butterflyThis show really is firing on all cylinders this season. I haven't been disappointed yet. I really enjoyed this episode -- seeing Clark save Lex was a neat blast to the past, and I adored that scene of Lana slipping into her secret spy cave where she's watching the mansion. No wonder she's got all the news! Lovely. Chloe has a good, strong arc going on that's quite Clark-eske.
Though Jimmy's reaction has a bit more power to me because, so often, Chloe really has explicitly left him hanging for Clark's sake and he's known about it (not to mention Chloe's defense of Clark post-Crimson).
Great episode, particularly for Chloe.
Supernatural: Bad Day at Black Rock
Well, after she took 46 thousand potential dollars off him and, you know, shot his brother, I don't see Dean and Bella jumping into the sack any time soon (unless it's hate!sex).
This episode was hysterical. I adored pretty much every second (and it's the first episode to make me physically jump in horror -- when the petty thief slipped on the beer bottle and was impaled through the face, I shrieked, man). Loved that Sam told Dean about Ruby (not thrilled that he's still holding back on the mom angle, though). Aw. And Dean totally knows that he's Sam's weakness. Adored Dean's reaction to both Sam's and his own lucky streaks.
I really liked Gordon in this episode -- his hate of Sam seems very pragmatic and not at all revenge-based, which raises my opinion of him (plus, his reaction to the other hunter being all "It's a sign from God!" was priceless. That 'okay' was brilliant, I loved it, and it made me want more of the actor).
Back to Bela -- I love that she has her own agenda and that she doesn't exist for the sake of the boys. Liked her random cat (yay, cats!). She has style. I approve. Yay on Bela.
I absolutely despise that the son gets a new car with no strings attached while the daughter is told she only gets one if her dad can check out her boyfriend -- she only gets the perks of being his kid if he can control her sexuality. Also, son gets affection by doing a selfless gesture, while daughter gets affection because the father has successfully driven away her boyfriend (thus, controlling her sexuality).
Forty-two and eighteen is a large age gap, but she has the right to make her own choices (plus, nine hundred and nineteen is an even larger one, so I'd be a bit of a hypocrite to condemn Cheyenne's relationship while 'shipping Doctor/Rose).

Date: 2007-10-19 02:32 pm (UTC)This is my favorite episode of Supernatural to date I think. It is definately an anyday mood enhancer epi. (You know except for the impaling thing). I love that Bela is all about herself and I can't see her and Dean together for awhile (if ever) because of her disregard for human life - oh and she shot Sam, which I have faith Sam would bring up it they even remotely got romantic....although I can see Dean saying something along the lines of "You shot me Sammy, and I forgave you." LOL - overall episode was completely and utterly made of win. I just wanted to smoosh the Sam that reverted to being 4 when he lost his shoe. Oh and Dean, yeah whole episode - Dean broke my ovarys because they kept lunging at the screen. So in closing Kripke and Edlund totally own my soul and tv for as long as they want to play. :)
Viva Laughlin - so sad - I had such high hopes. I HATE the changes in Ripley's character from Blackpool. My hubby says I was spoiled for it because I watched Blackpool, but here is my opinion... If I hadn't watched Blackpool, they would have lost me when Melanie Griffith started singing because I was waining already. As it was I watched until we met the cop (who is NO David Tennant even on his best day) before leaving the room in disgust. Sadly this will not be on my TiVO anytime soon. :(
PS - we will miss you tomorrow Butterfly wish you could be there

Fun! So much fun. I really loved it.

*sigh*
Yeah. I was disappointed, too. I'm going to give it another try on Sunday, just in case it gets better, but so far it isn't even in the same league as Blackpool.

I'm sure you're having fun! Enjoy the pretty boys.

I like Bela too.

I know! I loved Gordon's tiny moment of "dude, this guy is nuts". Heh.

This ep was beyond awesome. It was Leg-en-wait for it....DARY! Legendary.
Jared was so great playing pathetically unlucky Sammy. Just sitting there scratching his nose...we're waiting for him to draw blood, but then takes a right turn and blam. AC goes up in smoke. That bit killed me.
SN...not a bad episode yet this season.
