Thursday TV Update

Watched The Vampire Diaries in real time, which was fun.

And then I watched the beginning of Supernatural. A friend and I left after the first act to chat, and I had my roommate spoil me for the end, in which Jo and Ellen die. Both of them.

Oh, just FUCK YOU Supernatural. Fuck. You.

I don't how much sway the fandom has over the show (nor do I care to know anything about that particular fandom, as neither Wincest nor Dean/Castiel seem at all interesting), but I thought that Ellen and Jo had some really excellent scenes together. And this is coming from somehow who has absolutely no idea who they are, prior to this episode, so I didn't really have any background to go off of.

The problem with killing off Ellen and Jo, is that no matter how epic and affecting their scenes were, or how many great moments they had in this ONE episode, there is quite literally ONLY TWO reoccuring female characters who have no ended up dead.

Which would be one thing, if you didn't have Castiel getting tapped for 19 episodes this season and Bobby lasting for multiple seasons and Supernatural's general fail-tastic gender dynamics.

Fuck.

The browser just crashed after I typed a hella long comment.

Fuck it.

Just trust me, it's fail-tastic.

It doesn't deserve them.
