No Sin in the City
I was a little disappointed in Supernatural last week. The ep “Sin City” just didn’t live up to my expectations. I sorta felt the same way last week, as well, as you can see here.
But I’ve read some other reviews about Sin City and they seemed to really like it, so maybe I wasn’t paying good enough attention, but I just had the feeling that last weeks ep, which was neither scary nor all that interesting, was like a place holder. Like they had to do something to fill up the 44 minutes that week so they wrote that episode. It was like when a show has so much random stuff happening that they have to make an episode that’s mostly exposition, so that you, as the viewer, can get from where you are to where they want you to be in terms of the storyline.
I don’t like that. I’d rather they had less going on and didn’t waste an entire episode on nothing. But like I said, other people seemed to really enjoy it, so maybe I need to go back and watch it again to see if I missed something. Also, I don’t think a nun would scream like that just cause someone committed suicide in front of her. OK, that sounds crazy, but I’m serious. I just think that priests and nuns work with people and probably see and hear some pretty upsetting things. I think they just know how to deal better than that. But I guess it did make for a moment of excitement in what I thought was an otherwise dull episode.
I’m hoping for better things tonight with the episode “Bedtime Stories.”
