Yeah, now it is. That's why I quit watching. It used to be about monsters and ghosts, before they started photocopying the christian bible to pad out scripts.

[(Anonymous)]

I assume you're exaggerating for effect and know that most of the angel/demon stuff, while tied to Judeo-Christian mythology, is not a direct copy of the bible.

Yeah, I like the part of the bible where this dude eats animal parts to gain animal superpowers and then another dude has to take a potion to be able to talk to animals because he has to talk to the dog witness.

Hee hee, I always love when they read that part in church. ;)

As someone who doesn't like Supernatural, I feel the need to defend it a bit here - Judeo-Christian mythology, the whole "angels" and "demons" thing is a significant part of the spiritual landscape of America.

Since the show is rooted in urban legends and Americana, it does make sense to include stuff like demons & angels & the Apocalypse.

"Judeo-Christian mythology, the whole "angels" and "demons" thing is a significant part of the spiritual landscape of America."


I disagree.

[fingalsanteater]

You would disagree that Judeo-Christian mythology is a large part the spiritual landscape of the US? Really?

[(Anonymous)]

Seriously. You can decide not to believe in it, but there's no denying that objectively it's a huge part of this country.

I agree with your disagreement

OBVIOUSLY IT'S REALLY THE JEWS RUNNING IT ALL AMIRITE

THANK YOU, FINALLY SOMEONE ACKNOWLEDGES ALL OUR HARD WORK.

I MEAN, JESUS. A SIMPLE THANK YOU WOULD SUFFICE. THIS COUNTRY IS FUCKING DIFFICULT TO KEEP GOING.

[darkmanifest]

True, and that's how the show started out, sampling bits and pieces of all kinds of myths and legends that are part of the supernatural in the U.S., including angels and demons. Then the Abrahamic stuff started pretty much bullying all the other myths out of priority, until watching the show became like being in a particularly imaginative but still quite biased in favor of scripture church service for me, instead of getting an indifferent view of Judeo-Christian myths where they're no more particularly significant than any other story of deities or spirits except for how long it took the brothers to beat them, and then we'd move on to a new source of myths for the main stories and big bads. But...never happened. And we're still in Sunday school, with a few lunch breaks for minor pagan shit between the major league biblical shit.

This, oh so fucking much. The Abrahamic just took over and snuffed out other mythologies for the most part when it came to the overall mytharcs. And that's why my interest faded. I found the other myths much more interesting.

At least Sleepy Hollow was upfront about incoporating Christian mythos. Instead of of waiting a couple of seasons and having it just take over the show.

Really? :\ I was thinking about getting into it, since it was recced recently. Guess I'll pass.

[(Anonymous)]

Ayrt

Yeah, really. While I was slightly disappointed, I don't mind it so much I'm rather fond of the characters and how they play off each other. Tbh I don't mind Christian mythos in media and I can enjoy different takes on it. I just hated dow it just overtook Supernatural.

[(Anonymous)]

If they'd stuck to the original premise, the show wouldn't have lasted this long. There's only so many times you can watch them gank a ghost.

[(Anonymous)]

Can I just say, I love the fact you used the supernatural terminology "gank" :)

And yeah, I agree with your point. While the actual apocalypse backstory didn't interest me as much, I actually like Castiel less as an angel and more as the comedic foil for both Sam and Dean.
