You know, the more I think about it, the car Castiel is driving has to be product placement. How did he afford it, though? I know you can’t hotwire it in the only way the Winchesters seem to be able to on classic older models. And if he did steal it, it can be tracked off of a lot.
That product placement has created a plot mystery/hole that’s actually bugging the shit out of me.
I’m going to stick with the show because there are other good points about it that I support. But it sure does get tiresome to deal with all the crap that doesn’t need to be there. No show is perfect, of course, but it’s really disheartening to see how much clout 2 singular people are allowed to do when everyone else is telling them it’s bringing the whole narrative down.
I know I should agree, because there is no reason to bring him back, as you said, but I just couldn’t help but get excited. I had to pause it just to calm down. So my movie critic guy living in my head thinks it’s bad but my fangirl side is freaking out, possibly dying of a heart attack.
I will say this : regardless of my feelings and any ranting I do about anything on the show, I absolutely support people liking what they like. If this plot point makes you happy, then I’m perfectly happy for you because that’s someone getting pleasure out of it, and I love SPN, so when I can’t enjoy parts of it, I am glad that someone else does and can give it the squealing it deserves!
Well, buckle up and feel lucky you’ve got school to distract you from this mess! It will probably be better to take in lots of episodes at once so you don’t end up grinding your damn teeth for an entire week waiting to see what train wreck you see next.
ANYWAY, yes, it looks like they’re bringing Lucifer back. In a reveal at the end of this episode, which was probably supposed to be dramatic, but in reality made my dash explode with the gnashing of teeth, pulling of hair, and rending of garments.
Nick basically became a freaking serial killer and got so whiny about his love/hate relationship with murder, that Lucifer woke up in the Empty and then, fade to black.
Anyway, the next episode airs on my birthday next week, and I pray to Ye Olde God of Show Writing, Meredith Glynn to either sweep up some of the mess, or at least just ignore it until Yockey or Perez can handle it, since they’re used to mopping up after BL and their shitshow episodes.
The sitch is that Eugenie loves Lucifer and is married to the Decision Maker of the show, so she gets to have her way. And her “way” happens to be Lucifer. She’s his biggest (and only) advocate at this point, so instead of that arc reaching its best, natural conclusion, we get a dead horse brought back more than once to sadly be beaten to death again.
Dear BuckLemming. Please stop. Please. Just stop. If you really love Lucifer like your giant hard-on seems to indicate, then let him rest! He was at peace in the Empty, a peace he so richly earned and deserved, and now you’re dragging him back to make everyone suffer again? *Do you feel like a competent writing team yet?* Sincerely, SPN Fandom
This was a much kinder way of saying it, thank you. 😀
I deeply apologize for the wank, y’all. I’m just so sorely tired of seeing such bad writing ruin such good writing. I’ll never give up on the wonderful parts of SPN because I’m the last person in the world to let evil triumph over good, but I’d really prefer a whole season of solid episodes, which could easily happen if only BL were kicked out. But we’re having to flush part of the season down the toilet because two writers refuse to do what’s best for the show, and instead focus on their tired-ass lovechild of a dead story arc that wants nothing more than to die. And DID die. And then got brought back to do more damage.
Eugenie has personally advocated for bringing Lucifer back and she believes him to be a redeemable character so this is 100% true
And since she is married to Dude With Power Over the Show, she’ll get her damn way even if it literally ruins the whole show. Which it is. Which is sad because the show is fantastic, except for her and Brad’s episodes! That’s what pisses me off so much.
Also, wow, she’s turned Nick into a serial killer and that’s how he gets Lucifer back. How in the fuck is that redeemable?
ibelieveinthelittletreetopper:
Hold the freak up. Was that spell they used on Jack the same one Michael had been using to test monsters????
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT????
heck… was it? I’m not at home so I can’t rewind and check, but if it is, could Michael have maybe asked Sergei what he wanted? And now Sergei is doing Michael’s bidding?
OMG that makes so much sense why Dean was having these PTSD flashbacks! He was having them when they were talking about archangel grace and about Sergei!
That’s what I was thinking, and why I thought about Michael having gotten the spell from Sergei. Dean’s flashbacks when they talked about him, just like Nick when names familiar to Lucifer came up.
Nick is summoning the Terminator.
That is literally the only thing that would make me want to keep Nick on the show. 😀
However, I also need to say this.
