Sep. 11th, 2009 12:08 amAt around this hour tomorrow I would either be squeeing with glee, or head-desking in frustrations. I sometimes wish that I could watch SPN the way I did other shows. I mean, if I were to find an episode of say, CSI:NY boring/bad, I'd just shrug and forget about it the minute the story ends. But with SPN I'd be angstying about it for days if not for weeks!
I was talking about SPN episodes over the last 4 seasons with a friend the other day. Season One - love them all. Season 2 and 3 - there's one episode each that I don't like, and season 4? There're 4 episodes that I don't have any desire to re-watch whatsoever. But my love for SPN is still as strong as ever though I sometimes wish that I'm not so invested in the Winchester brothers. The heartache of Season 4 omg.
Anyway, going through season 4, these are my absolute favourites :
1. God, Are You There? It's Me, Dean Winchester. That scene where Sam and Dean and Bobby were fighting off those raised witnesses? That was the best. And we got to see Meg and Henricksen again!
2. In The Beginning. An awesome episode right from the moment Dean woke up on that bench, him meeting young John and looking over at young Mary and saying under his breath - Sammy, I'm going to hell. Again. Classic. And Mitch Pileggi. That was as close as we could get to actually getting Mulder and Scully on the show!
3. Monster Movie. I love the whole concept of the episode and I just can't get enough of it. And for some reasons I felt the connection between Sam and Dean that was sadly mostly missing in the other episodes.
4. Yellow Fever. One word. Jensen. And not for the first time I felt that Jensen would do really well in a comedic role. And who could ever forget that 'Eye of the Tiger' video clip!
5. On The Head Of A Pin. One of the most intense episodes with some of the most intense scenes. Dean's torture scene with Alastair. And his talk with Castiel at the end of the show. Perfect.
6. It's A Terrible Life. Not everyone's cup of tea, this episode, but I love it. The whole atmosphere, cheery and bright and colourful,and what's not to like about executive!Dean? A direct opposite to hunter!Dean in every way, and tech!Sam in that tight-fitting yellow tee, and Dean thinking that Sam was hitting on him! And The Ghostfacers teaching Sam and Dean about ghosthunting lol.
7. The Monster At The End Of This Book. I think I must have watched this episode like about a dozen times already. The slash out in the open, Sam and Dean as Sam'nDean's number one fans, them meeting Chuck and discussing about the books. I love everything about the episode. And apparently this is Misha Collin's favourite episode too!
Oh God, I really, really hope that I'll love the premier tomorrow!

Date: 2009-09-11 12:30 am (UTC)I think the number of episodes I don't care for in a season has remained pretty consistent all four seasons. But I must say that even in my least favorite episodes, there is always something good that I liked (maybe only a handful of minutes) and enjoy seeing again, even if the rest of the episode wasn't my cup of tea. Of season premieres, I'd say IMTOD was my favorite, followed by Lazarus Rising, then the pilot, and dead last is Magnificient Seven, which I liked the first 20 or so minutes of and strongly disliked the rest.
