BIG EXPLOSIONS! WIREWORK! FIGHT CHOREOGRAPHY!

I have a specific question regarding the 6x10 promo pics.

This is a screencap from the opening credits of WHAT KIND OF SHOW?



Is it a show about SPIES? Is Meg a secret agent and Cas is her handler? Sam is the guy who doesn't say much and is terrifying and everyone calls "the cleaner"?

Is it a show about SECRET ALIENS? Are they all aliens trying to blend in in the human world? Or is it just Meg who's the alien, and Sam is her love interest, and Dean is his brother reluctantly dragged into this whole shitshow OH GOD EVERYONE IS IDIOTS, Dean thinks. Cas is Meg's Giles if she were Buffy. Cas was the one who found Meg in the first place. He's good at sciencing! And a little bit of a crackpot. MEG EATS ICE CREAM AND LEARNS ABOUT HUMANITY. THEY ALL RUN AWAY FROM THE GOVERNMENT. Cas puts her on a pedestal and so does Sam, but for different reasons. She gives touching monologues about what life was like back in her home planet.

Is it a show about CON ARTISTS?!? Like 'Leverage' but less sitcommy. TOGETHER THEY STEAL FROM THE RICH, but also run from nemeses and sabotage enemies. Perhaps they sell information too. WILL CAS HAVE TO DO ACCENTS AND WEAR SNAZZY SUITS? Yes. Often. Are they in a show about former spies determined to take down their evil and corrupt spy agency? PERHAPS THEY ARE. Sam and Meg will have to provide make-out distractions on more than one occasion. One time, Meg and Cas have to. ~TENSION ENSUES:



IT STARTED SHIP WARS THAT FOREVER DIVIDED THE FANDOM.



ARE THEY A NEW CSI TEAM?!? GODDDD THERE ARE SO MANY POSSIBILITIES. MAYBE THEY ARE COPS, MAYBE THEY ARE ROBOTS, MAYBE THEY ARE CYBORGS. Maybe only Dean and Meg are cyborgs, and Dean didn't know he was a cyborg. INSERT EXISTENTIAL CRISIS HERE. "I'M NOT A ROBOT," he weeps. Cas is a cyborg engineer. Together, they talk about humanity and ALSO POETRY WHY NOT. Cas expresses a love for Bashō, and Dean writes a haiku to prove he's not just some machine. Cas replies, "Of course you're not a machine. That's the point of cyborgs," which somehow doesn't help.

One night, Dean convinces Cas to go to a bar. You are fifty years old before your time, Cas, he says. Have a beer. Cas gets irritable and asks Dean what he's trying to prove. "Nothing," Dean lies.

MEANWHILE:

"Yo, I rewired my forearm last night, check it out," Meg says. She points her finger like a gun at the TV, and yells, "Pow!"

The TV turns on.

"Sweet," Sam says, and high-fives her.


SO MANY POSSIBILITIES SO MANYYYYYYY. Whatever it is, I WANT IT I WANT IT I WANT IT OMG.


YOUR SPECULATIONS?

"IF I WANT TO BREAK INTO A BUILDING, I HAVE TO INPUT A CODE INTO THE DOOR CONSOLE LIKE A SAVAGE"
This made me LOL.

Mannn, if I had Tivo, I would Tivo the hell out of this shit. And not that urban explorers are a ghost show, but sometimes ponderings about the supernatural poke through in their ramblings when talking about fear and darkness and the dead.

NOOOO NOT THE FRENCH FRIIIIIES. Oh god, I hope the rips in space-time making them become wayward time-travelers is never fixed. If at the finale finale, it's totally fixed and it's time to go home, I hope they choose each otherrrrr. AND THEN THEY ALL JUMP TO THE DINOSAUR AGE, TO RIDE A BRACHIOSAURUS.

HAHA IS THERE A SCENE WHERE MOZART STARTS RIFFING ON THE PIANO TO GUNS 'N ROSES?? And then Dean and Meg jump in and sing every word.

OMG THE MENTAL IMAGE OF CASTIEL RIDING AN APATOSAURUS ♥

Oh man, they totally fix the rips in space-time for the season finale, and there's this big scene where they're all standing around on the verge of saying goodbye, and then it's like:

Meg: ... you know, I'm really going to miss having rights.
Castiel: No doubt there will be some punishment awaiting me in my own time.
Meg: Diet Coke. I'm going to miss Diet Coke.

Pause

Castiel: I'm sure it wouldn't hurt for some of us to stay.
Meg: Right! I mean, who else is going to stop guys like Nikola Tesla?

Meg looks around her team, her boys, and starts to smile. Even Castiel begins to get that glint in his eye, the kind he only gets when he's being really rebellious. Sam looks over at Dean. Dean looks back at Sam and grins...

AND THEN THEY GO OUT AND GET DRUNK. Or something. I don't know, I'm not a writer.

HAHA IS THERE A SCENE WHERE MOZART STARTS RIFFING ON THE PIANO TO GUNS 'N ROSES??

Oh man, Castiel would be SO SOUR. He'd have all these RULES about conscientious time-travelling; "Don't teach Mozart the lyrics to Back in Black, Dean", "No, Dean, Friedrich Nietzsche doesn't "need" to see Star Wars", "I don't care if she is eight years old, Dean, you can't buy Queen Elizabeth I a McDonalds Happy Meal".

WHO ELSE WILL STOP TESLA IF NOT ERRANT TIME-TRAVELERS? My heart is furious and anguished that this is not a real TV show now. You know that when Cas starts giving Dean shit for giving Leonardo da Vinci an etch-a-sketch, Dean'd be like, "Right, so you maybe should stop exposing me to FREAKY FUTURE SEX THINGS." ...And Cas doesn't wanna do that.
