This is how Captain Rex defends your staunchly unreasonable ass, when he'd probably

probably prefer to dump it in a ravine, because your staunchly unreasonable ass just got

just got eleven(11) of his men KILLED

hell NO he ain't gonna be gentle

Season 1, Episode 15: 8 Simple Rules for Dadding My Teenage Paeden

Favorite moment: Walter!!!

General thoughts:

The Taken intro parody is great. Also, great title. I wonder how much of their audience even knows or saw the show it is parodying. I watched 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter, but I think I'm with the older end of the audience.

Working things out with Erin is great. Love that she burned their books. Way to throw another wrench in the plot, Anthony.

Intro to the Deck of Many Things. First , it comes back with the Library, but won't come back full force for almost 30 episodes. This deck affects so many things later, it's a wonderful way to weave in a random element.

The whole side quest to get Paeden parents is very funny and gives us Walter! I love Walter as a character. Way to roll with what the party wants to do.

Pea-knuckle is such fun. Love the interactions between Paeden and Ron in this episode.

3 people robes now! Dun dun dun!

And now off to find Grant...

Supernatural Rewatch 2k23: Season 1 Episode 15 "The Benders"

Okay, I thiiiiiink I might know which episode this is and if it's the episode I'm thinking of, I'm gonna have a bad time. More under the cut because spoilers... I understand this show is now legally allowed to vote but I'm being kind.

I'm pretty sure this episode is the one with the fuckin' incest kids living in the walls and if so I'm Not Excited.

When do they finally ditch their dad's journal? Also how do I get a job just creating crazy people journals in shows, because I'm good at that shit.

Alright! Opening scene is in an actual town so this is NOT the creepy incest kids, yet. Which means I have zero clue what episode this is.

WHAT THE FUCK IS SQUELCHING? And bro why are you looking?

What possessed you to get on the ground my dude?

The synchronized hat removal is like. Why are you guys like this? Do you know why you keep getting mistaken as gay? It's the Flare. Sorry for the stereotype, but the theatrical flare of Dean when he's dressed up to play cop is too obvious.

This poor child has buck teeth.

Dean is a Nerd in his own way. Like Sam is a bookworm no-fun guy. But Dean is a nerd.

Sam was definitely an RA in college.

"Dad marked the area" bro okay sure

I love that they're having ghost talks in a biker bar.

Is Sammy about to get kidnapped by the squelch monster?

Oh for sure. Like go back inside dude, WHY ARE MEN LIKE THIS?

This is going to prey on my fear of getting my Achilles slashed isn't it?

Welp! Sammy is now gone. Called it!

This is a foggy as parking lot.

The music in this scene does not match the show. What's with the horns? Jaunty horns in this scene are weird.

Oh no, it's a woman sheriff - she's gonna die.

Love a cage! Very Criminal Minds.

Sammy that is welded rebar, doubt you're shaking your way out of it.

Ohhhh kicking now. Yes, that will break your cage, Sammy boy.

Is this monster just gonna be people? I wonder if it's just gonna be people. These are the worst.

It's gonna be people hunting people isn't it? Cannibals? I feel like Cannibals are a thing here.

Who is Ned Beatty?

"Psycho hillbilly rednecks" like, probably. I lived with the psycho hillbilly rednecks and yeah. Seems par for the course.

Ah, Ned Beatty is a deliverance reference. I had less than zero idea what deliverance was about before reading the wikipedia article. Glad I never watched that one, moving on.

"I ran your badge number" - Dean. Buddy, what are you doing? You stole the badge?

Except this kind-hearted lady is too good for this universe, too pure. Which is why she's gonna die.

Jenkins is absolutely death number one. How's he dying? Arrow? Dogs? Knife? Shotgun? I think arrow.

Okay seriously why does the music seem so weird this episode?

Where is the bear trap? It's coming. Tiger trap maybe?

Oh no, they're just gonna spear him to death? Okay... That was violent, but I expected more torture? Their human villains need some work.

Sheriff Linda Ronstadt has beautiful eyes.

She's like deffo dead in about 5 minutes huh? That makes me very sad. I like her. RIP to you Linda (I mean Kathleen apparently. You'll always be Linda to me)

Yeah great. Girl with leaves in her hair. This is promising.

DO NOT GO IN THE HOUSE - Oh man. Here it comes.

Why is this car so short? Dean's about to get kidnapped. I should do a kidnap count.

So far the kidnap count is 1 for Sam this episode.

And 1 for Linda aka Kathleen.

I really don't want Kathleen to die.

Oh Dean, you lovable moron. Why the flashlight?

Here's my question, why do I feel like I see Linda Ronstadt again? I'm sure I'll find out.

The snoopy music in this infiltrating the house scene is not a ~vibe~

I feel very good about my cannibal call from earlier.

The immediate turn around of the little girl disarming people is pretty fantastic in this episode.

Congrats to the foley artist for that thwack on Dean's head.

Dean should have a lot more scars, just in general.

Is Sam gonna use his mind powers?

Literally no clue how he got out of that one. What did he do? He threw the bracket? At what? At whomst?

Love that Sam pulled the ole switcheroo! Did a Winchester shoot anyone? Nope! Not this time! The bad guys shot each other. Therefore the Winchesters are still the good guys!

Linda Ronstandt is cold blooded! Love her. Very cop of her though.

The boys should go and all of you need at least 3 tetanus shots.

Death count is 2 - One civilian and one human bad guy.

Current total (on screen) Death Count is: 5

Kidnap count (just started) is currently 1 for Sam, 0 for Dean.

Bad Batch Finale (1/2) Spoilers

Yeah, no. I don't buy that Crosshair's chip had been taken out. I wouldn't be at all surprised if we find out the Empire lied and told him it was out when it wasn't, but for it to actually have been taken out? Crosshair has never been the most people-person type, but to actually have been following the Empire's wishes like a blind puppy of his own free will? No.

The first problem is why would the Empire want the chip to be taken out? The chip is the thing keeping the clones following orders, why would they waste the time and money needed for the process of getting the chips removed when they're planning to phase out all the clones anyways?

And if that actually was all Crosshair, it would narratively be kind of flat to reveal that with just Crosshair dramatically saying so. That's like, sixth-grade level writing. Or like a cheesy action flick from the 60's where the hero's best friend reveals at the end: "I am actually Dr. Evil and have been plotting against you this whole time!"

It would make more sense if Crosshair believes his chip had been taken out because the Empire lied to him. Or (and this is what I personally believe) Crosshair lied to Hunter because he recognized that, from Hunter's point of view, Hunter had the conversational high ground just on the basis of his chip being out and therefore capable of making his own decisions without chip influence. Crosshair saying that, then, was just a way of jumping to the same level and getting Hunter to take his word seriously. Why else was Crosshair so evasive when answering when his chip got taken out?
