I've decided not to continue posting my thoughts on eps of the shows I watch. I can't rightly call them recaps and it's not fair to expect you all to wait while I catch up to technology [as far as making gifs, etc.]
It's not that I haven't enjoyed doing it, but I don't enjoy it enough to keep doing it without seeing any type of response on the blog itself. I even tried it on tumblr. I got I think maybe one note and that disappeared. Also since I'm taking more voiceover training, I don't think my schedule would allow for too much more leeway anyway.
Thank you to all who glanced at some of my posts and told me what you thought on Twitter, etc. I didn't forget or overlook you.
Just trying to eliminate stress for myself wherever/however I can.

My thoughts on Supernatural Seas. 7, Ep 3 Girl Next Door (Contains Spoilers!)
First off, I want to say that Jensen Ackles did a wonderful job directing. I think what I'd like to do sometime today is look at both eps he directed back to back and see if I can pick up any signature stuff. I love doing stuff like that. I enjoyed how we got to see stuff from Dean's point of view for a little bit when he was on the morphine for his leg.
Bobby - I knew he wasn't dead, mainly because of spoilers. There has been some speculation that perhaps he was Leviathan!Bobby. I really hope not. :( Time will tell.
Dean - The scene where Dean was trying to get out of the hospital bed on his own cracked me up. Where he thought he was going, esp. without crutches, I don't even know. I was worried for a while that he would get left behind at the hospital. I was relieved when he made it to the ambulance Bobby comandeered [How Bobby managed that, I'll never know, but that was Badass.] The part where he was watching the telenovelas cracked me up too. [I'd really love to know what started him watching that kind of thing. ] His sawing the cast off after three weeks also cracked me up. [I wish I had Winchester healing power. Really.] I do not hate Dean. I kind of feel like some stuff he did last night was like taking two steps forward and then two back though. Dean socking Sam when he came back from confronting Amy...Ok, Dean couldn't have known that she knocked Sam down too, and I get that he wasn't thrilled with Sam taking off with the Impala and just leaving a note, but if Sam's still hallucinating and he had a concussion 3 weeks ago, is knocking the sh*t out of him smart? I know they've hit each other before, but still... I just wasn't happy about that. I also thought Dean calling Amy a freak was unnecessary, especially when he knows how words like freak and monster make Sam feel. Maybe he felt like it was Ruby 2.0 revisited...I know once trust is lost...it's depending on what's happened, it can be very difficult to find again, but still...
As far as Dean killing Amy goes...It reminded me of the part in Kill Bill Vol. 1 where Vernita Green's little girl walks in and sees what Beatrix [Beatrice?] has done. I don't know how to feel about this...I do believe Amy or the boy would possibly have killed again. But if he would have killed the boy too...I'd be even more conflicted...And then who was the boy saying he could go to? They better hope it's not one of the Leviathan or else this is going to totally turn around and bite The Winchesters and possibly Bobby too. [ No pun intended.]
Sam - The scars on Sam's hand and the fact that he's still having the hallucinations, make me wonder why Dean thought it was ok to send him to the store, but not ok for Sam to work a case on his own.
The cake and pie thing... I don't think Sam meant to be insensitive when it came to that. Maybe the store didn't have pie. Maybe the pie in the store looked nasty. Maybe Sam's one of those people that thinks all sweets are the same. Or maybe he doesn't like sweets at all and so would probably never get that cake is not pie. We'll probably never know, but I don't think he deliberately brought cake back to mess with Dean.
Sam thinking of himself as a "freak" ... That messes with me so bad. I won't bore you with all the reasons why here, but I just...it's painful to watch and I mean that in a good way, if it's even possible to say such a thing.
Colin Ford did an amazing job as always playing Young Sam. That scene where Amy shoots Sam down at first when he's trying to talk to her...I was just like Wow! I loved seeing him back. Also, that line about 8 years...Was there some significance to that particular number? [I know way to read too much into sh*t, right?]
Easter eggs - When Dean dozes off in front of the TV they give a nod to My Bloody Valentine in 3D.
Amy Pond the alias Amy uses is from Doctor Who. She is a friend to the 11th doctor.
The rock aliases: Lemmy Kilmister [Motorhead] and Lars Ulrich [Metallica of course]
Unpopular opinion: Ok, so far as I know Kitsune are Japanese in origin. Casting a Japanese actress or Japanese American actress would have made more sense to me here. I'm all for open casting and all, but this was a bit of a stretch, even for me. When a particular figure from folklore is unique to a region...I feel like it's important to retain some aspect of the culture. The actresses playing Amy did excellent jobs, I still stand by my opinion though.
Bobby - I knew he wasn't dead, mainly because of spoilers. There has been some speculation that perhaps he was Leviathan!Bobby. I really hope not. :( Time will tell.
Dean - The scene where Dean was trying to get out of the hospital bed on his own cracked me up. Where he thought he was going, esp. without crutches, I don't even know.

My thoughts on "End of the affair" Vampire Diaries Seas. 3, Ep. 3
Damon - Has no shame. lol I loved when Gloria essentially told him using his charm on her wouldn't work.
Gloria - Made it to the end of the ep. I feel like that is a huge victory in and of itself. I still want Lucy to come back.
Stefan - I have nothing to go on here, because there is no Rebecca in the book. Just because Klaus made him remember doesn't wipe away all his experiences and feelings for Elena though. I feel like if anything, this will only just further complicate things.
Klaus - The running from someone premise...Didn't we see this before with Katherine? I'm starting to get bored with Big Bads running from Even Bigger Bads. I guess that whole idea just doesn't make sense to me, because sooner or later you have to hit the top of the food chain, don't you? (I'm sorry, but it has to end somewhere.)
Rebecca - I just felt nothing...I'll give it a few episodes. Also, if she threw that much of a tantrum over her missing necklace...I don't even want to see the one she's going to throw if/when she finds out where it is.
Tyler - I can't profess my love for him enough.
Sheriff Forwood - I think she might finally be over seeing Caroline as a monster. Caroline needs at least one of her parents to have their head on straight. Thursday night was just heart wrenching.
Caroline - Candice Accola...There are a lot of talented people that make up this cast, and she is one of the ones that can put on performances that leave me truly speechless.
Elena - I can't figure out whether she's ready to give up on Stefan or not. I don't want to see that, but if Klaus finds out she's alive...I really do see what I predicted in one of my previous posts happening.
Katherine - Couldn't figure out for the life of me where she was last night. Also, I wish they'd not waste that character. She just seemed like so much filler to me.
Bonnie - We finally get to see her again next week. Not that I'm not over the moon about the introduction of Gloria.
No Jeremy, Vicki, or Anna :(
The 1920's flashbacks - They were alright...Maybe Boardwalk Empire has spoiled me here. To be fair though, the CW is not HBO, and the flashbacks were not the whole of the story. I'm also not an expert on the period, so I don't know how accurate they were or weren't, what anachronisms there were, etc.

My thoughts on Supernatural Seas. 7, Ep 2 Hello Cruel World (Contains Spoilers)
Bobby - Bobby called Cas a friend. I loved this. I'm not certain where he is, but I know Bobby's not gone. Devastated about his house though. No more panic room either. :(
Also that line about Sam not being curled up beneath the sink...I'm going to hope he was just being facetious and Sam was never literally curled up beneath the sink. [He's in such bad shape it definitely wouldn't be that far fetched, except for he's going out of his way to prove to everyone he can function.]
Sheriff Rhodes - I was worried for her when she passed out. I love that she kept Bobby in mind. She thought quickly and she had one of the best lines in the ep.
Castiel - The zombie shamble thing that Leviathan caused just made me sad. I refuse to believe he's gone. We just saw the coat. No body, no wings... On the other hand, the vessel (Jimmy Novak) has been through so much. I don't know. For once, I want to think positively though.
Dean - I love the way he hung on to Cas's coat, I didn't expect that. It took something happening at Bobby's and possibly to Bobby to get Dean to admit that he wasn't ok. That broke my heart.
Dean might possibly be on his own and with a broken leg...I have to know how they get out of this...[You have to carry me...I didn't know whether to laugh or cry about that line. I think I did both. These poor dudes...]
Sam - Where do I even begin? The way he started, when Dean woke him...[This poor guy...Can this be fixed? ] That line that Sam and Lucifer say at the same time..."You can't torture someone who has nothing left for you to take away." That was creepy, sad, and very effective. And then, that look that Sam has on his face when Dean asks him, if he can see Lucifer as they're talking.
The part in the warehouse...it's funny a tear fell before I even realized I was crying...And then, when Sam was repeatedly digging into that cut...I just felt so very badly for him...
Dean's speech to Sam kind of reminded me of Pt. 2 of Bargaining in Seas. 6 of BtVS, the part where Buffy asks Dawn if she's in Hell and then Dawn has to convince her not to jump from the tower again, because she's all messed up.
That nervous, self-concious little laugh he gives the real Dean when he assures him he's not seeing any white rabbits.
The blow to the head...won't that make things even worse? And Sam was seizing???!!!!
I was positively incoherent at/about the cliffhanger. [If I said I wanted Jared Padalecki to stop blowing me away, I'd be lying.]
Lucifer - Mark Pellegrino has that menacing, funny, and sarcastic thing down.
The allusions from The Bell Jar, to Alice in Wonderland to A Beautiful Mind...I loved them all.
And the use of The Doobie Brothers "Black Water"...I was absolutely giddy.
Edlund and Bee did a fantastic job. IMO Edge of your seat viewing.
Also that line about Sam not being curled up beneath the sink...I'm going to hope he was just being facetious and Sam was never literally curled up beneath the sink. [He's in such bad shape it definitely wouldn't be that far fetched, except for he's going out of his way to prove to everyone he can function.]

My thoughts on Meet the New Boss (Season 7, Ep. 1) Spoilers!
Slow Ride by Foghat to open the season ...I was a bit surprised and I don't quite get it. But I love the song though.
The Title card sequence...I don't love it, but I don't hate it either.
Crowley - I love the humour he injects. We also got a new nickname for Sam. I kind of like Giraffe better than I do Moose, but...meh. [Why can't we just stick with Puppy? Why? Ahem...sorry getting off topic.]
Bobby - He saw what Dean couldn't. That really struck a chord with me. Even in the scene where Bobby's coming down the basement stairs and Sam is freaking out...and Bobby paused for a minute probably having flashbacks to what Soulless Sam tried to do in the Appointment in Samarra ep, he didn't let on.
This is one of those episodes that showcases how much Bobby is like a father to Sam and Dean.
Death - I want to see him pop up again, but then again I don't, because he was po'd at Dean big time.
Dean - I get why for a while last night Dean was just like we can't fix this...I know he's not the only one who's tired, but everyone's got their own coping strategies...Some good, some not so good. I feel like the important thing was he pulled himself together and that he tried to help Cas. As for trying to help Sam, I think they'll delve into that more next week. It's only like a 40 min ep and they can only really solve one crisis at a time. I think sometimes that has a tendency to be forgotten.
Sam - I already had an inkling of what we were in for, because of the previews. When the nosebleed started I knew my heart was going to get ripped out...Those hallucinations were brutal and it makes me wonder what the frequency of them was...Will they be coming more frequently or lasting longer and is there a way to stop them? I'm guessing some of those questions will be addressed next week, but I just felt so badly for Sam. And then, the scenes where he was flinching...I think when Cas threatened to put him back into the cage or the pit or wherever Sam flinched. And I definitely remember seeing him do it when Lucifer was messing with him. Despite all this, he still reached out to Cas...This episode is one more example of why I love this character. [ I didn't want to spam tweet, I didn't want to gush and I didn't want to fangirl, but I mean every word of this post. Note: There is no way I could miss that black V-neck shirt, but if I blog in detail about it, I will need a bib. I am so very sorry. I just can't. Thank you.]
That being said, can't wait to see what happens next week.
Cas/Godstiel/Leviathan - Misha Collins was beyond amazing last night. Godstiel didn't seem like a villain to me, I think Leviathan warped his intentions though, as we saw at the campaign office. I'm terrified of Leviathan. I'm also amazed that Godstiel's power to heal still worked with Leviathan in there. I love that Cas apologized. I kind of wish both Sam and Dean had gotten to hear it though. I also believe that Dean does care about Cas, he just has a lot of trouble demonstrating that to anyone but Sam, and even then, he still seems to have a little trouble. [It's the whole "No Chick Flick Moments" thing.]
The Title card sequence...I don't love it, but I don't hate it either.
Crowley - I love the humour he injects. We also got a new nickname for Sam. I kind of like Giraffe better than I do Moose, but...meh. [Why can't we just stick with Puppy? Why? Ahem...sorry getting off topic.]

My thoughts on The Hybrid (contains spoilers)
Stefan - He just kept killing me last night. I know we are only two eps into the season, but Paul Wesley's performances have been part of the highlights. No question.
Klaus - Kudos to Joseph Morgan also. I say this, because for two seconds last night I actually felt bad that he only had one other comrade. It's easy to make people hate a villain, but to make people sympathize and/or give the villain complexity, ...To me, that's something that takes an extraordinary amount of skill.
Elena - I was going through a mental pros and cons list in my head as far as Damon and Stefan go and I think I have something of an idea of why she's conflicted. I have a sneaking suspicion we may also get vampire Elena at the end of this season and she will remember what Damon said.
Damon - I didn't like the way he pressed Elena out to admit that she was worried about him, especially knowing how strong her feelings for Stefan are. In this way, I kind of like the way books handle the triangle better.
Alaric - I was so happy to see him get back into the swing of things and take that freaking ring back I don't know what to do.
Ray Sutton - I just felt badly for that whole pack. [They were wandering around like zombies after a bit. Gave me the heebie jeebies it did.] I also didn't recognize David Gallagher at all until someone said something...but I can probably count the number of times I've ever watched 7th Heaven on one hand.
Tyler - I was so happy when Matt clued him in on the vervain I didn't know what to do. [ I think I even applauded.]
Carol Lockwood - It's scary to me that she didn't know about the werewolf thing, but she knew about the vampires.
Matt - I enjoyed seeing more of him last night. I don't know how to feel about the offer he made to Tyler...I can't figure out whether or not he was genuinely trying to make amends or trying to knock out the competition.
Vicki - Did she say she could come back? I'm beyond creeped out and I don't have a good feeling about what's about to go down at all.
Anna - I love seeing her again...I have another question about this ghost thing. If they both don't want the same thing, why did they come back together or at the same time? This whole thing is just weird, but I'm curious to see where it leads. I'm also enjoying trying to figure out what's going on...
Jeremy - I think he's in over his head, especially with Anna saying not to trust Vicki. I also think he needs to stop looking up spells on the internet before he screws up stuff even worse.
Bonnie - Is she going to be in next week's ep? I'm seriously starting to miss her. I would also like some confirmation that she has an actual life.
Caroline - Vampire Killer dude is her daddy? I just wanted to cry...And then to end the episode like that.
I hope she doesn't die [again]. She's one of my favorite characters on the show.
Klaus - Kudos to Joseph Morgan also. I say this, because for two seconds last night I actually felt bad that he only had one other comrade. It's easy to make people hate a villain, but to make people sympathize and/or give the villain complexity, ...To me, that's something that takes an extraordinary amount of skill.

Vampire Diaries Season 3, Ep. 1 -The Birthday - Spoilers!
Damon - It's my own fault, but the bathtub scene just had me going "Meh" *shrugs*.
Andie's death, I like that he didn't just zip out and have a meltdown. He still had a tantrum, but still he seems to be maturing...I guess with Stefan gone, he kind of has to. It seemed like he wanted to apologize to Elena for what happened to Stefan, but he stopped himself.
Elena - I'll be curious to see what leads up to what the promo posters were hinting at. She seems very like Katherine in them. What changes her? Again, I'll be very curious to see.
Klaus - He was kind of in the background last night, but he was still no less frightening to me.
Stefan - Paul Wesley thoroughly creeped me out in a way I had absolutely no idea he was capable of. Kudos! And that scene where he called Elena...The way he telegraphed the emotions on his face...you could just see all the things he wanted to say but couldn't.
Alaric - Why is he leaving?????!!!!! We're just now getting to really know/see him and he's leaving? You know what this reminds me of? And I feel like it was a mistake here too. It reminds me of when Giles decides that Buffy doesn't need him anymore and he splits [and later winds up coming back.]. With all the stuff he knows about vampire hunting, etc? What sense does it make for him to leave? I was just so sad to see him go. He needs to come back. Maybe he will after he's had time to grieve/heal?
Andie - I was amazed she came back, especially after how she was sent off last season. And then, to be toyed with the way she was last night. Even though I found the character annoying, I didn't want that for her. And the way she kept calling out Hello...I was like "Run! if you sense something off for pity's sake." Sheesh!
Bonnie - I wish she'd physically been in the actual ep. :( I'd also like to see more of her family members, rather than just hearing them talked about, and I know I'm not alone here.
Matt - It's worrying me that he spoke to Caroline at the party like that. He's a wild card for now, I'm hoping he sides with her rather than against her. I have a feeling Vampire Barbie is going to need all the help she can get this season.
Jeremy - I feel badly for him, but I don't think getting annihilated is going to solve his problems any...
Tyler and Caroline - His lack of tact last night cracked me up. I'm also glad he and Caroline finally hooked up. I don't understand why she left though. I feel like Tyler is the better choice for her, because he understands/can relate to things that Matt wouldn't be able to. But clearly Caroline still has feelings for Matt and she's conflicted. I hope this isn't going to turn into one of the more tedious TV love triangles, because at this point I can't deal...
Carol Lockwood - I thought she was just doing the pissed off/disrespected Mom thing and then she shoots Caroline with wooden bullets and tranq darts. :( What's that all about? It can't be good. And does this mean that Liz's days as Sheriff are numbered? To lose an ally on the police force would seriously damage one of the major advantages the Salvatores have had. I suppose they could create more, but with the same type of clout and from one of the founding families? I think not.
Ray Sutton - I want to see a few more eps before I comment on him. Beyond the fact that I felt bad for him, I have nothing.
Andie's death, I like that he didn't just zip out and have a meltdown. He still had a tantrum, but still he seems to be maturing...I guess with Stefan gone, he kind of has to. It seemed like he wanted to apologize to Elena for what happened to Stefan, but he stopped himself.
