... here! Spoilers, beware!

What caught my interest and bothered me the most...

Kripke on Bela:
... but I think we need to push a little harder, we have to do a better job muddying up the character, making her human and real to the audience.

Beware, Kripke! Push hard enough and what didn't bend will break! It bothers me that he was ready to kick out Jo based on the fans' negative response but instead of doing the same with Bela, he wants to "humanize her" *rolls eyes* You wanted a bitch? Keep her a bitch! Don't give us a doozy back-story, really.

Kripke about the "bright look" of S3:
It was very intentional. We wanted to create a more dramatic contrast between the "real" world, in which we all live, and the "secret" supernatural world that exists just beneath the surface.

I think that this experiment definitely failed, at least IMHO. I miss the dark and blue atmoshpere of S1. The only thing lacking in S3 are blooming flowers and bunnies hopping around, really. It's a horror show, not some afternoon special!

Though what I do like is how confidently he talks about "we will do this and that in S4", like S4 is a done deal already.

I think he described the problem with Bela without even realizing it, all "we in the writer`s room had so much fun with her and she is so smart and snarky and resourceful etc". They seem to have fallen for some idea how great that character is and how great they must make her look when the audience comes in from the position of caring about Dean&Sam and not enjoying seeing them put down by some smarmy bitch who gets away with it on top of that.

Also the "she isn`t a love interest anytime soon" made me have nervous twitches. She is trash as a person, therefore she is much beneath the brothers. Keep that in mind please. Urgh.

Yeah, that "anytime soon" got me too! I mean that means that they already plan for her to be a love interest. And thus I must say once more - Kripke is a lying liar who lies. He swore up and down that the girls were NOT love interests! I like Kripke, he is his own biggest fanboy but lately, he contradicts himself so much...

It's also pretty much obvious that no matter the fans' opinion, Bela is there to stay and that makes me quite NOT happy.
