SPN Fans! This is a call to arms!

Well, not really. But I need your help.

[livejournal.com profile] aurora_novarum has recently tried out SPN after swearing she wouldn't. She's been watching S4 and she's having a hard time getting into it. She doesn't get the hype. She doesn't understand the appeal.

Mind you, but she hasn't seen the rest of the series! *shakes her*

Your mission, if you chose to accept it, is to convert [livejournal.com profile] aurora_novarum.

I can't do this one alone. She's being stubborn.

But I mean, she missed so much of the build. She's in the middle of the action, but none of the build. She missed the hearty John stuff. She missed a good chunk of Yellow Eyes. She missed Dean's prior heartbreaking stuff. She missed Sam's conflict. The entire ON THE RUN FROM THE LAW arc.

So, post links here. Persuasive essays. Tell her why she should keep trying. Post pictures. Vids. Whatever. I don't care. Whatever it takes to meet the objective.

I do ask that you try to keep spoilers to a mimimum. S4 is a HUGE spoiler in and of itself, so she's ruined some of the fun for herself, but in the event she finally sees the light *snicker* I don't want to spoil the series for her. Unless she is okay with spoilers. But I want to be on the safe side.

Don't scare her off!!

I suggest going back to season 1 and the first episode. The best of the show is all there in that episode, IMHO. View it as a family show.

A lot of people dislike the early episode Bugs, but it's actually a meaty episode in which viewers discover how each guy views their dad and his place in their lives and there's an anvilish parallel with another family there, which I also found revealing. There's also some adorably cute moments, umbrellas, towels, etc.

My point is that even one of the most universally panned episodes is still pretty awesome and has some really cool stuff in it. :-)

SPN is a combination of great angst, humor, and more angst. :-) The first two seasons were the best, IMHO.

One other thing: I know that you may be concerned with the scary. I found the X-files too scary and CSI way too disgusting. SPN has fewer of those moments. I never find it scary or the tension too much, and I am easily scared and easily grossed out. We've talked about this before, but I don't believe in ghosts or creatures or whatever, so I don't find them the least bit scary. I don't think this show does the scary tension bit well at all, so I don't think that's concerning, but we're all different. This is just my take on it. :-)
