Supernatural : 6x01 : Exile on Main Street

[certainthings]

STAN! Hi, husband! Hi! I've missed you.

He's so wonderful and beautiful and he should be funny and snarky and creepy in every ep all the time.

Clearly, he was my favourite part.

Jared's delivery of, 'Yeah, I'm back.' was so so very amusing. It was a very casual, 'Hey, you got your haircut.' kind of delivery.

CORIN NEMEC I LOVE YOU. Forever and always.

Corin Nemec was on an episode of CSI:Miami with Nicki Aycox. (They played husband and wife.) And since she was on Supernatural and played an evil character I'm saying that Corin's character on Supernatural is going to be evil. Yep.

Sam sounds different, I mean his way of talking does not his actual voice.

I kind of wish Lisa had burned on the ceiling for realz.

Oh! That uh, Gwen girl kind of looks like a young Sigourney Weaver.

I don't really get the whole Grandpa thing and him being back how convenient that there's more family that hunts and yadda yadda.

I've never been to hell, she said stating the obvious. So, I have no idea how I'd react if I were to go there and come back. But from what I've seen on my television? So far my favourite and what I think is the best reaction is Angel's. One, he was naked. And two and more importantly he wasn't all fine and dandy and/or pretending to be. He was all twitchy and couldn't really talk and other such things. Plus, he was put in chains for a bit there.

Really glad I'm not the only one who thought that.

THIS.

Didn't watch the ep yet (aside from 1 or 2 snippets throughout), but I agree about Angel's stint in Hell & his return probably being the best I've seen so far. Heck, even Buffy's reaction to being back after being in HEAVEN was better than either Sam or Dean's back-from-Hell emoting. That's just my opinion though.


btw, I thought Grandpa was dead? Didn't he get stabbed back in the 70s before/after/during being possessed? whaaaat....

Stan what?
Wait, I know I know what you're talking about, but I'm momentarily confused.

I don't disagree with you. I'm still on the fence about her.

Lots of Jared's deliveries were amusing to me. I don't know how much if that was Sam supposed to be all different and just...me trying to take Jared seriously. :|

Sam's reaction to Dean's 'how was hell' question bothers me. I mean, I know it's supposed to. But it BOTHERS me.

MEH.

I lost my shit the most when Stan!YED showed up, no lie. It was a combination of fright and excitement, mixed with general fangrrl squee.

Sam is verah different, and it's quite intentional, I think. I don't the the Campbell family makes things "convenient" at all--in fact, I think it's going to be quite an obstacle to overcome and I think eventually it will be the Winchester Bros VS the Campbell clan. Sammy sounds different because granpops & co are bad hunter influences. They are to Sammy what Gordon was to Dean, only way less sexy. Trufax.

I'm mostly excited 'cept I'm a little leery of all the "we are the only ones to escape from hell" retconning. It makes no sense not to at least have Deanna too (other than they couldn't afford another actor) and really I would have much prefered getting Adam back. Eventually he'd had to die (again) or something because he couldn't permanently get between our boys, but it would have made some awesome angst.

Ah, glad I got that out of my system. I was too lazy to write up my own post and now I don't have to. :)

ETA: Lisa's...a difficult character. Must tread lightly with female characters in this show (especially romantic ones) but she can't step into 'Sue territory. I don't think she's a Sue (yet) but I find her being so understanding a little frustrating. I would have clawed at Dean's ear in that staircase scene, no lie. I like the actress though. She conveys a lot with her non-verbal acting.

What's difficult is that I bought it from Dean's perspective (he just wants the place markers of "wife" and "kid" and would let anyone willing fill those roles) but her's is more...sticky. I get that she wants a good role model for her kid but on the flip side I would think she'd be so concerned with her kid getting attached that she wouldn't allow someone in Dean's position (life-threatening situations, no stability, shaky past) in her home. Hm.

Stan is YED yes?? :D LOVE him. Second best part of the ep imo.

Sam sounds VERY different. I don't know. :/

And I don't know how Grandpa is back either. I'm just so confused about that whole thing.

Sam should've been naked. UH HUH.

[not-sally.livejournal.com]

OMG you kill me.

Ok, YES, STAN IS BACK!
No, for realz SPN, how about you bring him back? It's not like bringing people from the dead is such a hardship, and Fred ROCKS.

I squeed so hard when I read his name, and Mitch and Corin's!!
I propose as follows, S1 Demon-Revival: Nicki should totally be Corin's... whatever, I don't even care, just bring them all together and keep them alive or undead, evil or not, who cares.
They're awesome.

And yeah, the whole "I'm back, not a demon, let's get our brotherly hug out of the way, yeah?" was a bit... disappointing, to put it mildly, for me.

Also, I most definitely agree with you on the whole Angel-type-of-hell thing. I mean, Lisa even mentioned that Dean had survived the apocalypse, so she didn't expect him to be just dandy living RL, but if this is as far as PTSD goes on SPN land, I'm gonna start believing their version of hell somehow resembles Southpark's.

When Stan showed up my reaction was a combo of utter GLEE and cursing the writers for bringing back a character/actor (possibly not for the first time this season?) that will most definitely keep me watching. Oh, STAN. I missed you!

I'm pretty sure Grandpa & the Cousins (which sounds like a lame punk band) are Shady with a capital "Sh."

Sam, meanwhile...there's something definitely up there. I'd like to think that Jared's performance/his face during the hug were deliberately shifty/off & not Jared just completely half-assing it.

I agree, both Sam and Dean's post-Hell experiences have involved a distinct lack of naked feralness. Although, fingers crossed on the nakedness at least. We still have to see the rest of the pull-ups scene. And then rewind it obsessively just in case it's all we get.

I miss YED so much. If anyone should be resurrected, it should be him. He could school every other villain on the show in awesomeness to the max.

I don't know if I need Lisa to burn, but I kind of want her and the kid gone like yesterday. Do not care.

I love your review. :)

And this: CORIN NEMEC I LOVE YOU. Forever and always. ~ So very true for me too! ♥

Sam would look great in chains.
