I was none too quiet about my general unhappiness that they were extending the show beyond the close of its natural arc, but darn if I haven't been enjoying this season. I may actually be enjoying it more than last season. So if they can keep up the current level of story-telling, I may be down with getting another season. I guess it depends on where they take this season's arcs, and how things resolve.<br /><br />Congrats to the guys for making the TV Guide cover! It's really nice to see the show get cover recognition on a major general circulation magazine. They join the ranks with other sci-fi/fantasy greats including Buffy, Star Trek, and X-Files (and others I'm sure I'm forgetting at the moment).Jess Lyndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165015932507376656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-5826818653665892972010-12-07T09:39:27.931-05:002010-12-07T09:39:27.931-05:00Don't know what you're talking about, Paul...Don't know what you're talking about, Paul.

I disa...Paul,<br /><br />who said anything about *gay* porn?<br /><br />I disagree with Harry on just one part: escapism. I think either all fiction is escapist or none is. Our boys may hunt demons, but as soon as you recognize they're talking about family relationships, it's not escaping, it's real life. Unless you have no family.<br /><br />Of course, some fiction is more grounded on our objective/physical reality than others, but that doesn't mean they *convey* and *discuss* reality better than science fiction. In fact, some (including me) would argue that, since sci-fi presents a heightened reality, certain subtleties are better presented, such as when you see things through a microscope.Gus Brunettinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-76191234232883845582010-12-07T05:06:45.115-05:002010-12-07T05:06:45.115-05:00Harry, too much information!

Jensen and Jared are superb actors and the plot-lines are like nothing else.<br /><br />I'm hoping this minor lift in the popularity stakes will help them secure a seventh season. Now we know there's life after Kripke, I don't see why the show can't continue for at least another season.Paul Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979646022056755322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-9372271708848263542010-12-07T03:50:40.904-05:002010-12-07T03:50:40.904-05:00If I just wanted to watch a show that stars goodlo...If I just wanted to watch a show that stars goodlooking guys, I would watch porn. Supernatural is amazing because those hunks can Act, the writing is often brilliant and the subject matter is escapist goldust. <br /><br />So I am guessing TV Guide is a really popular magazine in America then?

I just feel a tiny bit insulted when I think someone is saying that I, as a fan of the show, "really respond to" the actors' good looks... twice. It kind of dampens my joy at their win.<br /><br />I also noticed Ms. Birnbaum didn't look genuinely happy when she said Supernatural was the winner. Maybe she was pulling for Chuck. It only lost by 20,000 votes out of over 5 million. Yay for Chuck (which I also adore)!<br /><br />The main things I love about Supernatural is their constantly growing mythology and how they aren't afraid to push boundaries (*cough* apocalypse *cough*). I also love the comedy and the interaction between the characters. Some of my favorite quotes are from Supernatural. Yeah, it is way more than a bunch of pretty faces, and they really earned this win.<br /><br />Sorry for ranting!Heathernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-53779002246015501822010-12-06T20:49:27.999-05:002010-12-06T20:49:27.999-05:00Dimitri, is that a little dig about my obsession w...Dimitri, is that a little dig about my obsession with Jensen? :)Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-27903721090495631082010-12-06T20:43:48.972-05:002010-12-06T20:43:48.972-05:00Wait.
