i am committed, but not so invested. and it's true what you say - it's not the best with the characterisation. um, i KNOW it's canon, but still! i think watching this episode made me remember that it has never actually been a COMPLETELY fantastic show script-wise, or cinematography-wise or whatever. sure, there are amazing single episodes, and there were runs of amazing eps in season 2 particularly, but generally it's not to the beautiful-looking standard of, say, carnivale (i'm just watching that for the first time!)
this doesn't make me any less fannish for it, though! i mean, i can still fan HP even though JKR is possibly one of the worst writers EVAH! it's just a reminder that, er, sometimes the fic is better. and hey, i got into SPN for the fandom anyway, not the show. canon-schmanon!
