SueB June 9, 2017 Share June 9, 2017 Has TNT always played the original music? Racist Ghost Truck was on and they had the original music. 1 Link to comment

I think they've (almost) always had the original music. The only one I remember them changing was after the car crash at the end of Devil's Trap, where they put some (annoyingly innocuous) original music instead of "Bad Moon Rising," and I think got a lot of flak for it. (IIRC it was before Netflix and so was the first time fans missed the music.) Link to comment

As far as I know, the music has always been correct on broadcast. It's just the Netflix streaming versions of S1 where the music was changed--not in every episode, though. I'd hazard a guess that the music is correct on Amazon and iTunes, though, since you have to purchase the episodes and that probably covers the deals they made similar to the DVD sales. Whereas Netflix, the flat subscription rate probably doesn't cover the royalty costs or something. It's interesting how the options have changed since S1!

FlickChick June 10, 2017 Share June 10, 2017 No, TNT broadcasts Season 1 without the original music. The so-called "Bad Moon Rising" music is truly obnoxious and takes me out of the tragedy of the scene. Ironically, in the Season 2 opener when "Bad Moon Rising" is played, it is the correct version by CCR. I suspect that after WB (or TNT) released the episodes without the original music, they decided that it was a mistake for a show that is supposed to be filled with classic music. Or perhaps there was some other reason to continue paying residuals for the music. Link to comment

That's weird, I was watching Faith on TNT and they played Don't Fear The Reaper, which is the original music , but it's not on Netflix. I wonder if it's a matter of the particular piece of music?

I do know that the TNT version doesn't have "Fight the Good Fight" intro for the finale in S1. For whatever reason, it's the finale's music that insults me more than any other. It's also interesting to me that SN kept "Carry On, Wayward Son" which was introduced in the penultimate episode (Salvation) as its perennial finale song. :) Edited June 10, 2017 by FlickChick spelling error - it's not it's; it's its. 3 Link to comment
sarthaz June 16, 2017 Share June 16, 2017 I'm not aware of anything wrong with the TNT music. It's Netflix that's jacked. Some days TNT is really there for me. Rough week, but today I get: Playthings, Nightshifter, Houses of the Holy, Born Under a Bad Sign, and Tall Tales. Pretty hard to beat that. 5 Link to comment
SueB June 17, 2017 Share June 17, 2017 I intentionally watched the TNT airing of "Devil's Trap" JUST to check the music -- and it's the 'alternate' music at the end. In short - NO CLUE. It seems a mix of both alternate and original. 2 Link to comment
MysteryGuest June 24, 2017 Share June 24, 2017 I've been watching season 11 today, and I still have no idea why they felt the need to de-age Amara back to an infant, and then re-age her back to her original age. It made very little sense to the story. I suppose it was a plot device to explain why she'd be vulnerable enough to hang out with Crowley for a few episodes, but it was totally unnecessary. The very opening scenes of Dean and Amara in the fog definitely had sexual tension, so having her then become a baby took whatever potential story there might have been and gave it a major ick factor. I think they originally planned for their connection to be something more sexual than it turned out to be. But because of the ill-advised choice to make her an infant, it completely ruined the connection they had, and made it something neither character could articulate. And having Dean awkwardly state that it wasn't a physical attraction, when prior scenes clearly showed that it was, just muddied the waters even more. I wish they'd gone with their original plan. I think it could have been a much more interesting storyline. 3 Link to comment

I think it could have been a much more interesting storyline. It was a 'god becomes man' story. That in order to interact with the world, Amara needed to become part of the world. And just like Jesus became incarnate (Latin for 'in the flesh') as a baby, they had Amara do the same. The process of growing being part of the transition. And from a horror perspective, horror stories LOVE evil babies. It's a classic. 3 Link to comment

Today starts off with 6.03 - The Third Man, and then BAM -- Something Wicked comes on!? Checking ahead in the guide, it's Provenance and Dead Man's Blood to close out the day.

Commando Cody August 3, 2017 Share August 3, 2017 It has been a busy summer and I haven't had time to watch in a while. I turned to TNT to watch Supernatural this morning and it has come around to pretty much where I left off earlier this year. 5 Link to comment
Hanahope August 24, 2017 Share August 24, 2017 Ah here I was looking forward to getting through at least season 10 and maybe even 11 while on vacation at my in laws house in France, so I'd be much closer to catching up in time for season 13. But apparently Netflix in France will only let me download season 9. I'll have that done in a few days (depending on what we're doing). Guess I'll have to do major binging in September. 4 Link to comment

Jeddah October 9, 2017 Share October 9, 2017 I only had to catch up on one season because I started watching in Season 2, but it was back in the day when I had to get Netflix to physically mail me the DVDs. It was torture only getting 4 episodes at a time, and then waiting another 3 days for the next one to arrive in the mail. I eventually bought the DVDs because I wanted to rewatch and just couldn't handle the wait again. Thank goodness for streaming. Now I can really go all-in on binge-watching. 3 Link to comment
