Supernatural...on HBO?

Feb 22, 2008 19:16

I swear to god, one day soon, I'll post chapter four of the fic, but in the meantime (seriously, I'm working on it), IN THE MEANTIME, I have a diversion (don't I always? I'm like the pusher in the high school parking lot). I was having a discussion with catdancerz about what Supernatural would look like if it was an HBO product instead of a CW one, and we ( Read more... )

meme, spn

Yes, I'd settle for HBO for the more cursing as well. And plus, "bitch" and "whore" wouldn't be thrown as much because they'd be able to use a larger selection of curse words. Although I'd hope the writers would keep away from c-word.

Although I'm kinda glad they're not on HBO because I wouldn't want to see like, YED-in-John rape Dean or Meg-in-Sam rape and kill Jo, like some speculated could happen if SPN was on another network.

But ANYWAY. Um, I guess if SPN was on "The Learning Channel" the Trading Spaces people would come in and a) re-build the roadhouse and then paint it some soothing beige and red color with lots of plants in the corners, to give the hunters a relaxed low-pressure atmosphere after a long's day's hunt.

(Also, I'm very glad you posted today because I wanted to share this video of why " Celine Dion is Amazing. And here I thought her portrayal in "Cirque de Celine" was somewhat exaggerated!)

I love it!

Ellen would hate it - but hey, if the TV folk wanted to foot the bill, they could do whatever they wanted. :)

Supernaturally Scrumptious: On the Food Network! grrli February 23 2008, 01:23:05 UTC

(Or whatever that one cable channel is called that has all the cooks at their trade. This is not specifically what you asked for, but I couldn't help it ( ... )

Re: Supernaturally Scrumptious: On the Food Network! big_pink February 23 2008, 01:25:35 UTC

he would totally give my current domestic tv boyfriend, Jamie Oliver, a run for his money.

Actually, them cooking together? Would be interesting too! And afterwards, they could play with toy race cars together. Or something.

Re: Supernaturally Scrumptious: On the Food Network! grrli February 23 2008, 01:28:33 UTC

They could totally grease monkey, because in my food network kitchen, there's a lift for engine blocks and the car is just behind the refrigerator unit.

Re: Supernaturally Scrumptious: On the Food Network! big_pink February 23 2008, 01:53:52 UTC

Oh, YES, a cooking and car repair show!

I'd be thrilled to see Teenchesters on Nickelodeon (sandwiched between Drake & Josh and Spongebob, perhaps) as it would be adorable to see what happens when Dean has to break a date with the cute drummer in the best rock band in the new town they're living in, so he can help Dad and his little brother deal with a poltergeist that's making a mess of the theater where the talent contest is happening that night! Or (plot gacked from an actual D&J ep) Sam and Dean both get a job at the movie theater. Sam does a bunch of work, but Dean slacks off and gets all the credit. When Dean becomes Sam's boss, Sam is fed up, because he was doing all of Dean's work for him ( ... )

big_pink February 23 2008, 02:25:35 UTC

You guys are killing me here. I'd like to see Dean pump rocksalt into the singing knapsack after about the third time it burst into song. Dora: Just say 'Swiper, no swiping!" Dean: blama-ty-blam-blam!!!

Actually, that might work quite well on Bela, too.

ETA: I do realize that Swiper and the Knapsack are two different entities in Doraland. I do. I get the shivers imagining the boys on Zoe 101. They could do some serious damage there, too.

Like show up 10 years later so Dean can do some maths and wonder if he's the one who knocked up the lead.

Erm. I can't write that any way that doesn't sound like a bizarre mixture of real and fictional, and it's making my head spin already, and not in a good way.

And that would work well on Bela! If we say it three times, she'll say, "Oh, man!" and walk off in a huff.

But a Weechesters+Dora show would have more Latin than Spanish. Hey, a Weechesters cartoon for the ickle set would be a great way to teach kids how to avoid Scary Creatures and the intricate facets of Latin. Of course, a Schoolhouse Rock version of the standard exorcism would also be handy in the SPN-verse, at least as useful as memorizing the Preamble of the Constitution was for me back in the 70s.
I probably shouldn't tell you that I'm going to drive past the real Miami Ink store tomorrow en route to seeing Jamie Oliver at Jungle Island for a presentation on kids and ( ... )

There is no way to make that Zoe 101 joke in any way palatable (and believe me, my children know that I keep trying!!! Nitgirl: Mummy, could you please stop rolling your eyes and making hacking noises everytime Jamie-Lynn comes on screen? Chas: Mum, the teacher says that word you used when Zoe came on is a bad word and that I shouldn't use it.)

Next time Bela's on screen, I'm officially yelling Swiper, no swiping. Three times. And then poof! She will go away in a sulk.

As for all that other fantasy stuff that happens to you in the fantasy land that is Florida? *waves hands around vaguely* Yeah, whatever. I'm totally trying not to hate you too much as I battle snow and go to a neighbour's daughter's BRIDAL SHOWER.

(on a separate note: Why were bridal showers not banned years ago along with witch burnings? It seems reasonable and perhaps not unrelated).

I got nothing to add, except this is the best meme ever. ::wipes tears from face, laughs some more::

If they were on Showtime, we'd have seen some serious succubus action by now. *g*

big_pink February 23 2008, 04:45:13 UTC

Oh, EM, there you are!!!! *hugs you* It's been a long time since you've visited! And me, you, I sadly, sadly realize. Life is good, but (obviously) busy.

Yes, the things that people come up with -- they just crack my shit up. And Showtime would TOTALLY have full-frontal succubus action.

Or if it was on one of the French channels up here? Yeah. Total full-frontal. Everyone would be naked, for very little reason whatsoever.

Thursday nights on CBS... ravenrants February 23 2008, 04:19:34 UTC

Camera opens on a happy family, Mom, Dad, Baby, having a nice dinner. They're laughing, joking, life is GREAT ( ... )

Re: Thursday nights on CBS... big_pink February 23 2008, 04:47:11 UTC

I don't even WATCH CSI, yet I know it's spot-on! Perfect! And they'd totally be in Vegas, not poopy old Miami (though I'd really pay good coin to see Dean in the same room with David Caruso's character, whatever his name is...)

Sweeeeeeet.

Re: Thursday nights on CBS... ravenrants February 23 2008, 04:49:40 UTC

LOL - I though about it, but then I realized that Dean would snatch the sunglasses from Caruso's face, crush them under his heels, and call Horatio Caine: Candy Caine.

The show would then crash and burn...

:)

I much prefer Vegas.
