Series 2, Episode 2: Everybody Loves A Clown

Browsing the internet earlier today (definitely wasn't looking at porn!) I saw a headline for an article which included the trailer for season 11 of Supernatural. Really?? There's now 11 seasons of this! At this rate it's going to take me forever to finish!

Also today, my car went in for its MOT. My luck with this car has not been great, but I was confident that things were turning around as I had had no problems with it for months. Well this confidence was misplaced as I needed two new tyres (costing £140) and repairs to the exhaust (costing another £440!). I could have cried! Looking at this from a positive point of view, it means I will now no longer be able to afford to do pretty much anything which gives me plenty of time to watch some Supernatural!

This one looks like it is going to be about scary clowns. I approve. Clowns are scary. It's something to do with the painted on smile. It's meant to be happy but underneath the clown is just a stranger and could have any kind of intent. 



This is the freakiest opening to an episode so far! A clown has followed a little girl home from a fair. She wakes up to hear a jingling. She looks out of the window and the clown is in the garden staring up at her. Instead of completely losing her shit (as I would do!) she excitedly sneaks downstairs to meet the clown. What a strange girl!

Sam and Dean are burning their fathers body outside. Do hospitals really just let you do that sort of thing? Also it seems in poor taste to burn his body considering what happened to their mother. And standing that close to the burning body, wouldn't they be able to smell it? I'm completely ruining this emotional moment by thinking all this nonsense. Meanwhile Dean is doing his best pouty face. I like it. 
Am I actually perving over a man as he burns his father's body? Yes...yes I think I am.

The brothers meet up with one of their dad's friends, Ellen and her daughter Jo. Dean wastes no time in coming on to Jo. He's definitely covering up for something. It's getting tiresome now. Ellen and Jo have a friend called Ash who says he can review John's notes and track down the demon but he needs 51 hours to work his way through it all. That's a very specific time frame.

Whilst waiting for Ash, Dean and Sam set off to uncover the mystery of the clown. It seems the clown killed the little girls parents but left her unharmed. Unless the clown possessed her and she killed her own parents! That's my drunken theory! 

As I get drunker I'm noticing Sam's hair more. I wonder if it naturally curls like that at the bottom or if he has to style it that way. I could never have a hairstyle where it falls down the forehead like that. It'd be far too irritating.

Sam and Dean meet the manager of the circus so that they can join up and explore. Once enrolled in a job they start investigating. Although I'm not sure why they needed to get a job at the circus in order to investigate it. They only seem to be looking around those areas open to the public so why have the interview? I'm wondering if the scene was contrived just so that we can find out that the circus manager looks just like his dad from a picture they see on the wall. They drew attention to it so it has to be significant.

It wasn't significant.

Okay I've just made a major error when it comes to this blog. It's now several days since I finished the episode and I forgot to finish the blog entry and now I can't really remember what happened. It was all fairly disappointing I think. The clown story line which I think could have been really scary was sidelined by the story line of Sam trying to make Dean come to terms with the loss of their father. Don't get me wrong, that part of it was really good, but I wanted more scary clown shenanigans!
