Top Ten Supernatural Antagonists – #8 and 9
Not only are they jubilant over partaking in all the traditional holiday rituals that go into eating humans, like dragging victims up the chimney while still alive and ripping out whole fingernails and teeth while the victims wear meadowsweet leaves (after all, nothing else smells finer), but they have every hideous Christmas decoration imaginable on display to show just how ridiculously happy they are. As I’ve always said, go large or don’t go at all.
In the end, it was their love of tradition that led to their downfall. Considering Pagan Gods are killed by a wooden stake through the heart, the live Christmas tree became a convenient Winchester weapon. I bet other Pagan Gods didn’t have that trouble when hunters tore apart their fake trees.

Top Ten Kim Manners Episodes
Kim Manners directed 17 episodes for Supernatural before his untimely death. Most of them were very good, some were great, and there was even one stinker. (Bugs!) But no matter what the episode was about or how it turned out, it always looked amazing, and the acting was (almost) always fantastic. Manners really knew how…

Good choices Alice.
Loved the Pagan Gods. Inspired characters indeed! Scary Ozzie and Harriet.
Supernatural Christmas is my most beloved comfort episode. Especially the boys at the end with their egg nog and the snow falling outside the window on the Impala. Gets the tears flowing every time.
And I really liked Casey. Such a good actress to make a demon likeable. I was sorry Sam killed her and would have liked to see her again. She was a sexy beast!
Hi, Alice,
I liked Casey as well, and while EK admitted in an interview that they revealed too much in that dialogue in Sin City he seems to have abated that a bit now that S4 is closed…a lot of it makes a lot of sense. FOr all that long dialogue it is a rich scene (or two) between Dean and Casey and there is much to be gleaned from it.
As for pagan gods…I love SPN Christmas, it’s ghoulishly fun (and now we’ve even met ghouls), sad and lonely and dark and depressing and all in all one to watch often, whilst hugging your kitty and puppy, at least that’s how I watch it.
🙂
Alice, good choices for 8 and 9.
The pagan gods are fantastic characters – their perky niceness is just erie and the whole torture scene, while I still can’t watch the nail being removed, has it’s great moments. The “fudge” line is one of my all time favourites, along with Dean, pliers in his mouth attached to a molar when the door bell rings -“Is somebody gonna get that? You should get that.”
Casey was a good character. Since I didn’t watch season 3 live, I wasn’t aware there was controversy/issue with the revelations in that conversation. I simply enjoyed the chemistry between the two and Dean’s reaction to Sam shooting Casey – it really demonstrated that she’d struck a chord within him.
I eagerly await choice 7!
I totally forgot how Dean wanted a demon to live. It bothers me that he chided Sam for consorting with Ruby. Cassie had nothing to offer him Dean but he didn’t want to kill her or preached that all demons are evil spiel, but Ruby initially did before we knew her true intentions.
What do you know, both brothers were once upon a time convinced that some demons didn’t weren’t bad. Glad we find out the opposite.
I can’t watch the finger-nails and pliars bit, it’s too gruesome 😮
Casey and Dean definitely fizzed, shame she had to die but you can’t go round getting all snuggly with the opposition, can you? Oh … hang on a sec …
The pagan gods were beyong fantastic. Their over the top christmas decorations reminded me of my aunt’s house and still makes me giggle whenever I am over there.
Casey the demon I am a little more on the fence about. I thought the character (and actor) were great, but when Dean tried to stop Sam from killing her I was jolted a little bit. She was a demon after all.
Nice choices.
Now what is this about Sam being partial to brunettes? How about Cassie (Route 666) and Lisa Braden?? Or Dean’s dream girl from WIAWSNB? I think both boys are brunette partial.

Being the sadist that I am, I absolutely love the Carrigans, simply because of the torture scene. I find it amazing that Dean could still be snarky in that instance. And once again, poor Sam bears most of the brunt on the torture front. The boys’ escape was wonderful… I was thinking to myself ‘saved by the bell’ hahah
Casey’s exchange with Dean was crackling with chemistry, I loved it! I was half-hoping that we could get to see more of her character, and then Sam went and offed her, and the way he did it gave me the chills too…
Tigershire, I’m with you there. Although I feel that there is some evidence to the contrary, on the whole I’d say both boys prefer brunettes..
Alice,
Are you forgetting about Jessica? She’s blonde. Course, considering what happened, maybe Sam’s unconsciously choosing brunettes???
And true, I agree about Dean – hair colour really doesn’t seem to be important for him although the three girls he’s been anywhere near serious about were brunettes.
And yes, this is just for fun. I don’t think the writers or anyone involved in the show was choosing specific hair colour for any reason. GRIN
