Television has been kinda epic lately, sometimes I feel like I can barely keep up before s'ploding into squeeful fits. I mean hell, I wrote my incredibly epic meta-review for SPN just hours before the series finale of BSG aired, and after both those epic shows I can't fathom how much they have destroyed my brain. This is what worthwhile television does to me, rendering me speechless and incoherent when it does something right. And I know there are a wide of reactions to both, but mine is quite simple at the moment: frakking epic.
During the airing of the finale, two BSG-related promos came out. One for the telemovie, The Plan and Caprica, the spin-off series. Looking forward to both.
Know what I loved about SPN last week? It was the equivalent episode to what "Downloaded" is to S2 BSG, in a lot of different ways. I should really do a separate meta regarding the comparisons and contrasts of Angels and Cylons because really, the similarities are uncanny. I WILL CONTINUE WITH ME PARALLELING I DON'T CARE IT IS APPARENT AND VITAL TO MY INTERESTS! AND SIX/CASTIEL = HAWTNESS, F'REALS.
I have nothing else, except that Castiel/Misha Collins is love. Trufax. ♥

Yes. 4.16 was definitely a huge turning point in the story, and it can only get more astronomical from here. Rip my heart out, why doncha!
Oh, totally. I am very excited and psyched to see where they're going from here, because this direction is keeping me interested. Very interested. I predicted something like this would happen, but seeing it actually happen in my show? It's just beyond awesome.
