Feb. 2nd, 2007 09:28 am1. Put a lot of songs in a hat.
2. Pick a song out of the hat.
3. Write entire episode for song.
4. Use at least 10 of the following 16 elements.
a. Bitchface
b. Dean angst (bonus points for single tear)
c. Car porn
d. Porn
e. Self-conscious gay jokes
f. Dork!Dean
g. Sam's Trustworthy Eyebrows
h. Sam's Trustworthy Eyebrows, Sympathy Edition
i. Coffee
j. Perky women
k. Superfast grave-digging
l. Unsubtle product placement
m. Heartfelt brotherly conversation
n. Dean is HETEROSEXUAL!
o. Mommy issues
p. Daddy issues
5. Pick a Zeppelin song title.
6. Cover the camera with something. The more opaque, the better.
7. Zoom in on faces. A lot.
8. Air!
Oh, I love this show. Also: I want to watch an episode titled "I Can't Quit You Baby," in which Sam and Dean are bound by some strange spell that doesn't let them get more than fifteen feet away from one another (wait...I think I read that somewhere.) Or possibly an episode called "Moby Dick," in which Dean gets stoned a lot. Hey, it's like practically canon.
