And I was wondering: you really don't like this season? I know a lot of people are dissapointed in it but I really like it so far. I know some episodes weren't that good (RSAM and Sin City didn't really do it for me) but the rest's just great for me. I like to have people's opinion on this season. :)
Unfortunately compared to the last Season at this point Season 3 is not really doing it for me. To be fair though I don`t like both the deal - hated it in the Season 2 Finale - and the Boy King storyline since I find storyline about terminally ill people dreadfully boring, especially when it`s their own fault (I had little to no sympathy for the people in Crossroad Blues), and I'm overdosed on Chosen One stories.
So for the overall themes of the Season I`m incredibly meh. If they can give Dean an actual active, plotty storyline from this that ends up about him and if Sam (or Dean) doesn`t end up some literal Anti-Christ figure maybe but so far I fear I`m out of luck.
The first two episodes I was majorly disappointed, with the first half of "Kids are alright" suffering from atrocious writing. Bad Day was funny but ultimately forgettable. Sin City was better but could have been really good if the town had been an actual Sin City. Bedtimes Stories was solid but Gaygate didn't need to be in it. RSAM is the lowpoint of all three Seasons for me. Fresh Blood could have been perfect if not for the Bela-parts that made no sense whatsoever. And the Christmas one had a few issues with terrible exposition but was otherwise good.
Thus all in all the last two episodes are the only ones I really care to rewatch much. After eight episodes in Season 2 the only two I did not like were "Simon Said" and "No Exit". Which makes it a ratio of 6 out of 8 and now it's 2 out of 8.
Sorry to be a downer but this Season has just not brought the squee to me. :/
