alexis. The way she was totally playing Daniel to get him to say that he hated Alex or whatever, and the way he just ripped into her when he told her how much she hurt the rest of the family. Just ... YESYESYES. They are both so right and so wrong at the same time. They get it and yet they don't, you know?

-- "I love your assistant. I have the same one in beige." I missed the next minute or so of dialogue because I was too busy giggling hysterically. Marc and Beige!Marc should meet, perhaps on the boy cruise. *snickers*

-- My favorite Amanda is now and will always be Nervous Eater!Amanda, so watching her swill champagne the entire episode made me squee. And I adored her dress. Also, watching her and Marc conspire is a thing of sheer catty beauty.

-- Is it bad that I want Wilhelmina to fire Marc if only so that she can hire Jason Justin? "It's Justin, actually, but I don't care. I love you." Oh, Justin, I already wanted to adopt you for educating your entire family about Fashion Week, but for having the smarts to want to be Wilhelmina's flunkie, you are SO MY FAVORITE.

-- I squealed at the top of my lungs every time Tim Gunn appeared on screen. My poor neighbor. Hee!

-- Daniel and Hilda making out is just ... I would just like not to ever see that again, thanks. GYAH.

-- Hilda met Henry! And thinks he's a nice guy! And he got Betty a T-shirt that fits! Who do I have to pay for Betty and Henry to be squished together on a permanent basis, damn it?!

-- The Ignacio subplot with the case worker would be bugging me if it weren't for the fact that a.) Ignacio is awesome and b.) that confrontation with the ex-boyfriend had me on the floor. Ignacio seriously needs to stop letting Walter in, though. Yuck.

-- Bradford was arrested! Aw, man. I like Bradford, Fey-killer though he may be.

-- Am I really dorky if I started critiquing Christina's collection? (Which I liked, by the way. Particularly Alex's dress. ROWR.) Project Runway has broken me, or considering how I dressed in high school I suppose it fixed me. :)

-- Speaking of which, now I don't have to write the Project Runway crossover if the show already did it, right? *ducks rotten tomatoes* Yeah, yeah, I'll write it eventually.

*****

Oh, boys.

-- MAGIC FINGERS. That just never stops being funny, much like when Dean ribs Sam about porn. Also, "You're making me uncomfortable"? Why, Sammy, because that's supposed to be your job?

-- Just out of curiosity, was I the only one listening to the priest's description of avenging angels -- the feelings of terror and awe, fighting evil and destroying it -- and thinking of Mary in "Home"?

-- I love that Sam has faith and Dean doesn't, and WHY Sam has faith. Because he needs to, because he's got to think that there's something out there that can save him. Yes, he has faith in Dean, but Dean's just one guy, no matter how much Dean might want to save him. Aw, SAMMY. *hugs him*

-- Why does Dean of all people know the name of the star of Touched by an Angel? I mean, Roma Downey? Someone get that man on the World Series of Pop Culture, STAT.

-- I cried during that scene in the church when Dean was talking about Mary. Uh, for the record.

-- Aw, I kind of feel sorry for the poor dead priest. Because he thought he was an angel, man. You think you're doing God's will and really you're just turning people into murderers? That's gotta suck.

Although when he said that thing about redemption to Sam, I kind of wanted to punch him for making Sam feel bad. Then again, considering he hit Sammy where it count, I can imagine the hooker and the drunk felt the same way before he came to them, like they wanted to redeem themselves but thought they'd end in an awful place. Which sucks even worse than thinking you're an angel, because instead of saving them he sentenced them.

-- UNICORNS. RAINBOWS FLYING OUT OF THEIR ASSES. Kripke, I will give you a million dollars to have Dean and Sam actually find a unicorn by the end of the series. Come on.

-- They still haven't gotten rid of the Impala. Huh. Don't think it's that recognizable, boys?

I don't have a lot of coherent thoughts right now because I'm still too flaily, but Kripke, is there any chance you can give these poor guys ONE good thing this season? Just one. Not that I'm complaining since the last couple of episodes have been phenomenal, but exactly how deep are we going to dig the hole for our boys here?

*cuddles them*

EDIT: The Daily Show is referring to Jason Jones during his report as "J-squared". *dies*

ME TOO, and not afraid to admit it. *sniffles*

They still haven't gotten rid of the Impala. Huh. Don't think it's that recognizable, boys?

Yeah, I have a feeling they're not even going to bring up that logic hole, because the boys can't think about it and then choose not to ditch it, because they're not stupid. And at the same time they can't ditch it, because duh, it's Metallicar. So, yeah.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I don't know ... on one hand I want to get on the show's case for not getting rid of the Impala because that'd be the first thing anybody would think to get rid of in that situation, and yet at the same time, Dean and his pretty face are all over the news AND the FBI's Most Wanted list anyway. Basically, they're fucked if they do and fucked if they don't.

[trinity_clare]

...Yeah, I'm pretty much handwaving everything away. I'm glad they did mention some effect (Dean having to lie low), little as it was. I do hope they deal with everything sooner rather than later, though.

I AM COMPLETELY, IRRATIONALLY OKAY WITH THAT.

*cough* Sorry. You know how people sometimes post "unpopular fannish opinions"? I was kicking around the idea of posting my "completely irrational fannish opinion": I cannot deal with the boys not having the Impala. If it happens... I will CRY A LOT and then get the fuck over myself, but I have irrational angst about it.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I AM COMPLETELY, IRRATIONALLY OKAY WITH THAT.

I look at it this way -- losing the Impala isn't going to change the fact that they're both wanted by cops, FBI agents, hunters, the Demon, and what's starting to feel like every evil thing out there. Driving a beat-up Volvo isn't going to make their chances THAT much better.

[trinity_clare]

Oh, I am absolutely NOT OKAY with them ditching the Impala, it's just...I'm logical, I can't help it. I can handwave, though. trollprincess has a good point that their chances are bad regardless of the car.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

The poor darlings! They are in it up to their EYEBALLS. And it's every aspect of their lives, too. The law; the demon; fellow hunters; their own self-doubt. At this point, the only thing keeping either of them from vibrating into a thousand pieces is the other one, and that is such a precarious balancing act. I just. It hurts, but it hurts so good. This is some truly phenomenal television.

*clutches Winchesters to chest*

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

As much as it hurts, I really do love that Kripke and company are just going for broke and making their lives just horrible. How many shows would even resort to doing this to their characters?

*hugs boys so tight they can't breathe*

[lotesse]

I thought I cried when Dean was talking about Mary, but then I got to the end of the episode. And I realized I had no idea what crying was until that moment. Oh, show! You kill me so!

[strippedpink.livejournal.com]

I am utterly wrecked, man. Last week was awesome, but this week was PERSONAL and just...I just adore Sera's writing. I do. She GETS those boys, and knows that what matters most to them is each other and that Sam IS Dean's faith and Sam's redemption IS Dean, and.

♥

Now I have to go watch Ugly Betty! *races away*

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

YES. Go watch Ugly Betty, you. The awesomeness, it is all-powerful and wise. :)

*shoos you away*

[dragonsinger.livejournal.com]

The minute Dean started saying he'd never seen an angel, I wanted to jump up and down and say, "Yes, you have...your mother."

[beatperfume.livejournal.com]

Reasons I love Dean: He knows who Roma Downey is, but he doesn't know what myspace is. :)

Just both of these boys... Okay, I can't talk about about this episode yet, but I like your Mary theory.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I just ... we've seen three women die or nearly die by fire at the hands of this demon, and they've all been wearing white nightgowns. Twice is coincidence, but three times looks too much like a pattern.

If I were them, I'd be back at baby Rosie's house asking her mother if she knows anything at all that can help them. Her, and Ava's mother (they do know where she lives, after all), and as many of the other mothers as they can find.

[hellziggy.livejournal.com]

My theory is that back in the day when Touched by an Angel was on the air, Dean was spending a lot of time in hotel rooms, and so he was sure to hit it once or twice while channel surfing in a cheap hotel that didn't have porn.

[hansbekhart.livejournal.com]

Dude, did you notice how Sammy wouldn't quite look at Dean when he was enjoying the Magic Fingers? Maybe he was enjoying them a little bit too visibly, hmmm?

Also, I concur on the unicorn. That would be awesome beyond all belief. Can you imagine Dean's reaction to it?

[unperfectwolf.livejournal.com]

I think we all cried, even though we watched the directors cut like seventeen times. Good god. And I want a unicorn too! PLEASE? We should start a unicorn-fic-a-thon and have people write lots and lots of them.

[denorios.livejournal.com]

I don't think Dean is physically capable of getting rid of the Metallicar. It's practically his soul in physical form!
