Supernatural 5x16 and a Meme

[switch842]

First, the meme while I try to compose my thoughts on last night's Supernatural.

Pick five of your favorite shows, in no particular order, before you read the below questions, then answer them!

1. Stargate SG-1
2. Supernatural
3. White Collar
4. Leverage
5. Castle


01. Who's your favorite character in 2 (Supernatural)?
Seriously? I have to pick? Ugh... I guess we'll go with Dean. Though honestly, Dean, Sam and Castiel are all pretty much tied for first.

02. Who's your least favorite character in 1 (Stargate SG-1)?
If we're going with main cast, I'm gonna have to go with Sam. Early seasons, she wasn't bad. But TPTB totally Mary Sued her in the later years.

03. What's your favorite episode of 4 (Leverage)?
The Two Live Crew Job. It had such a good mix of stuff for everyone on the crew to do. Plus, WIL WHEATON!

04. What's your favorite season of 5 (Castle)?
Season 2 is totally kicking ass.

05. Who is your favorite ship in 3 (White Collar)?
Neal/Peter. :-D

06. Who is your anti-ship in 2 (Supernatural)?
I'm not sure what "anti-ship" means, but if it means an unpopular pairing, then I don't think I have one. I pretty much only ship Sam/Dean and Dean/Cas. *shrug*

07. How long have you watched 1 (Stargate SG-1)?
Since season 7 started on SciFi. Would have been watching sooner, but we did not have Showtime.

08. How did you become interested in 3 (White Collar)?
Saw the commercials on USA while watching Psych and Burn Notice. It looked interesting so I thought I'd tune in. And I LOVE IT!

09. Who's your favorite actor/actress in 4 (Leverage)?
Christian Kane. Eliot KICKS ASS. Literally.

10. Which do you prefer: Show 1 (Stargate SG-1), 2 (Supernatural), or 5 (Castle)?
Ooooo. I think I have to go Supernatural. *ducks* It's so much more epic that Stargate ever was.

11. Which show have you seen more episodes of: 1 (Stargate SG-1) or 3 (White Collar)?
Well, considering SG has 10 seasons and White Collar has only had 1, I'm gonna go with Stargate.

12. If you could be anyone from 4 (Leverage) who would you be?
Sophie. So I could flirt with Eliot. ;-)

13. How would you kill off your favorite character in 1 (Stargate SG-1)?
Well, considering Daniel has already died 9 times (I think that's the current count), I don't think I could kill him in some way he hasn't already been killed. Though, perhaps something pedestrian like a car accident would be a change.

14. Give a random quote from 1 (Stargate SG-1).
Jack: "Carter! I can see my house!"

15. Which character from 5 (Castle) would be a good guest star on 2 (Supernatural)?
Castle. Can you imagine him facing off with Dean? EPIC!

16. Would a 3 (White Collar)/4 (Leverage) crossover work?
Oh, totally. *does spell to keep fic plot bunnies away*

17. Pair 2 characters in 1 (Stargate SG-1) that would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple.
Carter/Davis. They both have that super professional military thing going that I think could work.

18. Has 5 (Castle) inspired you in any way?
Not really...

19. Overall, which show has a better cast: 2 (Supernatural) or 4 (Leverage)?
I'm probably going to surprise everyone by saying Leverage for this one. As awesome as Jared, Jensen, Misha et al are, with all the different characters the cast of Leverage has to play, they do it so well. And EVERY WEEK.

20. Which has better theme music: 3 (White Collar) or 5 (Castle)?
Well, Castle doesn't really have a theme song. So I'm gonna go with White Collar. But the Stargate theme song trumps all!



I liked that Sam and Dean got into heaven. After everything they've been through, it's nice to see that they can have a happy ending. Although Sam's heaven is a little weird. All his happy memories are of him leaving his family. Though, like he said, he has a very different view of family than what Dean does. He never had the "normal" home life that Dean did. Brief as it was...

Dean's memories, however? BROKE MY HEART. That one with Mary and the sandwich. Ugh. Jensen and Samantha have such great chemistry together. His reaction to her is always amazing.

Ash and Pamela are back! Nice to see them. Though Pam's speech to Dean was kinda weird. After what happened to her you'd think she'd be one of the last people on the angel's side.

But, we did learn from Ash that SAM AND DEAN ARE SOULMATES! No way around that one. Woot!! :-)

The Zachariah/Mary stuff? *shudder* Ick. DO.NOT.WANT.

And, so, yeah. WTF is up with God? He doesn't CARE? Seriously? WTF?

And poor Cas. He was so heartbroken. He'd had such faith up until that point. But to hear for sure that his Father doesn't care about what's going on? Man. That just...sucks...

I, too, am of the firm belief that Sam picked the amulet up out of the trash after Dean chucked it. When Dean did that? Heartbreak. Again. But Sam is the eternal optimist and he will make it right. Heaven and Hell be damned.

ok...I just have to say the soulmate thing, it doesn't have to be like LOVERS soulmate. It can be friends as soulmates who are meant to be friends. This is a topic I love btw. BUT knowing the writer who knows WHAT he means till someone pins him down on it.

[switch842.livejournal.com]

Oh, absolutely. Leaving aside the whole Wincest aspect of it, I've always believed those two are soulmates. I mean, when you look at what they do, how they were raised, they're really it for each other.

[ctrokj.livejournal.com]

*nods* I agree they were meant to be apart of each other's life. But then does that also mean that the boys were meant to apart of all the Hunters they knew and hung out with lives as well since they could go into Ash's "heaven" as well?

[switch842.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I don't think so. I think that was just Ash being awesome and knowing how to manipulate his environment. Perhaps because they are all hunters they do have certain things in common. But I do think it was Ash himself that allowed the Winchesters into his Heaven.

[ctrokj.livejournal.com]

Could be...ash was very good at figuring stuff out. Including learning to talk angel talk.

1. Icon Love. Mmm neck!shot and blood.

2. I liked that Sam and Dean got into heaven.
Multiple times even.

3. The Zachariah/Mary stuff? *shudder* Ick. DO.NOT.WANT.
I had the opposite reaction. I LOL'd 'til my life was threatened. /:

[switch842.livejournal.com]

I guess Dean has been to heaven over 100 times now after Mystery Spot. But, how long was he there if the day restarted as soon as he died? Maybe it was only the once after he stayed dead. Hmm....

[holytaxaccntnt.livejournal.com]

Well. I mean. Ash said they'd both been a couple of times.
Of course, he's hardly the most reliable source.

[switch842.livejournal.com]

True. I was just kind of thinking out loud. If you can do that when writing...

[holytaxaccntnt.livejournal.com]

I get what you mean, hun. Stream-of-consciousness.
