SPN Season 4: A journey

[hils]

Unexpected things that have happened to me whilst watching Season 4 of Supernatural

1. Sam Winchester got hot. I still don't know how or why this suddenly happened but Sam did nothing at all for me until the first episode of season 4 and now he's just so GUH

2. Castiel. I found him interesting in episode one, mildly attractive in episode two and totally hot by episode three. I'm still fairly sure lusting after an angel (even if it's just a fictional one) is a bad thing but that's not going to stop me

3. Slashing an angel. I'm sure this has to be even more wrong than lusting after one but it's too beautiful. I can't help it. Dean and Castiel need each other and I'm fairly sure this is going to become canon (them needing each other, not the slash) fairly soon.

Because I've been discussing this with a few people I've gone through all my episode review posts for season 4 and split them into those I liked and those I was less happy with

Liked
4.01 - Dean comes back from Hell. We meet Castiel
4.03 - Dean goes back in time and meets his mother and father
4.06 - Dean gets the fear sickness
4.09 - Sam has sex with Ruby in a flashback
4.11 - Cannibal kids living in the walls
4.14 - Sam and Dean meet a siren
4.16 - Dean gets called in to torture Alistair
4.17 - Sam and Dean meet again for the first time

Indifferent
4.02 - The boys see all the people they failed to save
4.04 - Dean finds out Sam has been using his psychic powers
4.07 - Uriel wants to smite a town
4.10 - Dean has sex with Anna
4.13 - Kid!Sam and kid!Dean in school
4.15 - Death took a holiday

Disliked
4.05 - Monster movie
4.08 - Everyones wishes are granted
4.12 - Old magicians

Looking at it like that I actually enjoyed more episodes than I disliked or was indifferent to. So YAY!

Poor Monster Movie. It's my #3.

[hils.livejournal.com]

Hehe! Really?

[bogwitch.livejournal.com]

Absolutely!

I can't believe you rated Yellow Fever.

THAT was funny!

It had it's moments, but it was a ropey old episode.

I liked it, but then I am a sucker for woobie!Dean

I liked Monster Movie as well: it amused me no end.

Especially the liederhosen...

Yes, forget last week, Monster Movie was actually funny and had Jamie in it, one of my favourite SPN women.

The weird thing for me about S4 has been my... 'retroactive enjoyment' of the episodes, namely 4.07 and 4.10. I didn't really enjoy those two the first time I saw them (especially 4.10), but after re-watching them I noticed little things that I hadn't really caught on to before.

Plus... 4.07 confirmed to me that Dean IS a baseball fan, which I had theorized about before, and hearing him say "baseball's still a beautiful game" made me squee REALLY LOUD. (See what I mean? Little things. O_o)

Maybe when season 4 is over I'll watch the whole thing again and see if my opinion changes *g*
