I`ve seen a few remarks on how Season 3 so far blows Season 2 out of the water. Which for me, really, really not but I`d be curious to hear from others.

My tally:
Season 2: mindblowingly awesome - really good - quite good
Season 3: meh - so-so - pretty nice

What I've found most odd actually is how during the premiere it seemed like everyone was like "OMG! The was the most awesomest thing ever!!!! And you'd better not say otherwise!!!!"

But then last week it was like, "Oh that was so much better than last week's"(often in the same places where the week before it was the awesomest thing ever!!!!;)

And now this week I'm noticing alot of "Gee this finally feels like the show is back"--often again from the same people who wouldn't brook anyone saying anything the weeks before. LOL So it almost seems like maybe, perhaps some people wanted it to be good so badly that maybe some of them weren't really giving their honest impressions that something was off and they didn't enjoy it quite as much as they'd hoped. More what they wanted it to be than what it was, like being in denial. :)

My honest assessment?

Season 1: Awesome! It had some uneven moments here and there and few big goofs, but the character stuff was golden all the way around.

Season 2: It has some truly awesome moments, but almost no completely awesome episodes--few that I've ever watched more than once, no matter how much awesome angst was included.

Season 3: SUCKS so far. Really, really, really, really sucks, to the point where I almost can't stand Dean anymore, and there's very little about the show that I still want to watch.

I'm a brotherlove person and a Dean girl. There's been zero brotherlove this season. Even when the guys are together, they have zero chemistry any more. Dean had more chemistry with the thief guy in last night's episode than he has with Sam any more. I don't care about the reason for it. It makes the show boring to watch--or I even outright hate it when they have Dean acting like a pig or a complete jerk or as stupid or whatever else they've decided he is not.

So:

Season 1: Great. I loved it.

Season 2: Not as great, but the awesome moments overshadowed any problems.

Season 3: Sucks, but of course we've only seen three episodes, so it's hard to compare, really... I don't like the direction they're taking so far, though--not with anything really.

Hi, this is the first time I'm posting to your LJ, but I have been reading your posts for a while. :-)

I pretty much agree with aizjanika's overall take on the seasons:

Season 1 - totally loved. The episodes, I thought, were pretty consistent and, to me, overall more "fun" to watch. There was something good in almost every episode.

Season 2 - A lot of hills and valleys. I thought there were some really, really good episodes (e.g. "In My Time of Dying", "Nightshifter" and "What Is..."), but then also some really bad (to me) episodes (e.g. "Hunted" and "Heart")

Season 3 - it's like it's a different show. I did not enjoy episodes 1 or 2, but I did enjoy episode 3. I think, for Season 3 I'm going to enjoy the standalones, but not the mytharc eps.

I also really hope that Kripke and Gamble don't write too many episodes. Gamble is supposedly writing a mid-season ep with Cathryn Humphris, so maybe Humphris can help Gamble with those anvils that Gamble loves.

Okays, so I've poked around in here, now, and I gotta say, you think a lot like me. I need friends who think a lot like me, LOL. So, um, I'm a-gonna friend ya. Don't worry 'bout friending me back. I'm a little/lot in a low cycle of chronic depression, and I whine in there quite a bit, but if you don't mind that, then go right ahead.

*smish*
