Ramblin' Rose and Show 8x02

[roxy]

Do you think the CW purposely makes those lame promos so lame? Like, they're so crap that folks talk about them and any talk is good talk as far as they're concerned? I mean, aren't these the folks who lost Chloe's leg? Or was it Lois' leg? Someone lost a limb....

Speaking of losing something, today, I miss Lex and Clark fiercely. It's probably that show Arrow. It had such a Smallville Being Serious look to it. He killed folks though--shocking. I don't want to spoil anyone in case they were desperately waiting for Arrow to show but wow, that guy's kind of cold-blooded. I might have to watch again.

And then speaking of cold-blooded, I don't hate what they did with Dean this season. He's as screwed up as ever, just in the opposite way he was after hell. It's a real treat for folks into Wolf!Winchesters. And next week, we get a look at Heidi!Sam. A treat for those folks into...well, I don't know anyone into Sam pretending to be Fraulein Maria. Maybe it won't be that bad....

I love heroes who are that human and flawed in the extreme; to the point the line between who the bad guy is and who the good guy is starts to blur.

I completely get that. That's what makes Batman more interesting than Superman to me. I've always liked the not-quite good guy.

What do you mean Heidi Sam?

Oh, that's just my roxy way of wondering what the hell is going on in Sam's life—the previews for the upcoming week show Sam and his girl and dog apparently enjoying a picnic lunch in a meadow. Romance makes me sarcastic unless it also involves things blowing up. So not to worry, there's no actual Sam in a dress…though I'd pay cash money to see 6'4" ginormous Jared Padalecki in a dress! Ha!

Cold though... I like cold-blooded, especially if they're both playing at being glaciers (are they? please say yes).

Sadly, I must say no. :( Only Dean is being cold-blooded—and being amazing at it. Sam is being overly-patient, I Am The Voice of Reason Sam, my least favorite flavor. I agree with you about Jared completely. He's so gooood about being bad. I'd love to see him play out that roboSam role to the extreme. So what if it's wrong, him being psycho is hot like fire!

Good lord, yes. I loved the Superman movies as a kid, but Batman will always have my heart, so to speak. Him and Wolverine. And Pyro from the movies because Aaron Stanford OWNED that role. And he is also made of tiny, bizarro hotness that I cannot explain. So. Double bonus. \o/

Oh! Okay. I can live with that better than I can live with Sam in drag. It's weird, but with Dean I can totally see that. With Sam, otoh, it does not compute. I mean, my imagination will provide me with the image, but it's not a pretty picture. At all. And poor Sam looks so unhappy. Lol. Is it weird that I want to climb Jared? Because I do. But that would be inappropriate and I'd never actually attempt that. Funny to think about though. I'm totally with you about the romance crap though. Give me romantic scenes = prepare to be mocked and jeered. Add a little angst, woe, heartbreak to the Nth degree or just some general mayhem and I can tone it down.

Ahh... Okay. Hmm. Idk then. Cold Dean is still preferable to weepy Dean any day though. What I've seen of Sam so far though just continues to drive the idea into me that he is tired. Like, maybe that patience you've mentioned is actually a side-effect of something far, far deeper. Something which I am gleefully exploring and being mean about, but ya know. Whatevs. I do mean shit when I get bored. And apparently I feel like picking on Sam for this round of Why JD is an Asshole to Characters. ::ahem::

Gah, I want Robo Sam ALL THE TIME. Like, Sam on a killing spree like... like... *twitch* It's the way Jared plays it/presents it and there is a chilling level of accuracy in his portrayals of that kind of person that really makes me want to applaud him. He sells the idea with every gesture, each lack of inflection, the falsely charming and the sadistically amused and I... I... *no words* I am a fan, let's just leave it at that.

Btw: Thank you, yet again, for keeping me in the loop and helping me to feel not as lost. I appreciate it muchly. *candies for you*

Well, that and the porn....
