I don't get that either. I mean, if you love a show, and start to watch it, who's changing the channel in the MIDDLE of the episode?
I mean, look away for a minute or something or something if you really can't stand the characters but please leave your tv on the CW to get the ratings going! __________________

But come to think of it, not everyone is as dedicated as all of us in here. So it kinda makes sense, too. I mean, maybe, if I'm not this addicted to SPN, and I like Lost, too - why not change channel when my least fave character is on and watch a much more interesting scene on the other station? Saves me the hassle right?

You know what the most frustrating part is? That I can't do ANYTHING about it because I live in Europe and only the US ratings count. I can only HOPE AND PRAY the US viewers watch SPN and the ratings are good. __________________

I'm in the same boat Eve. ...Canadian ratings for SPN are decent but that doesn't really matter does it.

Okay thoughts, I'm really at a loss for coherent words I really like this episode and very well acted by Jim, Jared and especially Jensen. Jensen totally rocked this episode, esp the evil!Dean-Dean confrontation, that was awesome I'm just so sad regardng the lowest ratings for the season, seriously, wtf?
First, Bobby, it was interesting to see the reason behind it all, and I guess I'm not that surprised that he had a loved one die on him, so sad that it was his wife and that he killed her because he didn't know how to deal with posessions then Bobby is such a father figure to the boys, esp to Dean, and their scenes together is just Sam/Bela, umm.. I don't know what to say. I love Sam though, he was freaking hilarious and his reactions and he was drooling happily in his sleep, awesome! I honestly sort of blocked her out and focused on Sam And Bela, I don't know, I'm really, really getting tired of her being a bitch storyline, I hope they do give her storyline more purpose on this show, rather than be annoying. And I really hate her for stealing the Colt! and Dean! Where do I start? Cranky Dean is awesomely hilarious Dean always definitely needs his sleep And finally, finally, Dean admitting to himself and to Sam that he doesn't want to die and to go to Hell, is just But the best and creepiest scene of all, the confrontation. OMG, that scene was awesome and I can't even tell you guys how good Jensen was in that scene! I love that he's finally voicing out his feelings about John, the resentment and that he's not just some perfect little soldier. I can't even type all the things I loved about that scene, seriously __________________

And as for the ratings drop, personally, I wonder if it could be, at least in part, contributed to the fact that Supernatural is becoming more and more reliant on the backstory behind it and episodes are becoming less and less stand alone. Now, that doesn't really bother me much, but I did find myself watching season one yesterday and kind of missing all the awesome spirits and monsters they used to go up against... I mean I've been trying to recruit some new fans this season, but I find them just getting confused. They like it, or at least they think they would, but they have trouble following it, because so much is dedicated to that running storyline... __________________

Yep and it seems that when the strike end they're going to be shooting some more episodes, they will be focused on the mythology as well...that's what Jared said at fangoria, and I think I read somewhere that Kripke confirmed that.
I also love stand-alone monster-of-the-week episodes. __________________

the strike is finally over, and as much as i LOVE this season and how the episodes are a part of the big story, i hope they have at least some episodes where they just drive across country and kill some evil spirits!

And I'm just gonna stop now, 'cause I don't even know if I'm making sense anymore. I think I fried my brain with Medical Anthropology and Literary Sub-Genres today... So I apologize if that was completely nonsensical... Oh, and your icon? Love it! __________________

Lissa In that sense we are actually on the same page. Yeah, I do miss all the other basic demons/ghouls/ghosts etc from season 1. But I do love the running storylines. I actually am one of the few who are liking the big plot that S3 is heading (or I might be wrong). You're a Lit major? I was a graduate of Journalism. Now, I see why we both love to see the show more critical. I don't like shows which just gives you everything you predict, I like depths, complexity. Same goes to the characters. If they don't grow, if they just continue to be who they were like seasons ago, they would bore me to death. I know a character from a different show that's like this, but I won't say anything.
But yeah, you do make sense. I get what you mean... Oh my icon... it is thank you. __________________

Gay and Lissa great insights, and Gay that was a perfect example of why PPL would change the channel

Ruby I can tolerate since her story line fits in with the show, I have never turned the channel nor thought of it when she was on, but Bela I still don’t hear nor see any valid reasons for her being on the show, I have no problem with her being a hardass, but I need a point to it, if she is all this greatness then let us see it and stop with the BS thats pushing us out the door. __________________

I personally love the show just as much this season as I did the previous 2. I'm loving the big overall running storyline. I think we've gotten alot of new depths and layers to the guys and to the storyline which I love.
I'm not a huge fan of Ruby or Bela to be honest, but I don't think they need to be kicked off the show either. Yes, I could watch just Sam/Dean all day long and be happy, but even with all their moving around I think it's realistic to have characters (whether I like them or not) that are involved with them for a period of time. The show is still about the brothers. That is the show and that is the heart. I don't think Ruby or Bela have taken up some insane amount of screen time and made the show any less about that. But, that's just me. The whole dreamwalking theme in this episode was pretty cool. I really enjoyed it. Though not every part of it totally worked for me or was interesting. But, overall, thumbs up because we definitely got a couple of the best scenes in the series ever. Dean vs Dean: Hands down the best scene in the ep. Just wow! Talk about intense and honest and raw and full of insight. Jensen once again blew me away. I'm still kind of digesting everything that was said so I don't have any more comments for now. Sam's dream and then reaction to Bela when she showed up at their room was freaking hilarious. And of course Dean's comments when Sam woke from his dream. Brad Pitt. Bobby: It was great getting some info. on his past. So sad. Bobby/Dean Bela stealing the colt Dean admitting he doesn't want to die and go to hell. Gah killed me. Loved him saying it out loud and to Sam. But, then the demon Dean flash again. I'm so curious as to where the show is going with all of this. __________________
