Random TV Thoughts
Supernatural
I don't usually post my Supernatural episode reactions, because quite frankly, others are a lot more coherent and incisive than I am, but I'll make an exception for 4.03 squee. Here are some random thoughts influenced by my venerable old age (I was a small child during the early 70's), and some other stuff, too, lol:
Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles
Damn, I love this show! I love how well written, well directed and well acted it is. I love the pacing, the touch of religion, the teenage angst, the motherly love, the ass kicking, CAMERON (my one and only lesbian crush), and DEREK (slobber slobber nekkid in the shower with tattoos). Sarah's pretty cool, too.
I heard rumors that the show is close to being cancelled. NO NO NO NO!!! It doesn't seem to have a strong fan base, though. At least, judging from SCC's presence at ComicCon and lack of comms on LJ. There are a few, but nothing like SPN.
Sanctuary
I'm going to watch this tonight because I've heard good buzz about it and I like Amanda Tapping. But am I the only one that thinks it looks like a rip off of Torchwood?
Breaking Bad
This is an original show in AMC about a high school chemistry teacher diagnosed with lung cancer. In order to provide for his family, he hooks up with a drug dealing ex-student to use his chemical knowledge to cook up meth. Hubby talked me into watching this, since he's a Chemical Engineer and the mere sight of periodic tables makes him froth at the mouth. Anyhow, I've only seen 2 eps (of an 8 ep season, I think) and it's really good. Kind of a dark comedy. It's by Vince Gillian, of X-Files fame.

- Tab ad on the bus bench - Tab was the BARFIEST cola EVAR
- Dean got a new bracelet ... right? It has beads on it, it's not the leather one of seasons past ... did this just happen? I am somewhat clueless so I could have missed it.
- Hubby says that the diner where Dean and John first meet looks the same as the one in Back to the Future
- Sonny & Cher ... good God but I REMEMBER watching their variety show as a kid. When my parents weren't trying to get me to watch that truly horrid show, Hee Haw.
- Question - so Mary's whole family is hunters. Well, now I want to know HOW they got into hunting in the first place!!
- LOL - Dean's mom kicks his ass.
- I love Mary's shirt - the white Western shirt with red roses. I would wear that. Does that make me a bad person?
- LOL about that piece of shit old car Dean is driving around. Hubby says it's not a Pacer but it sorta looks like one.
- "Chatty Cathy"!!! I HAD one of those dolls when I was itty bitty. Jeremy Carver, you must be elderly, like myself!
- Favorite line in the whole ep. Dean: "I've got a chance to save my family's lives. My family." Oh, DEAN!!
- Dean's gramma is a babe for an old broad.
- Ovaltine!! Oh, Ovaltine. Another memory from years gone by.
- John is sorta a panywaist. I can't really imagine this John turning into the bad ass John we all know and love so well.
- Mary's kiss with Gramps. ICK.
- Awww, the look on Dean's face when Castiel puts his hand on Dean's shoulder. He's just so devastated.

I'm hoping SCC is not canceled too
It's so weird to see people talking about sanctuary,it'll be interesting to see what the reaction is, Amanda does a good job as do the other actors, but unfortunately i don't think the writing stands up, But time will tell :)
I'm loving season 4 of supernatural.

It debuted on the web awhile ago, didn't it? You had to pay, I think? Yeah, if the writing isn't good then I doubt I'll like it.
Yay for S4 of SPN!!!
