Either uphill or downhill from here.
Apr. 26th, 2011 07:05 pmIt seems like Supernatural was renewed for a seventh season.
Meh, not unsurprising, however I'm not that excited or enthusiastic to be honest.
This season has been incredibly underwhelming and enraging for the most part, for reasons I've already expressed ad nausem. Show really needs to get their shit back together in order to impress me if they want a successful seventh season. I'd take Sera Gamble stepping down or being fired from showrunner position to be the first indicator of the show going in the right direction, please. I'd also take Kripke back in a heartbeat if that means no more shittiness that she's done, or Edlund if he's willing for the job. And better writers, as well. Just, a whole goddamn makeover would be nice. No more trainwrecks like it has been this entire season.

Yesterday Joss Whedon started filming The Avengers.
Plus, the Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog sequel is becoming a reality! Having it be three years since the first one came out, immediately becoming a hit sensation, they've become constructing songs for the second one. Of course this probably won't get started until after The Avengers gets finished, but still. More Dr. Horrible and more Joss Whedony goodness makes me happy, so yay!
The Guild is also shooting its fifth season.
Haven S2 teaser trailer! Very brief, but goddamn that freaky-looking clown....O_o
And finally, DEATHLY HALLOWS, PART 2 TRAILER PREMIERES TOMOROW!!!! \O/\O/\O/ MY FANGIRL HEART WILL SWELL WITH HAPPINESS AND MY EYES FILLED WITH EPIC TEARS.

I don't have expectations at this point that S7 will be a turnaround. Geez, there's enough material in S6 to MAKE two seasons, if they had done it right. But no, we get a ton of plots all smashed together this season, many not developed, or competing with others for attention.
