Supernatural 1.04 Phantom Traveler

So I'm watching "The Phantom Traveler" on TNT and besides my absolute love for the baby!boys (and, you know, Dean in his black boxer-briefs...), I'm just struck at how much prettier the early seasons are from the current one. I would love it if we could get a few episodes with this kind of lighting. The colors are like the Impala. They're crystal and slick, bright flashes of color and highlights with sharp shadows. Like I said it's like the car itself, like it was shot just to emphasis how pretty that car is. And it goes so well with the overall feel of Supernatural. I love it.

And, you know, Dean's boxer-briefs.

Edit: Bloody Mary. Also one of my favorite episodes in terms of prettiness. Got a question, however: Why is Sam carrying all of Dean's cash? =D Oh, yeah, sure Dean doesn't like handing over pieces of control...

I think that's one of the brightest episodes in the entire series, color-wise - maybe a couple scenes in Changing Channels and Mystery Spot are brighter. In the cinematography's defense, though, overcast existence in Vancouver may be partially to blame.

Ahh, the scene that inspired the ass-equation - a shot that will live in infamy!

Hee. I like bright colors, I guess, because i loved all of those episodes. I also loved--in terms of sheer beauty film-wise--Dead in the Water (which I always seem to manage to type as "Dean in the Water" every single time... -_- ).

And, yeah, most likely. It's hard to get bright clear days like that in Vancouver.

Mmm. Such a good scene. ♥ I wouldn't mind more like it. ♥ ♥ ♥ (Come on, Jensen, take off your pants! For science (and math equations)!)
