superbadgirlOkay, let me just say that I was very impressionable when they did that made-for-TV movie version of Stephen King's It, and even before that, clowns freaked me the hell out. My baby sister had this little wind up toy that was a clown and it gave me nightmares. It's arms and hands were basically shaped like drumsticks and it would bang on this little drum and nooooo. I don't know who gave it to her, but they were clearly sadists.
I digress. Sorry. Clowns. *shudder*
At least Supernatural's opening teaser scene wasn't covered in blood splatter?
Isn't is sad that I want to award one of those little 100 calorie packs of cookies for the non-white nanny character just for being female and, well, non-white? It doesn't deserve actual cookies.
What is up with the dumb 24-style countdown clock? Dear Supernatural, 24 was so two years ago before two years ago, when it ended.
Okay, the nod to the old "I hear that they ride on silver moon beams, and that they shoot rainbows out of their ass!" quote of Dean's about unicorns was very amusing. But the guy was being chased by a creature with a large horn and he leaned against a flimsy fence, thinking he was safe? Dude.
Why would Dean think it was hilarious that his seriously messed up brother who had a phobia of clowns before he started hallucinating hellfire was freaking out about having to go to a place dedicated to clowns? I mean, seriously, I would not send my beautiful mind brother into a situation like that, not with a smile on my face. It's called "Hi, let's unleash Sam's psychosis in the fastest possible manner". I mean, yeah, that didn't happen, but still. And then at the end, Sam's all sweet and gives Dean the super rainbow slinky and Dean gives him a nasty clown doll? Bad Dean. No soup for you.
I really enjoyed the character of Jean. She was a snarky and cute pothead. ;)
Glad it didn't turn out to be her, or the little boy.
I knew it was the cheery counter guy. I'm not sure how I feel about Dean purposely siccing the guy's dead brother on him, though. I don't know why it seems different than plain ol' killing the bad guys of the week - probably because the man was human, not an actual monster. :\
Long rambling short, it surprised me how much I enjoyed this episode of Supernatural. I confess to have gone into it very skeptical and, well, with my outlook colored by overall disillusion.
In completely unrelated news, Roy's been sneezing since we went to the vet on Monday, where he was pronounced healthy. It's like the power of suggestion came to life with him. And now John's sneezing too. :(
