Bucky and Steve didn't have any scenes together until the very end of Endgame because even one scene one word one glance would've completely undermined the Steggy that was being forced into the narrative i know what's up

SPN S8 E2 “What’s Up Tiger Mommy?” Watchnotes
I LOVE MAMA TRAN AND AN PREEMPTIVELY SO ANGRY KNOWING SHE GETS FRIDGED
Also like, you could have exorcised Eunice, boys. And like, not killed an innocent woman.
Again, I love Mama Tran, as she sits there taking an anti-possession tattoo completely unflinchingly, holding her son’s hand.
“How’d you learn that reverse-exorcism?” “Oh I just said the verse backwards” SPN you cannot justify how dumb you are.
Wow, Dean like “hey, there was an excuse to be a murderous asshole, so I took it” Winchester.
I LOVE MRS. TRAN.
I LOVE HER.
Like that’s legit just going to be my notes from this episode, Dean’s a hypocritical asshole and Mrs. Tran is the best thing to happen to this show.
Crowley swooping in to confirm that.
Also why are the demons and pagan gods holding their weird art auction in what appears to be an ambient noise band venue? I’ve been in ambient noise band venues. This is what they look like.
DUDE. DEAN. JUST SAY CASTIEL BOUNCED ON YOU.
Benny’s the only one with a braincell, also I hate that they’re like “ooh Purgatory is so scary” and then it’s just normal SPN with the photo saturation turned down to 10%.
Man Jensen Ackles is showing his age this season.
Okay SPN someone holding up a bloody paper bag and bidding “5/8ths of a virgin” is delightfully fucked up.
OMG ANGELS AND DEMONS BIDDING THE FUCKING M O O N at an auction!!! what a beautifully stupid show.
MRS. TRAN YOU DESERVE A BETTER SHOW.
Knowing this episode has absolutely zero to do with tiger moms or abusive parenting and legitimately only got its title because Asian mothers were punchlines in 2012 is like. An unappealing factor.
That said Sam beating the shit out of someone with the Hammer of Thor is rad.
Kevin Tran telling the Winchesters to eat a dick is /chefkiss.
Dean: /MAKES THIS ABOUT HIMSELF, oh hi s2 dean behavior here
god this show is dumb.

BABYLON BERLIN - Ep 1 & 2 Notes
As foretold, I have started watching BABYLON BERLIN, Germany’s most expensive television show ever, in which a pocket-sized shellshocked Catholic Dale Cooper investigates a blackmail & pornography ring in Weimar Republic Berlin, hallefuckinlujah. Other featured characters include: a flapper girl burning the candle at both ends with like five freelance gigs variously aiding and breaking the law, and a Russian woman who performs slow baroque songs about dying in full suited drag, with moustache, while everyone in the dance club loses their minds. I’m losing my mind! This is my interwar period DREAMS.
N.b. If you join me in watching this (do it!), make sure you inform Netflix straight away that you would like the original German audio, as mine was about to give me English dubs and nein, danke. Oh also I say nein in my notes just, all the time. Very apologies.
NOTES:
Episode 1
typoooography
this is a pretty good conceit, hypnosis on the clearly PTSD-wracked protagonist — you can’t do anything in the decade after the First World War that isn’t terribly haunted by it, so make it present from the start
GOD that WWI imagery tho….hi
is it common for Christian churches to have menorahs, asking for a heathen
I just screamed quietly to myself. these credits!! it’s 2013 again in my whole soul!!
shit this tree burning along the train track! imagery!
I legit gasped aloud when the hijackers shot them after all, wow who am I I’ve never seen anything before
“Oh lord” I also say aloud at his little silver case of whatever ill-advised opiate they’ve probably given him
lol religious porn, yay
the director is still wearing this classy patterned scarf—an auteur
just push a wall of the set down to announce yourself, wonderful
oo what does bluebottle mean, I don’t think I’ve run into that slang before!
Tumblr media
yeah I’m already v fond of our gaunt tortured little inspector, obv-i-ous-ly
ahh the murmuration of starlings takes us to the next scene, lovely
oh hi girl, love your bob and your smudged makeup
Tumblr media
I assume they’re sisters, but the rest of the relationships in this flat are harder to figure
wow this dude has no empathy for the war-torn does he.
Lotte why did you pick this color of hat, it does not match anything in your life
yikes, I do not want that job
nice, nice, a plot-way to have someone describe to us our sharp trembly boy. a dogged, God-fearing Catholic sort apparently, good good.
Tumblr media
all these skinny kids in shabby interwar looks are gonna KILL me
his name is Gereon Rath, wow yeah
a mystery!
“Suggestive Therapy” hoo boy
this man is just trying to do his border job
fuuuuck yeah, hacking in to power lines, transmitting Morse code
[points at screen] Russians
whAT THE SHIT! frozen blocks of octopus being prepared while a weird LIVE THEREMIN GROUP performs in the corner? hi new favorite terrible restaurant!!!
now they’re literally doing In The Hall of the Mountain King in the distance, I’m so——yes
omg is Sandor in the octopus
what on earth this is so jaunty and weird! goood
Tumblr media
why, why do I have a memory of open elevators like this, I must have seen these very recently??
also I really like this stagey architectural fun being how they meet, these two who are clearly our two leads, living their independent lives until this point
just unemotionally divvying up pics of porn and murder, bless
Lotte: “I hope you’re with vice.” Gereon: “And I hope you’re with the homicide squad.” MEET CUTE, MEET CUTE
I hope “Moritz” is eventually revealed to be a dog
this bar feels tame for Weimar tbqh
wow it’s hard to pull off a grown man secretly sharing a magic trick with a little girl and have it not be creepy, but this isn’t! I mean not quite up to the magical Lee Pace and Catinca Untaru in The Fall levels, but what is
wow hey Gereon’s a regular dancin’ Donald O’Connor! a delightful surprise!
this hat omg
Episode 2
Tumblr media
honestly, this show looks good. this show is not ostentatiously expensive it’s just high quality. here’s just some of the teams that must be excellent to pull off good looking period shows: production design, location scouts, producers, carpenters, props dressing, costumes, hair and makeup, lighting, CINEMATOGRAPHY. early Davies Doctor Who, for instance, couldn’t afford all this and also its (still not expensive, clearly) CGI, which is why it looks like it does. but this show spent a ton of money because it wanted to look like HBO. Germany what’s up! you guys trying to get in the game? I love it.
okay let me try to comb out this plot in my head: dramatic bitch possible crime boss in the octopus restaurant and dubious mental health doctor wanted the pornographer to destroy a certain video, which he did not destroy, because he was trying to sell it and make a profit. Gereon Rath also knows about and wants this video, and came to Berlin from Cologne to get it, keeping this on the DL from the local police force. the current location of the video: UNKNOWN. everyone’s reasons for all this: UNKNOWN. well except pornographer, who was just trying to make a buck. anyway, odds that the video is political in nature: HIGH.
also haven’t mentioned yet: love you Tom Tykwer, even though your name is spelled impossibly
how long until I just have to look up how teeny tiny this actor is
the answer is right now, and he’s too European to be on celebheights.com! I do not believe 5’8” Google, nein, that’s how tall Tom Hardy is and even though this guy weighs but a whisper, is he really that far over 5’7”?
the film is kompromat isn’t it
oh no my crumbly biscuit can’t handle this!
Dutch angle! woozy tipping ones
don’t go on the FLOOR of a MEN’S BATHROOM my gal!
note to self to ask Dr. Jen about the way his PTSD is manifesting. update Jen says: tremors extremely common, tremors so extreme that they almost resemble a seizure not so much, but could be exacerbated by whatever drugs they have him on, which are likely to be giving him withdrawal symptoms too if he doesn’t take them for a while. update update: differing frequency of severe shaking in traumatized German solders versus their British counterparts, holy very fuck
“Am I wrong here or is it you?” incredible line, god who speaks German is this incredible in German too
oh tight his name is actually old and weird! Thank u for this. Sincerely, Non-German Audiences
Tumblr media
I love that she’s very glamorous and he looks like a Charles Dickens street urchin
hey that went fine with the boss’ boss actually. and yes we were right about the political blackmail.
my version of The Rocky Horror Picture Show is singing out “Spanish Fluuu!” in time with European characters after 1918
ohhh alright, it’s Catholics sticking together, here’s the bond
wait is this Alexey’s room? lol
Rabbit boy. Rabbit boy!
I’d have left Kaiser as Kaiser, instead of going with “Emperor” for the translation. pretty sure that still scans even in American, yeah?
yeah, now Alexey is definitely not going to be needing that room again. was the landlady counting on this??
Tumblr media
oh now here we go
holding out your hand to someone to dance, earnestly: “It has to be you.” GR9 LINE
“Ah, Saint Gereon From Cologne!” everyone loves my weird grim medieval boy with the shivers
…does he give the pharmacist confiscated porn in exchange for medication. yay I love Berlin
hah, punchline set-up from the previous episode!
aw that would have been a fantastic moment for a reveal that the blond twink is gay, but maybe next time
oh the dramatic octopus man is here!
!! the person who sold out Alexey is a female drag performer yes?!! same silhouette!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
god I love Weimar Berlin
Josephine Baker homages!
this is full tilt incredible. everyone a) knows this song, b) knows a coordinated DANCE
definitely we need to return to the world where acrobatic male dancing is what gets the ladies
wait…omg is this the Russian revolutionary with the theremin, did she sell out her own boy???
aw, Charlotte…sorry this is how you’re making money girl
shoot unless you enjoy it, because you’re a dom??
dang the second episode is really going for it!
Tumblr media
NEAT FROZEN DANCE MOMENT
aw man dude but now you’re gonna get like, so many diseases
TO BE CONT’D!

As much as I love the bi!plaid... where did it come from all of a sudden? Does Dean carry it around with him just in case bisexuality happens? Does every bunker and safe house have a stack of bi!plaid shirts?
Tumblr media
@elizabethrobertajones you are the clothes experts (or dare I say... clothpert), care to explain? :P

13.08 Watch Notes
I have a whole bunch of work to do for finals this semester, so I held back on watching this episode first thing in the morning, and made myself do schoolwork—this is my reward!...Plus lunch. Let’s see how it goes. I’m hopeful, even after last week’s episode. I really love Glynn’s work. The way she writes the boys, but Dean especially, breaks my heart every time. :’( Here we go!
 THEN
We get the recap of Ketch’s line “Did it ever occur to you that I might be one of the good guys?” and then Dean’s line, “Not even once.” And considering recent events, we have to go with Dean. Right? Ketch is in cohoots with Moe, knows Moe is keeping Cas, and hell, probably had orchestrated Cas’s capture in some manner.
Ketch, I can’t wait to see you get shoot in the face. Again.
 Wow. Cambridge sure looks a lot like New York.
I’m no expert, but I think a museum would have a lot more security than just one door to secure all those artifacts. Why aren’t the cabinets locked? Why am I overthinking a framing device? Who knows!
Okay. So they’re running errands for Moe. So this guy definitely knows about Cas then, right?
Lol…the barber is called “Bangshop”. I love Jerry Wanek.
DAMN IT DEAN YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO EAT THE PIE. EATING THE PIE IS SEALING THE DEAL.
I love dorky Dean
Luther. Lucifer. Get it? GET IT? I get it. I got you, Meredith.
If Sam were a demon, he just would’ve totally walked himself into that devil’s trap without even realizing it.
Ah. Dean’s getting nostalgic. I never got into the energy drink thing. One too many horror stories of classmates getting sent to the ER and needing their stomachs pump…shit is like battery acid. Anyway, this lady is giving me major Charlie-vibes. Anyone else? It’s mostly the shoes.
I went to high school with a kid like the demon-guy. Dressed and talked just like him. Can’t wait for him to die. The demon—not my peer.
I’m noticing a pattern about people calling the brothers “stupid” or “smart.” Dean gets offended when Stunt Demon calls Sam stupid, but Sam doesn’t when Dean is called stupid. Hmm…..
The room is bobby-trapped! Dean, now is the time to break out all that Indiana Jones knowledge!
Bye Grab! You won’t be missed!
(Also, in Dean’s defense, he was totally right to be freaking out about the contraptions in the Dragon Mouth. For all he knew, his hand was about to get chopped off. I’d be freaking out too!)
Arsenic, holy water, holy oil. Only arsenic would hurt them, but even then, it takes a lot of arsenic to kill a full grown person.
Aw. Sammy has a crush on Catherine Zeta Jones.
“Sorry Charlie,” she says. Charlie parallel finished and done.
Damn it Dean stay to the right of the yellow line!
BTW—it’s only like half a second, but you can totally see the stunt driver for the red truck. Does Jensen do all the stunt driving himself? Gotta give him props. I know he’s been doing it forever, but I’d be really nervous driving like that in the Impala, even on a supervised set. It is a real 67 Impala, right? It’s worth a pretty penny.
Sam you’re just making that fire bigger.
So…does Alice have a copy of the spell? Or was all this really for naught?
I guess it wasn’t all for naught…they saved Alice, and I guess her soul too, right? Since Bart’s dead, there her deal can’t be collected. And Dean isn’t depressed anymore, and Sam even addressed it! So there’s that.
Glynn kept up with her great character writing. Definitely more enjoyable than last week’s episode; though I must admit I’m not much of a fan of the stand-alone episodes. Still great for what it was, though. Biggest complaint really is how they staggered the commercials. There wasn’t any for like the first ten or fifteen minutes, but then there was a bunch at the end, and it was just…commercial break, a one or two minute scene, and then another commercial. That got annoying. But that’s on production, not Glynn.
Final Score 7/10.
And now back to working on homework. Ugh….

alright i finally managed to get a copy of the ep and i'm watching it on my smallass iphone screen which isn't ideal but i can't wait 3 days to get access to a bigger screen so here we go:
i need to know if that rainbow flare on buck was intentional
i might be looking too hard but that hand grabbing buck's throat and then eddie's junk could be foreshadowing for you know what, i mean who's to say?
oliver deserves a fucking oscar for his nervous smitten buck performance
tommy shaved for their date which is so old school i love it but i also miss the scruff and need to see its return asap
hints of Tommy Backstory, my beloved
the convo about renting out a home with marisol and eddie but including buck is making me think of how buck is possibly being 'rented out' to tommy in the narrative for now but later eddie will be the one to buy
i understand tommy ending their date early but WHAT HAPPENED to him picking up buck from his loft?? and don't tell me he ubered for a first date when we know he drives. although i get not wanting to drink and drive ig
also: tommy was meant to pick up buck at 8pm and now they've finished dinner so wtf is eddie and marisol doing starting their dinner at like 930pm is that an LA thing bc that's insane
'oldest italian restaurant' sign just makes me think of tommy and buck's age gap and i giggle and gasp
buck's reaction to being rejected is breaking my hearrrrt. tommy opened him up to his sexuality and buck was So Excited and now this guy is just dumping him?? who is he supposed to bounce his restless bisexual energy off now??
we're not even 10mins in so i have no idea what the bulk of this ep is gonna be about
oH YEAH THE GAY MOMS pls let them be happy
BUCK COMES OUT TO MADDIE ACCIDENTALLY like a true bisexual disaster
The Guy Thing is very much The Point buck, you sweet thick cinnamom scroll
buck is doubly an ally. he's a bially.
keep talking buck i am cackling you adorable baby bi
insane thing to have eddie post-sex with his nun gf after buck was gushing about tommy
it's okay buck, false starts with difficult convos happen, you'll get there
something something buck intending to come out to eddie and eddie explaining his sex problems all while eddie gets sweaty and swole
LIKE SEAMONKEYS! buck i adore you
buck wishes he could lend eddie a hand but he can't bc he's no homewrecker and bc eddie is quote unquote straight. not bc he himself is taken, bc the hot pilot dumped him and oh now i'm sad again :(
there's some buck+guilt [re:self worth] meta glanced over here that makes me wanna delve into some introspective reads
buck giving good advice is something that can be so personal
hen saving a rescue dog after it attacked the firefighter trying to save it as a parallel to their current foster child situation. it's just good storytelling. the dark stuff is getting hopeful
HANG OUT WITH THE BOYS eddie you don't know how perfect your words are
i really love the way they chose for buck to come out to eddie. trying to do it at a certain time didn't work for him, it was too daunting. but as soon as eddie mistook buck's date with tommy for something platonic? buck doesn't want to hide anymore. it really speaks to the human and especially the queer experience - that need to correct someone's misinterpretation (someone important to buck) of who you are.
GAY TOMMY CONFIRMED
supportive eddie and 'this doesn't change a thing between us'
buck finally getting to talk to his friend about getting dumped by a guy he was really hoping for more with
eddie's turn to give good advice to buck re:his dating life and we come full circle
buck's relief at eddie knowing and accepting him. the double-back for the hug. the comfort is all there.
i want to shower the wardrobe department in love for putting buck in that slutty blue 70s polo for his date within tommy and then the sky blue sweater and now this tight stripey number i am digging the vibes
buck hearing that he didn't screw things up with tommy, tommy just didn't want to pressure him bc the feels are mutual! and buck taking responsibility for his behaviour bc he's mature like that he's a good dude
i love lou but oliver literally glows - and i don't mean from the sunshine - he lights up every scene
the way buck gushed about tommy's confidence to maddie and now he's the confident one reassuring tommy that he wants this and that it won't be weird for tommy i am so proud of him
HOUSTON WE HAVE HAND HOLDING
sad my buddy chim was barely in this ep :(
WEDDING TEASER and we've got a Hangover situation and a missing groom omg
the writers are working their magic and we are reaping the rewards.

GK 1x08
holyshit what an ep. SO. MUCH. HAPPENED: 
Lincoln is the fucking head of the court of owls. 
i confess i did NOT see that coming given he came off as a smug clueless douche and the way he showed Harvey the coin and the fact the Talon attacked him; kudos to the writers and the dude's acting on this twist bc once it happened i was like, of course! makes sense! and yet i didn't see it coming. this is great storytelling. i want to be surprised. i want to be proven wrong in ways that make sense for the characters - Lincoln fits the court of owls leader role so well both in personality and surrounding plot. 
Lincoln also knows about Harvey fucking his wife which does not bode well for our man. 
i'm gonna theorise right now that Lincoln is responsible for the Two-Face attack, obvs. still undecided on whether it will be intentional (seems likely) or if Harvey tries to save Turner or Rebecca and ends up being collateral damage (this speaks more to a villainous outcome imho bc the attack comes while he's trying to be heroic) 
we got a glimpse of fugue!Harvey - triggered by the piano music courtesy of the court. 
seems like the court [re:Lincoln] has been using fugue!Harvey for nefarious means, and now that Lincoln knows Harvey is a homewrecker he's going to use fugue!Harvey to ruin Harvey  
fugue!Harvey was at the owls meeting. 
Harvey wakes up in an owl mask spattered with blood; we saw Lincoln stab Cressida so either Harvey was present in the woods or at least the party - seems more likely the amount of spatter came from the Talon being beheaded, and since Harvey has bloody hands maybe he helped move the body. I wonder of fugue!Harvey has killed anyone besides the mayor.
Turner has been taken by the court. 
what do they plan to do with him? test the electrum? that could be an interesting outcome 
shoutout to Stephanie's homelife breaking all our hearts. 
her mom is addicted to pain meds and her dad is in denial about what kind of help she needs and they both blame Steph, fuckmeup 
Turner/Duela friendship or maybe more? 
Duela wants to find Turner asap and screw the danger of it. it's nice to see her legit caring about someone bc while i love her snarky one-liners and overall persona she was a little detached from the rest of the gang for lack of emotional connection, so thankyou for that writers! 
we learn Duela's mom is a con artist still in prison. 
idk if it's Harley Quinn bc I know nothing about the comics but this mention makes me pretty confident we'll meet her mom at some point 
So! i have questions and theories: 
who ordered the Talon to attack Lincoln? 
was it Rebecca? this makes sense given the Talon didn't harm Harvey. but surely Lincoln would know she did it, and she would know that he knows, bc she would also be an owl. 
was it fugue!Harvey trying to take Lincoln out from the inside? this also makes sense given the Talon didn't harm Harvey. 
was it Lincoln? the Talon didn't kill him afterall, and the attack took place in Harvey's office as if to implicate him - but Lincoln didn't know about the affair at the time. 
fugue!Harvey is a court member. 
did he become a member of his own volition and the court discovered a way to trigger him? or did the court induct fugue!Harvey with a promise to let him out to play? 
this makes Lincoln coming to him with news of recieving a coin intriguing: was he testing to see if Harvey recognised owl stuff? 
it also makes Lincoln's comment about Harvey being a two-faced politician that much more delicious since he knows how true it is. 
Rebecca??? 
given that Lincoln is the leader(?) of the owls, surely Rebecca must be a member as well. 
i do wonder... is she playing a long-con with Harvey somehow? maybe she wants out of the court and her marriage and to be with Harvey, or maybe she wants fugue!Harvey with her all the time and they could both live forever courtesy of the court's electrum hunt? 
admittedly she is my least favorite character bc i find her boring and cliche, but that may also be a smokescreen hiding more interesting characteristics and plot yet to be revealed. 
Two-Face. 
Lincoln might use Harvey (not fugue!Harvey) as a test subject for the Electrum as revenge for sleeping with his wife; it risks Harvey becoming immortal but maybe the science isn't there yet so it's basically just torture and possibly death. BUT: things go haywire (maybe Turner rescues Harvey, maybe the machine shorts-out, mabye Harvey gets free) and we end up with scarred Harvey and the emergence of Two-Face - who also might be kind of immortal (not to the extent of the Talon but more indestructible than the average human). 
the 1x09 promo gives us more to go on: 
"so many things about your life suddenly make sense" 
spoken by Lincoln over footage of Turner and a memory of his parents(?). this goes with my theory that Turner's parents were also court members, or perhaps knew what the court was up to and sought out Bruce Wayne's help stop them, perhaps bc they knew Alan Wayne once betrayed the owls? 
Lincoln stabs/tortures Turner 
given what we learned about Electrum being meteorite material and how an old doctor (was it Lincoln?!) experimented on the city's poor people with it, perhaps Turner's ancestors were experimented on and now he holds the key to unlocking how to successfully administer Electrum? this would mean Turner may be unkillable, so i can't wait to see how that plays out if true! 
however: the Electrum procedure already worked on the Talon so why would they need Turner? well, bc the Talon seems to be a mindless servant whereas Turner has intellect and free will ie. he's a fucntioning independant human being which is what the court wants. 
it may also be that Lincoln is just trying to get the whereabouts of the batbrats bc they have the map to the Electrum 
Someone staggering down the hallway 
flashback of poisoned Bruce? there are bats, afterall (probably hallucinated but still apt) 
more likely it's Turner trying to escape Lincoln who is holding him hostage in Wayne manor, and the bats are real (they swarm Lincoln at one point) 
i'm sure i'll have more thoeries and thoughts on a rewatch and once i see what the rest of fans are saying, but this is what i'm musing on right now. and for all the twists that happened at the end of the ep i'm SO excited for next week!

Live watchnotes for War of the Sontarans below!
Dan is dressed for the weather bless him
The Doctor doesn’t know how to hold up her hands
!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why are the sontarans invading the Crimea
This music is very loud and pumping, it feels exactly like the soundtrack in the Season 24 episode I watched earlier
I love Mrs Seacole’s costume
Oh hi Vinder please tell us who you are
Vinder is in a videogame premise at the moment
PRIEST TRIANGLES
DAN DONT VANISH
YAZ DONT VANISH!!!!
Oh my goodness
Well that’s a turn of events
Oh a cellphone, how… normal
So he’s been returned to an alternate history version of his life
Sontarans are such bad shots, wow
Here’s the famous cookware I suppose
Yaz did NOT get returned to any version of her life
So Yaz wants to be the Doctor so badly she’s written it on her hand, eh? That’s… less subtle than most of this series has been so far
Oh hi Dan Starkey
Mrs Seacole is a great example of “does what the Doctor does except in her own world and better and she’s not a pathological wanderer so it actually works better”
Oh the Shadow Proclamation!
She’s the “sworn enemy of the Sontarans” but she doesn’t seem to have any strong feelings about them specifically, which I like. It’s not like with the Daleks or even the Cybermen. It’s not personal.
LOVE the Doctor self-identifying (however briefly) as “Mary Seacole’s assistant.” She’s arrogant and difficult a lot of the time but she does know when she’s dealing with someone who knows what they’re doing. And when she asks her to watch the encampment it’s because she’s specifically qualified to do it. The Doctor’s not great at having a colleague but I like it when they do
Wait did they just execute Dan Starkey
Oh Dan’s alternate timeline isn’t the same one the Doctor is in at the moment
Getting big Turn Left vibes from this
Didn’t Yaz quit the police
Finale prediction: Yaz and Vinder are going to leave together to work as a team of space trouble shooters
The planet of time
Is this just the Eye of Harmony?
“Time’s evil” no she just drives a hard bargain
Poor Dan is being thrown in the deep end
This Sontaran looks awful. I love it
He looks like a rotting turnip
Does she really speak for people right now? Something to think about later
“Not even your pitiful self”—is that a hint that another self is around with a different plan?? Jo Martin surprise appearance please??
The Charge of the Light Brigade with laser cannons. I suppose it had to be done sooner or later
Nice little bit of Venusian Aikido
Glad the Doctor isn’t in the Liverpool thread at the moment, she’s always been terrible about falling off of high things
If these guys aren’t Faction Paradox or something like Faction Paradox then I don’t know what they look like that for
This is postulating truly incredible stupidity on General Logan’s part. Not that that’s not believable
Why have the Sontarans got a jungle gym
You’ve GOT three fingers!
Mrs Seacole’s expression when the Doctor slingshots the Sontaran is <3<3<3
Are the Sontaran ships transtemporal??
Tempura Command, Dan I love you
He’s airdropping her the data lol
Also possible that these ladies around what definitely isn’t the eye of harmony have something to do with the Sisterhood of Karn?
Hahaaaaa Karvanista!
She’s got a pointy stick
I’m still just slightly giddy over the fact that I get to watch brand new Doctor Who once a week
Points to General Logan for not hitting on any women including the Doctor. I think it’s mainly because he’s frightened out of his mind but you know, it puts him in the top half of historical men we’ve met
This tunnel slide thing looks like the old Capaldi titles
Okay he’s dropped to the bottom half again
Although to be fair I’ve always thought Harriet Jones was fairly justified in doing more or less the same thing. But General, you’re no Harriet Jones
Did the TARDIS just lock her out so she could do her job or what
Let her in please old girl
Oh thank goodness
Now go find Yaz please
Yes good
I don’t like the goo and spiderwebs growing out of the tardis. I mean I like them as a plot point but they worry me
Oh nooooo they’ve got Yaz
I still know absolutely nothing about Vinder
Don’t snap, you’re already an evil purple man, we don’t need any more Thanos
Ok so I do not believe they are going to kill Yaz, and Vinder definitely not because he’s barely done anything yet, but !!!!!!

hi! just read your watchnotes for the jib cockles - good. stuff. - and i was wondering why you dont write more cockles? i would love to see your words shape the awesome scene of your theory about how 'a reunion kiss' was filmed after Cas returns from the empty. would love to hear 'jensen's' take on the whole shebang.
Anonymous said: also just wanted to point out the theory going around about Jensen's drop in good mood (which starts when Jared comes on but not coz of Jared but coz..) Misha straddling Jen gave him a chubby and he spends a significant time trying to will it down which explains all his weird body movements & akward chair-sitting thereafter. but its totally a testament to how much he genuinely appreciates Misha that M can make him smile/laugh again multiple times after all that awkward. poor J :c
“write more cockles” as in fic? or meta?
reasons i don’t write cockles fic: feels weird. i sometimes get all sniffly because of how badly i want misha to be my dad so... it’s just weird. feels invasive but also inaccurate. idk i’d rather stick to destiel, and sometimes have dean and cas influenced by misha and jensen’s personality traits instead.
reasons i don’t write more cockles meta: i’m fuckin tired, my dude. i’m so tired. everything is so much. plus i’m now about 3 years behind on mentally cataloguing every moment of their lives and being able to instantly reference body language from way back. which makes writing meta really hard because there’s huge gaps in my knowledge.
but that said, if i ever do come across something, and i have something to say, i say it :D
re: jensen’s boner OOOOOH HELLO. DO YOU HAVE LINKS. gifsets??? meta posts??? the video i watched barely showed them when they started rolling on the floor and it was over so soon. i want them links. please. yes. ouo

don't show me Steve watching Bucky turn to dust and seeking out Thanos to undo his loss and spending five years trying and failing to move on from his grief by running a support group for people who have lost loved ones (significant others) and jump at the chance to bring everyone (Bucky) back because it wasn't supposed to be the end of the line.. 
..and then show me Steve pining for Peggy like that's supposed to make sense.

SPN S4E5 “Monster Movie” Watchnotes - THE BOYS FIGHT DRACULA
The black-and-white movie episode! That’s done like an old-school movie for no apparent reason whatsoever! Who cares! it’s cute when SPN does whimsy!
“It’s about time the Winchesters got back to tackling straightforward monsters” you said it so I don’t have to, Dean.
This episode made me want a pretzel, and thankfully, my roommate made AMAZING pretzels, so my cravings have been satisfied.
��I came back from Hell without any scars or old injuries which means I’m a virgin again” is some interestingly bonkers logic, Dean. (I do like the detail that apparently his fingers are jacked and pained up from fistfights).
Sam: “This is stupid.” Narrator: “Sam really needs to say this more often.”
FINALLY A WOMAN ON THIS SHOW WHO CARRIES SOME FUCKING MACE.
You know that punching out Dracula has been on Dean’s wishlist since he was like six.
SPN, you are not allowed to dunk on the X-Files for being cheesy.
So once upon a time in Monster of the Week, Dan Sagittarius stumbled on a copy of Dracula that would have been very useful in speeding the plot along, but rather than using that clue we all just communally decided that Dan can’t fucking read. I am literally watching this play out in SPN right now with Dean’s global ignorance of the entire world of literature and of Bram Stoker being a driving plot point in why they haven’t solved the mystery yet. MOTW imitates SPN imitates MOTW imitates SPN.
Dean will always redeem himself to me when he starts digging into his “my self-esteem is terrible but if I save lives I can justify my right to breathe” crap, because man, that is the depression mood.
Sam, you’d better apologize profusely for nearly ripping this poor dude’s ear off when he’s just trying to play the Casio. It was a really tight arrangement! The man is clearly extremely talented!
This Dracula villain is amazing, this actor is just devouring the scenery, he looks like he’s having so much fun. Also mad props to the jaded pizza guy who’s just got “fuck my life” tattooed all over his entire attitude.
Does this episode’s plot make sense? ABSOLUTELY NOT. Is this episode fun anyway? ABSOLUTELY YES.
THIS EPISODE IS BANANAS.
Dracula does not have game. Dracula does not know how to date. All Dracula knows how to do is twerk, eat hot chip, and lie.
What the fuck is happening in this episode, also, what is the logic behind the shapeshifter mutants in this setting, like are mutants of all stripes a thing in SPN, is this a medical condition that other people know about, are there shapeshifter support groups, like what, spn, explain, what 
SAM, YOUR GUN SAFETY IS SO ATROCIOUS, YOUR GUN SAFETY MAKES ME INSANE, YOU DON’T JUST TUCK A LOADED FIREARM IN YOUR ARMPIT, god Sam’s gun safety is up there with “photocopy the journal” and “use your cell phones” as my biggest peeves in this show.
SPN needs to do more episodes that are just campy insanity from a production team that clearly just adores horror media and wants to geek out about monsters and fewer episodes about religion.
