This Must Be Fake Mine.
Aug. 26th, 2014 05:40 pmFinished the seventh season of Supernatural; just starting on the eighth!
Oh, I like Charlie a lot. She feels carefully crafted to appeal to the fandom, which - because I'm contrary - is something that will usually push me away from a character, but somehow she really works for me. I hope we see her again!
It's interesting to discover the misconceptions I had about later Supernatural developments. I knew that a character called Kevin Tran existed, but somehow I got him confused with Benny. I was very confused when Kevin actually showed up and seemed decidedly unvampiric. Maybe he'll be turned later? I thought, puzzled, until Benny appeared and I realised they were two completely different characters.
( And some notes on the first two episodes of season eight. Fairly negative, I'm afraid. )
Look, Supernatural, I enjoyed Sera Gamble's divisive run as showrunner, and I'm prepared to give Jeremy Carver's a chance. I don't mind too much that the plot has lost focus a bit, after the careful structure of seasons one to five. So long as the characters I love are there, I'm happy. But don't you dare try to turn Dean Winchester into someone I can't recognise. Don't you dare.
(Also, let's have more Charlie.)
