    I think you're answering your own question. Does anyone think Romero is actually dead? It's tv. Romero has to have showdown with Norman. They set it up at the end of last season.

    I hope you're right ganesh! It's not at all satisfying if they kill off Romero this way!

    I just wish they showed guns in a more realistic light in T.V. They're not toys.

    Oh yeah, I'm breaking out the vino tonight. Definitely in for some Netflix & chill.  And the bridesmaids helped with the final setup and sandwich making. I, OTOH, DID attempt to be a pastry chef (when I am NOT).  Still, the food was generally cute and edible so I'm calling it a win.

    My daughter and I are massive tea drinkers and enjoyed a nice cuppa after she came today and helped me clean up.  One of the best lines in Harry Potter is Ron Weasley's "I'll make tea."... if you get the ABSOLUTE TRUTH of that line, then you will appreciate why it had to be a tea party.  Tea fixes everything.

    What a wonderful thing for you to do! I've always liked you Sue, and knew you were a nice person, but this has just blown me away!

    Congrats to your daughter. I'm sure she's a lovely young woman, given her Mom! Thanks for sharing Sue!

    Only at the very end of the movie after he tried to kill Marion's sister. I think before that he had been in a loony bin. Remember "What do you know about caring? Have you ever seen the inside of one of those places? The laughing, and the tears, and those cruel eyes studying you? My mother THERE?"

    Stop spending my money Peacheslatour! Now I have to get the third movie!

    But, in your favor, I did like the sequel, so thanks!

    Re Perez saying he's seen 25 episodes of SPN

    I think it's kind of graceless for a new writer to be so flip, because the people who wrote and produced (and acted in and directed, etc) those other episodes that Perez apparently can't be bothered to watch are *Perez's own colleagues.*

    What kind of dummy says flat out that he hasn't even bothered to take a look at his own colleagues' work? These are people who might be working on the show with him *now.* It just seems really undiplomatic and unprofessional if nothing else.

    Also, there have been 15 episodes THIS SEASON. So I hope that he's not counting S12 episodes in his 25! That would be kind of hilarious, if he had watched literally like 10 episodes before starting to write his own.

    I couldn't believe this when I read your post! Good Chuck, in this time of "Binge watching" you'd think a writer could invest some time in getting to know the series. Watch at  least the last three seasons for cryin' out loud!

    Supernatural is weird for me in that I actually know the individual writers. I don't mean I know them personally, but that I know their names and can usually pick out who wrote what episode just from watching it. Which has it's drawbacks and benefits, IMO. One of the benefits is that I got to watch a few of them grow with the show and watched them develop into full-fledged writers. I was just a little disappointed that Thompson never seemed to grow much. Although, it could be that he also didn't have anyone to water him, so to speak.

    It's strange TripleD, because I have never paid attention to the writers before Supernatural either! Now I have just as much fun as you, and I too can guess the writer based on just a few scenes. I miss Ben Edlund.

    The gut shot is a tv shooting. No one dies from that. It just delays his showdown with Norman.

    He's dead, even with birdshot.

     # 8 bird shot has 1 1/8 ounces of shot moving at 1255 FPS  and holds a very tight pattern at short distances, as does #6 and #4. That is a lot of lead hitting all at once. A well aimed shot to the belly or crotch area at 10 yards or less would most certainly sever an artery and or cause a tremendous amount of damage

    I know a bit about guns. I don't want Romero dead, but if the shot didn't kill him, peritonitis will, unless he gets immediate help. But on T.V., who knows what they'll do?

    I agree with the review that Meg was Kundry from Parsifal

    Oh My God! (Yes, I spelled it out!) Another Opera lover! And Wagner!

  8. On rewatch, this episode is the one that made me fall in love with Rowena. This exchange did it!

    Rowena: You do recall our deal, eh? First I de-spell the angel, then I go free.

    Dean: Mm, except for one thing.

    Rowena: There were no exceptions in our arrangement.

    Dean: The book. Gonna need that baby back.

    Rowena: The book was never mentioned in our negotiations.

    Dean: Well, now it is.

    Rowena: Our deal says --

    Dean: Our deal says whatever I want it to say. You're gonna play by my rules because I have your son on speed dial.

    Rowena: Call him. If I'm dead, you've got a big fat pile of nothing. No book ever. And your friend with the bent halo? He goes foaming-at-the-mouth mad and dies. Your turn!

     

    The way she say's "Your turn!" I laughed like hell!

    Gabriel on the other hand was shown to be very sexual which makes me think that the angels as a whole are not asexual but rather it depends on the interests of the angel in question.

    Or the interest of the vessel they inhabit. Gabriel's sexual interest was on a Dean like level. Gabriel also enjoyed food, which always confused me. Cas never did until they were dealing with Gluttony.

    Now I have to go check Super-wiki. Another night spent in that endless hole!

    I had to add,  I always "shipped' Cas and Meg! I love Meg! And Rowena, so what does that say about me?!

    My best example is actually Hannah.  Hannah started to enjoy showers.  She clearly was starting to fall for Castiel.  And when Caroline (her vessel) cried out when placed in the same room as her husband, Hannah realized how easy it was to adopt 'human' comforts.

    This was something I've been thinking about since I read Wayward Son's first post. A shower is a physical pleasure, so is sex. Hannah experiencing this is just the beginning, IMO, of what happens when they inhabit a vessel for a period of time.

    Yes, I think that was at the beginning of this season when they were trying to find Lucifer's new vessel.

    Would God/Chuck factor in on this discussion also? He told Metatron that he had both girlfriends and boyfriends but despite his Chuck vessel shouldn't he be genderless and asexual also?

    Good point!

    Oh yeah! I have it bookmarked, I haven't been there in a while though. Be careful when clicking on that link folks, it's a black hole that will suck you in!!! ;)

    I've been advocating for the show to do some sort of roadtrip-y scavenger hunt episode and use some of these fun little places for a couple years now. I have no idea how to make it work, but I think it would be fun!

    You must have been the one who gave me that link! Talk about a black hole!!

    Belated thank you for the link! Mick and I have used it countless times for our road trips on the Harley! I can't tell you how much fun we've had!

    This is the bike we travel on. Oh, and Mick.

    Oh, I love that movie, and most of the music in it. One of my favorites was "Tonight Is What It Means to Be Young"

    And McCoy was a character ahead of her time. And the friendship/"'brother in arms" thing she had going with Cody was also ahead of its time. I loved how it was her and not the ex-girlfriend the hero (Cody) went away with in the end, and it wouldn't really matter if they ever had a physical relationship or not, because that wasn't the connection between them.

    Man, now you've made me want to see that movie again, Mick Lady.

    I'm so glad someone else knows it! We have the DVD and the CD soundtrack!

    Several of the songs were written by Meat Loaf's writer, Jim Steinman.

    This is what happens when you marry a musician!

    When you pop a Patty Griffin's "American Kid" album into your car stereo and spend the next two days driving to work wondering if the entire album was a secret tribute to Supernatural. I mean, the title track alone... .

     

    Actually, this is kinda a thing with me and music in general...throw out a song, I'll find a way to make it about Supernatural

    ::snort:: My work here is done! ;)

    I'm going to check out that album right now!

    Mick by the way, calls you "Triple D" He thinks your "A hoot!"  You're one of his favorite posters.

    I can't watch until tomorrow (timezones ugh) . How irritated am I going to be about Castiel's behaviour in this one? I think I read he's back to keeping secrets from the brothers again? *sigh*

    I was wondering where the hell you were.

    Looking forward to your thoughts.

    You know, it never ceases to amaze me how, after all these seasons, the writers keep each episode so fresh with new ideas.

    We need the icon of dripping sarcasm!

    But, I love this show. I'm in for it to the end. I've said it before, 12 years and I still never miss it! That's got to say something!
