I also game AND am a diehard sports fan.  I also read comics and used to watch wrestling and soap operas. I don't care what other people's little gender hang-ups and expectations are, I like certain things and will take it where I find it. I love snarky, quick-witted clever dialogue. Most of the early WB shows had it. Heck, there was even a season or two when 7th Heaven was watchable. And the dialogue and delivery on Gilmore Girls is mostly amazing, except when the writers are trying so hard to be clever that they get too obscure, or contradict their previous witty banter.To segue to Supernatural.. Did any other Gilmore Girls fans find it incredibly distracting that the guy who played Dean on Gilmore Girls and compete with a guy named Jess was Sam here, with a brother named Dean and a girlfriend named Jess? ACK. One day someone will explain how things like that don't get caught and altered to prevent confusion.The guys seem to have decent brotherly chemistry. But two-person cast shows NEVER EVER work for me. I don't know how long they plan to keep going with monster-of-the-week, but if they don't pick up some allies, some enemies, or their dad soon, I know I will get bored. The sfx when the woman in white faded away were over-done, when you don't have a great budget, you're always best off avoiding silly stuff like that. But what bothered me most was the very last scene. After Sam's gf burned away on the ceiling, the show should either have just ended with him quietly driving away with his brother or come up with one more scene that was slightly less pointless and cliche than what we got. Now that I can watch stuff at will, my bar has been lowered enough to keep watching shows that are only ok. So I'll probably stick with this for a bit to see what happens</blockquote>
