Supernatural : 6x03 : The Third Man

[certainthings]

I'm tired and have a headache, I was hungry when I watched the ep. All of this might account for the really non positive review of this ep. Or maybe it was just not a good ep.


All right, obviously I have not gone through any of these things that these characters have gone through. However ...

The men at the beginning. I don't know but if my face was peeling off like that or if I saw someone's face peeling off, I'd react a bit more strongly than just 'Oh, dear. Ho-hum, ho-hum.' But then maybe that was part of the magic? *shrugs*

Sam paying for hookers? Seriously? No, but seriously? That has to be the most unrealistic things Show has ever shown. Ever.

"Were you racing me?"
"No, I was kicking your ass."

Or however that went. Yeah, uhm. Really? If Dean were still upset and/or angry with Sam for not telling him that he was alive, I'd get that. But being all childish just seems stupid. At least so soon after, "I WANTED MY BROTHER ALIVE!"

Erm. Other stuff happened.

All right then. The end.

Dean finally asked Sam if he was okay. Only ... it didn't seem like Dean really cared more like Jensen was reading words off a page.
And as for Sam's, "I'm peachy keen, jelly bean." answer. I honestly cannot tell if that was Sam being a horrible liar or Jared being a bad actor and it's really annoying me.

Ugh, this ep made me so damn cranky. I want to kick everybody in the shins.

Lines from other shows that made me think of Supernatural. In a good way.

Langston: Let's go hunt some monsters.


Bridgette: This is my favourite part, where you say something so dumb no one else knows what to say.

Okay, perhaps that last one is a bit snarky.

BRIDGETTE IS MY FAVORITE.

They're all my favourite but I think I enjoy Joe and Bridgette the mostest. Most of the time.

SPN tonight made me want to punch a baby. S'all I'm sayin'.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I understand that.

LOL forever.

:p

Yep, spn sucked. I played online games while watching. Is it sad that I was even a little more interested in what was going on with the fucking angels than I was with the boys? That is the lowest common denominator, right there. I may give it one more before I decide that it's just too damn boring. :/

Perhaps a little sad. I'd really like to know what these writers are thinking when they write these eps because seriously.

"I hope Edlund gets back with that eight ball soon."

Ahahhaha.

I think Sam THINKS he's alright, or he's just lying to HIMSELF.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I think I agree with you on Sam thinking that he's all right.

[brianshanelvr.livejournal.com]

I'm hoping for a breakdown with tears! ;D

Dean, what is wrong with me!? I feel so broken!

Sam paying for hookers? Seriously? No, but seriously? That has to be the most unrealistic things Show has ever shown. Ever.

yeah, that. only i was too busy being horrified by the fact that said hooker didn't secure her payment before the sex!

stop it, Show.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

That as well. This show is stupid.

[giantlovetingle.livejournal.com]

I agree, there was nowhere near enough of OH MY FUCKING GOD! WHAT IS THIS? WHAT'S HAPPENING? OH MY GOD WHY IS MY FACE PEELING/WHAT ARE THESE BOILS/WHY IS MY HEAD ITCHY AND BLEEDING *FLAILING OF ARMS* DDDDD:

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

There seriously wasn't.

[eilan.livejournal.com]

I'm kinda with you on the ep, it was meh.

And rly, the hookers? wtf?

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

That part was really really and I mean really unbelievable.

I really hope Sam WAS actually ok in Hell. Either that, or he really is Samifer now, or some kind of Lucifer-Sam Winchester mutation. I hope that Dean just couldn't handle Hell as well as Sam because Dean is more...IDK, emotional? Yeah, that. And Sam is colder.

See, my views on Sam all go back to Mystery Spot, and how living through all that shit completely changed him. I think they're just assuming that Spn fans will recognize that watching his brother die and come back every day for a hundred days and then living without him for another six months only to get him back again only to LOSE him again to Hell is simply not something he can come back from.

Losing people like that kills something inside a person, and yes, this is a character from a show and Show is probably not all that deep, but it explains Sam PERFECTLY (for me). Why should he give a shit? It's all gonna get torn away, anyway, so it's a nod to self-preservation for him to just take every single thing with a grain of salt, ESPECIALLY anything regarding the one person he's always loved more than anything.

So.....all that was to say I hope Jared is doing some seriously deep acting, lol. (It's how I feel about Genevieve and Ruby, too. I think she wrongly assumed that fandom would get where she was coming from, and...fandom is not that deep. Unless it's about Jensen or Dean.)

I don't know that I will ever know whether it's bad lying vs bad acting but I do honestly believe that Sam was mostly okay in Hell. Sure, Sam had a hold of the wheel when he jumped but I don't think he stayed in control. I think that he just doesn't want Dean to know just *how* okay he was.
