Oh, I can accept people who don't like the girls when they have a real argument for it, and most do. The writing is bad, the characterization is off, the acting is questionable ... whatever. There's just far too many people who can't vocalize their dislike without bringing in the 'shipping issues or how they don't think they're hot or ... I mean, give me a real reason -- like you have. I may not agree, but it's all personal preference.

Plus ... I don't know. I hate to sound snotty about the whole thing, but when did the bar get raised so high on this show? My expectations for the show have stayed fairly low -- just stay pretty and keep me entertained, imperfectly or not -- from the very beginning. If the plot is a little cheesy, if the dialogue is still off, if the guest stars are a little stiff, I'm still okay. Then I come online to squee and everybody's busting out the religious and mythological references and cinematography critiques and I'm sitting there all, "FIRE BAD, WINCHESTERS PRETTY," waiting for someone to has my squee. Which frankly has happened far more than I'd like the past few months considering I try never to do that on anyone else's LJ.

I mean, if I want to think deep thoughts about a show, this is not the one I do it for. (I have other shows for that, although mentioning them would probably ruin the whole anonymous thing in a heartbeat. :))

Different mousey.

I don't understand taking Supernatural seriously. It's like taking Hercules and the Moon Men seriously. Supernatural is supposed to be low-brow B-Movie popcorn fun, no real thought involved. It's ooooooozing with cheese and bad dialog and horrid plots (EVOL KILLER RACIST TRUCK) all begging to be MST3Ked to bits.

Most of its fans outside of LJ-land are guys, I've met very few girls who watch the show.

I know, right? I love this show and I've been in the fandom a long time, and I can remember when the same people who are overanalyzing it now were just as "FIRE BAD, WINCHESTERS PRETTY" as I still am.

Everyone I know offline who watches it is female, but it used to be that I avoided talking to them about it because they never really had anything any more thoughtful to say than, "That was scary and Sam is hot!" And now I cling to them and their lack of complication like crazy.

That's possibly why I like the new characters. I r bisexual mouse. "FIRE BAD, BELA AND DEAN PRETTY."

Isn't that the truth. It is not the show to write dissertations on. Sometimes when I look at people talking about all the DEEP OH SO complex things in the show. I'm like, what show are you guys watching? It can't be the one where they get ripped to pieces one scene and are perfect the next scene with not a hair out of place. Or the one where demons make threats over cellphones or make really bad jokes and one liners.

My main expectation for the show, and the only thing I kind of expected was my "dark" and "I try to be scary, but most of the time fail" show. And now it's just the same story every episode :/
