Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion thread

Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

Mother making her debut tonight?
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

Holy shit! :eek: Getting a little grim here.

And the mother actress is better than I initially gave her credit for.

Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

Noooooooo....... :( That sucks.

Notice no one gives a shit about Samuel. :lol:

Now we know why Bobby was so harsh with Dean about forgiving Sam after he beat the crap out of him over trusting Ruby.
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

I'm surprised that Samuel is gone just like that. I expected him to be around a bit longer, at least till the end of the season.

I'm sad about Rufus being dead and for a second, I thought Bobby was the next.

Dean may be right about life being too short to hold onto grudges but I think his idea of "clean slate" which is meant to inspire Sam into letting go of his time as Soulless Sam is going to end up biting him in the ass. You can't forget the things you've done in the past and move on with your life like it never happened. Eventually, Sam has to face all of what he did, who he was, and I think that time is going to be when the wall in his head comes down.
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

I can't wait for the old west episode. That's going to be awesome. And I agree that Sam won't be able to forget.

And....the TWOPsters are giving it an F. Won't forgive them for killing Rufus and boring, they say. :rommie: I knew last week's brief reprieve from them wouldn't last. :guffaw:
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

This episode like so much of this season is just so very average. I give it a C.

The mythology was there in the background but not much in the way of interesting revelations or forward movement. The supernatural slug was pretty standard Body Snatcher stuff which was boring--no real tension.

Also I was glad they cleaned house and got rid of Gwen and Samuel--I never cared for them and they were nothing more than plot devices so good riddance. Rufus' death seemed gratuitous--they didn't really need to do it. I have to say I also didn't care for how it was handled--its execution was very meh and it rang very hollow emotionally almost like a footnote although the final scene was somewhat emotionally evocative but not nearly enough.

I realize shows these days want to show they are willing to kill off characters but the way they do it on a lot of shows--Lost, BSG for instance and tonite's episode just seem like the writers doing it for pure spectacle and it never really carries the emotional weight character deaths used to when they were rare and almost Major Events that got the spotlight, attention and time they deserved. Character deaths these days are not very well done for the most part.

I really have to say 16 episodes in that this season really has been forgettable and underwhelming(this mythology has to be the weakest of all 6 seasons)--the only episode I'm interested in after the hiatus is the old west one. CW end the series!
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

The slug served to bring forth revelations about the characters, ie Bobby and Rufus' past. I liked it. But to each his or her own. Rufus' death didn't seem gratuitous to me. I agree that Samuel and Gwen had to go.
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

I'm favoring this season a bit over Season 5 because of its fast pace and great plot twists that keep making things interesting for the characters.

But their past seemed like just another thing shoved into the episode but given very little focus.

They already cleaned house with Gwen and Samuel--there was no need to kill Rufus--one of the more successful recurring characters--other than to go overboard with the body count and to pile on unnecessary angst onto Bobby when they only introduced the Bobby/Rufus secret troubled history in this episode.
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

CW end the series!

Well beside the fact that The CW can't afford to end this show and Smallville at the same time, the pacing of the season says the plan is to have a season seven all along.

Seeing as Eve, the true big bad of the season was introduced so late, and is only now getting rolling, screams that this arc will not conclude at the end of the season.

This is meant to be a two season story.

Season 5 for me was more uneven with higher highs(Abandon All Hope, My Bloody Valentine, The End) and lower lows(Hammer of the Gods, Changing Channels) than Season 6 which has been consistently middling with no real excellent episode or outright awful one. Season 5 also had a better sense of weight to it and narrative urgency to it compared to the wandering storytelling this season. I was no great fan of S5 but I appreciate it more now after sitting through season six.
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

But Bobby and Rufus aren't Dr. Phil. They don't like to care and share. I think it was illuminating as to how they acted along the way. They were always fighting about something. Just my interpretation.

Samuel was dead meat the minute he sold out Dean and Sam.

I doubt it. Plenty of shows introduce the big bad at the end of the season and wrap up the story i.e. Sphere Builders on ENT Linderman on Heroes S1, Land it looks like with Klaus on The Vampire Diaries.

Yea, but that is not Supernatural's M.O. They spent a long time building the Purgatory storyline and only showed a little payoff with Eve's release.

If every upcoming episode dealt with Eve and this season's arc I'd believe it will conclude this year. But I am sure not all six of the remaining episodes will.
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

Not all the episodes last season focused on the devil--we had a lot of pretty much standalone stories or stories with a peripheral connection to the arc building up to the final 3 episodes of the season where they pretty much crammed everything into it. I could see them doing that again this year. We'll see I guess.
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

Sorry, startrekwatcher, barring a collapse of epic proportions in the next couple of months, Supernatural will be back for (at least) one more season. The CW is not going to let both it and Smallville, two of its most successful shows, end in the same year.

I enjoyed the episode. I'd actually forgotten about Gwen, so no loss there, and I agree that it was time for Samuel to go. I'm still sad that they killed Rufus off, though. Dude was awesome. I would have watched a Bobby/Rufus spinoff (unlikely, I know :p) any time. :lol:
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

Painful as it is, Rufus' death reminds us that the Supernatural world is dangerous and costs its main characters loved ones whom they care about. Rufus' death matters. It makes me want to scream, but I respect the decision.
 
Re: Supernatural 6x16 "And Then There Were None" spoiler discussion th

Literally unless the CW folds this season (which is always possible) SPN will be back.

For the Spring its been tied as the number two show on the net in adults 18-49, and even more important its the number two show in adults 18-34. And frankly, thats hard to believe in the first place let alone on a Friday. Considering it used to be the worst performing show on the CW in adults 18-34 (and nearly got it cancelled at the end of the 2nd season).

Its lost the smallest amount of its audience of any show on the CW during its run, its lost the least amount of audience of any scripted show in the last five years on any network on moving to Friday.

Yeah its coming back.
