the revolution will not be prophesied

Is anyone watching Happy Town at all? Because it is kind of AWESOME, and I should make a proper pimping post. But not today. Happy Town kind of reminds me of the "My Ainsel" section of American Gods, except told through the townspeople's perspective. It's set in a Great Lake state, AND there is a creepy bird, AND spring thaw festival shenanigans, AND there are even those magic tricks metaphor of which Gaiman was so fond. Availz on Hulu.

A small town in Minnesota is not as happy as the show title would have you believe. What's with these vanished people? What's with that new girl who just moved into town, and what does she REALLY want? The characters are excellent, with lots of familiar faces. Uriel (SPN), for one, playing Uriel. Ruth Fisher (Six Feet Under) playing the Machiavellian town mayor. Cardinal Woolsey (The Tudors) playing a dashing old man with a lot of skeletons in his closet. He owns a store selling a movie memorabilia and it's called--wait for it--THE HOUSE OF USHERS <33333. And don't get me started on Henley's reined-in chutzpah, or TC the reluctant sheriff, or the merry widows <333, or the Stiviletto brothers. THIS COULD'VE BEEN MY NEW SHOW. WHY SO PREMATURELY CANCELING, ABC? Do we have a movement to save it yet?

( Hey, I'm posting SPN 5.22 thoughts, after all. )

'Put Your Lights On' - SPN fanmix - Sam & Dean

I'm sitting on a few fanmixes right now. I recently amassed a wealth of music so I'm gonna sit on them some more, and hopefully serendipity will lead me to songs that even better explicate Dean/Alastair and Jimmy/Castiel &c.

I deem this Winchesters mix ready to go though! It spans S5, winks at S6, and is about as full of erotic codependency as you'd expect. I'm still trying to get the hang of this GIMP program, but I think we'll do okay, even if I still get a little misty for Photoshop sometimes.

vikki has finished sorting castielfest prompts and is sending them out right now. My heart is full of capslock and keysmash and the XD emoticon, you don't even know.
