Supernatural 3x07 Fresh Blood

Type your cut contents here.
I didn't enjoy it as much as other people might have, but I feel like that might have been because when I was watching I had a ton of other stuff on my mind. So I'll just think about the good, and figure that will make me feel a little better. The brotherly interaction was fantastic. I know a lot of people have been missing it this season (and truthfully, so have I, a bit at least), and this paid off with dividends. Sam's line 'I wish you would drop the show and be my brother again, 'cuz...just 'cuz' absolutely killed me dead. And the scene where Dean was teaching Sam to fix the Impala was a fantastic ending. It really underscored how Dean's not just Sam's big brother; he raised him, he's like his father. In spite of all the reckless behavior Dean's been engaged in throughout the season, teaching Sam about the car seemed like the one that showed Dean making peace with what will happen to him the most. It was sort of like passing the torch. <3

Oh, and Sam wrenching Gordan's head off with barbed wire? All kinds of  (gruesome) awesome. As I was watching it I couldn't help thinking 'holy shit, is the show really going there?'  Although throughout I kept worrying that Sam would turn into a vampire. I mean, blood was spurting everywhere, and Sam was already a little cut up from the fight. None of Gordan's blood got on Sam's cuts? I mean, the boys didn't even consider it. But I don't really want to deal with vampiric-Sammy so, I'm fine. And I'll fanwank it that Sam has Antichrist immunity if need be~_~

Vampires on this show continue to confuse me. I mean, last season Lenore showed us that vampires can fight their instinct and choose not to kill. So, Sam and Dean really didn't have to kill the Harmony-vampire at the beginning, did they? I mean, in a situation like that, why wouldn't they call Lenore and see if she can't be rehabilitated in some way? Of course, that's playing into the whole the-boys-are-one-step-away-from-serial-killers thing, which is kind of interesting in and of itself. As for evil-Gordan, I was interested that he seemed to know who he still was, and to have control, or at least awareness, of his actions. He didn't seem to have guilt. Now, I wouldn't expect him to feel bad for killing the newly-turned-vampire-girls, but the truck driver? His friend the Jesus-freak hunter? Did he really stop feeling guilt, or was it just overwhelmed by his hunger and need to Get Sam? He still seemed pretty adamant that he was going to kill himself after he killed Sam, although I feel pretty sure that if he had killed Sam it would've been one thing and then another, and he'd never have really killed himself. The show has a tendency to throw us these things about the shades of gray in the 'evil' people - vampires, the demon that Dean spoke to earlier this season - but never really develop them. Or maybe it's still coming, and they're going slow.

I still like Bella, even though pretty much everyone I know thinks I'm crazy. I thought she was pretty interesting that she totally sold the boys out, and was then like 'wait a minute...they're really upset? Seriously?' Sometimes I wonder just what goes on in her crazy-head.

Any my 'concentrate on the good' exercise has worked, and I feel pretty happy about SPN right now. Oh boys.
