Hey, shiny, 6x08 passes Bechdel! I was beginning to think not a single S6 episode did, but 6x08 has Mandy and another mother and her daughter all talking, and we actually hear some of the conversation. Okay, the bit we hear goes "See you later" and "Bye", but it's a Bechdel-passing conversation!

...how pathetically low my expectations are.

It's SPN. Sometimes I'm embarrassed that I like the show because of how I have to turn off a lot of my critical analysis functions to not notice how few women or black people are in it.

Otoh, it generally does an *excellent* job of making the characters deal with their stupid mistakes. I hate it when the hero gets a pass for doing something stupid, unethical, illegal, or Just Plain Wrong, and Supernatural rarely does that. Mainly because letting the characters dig their own holes seems to be how they come up with the seasonal arcs on SPN.
