I watched the first season of Supernatural (and okay, that? was an evil, evil cliffhanger-- or would have been, if someone's sucky lack of a lj-cut hadn't spoiled me for season two a while back-- but still, excellent cliffhanger there).
Supernatural-- okay, it's a decent show, and I do like Sam and Dean. I just don't see what makes it so popular. It seems like a very formulaic show. Still, I adore the mythology the writers use (Zoroastrianism won my heart, seriously), and that's enough for me to get S2 at some point, once it's on sale.
At the same time, I find myself wishing there was a strong female character that isn't just in a single episode and then vanishes off the face of the earth. I really liked Sarah (Sara?), Cassie, and the one female cop from "The Benders." I wish one of them had gotten to stick around. And a bit more diversity to the show.
Speaking of which, are there any good gen S1 or Sam/Jessi, Sam/Sarah, or Dean/Cassie fics out there?
