The Winchesters

[hells_half_acre]

I gotta say that it's pretty nostalgic to see my timeline freak out over the Supernatural universe again.

I don't have a means to watch the show, but I have to admit that I find myself more curious than I thought I would be. And from the promo I've seen leading up to it (and the people behind it), I actually think there are a characters that I'd possibly fall in love with and that the show might be able to draw me in the way Supernatural did with good characters and relationships.

As you all know, I still haven't done my S15 rewatch or clothing catalogue. It was easy to put them off when we were in the grips of a pandemic, and while I went through a sort of rollercoaster of employment shenanigans over the past 2.5 years or so. While all that is happening though, you also fall out of routines and it's hard to get back into them. In truth, I don't actually watch much TV anymore. My new way of watching things is either a)forcibly being shown something while I'm at my friends house, unable to say no, because my friends don't know how to NOT watch TV and it's just easier to go along with it. b)Watching one or two episodes of some reality show or easy low-stakes rom-com show, while I knit - something that I can look away from and don't have to follow to closely.

Anyway, if anyone is still reading this here LJ in the year 2022, please let me know what you thought of the Winchesters in the comments! Remember that positives and negatives should balance! :)

Hi, hun!

I haven't watched it yet either, but I recorded it and intend to. I don't watch much TV anymore either and I've been waffling about wanting to start (potentially) watching something new. I guess I'm with you in wanting to hear about it before I take the plunge LOL

Good luck with post-pandemic life (if there is such a thing) and I hope you'll get around to feeling inspired to finish off the rewatch/clothing catalogue-- I for one am still interested.

*hug*

Thanks! I WILL finish the rewatch/clothing catalogue eventually - it's on my list of things to do, it just hasn't come up in my random list-item selector-tool for a few months... so yeah, it might be a very slow process in finishing it, but it WILL get finished.

It's definitely nice to hear some good things about the show reminding them of early SPN. So I'm sure I'll check it out eventually - I'm just sort of in no rush to. Like the rewatch/clothing catalogue, it will probably happen very slowly over a long period of time.

*hugs back*

I haven't watched it either, but I intend to. After season 5 everything is fanon, not cannon to me, so I'll give it a try. Aaaand I miss badly SPN world. I trust Jensen, too. People on Twitter say that the Pilot was good and worth watching, if it helps

[hells_half_acre]

Exactly! It's the same with me - everything post S5 is just authorized fanfiction. I definitely trust Jensen and Robbie to write me some good fanfiction, so I'm willing to check it out. It's good to hear that people are liking the pilot!
