my mum recognised the actor who plays the barmaid in “73 yards” from something so i looked it up & it's the same actor who played one of the main cannibals in countrycide & seeing as one of my first thoughts about ruby heading down into that town & towards the pub was a visceral reaction that bombarded me with flashbacks of jack, owen & gwen barricading themselves in a desolate pub in the swansea countryside to fend off the cannibals i have been laughing about this for the last 10 minutes.

one of my favourite aspects of supernatural that you very rarely see in paranormal shows is that sam and dean are already versed in the world they live in. there’s no sudden discovery of ghosts and demons and now they have to learn about them along with the audience; they are born into it and already know all about it. it allows the audience to follow their personal story instead of also trying to figure out this new world and its rules

the first season is full of knowledge we never see them learn; “w*ndigoes are in the minnesota woods or- or northern michigan. i’ve never even heard of one this far west.” […] “great. well then this [his gun] is useless.” (1x02), “you don’t break a curse. you get the hell out of its way.” (1x08), d: “it’s a god. a pagan god, anyway.” […] “the annual cycle of its killings? and the fact that the victims are always a man and a woman. like some kind of fertility right.” […] s: “the last meal. given to sacrificial victims. d: “yeah, i’m thinking a ritual sacrifice to appease some pagan god.” (1x11)

almost every episode in the first season is a monster they’ve faced before that they then explain to the audience in a way that should feel patronising; like it’s the same speech given over and over again but instead, the audience almost feels included in the knowledge. it’s stated with such an innate confidence and comfort in said knowledge that it feels like we already knew it too; “spirits and demons don't have to unlock doors. if they want inside, they just go through the walls.” […] “the claws, the speed that it moves; could be a skinwalker, maybe a black dog.” (1x02), “it's biblical numerology. you know noah's ark, it rained for forty days. the number means death.” (1x04), “no no no, not the reaper, a reaper. there's reaper lore in pretty much every culture on earth, it goes by 100 different names.” […] “you said it yourself that the clock stopped, right? reapers stop time. and you can only see 'em when they're coming at you which is why i could see it and you couldn't.” (1x12)

they already know and, at least in the first season, already have what they need to kill whatever they’re hunting; already know to salt and burn bones for spirits, fire for a w*ndigo, exorcisms for demons, a silver bullet to the heart for shapeshifters. there’s only three times in the entire first season that they run into something new to them; 1x14 when sam gets his first vision that leads him to another psychic, 1x16 when dean calls caleb for help on the sigil he put together and he tells him about daevas, and 1x20 when they find out vampires are real- and they only don’t know that bc john thought they were hunted to extinction and not worth mentioning

(there’s also technically two half instances if you count one of them knowing something the other doesn’t - sam figuring out the tulpa in 1x17 and dean already knowing about the shtriga in 1x18 - but those still rely on sam and dean having prior knowledge)

even when they’re uncertain about facing something, it’s not bc they don’t know what it is; it’s precisely bc they know what it is and acknowledge that it’ll be a difficult hunt (“i don't know, man. this isn't our normal gig. i mean, demons, they don't want anything, just death and destruction for its own sake. this is big. and i wish dad was here.” 1x04)

so much of the tension in paranormal shows typically comes from the main character(s) not knowing what is happening to them/the people around them and having to find out how to resolve it. supernatural is unique in that it operates more like a police procedural. the tension comes from solving the clues and identifying patterns to figure out who (what) the killer is and intercepting before they can take another victim

it’s such a different tone to go for when compared to other shows that came both before, during, and after its run. it sets sam and dean on even footing with each other since they both have the same knowledge going in, and it puts them in a place of authority usually reserved for an outside character

the shows i compare spn to most is charmed, buffy and teen wolf; every main character in those shows are brought into the paranormal world knowing nothing, putting them on the same level as the audience, and they have their mc interact with others already knowledgeable about that world in order to overcome their problem/monster of the week. the audience organically learns about this new world as the characters learn about it. it’s a sound writing strategy that prevents “as we already know”-style exposition but something that complicates it is if your world building isn’t unique or intriguing enough, this slow introduction can become boring

we’ve seen shows like these before; sitting through the same tropes of characters learning to use their powers, struggling with no longer feeling normal/relating to the regular world around them, and not knowing how much they can trust the people already involved in this new world gets repetitive. all three shows eventually reach the same level of comfort with their new world that spn starts with but if the characters aren’t enough to draw you in, you can end up dropping it before they reach that point (and often, before the overarching plot can really kick in and evolve the show beyond the villain of the week format)

it’s the superhero origin movie in tv format; dragged out and overplayed. dropping the audience into an established world of course comes with its own problems but you also have the benefit of pre-existing established character dynamics that let the audience slot in like they’ve always been there instead of just getting to know all the characters while the characters also get to know each other

sam and dean already knowing about the supernatural lets the audience immediately get to the core of the story; the conflict between sam and dean, the search for their father, and the mystery of what killed their mother

Okay, after seeing so many cool gifs and art from Dead Boy Detectives from my tumblr mutuals, I gave the show a chance.

I watched it and oh my god it's awesome and I love it so much.

Then I go on tumblr to look into fandom and find out that Netflix canceled it... WHY?!

If I understand correctly, it wasn't unsuccessful, maybe less than expected, but still a lot of people watched it. The ratings from critics and audiences are very good. And they had already ordered season 2 and it is completely written.

I know everyone has different tastes, but seriously, they make weird reality shows with questionable content or that weird Gwyneth Paltrow show that spouts pseudo-scientific nonsense that is actually dangerous and just advertising for her company.

And didn't Netflix recently announce how much money they've made from new subscriptions since they stopped the sharing?

Seriously, I hate this new throwaway culture of streaming services so much...

Everyone's Color Coded!

I'll be here for 24 episodes reporting on the colors in Perfect 10 Liners since my BTS investigation when filming was happening proved correct and I'm getting more than just six color-coded boys in love because EVERYONE IS COLOR CODED!

Wine and Fai are Lapid Lads (two Blue Boys, one light and one dark)

Yotha and Gun are a Black Brooder and a Green Guy.

And Arc and Arm are a Red Rascal and Yellow Yal.

The first episode focused on their fiery beginning.

Because when a passionate and aggressive Red Rascal falls in love

Especially with a cheerful and outgoing Yellow Yal,

There is bound to be an explosion.

So, of course, Arc would give Arm his color the very first time they met in person and tell him to keep it.

But this post is about their friends like Arc's best friend Warm who is being played by the prettiest babygirl Fluke Gawin!

Because they are color coded!

ALL OF THEM!

So I'll start with Arm's friends first:

Sand is a Blue Boy.

Pipo (Poh) is a Green Guy.

And even in their school uniforms, their bags are where they carry their color.

Now for Arc's friends:

Warm is, ironically, a Blue Boy, which is a good balance to Arc's hot-headedness.

Then we have Cop and Pond.

Cop is a Purple Person and Pond is an Orange Oddity.

And I like that Pond is already wearing some blue since he'll probably be with Blue Boy Sand (if they aren't already together).

But I'm very impressed how well color-coded each boy is and the lengths the show has gone so we can see the colors, like even at the card table, Warm's drink was blue and Pond's was orange.

However, I'm unsure what Pun and Jet's colors are yet. I feel as the elders of the group, they might end up being neutral, but I want them to be pink and blue.

But I have 23 more episodes to figure it out, so I'm in no rush.
