Rant (spoiler warning for 3X08)

I miss season 1.

I really do.

Season 2 had some good episodes, but... Just...

I hate stupid Dean. He doesn't know about Mary Poppins? Come on! Just like the fairy tales stuff. He didn't live in a cave for his entire childhood, the kid went to school, and there's no way he wouldn't know these things.
And about the Christmas lore. Pah-lease. I'm Jewish, and I know that it's based in Pagan mythology. I mean, the tree! It has Ashtoreth written all over it. *eyeroll*
And what were they thinking, using that kid from Something Wicked again? He sucked then, and he still sucks now. It made wee!Dean look like a jerk.
About the necklace. Yep. That's it. I gave up. Ridley was right. Sam gave it to Dean for Christmas. So no, Caleb didn't help him get it, "Uncle Bobby" did. But still. No longer obsessed with it, or with SN.
Which is kinda sad, I think, cuz I really liked it.
But they casted Ben, they couldn't find a kid with actual facial expressions to play wee!Dean? Wee!Sam was perfect (again)... *sigh*
Also, what happened to all their other connections? Season 1 had Caleb, Pastor Jim, and Joshua. Season 2 had Ellen. Why is it only Bobby now? Don't get me wrong, I love bobby (please don't kill him), but it's starting to feel like too much of a pattern. The boys get in trouble, they call Bobby, he calls them idiots, fixes the problem. Yay Bobby.
It's getting tired. Mix it up a little.
And talk about missed opportunities. Pagan gods taking Sam's (AntiChrist Jr.) blood, and nothing happens? They mix it with Dean's, and still nothing? Not even a flinch or a 'something's not right'? Dude.
So... I dunno.
I miss getting all excited about episodes. I just don't really get that lately, and it's kinda sad.
So here's yet another episode everyone else loved, and I just... didn't.
I'm beginning to like the fics better than the show, and that's just wrong. I used to get all jazzed up about Thursday. I used to wait till 4 AM to get to watch the episode. Now I have it, and I wait till I have time to watch it. I don't watch it the second I get it. It's kinda sad, for me.
Bring back the thrill. The SamnDean. I mean, season 1 had its bad episodes, I know, but every week was a rush. I miss that. I really do.
Also, I miss the cliffies, but since they don't really deliver lately... *shrug*
I did mention this was a rant, right?

Happy Christmas.

Ooh, good. Someone I can ask. Wouldn't you want to see some Jewish lore on the show? I mean, so far, we've had Christian, Buddhist, Tibetan, Irish, Pagan and many others, but not so much Jewish. Except for the Hebrew letters they use on the demon traps that just... so, so funny!

[pinkphoenix1985.livejournal.com]

*g* yeah I would love to see more Jewish lore! heck, they even used Arabic lore! They have used some hebrew in the show (besides the DTs)

*is thinking*
Really? When? I think I'd remember that... Hmm...

[pinkphoenix1985.livejournal.com]

LOL dont worry about it ;) They only used a couple of words and the pronunciation was totally off. A friend had to point them out to me :D

[sams1ra.livejournal.com]

No, seriously, when?
Cuz the only thing I remember is the DT (meaningless letters), and the trap Dean used in Sin City, which spelled actual words, but I don't remember them saying stuff. Accept, I guess, Purim?

[pinkphoenix1985.livejournal.com]

well, yeah there was the Happy Purim, there was also the mazal tov that Dean said to Jo in No Exit as well as Sam saying Daver in Croaton. Daver in Hebrew means a insert plague. Also The DT isnt meaningless letters rather we dont mention it because it is really powerful words and stuff (and no I cant tell you why exactly *shrugs*)

[pinkphoenix1985.livejournal.com]

oops sorry misspelt insect *blush*

[sams1ra.livejournal.com]

Well, unless they changed Hebrew lately, these words are meaningless. (Eh, did I mention I speak Hebrew? hee)
But yeah, it's time for some Jewish lore. Bring it on! ;)

[pinkphoenix1985.livejournal.com]

I think that it is ancient hebrew...but obviously they had to change things- to make it more hollywood and such, but a DT does really exist and well it is used for other things... From what I understood- the real DT is something really dangerous since it conjures spirits, etc. LOL dont try it at home *g*
