Just a quickie

Dropping by to say that I will be answering the comments I've gotten for the character meme. Thanks to those who have already given me some very interesting characters to think about and if anyone wants to add to the list, feel free.

I've just started back at work after 5 weeks off (annual leave) and I was pretty exhausted, so did nothing much but sleep and watch SPN today. But I will get on to them tomorrow.

Speaking of show: I was incredibly bored with it on first viewing but that may have been because of how tired I was, could barely keep my eyes open. Have re-watched it after a very refreshing 10 hours sleep, and while it won't ever be a favourite, it wasn't nearly as bad as I first thought. There are still things that annoyed me (Rowena) but there are also bits that I really liked (pretty much all Sam-related). Planning to do a more detailed reaction post tomorrow but it's off to work I must go now.

Me, too. I didn't think I could dislike a character as much as I do Metatron but Rowena is right down there with him. And, as with Metatron, it's a combination of both the character and actor. I think both are so overplayed that it's ridiculous. They remind me of cartoon villains.

I really hope both are killed off by the end of the season and NEVER, EVER return.

For me, I think it's more Metatron's actions and his attitude toward them that made me hate him so much. He's just so snide and conceited. I want someone to smack the smile off his face. Which could all be connected to overacting. There's nothing left to make him a sympathetic character, he's just evil for the sake of being evil. I can't stand villains like that. Rowena isn't much better in that regard. Death to both characters would give me a great sense of satisfaction.
