Oh my goodness, it has been a while. I was on a leave of blogging-absence for personal reasons I won’t bore you with, but just know it was out of my control, and I hereby pledge to recommence clogging up the interwebs with more fangirly goodness.
Starting with my boys! They were on hiatus almost as long as I was, but they returned to us this Thursday past with an all new episode of semi-epic Winchester proportions. In Sam, Interrupted, Sam and Dean infiltrate a mental hospital (is that the PC term? Doubtful.) by pretending they are crazies (definitely not PC), which turns out to be super easy for them, as they only need to explain their “real life” situation in order to get admitted. Apparently being hunters of the supernatural who accidentally cause the apocalypse is unbelievable to those in the medical profession. Pfft.
The episode definitely had it’s funny moments (in a word, “PUDDING!”), but I have to say, and this is a hard one for me, folks, I was just a teeny, tiny bit disappointed. Gasp! Perhaps it was only down to waiting so long for a new episode – and a hearty, “Grrr,” to the CW for that one, btw – so I was too psyched up and nothing could’ve met my expectations? Or maybe it was because Castiel was only in it for like 2.5 seconds, and frankly, that is just not enough Cas to make up for our cold, two-month abandonment. But, also, I thought the wraith was a little lack-lustre, and the back-story of ex-huter Martin Creaser was too hastily dealt with.
That isn’t to say it was a terrible episode, by any means. I loved getting a little peak into the psyches of our boys, even if Sam’s was damn scary, and Dean’s was more than a little sad. It just wasn’t one of the best. And after the brain-melting awesomefest that was the previous episode (5.10, Abandon All Hope), I had hoped for better. I will continue to do so for this week. I have little fear I should be disappointed again.
In other news, during my long silence I met many a splendid geek milestone: I am finally a multi-console gamer, as I received a PS3 for Christmas (Arkham Asylum is every bit as kick-ass as I thought it would be); I finally watched every aired episode of Lost (LOVED it!) and now anxiously await Season 6; I finally started Battlestar Galactica and I am, of course, enjoying it thoroughly; annnnnd I got the New Super Mario Bros for Wii, which is a fan-damn-tastic mix of nostalgic fun meets rage-inducing difficulty. I hope to get to all these exciting topics in the near future, but I am presently looking for a job, so that hunt takes precedence over my extracurricular fangirling. Sad face.
