The internetz are dead tonight [pokes] where is everyone?

Nin and I got through two of the three SPN eps we were behind on and wow! I am so loving this season. I've always enjoyed the show, but this season has really pulled me in. We haven't seen the last one, but hopefully by the weekend. As for Dean... we just want to squish him and comfort him [sniff] And I love Cas the more I see him.

Heh, I understand where you're coming from, and I've avoided an actor/actress's other projects because I'd hated a character they played in something else. Sometimes, I'd realize it was just that character, then others I'd realize it was actually the actor/actress who bugged me.

I love the idea they have with the angels, it's just not working for me on SPN. Beyond the execution, it's the whole notion of it. I'm always commenting it reminds me of the manga Angel Sanctuary, which was fantastic, but ... mmm. SPN's not quite to that level of writing genius.

As far as Jared, I'm still not entirely sure it was just the character. Though I like Sam more than I liked Dean in Gilmore Girls. But Dean Winchester just jumped out and grabbed me from the first eps I watched.

Sam and the demon blood is reminding me of Forever Knight and how mortals could become addicted to vampire blood.

There's angel magna? Have no exposure to magna other than the books/videos Nin reads and occasionally tells me about. The last angle related thing I watched was HEX, and I still need to watch the second season. And the Adept books by Katherine Kurtz deal with the Archangels.

Angel Sanctuary by Kaori Yuki (http://www.geocities.com/organic_angel/frames.html). It's one of the few female slanted manga titles I've read from beginning to end, it's the only one I loved. One of my favorite manga titles as well. I always recommend it. I'd esp. to you, since you're a fan of angel lore. 20 volumes long, all have been released in the US. I'm sure online scans exist out there, though.
