This episode was a bit disappointing - although I was seriously creeped out by the haunted sex doll. Not because it was haunted, but because Dick #3 was talking to it like it was a person.

@Hofnarr: Oh! Bless you, kind soul! That is exactly what I needed.
I knew I liked you! Terry Pratchett has to be one of my all-time favorite authors. Recently I've been enjoying the audiobooks of some of Pratchett's City Watch books, read by Nigel Planer. I found them at the library, and I can honestly say that Planer reads them exactly how I heard them in my mind. If you ever have…
It's been refreshing, discussing "Supernaturall" with you - my friends either aren't into that kind of show or are too afraid to watch (my best friend has a hate/hate relationship with the horror genre). I have one or two epic rants about certain things as well - maybe we can trade them sometime! ;)
I was worried that this would be way too "cute", but Supernatural has surprised me in the past. I'm actually kind of excited for this episode.
Quit dumping garbage in the ocean. Also, if you could stop trapping us in your tuna nets, that would be great.
Aww, thanks! "Supernatural" should just hire me, I guess - I can help them make sense of it all. ;) Think about it - John Winchester as God's vessel would explain why Dean's special necklace didn't ever burn when he was with Chuck. It might even explain why Ash wasn't able to find John Winchester in Heaven - if God…
I never thought that Chuck was God, and I found the entire fifth season finale to be a little weird. I know that a lot of people thought that Cas might be God, and the writers answered that pretty definitely during the episode. To be honest, I was secretly hoping like hell that God would turn out to be some kind of…
If you're talking about "Hammer of the Gods", and I think you are, then I'm in complete agreement. That episode was a fail on many levels, first with almost all of the gods of other powerful mythologies going out like punks, and second with the Trickster/Loki/Gabriel biting it - he was a great character, and though I…
Perhaps things will make more sense if/when the show addresses what souls actually are - remember when Death told Dean that "it's all about the souls"? Right now, the understanding seems to be that a "soul" is a moral compass, rather than a person's consciousness or personality - but then why didn't Sam remember…
Thanks!
Someone please tell me how to make paragraphs with this new format! Help! Help! I'm unable to indent!
Wow, that was a fun episode. See what happens when you scratch the Wall, Sam? 1. So, the episode didn't really get into this, but exactly how does an Arache "turn" humans into other Arachnae? They mentioned "mates", and all of the female Arachne's victims were male, and all of Sherriff Arachne's victims were female.…
That made me LOL! Thanks.
I think they will - I certainly enjoyed them! There are only two, currently. They are "Johannes Cabal: Necromancer" and "Johannes Cabal: The Detective". I wish I could figure out how to friend you in this new io9 format - I'd love to let you know how my reading of the Felix Castor books go, and I'd also like to hear…
Thanks for the response, Hofnarr. I read the first Dresden book, "Storm Front" and found the writing style to be Dan Brown-esque - that was a perfect description. The plot seemed to be a little trite and not explored in a way that was very appealing. Thanks for the tip about the Castor books - the first one is "The…
I really wasn't a big fan of Dresden, either, and it kind of turned me off on the magical detective genre, even though I love the idea of it. Can you tell me how/why you enjoy Castor so much more? I'd be interested in picking it up.
I watched a few minutes of the episode last night, and the dialogue was making me gag. And then the "Fertilized" line came, and I nearly threw up. Is this show for real? Or is it like this on purpose?
Woohoo! The words "angelic hitman" fill my heart with joy! I can't wait for that episode.
@ Cimorene: That's a really interesting take on it, and one that I had not considered before. It definitely reinforces why I love the show - the things that bother me regarding its treatment of female characters that are either Evil Sluts (i.e. Lillith, Meg, Ruby, etc.) or Love Interests (Jess, Madison, Cassie, Lisa,…
