This is where things get interesting.

More Legend of the Seeker news: from this post here gives details about how to contact STARZ, since it seems the more people expressing their demands about wanting the show the more probable it'll become a surefire deal. Still not getting my hopes up just yet, but from the sound of things this definitely looks promising especially from the report the poster gave about talking to someone from the network there was so optimism there. *still crossing fingers*

In other news, M. Night Shyamalan continues to be a douchebag. Also, this is the first I've heard of him possibly having been close to directing the Harry Potter movies. I shudder to imagine how that would have turned out...

I still haven't read any spoilers whatsoever and I'd like to keep it that way so please don't tell me anything, but judging from people's reactions to what has been released I think I might take a break from Supernatural for a while? I don't know. I've just not been incredibly enthusiastic about anything with the sixth season, the fact that they even have a sixth season leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. This is what I dreaded would happen, actually. I want to be reassured that this is just an over-exaggeration, that it's not as bad as it seems to be, but I can't help but feel I'm going to be in disappointment and rage with whatever is being planned for it, and mostly because of Sera Gamble but that's another rant altogether. They really should have ended it properly with the Apocalypse, because right now I'm just kind of over the Sam and Dean melodramatics. I'd take an angel mythology spin-off over hearing the same-old Winchester angsty manpain anyday, to be brutally honest with you.

I'm not leaving fandom or anything, this is just how I'm feeling lately. It might change, it might not, only time will tell. I'm still sticking around, especially in the Dean/Castiel and Castiel/Misha Collins parts of fandom because, how can I not? I love you guys, sfm. ♥

This is half the reason why I've been going to other fandoms more recently, to kind of get my mind away from possible trainwreckage and onto new shiny toys. Which, btw, himhilien? Totally am downloading all of Avatar: The Last Airbender right now. I planned on doing that anyway since I am really liking the series, though since we no longer have OnDemand I can no longer see the random bubble trivia pop-ups. So I has a sad. :(

'Plus it also helped not just with Dean and Castiel's chemistry with each other, but also seeing the gradual development of Castiel's character over the course of the fourth season.'
I loved that too.

'You know, the WB had some pretty solid shows back in the day. I think Supernatural is kind of the replacement of what Buffy the Vampire Slayer did for the WB network, adding that paranormal element to their general tween/teen/reality shows or whatever else they have.'
I know. I still miss Angel the Series; I find it funny that that show was canceled when it had about five million viewers and Down O would KILL for those kind of numbers now.

Yeah, which would explain why she's kind of stretching and keeping Supernatural around despite it all. All about the money and the viewers, who cares about the story as long as more people watch your network!

Well, she has said before that she just doesn't 'get' Supernatural and it REALLY shows. If she runs Supernatural into the ground, at least I'll finally know how the Victoria Mars fans felt.

It kinda infuriates me that networks will do that. I'm definitely going to be blaming those pressures on the show on her if things do go downhill (along with Kripke who agreed to go further with it in the first place).

I hear you. I do wonder why Kripke decided to do that. He's talked forever about his five-year plan so to have him stretch it out for another season (at least) seems a little weird. Who knows maybe he really needed the money and didn't want to put all those people out of work.

That still doesn't make sense though, because had there been a specific five-year plan the people working on the show would've known that and searching for replacements when the show would be heading towards its end. Just like any other show. I just think it's the pressures Dawn O and the network placed on him, and he completely gave into it despite his better judgment, and all of that messed with how the fifth season was handled altogether.

That makes sense.
