This is the pilot episode, which includes more of my Sam's-gender-identity headcanon. I now have an urge to rewrite the entire character arcs for seasons 1 and 2, because they were shit. I've decided that I mostly like this show because (a) monsters and angels and shit, (b) pretty people, and (c) the story that Kripke wants to tell is great and has a lot of potential. That potential is squandered in a mess of poorly done camera work (I usually don't even notice camera work, but it really is that bad) and clunky storytelling, and I stick around because I like the story enough, but I just want to, like, go back in time and have them give me some time with the scripts/camera crew to edit it. I am aces at editing, I'm much better at editing and remixing than I am at creating things from scratch.
It occurred to me that, among other things, Dean's fighting style as a traditionally-attractive female would have to be different; he'd have to either train a lot harder to acquire the same amount of upper-body strength, or fight differently, and either way, the character would still be smaller. With that in mind ... not so much straight-up punching as in the show (which I think is stupid, anyway); I figured that Deanna would do more redirecting, and using Sam's height against her (because my Samantha is still a moose. Just, again, less mass) as opposed to just whacking.
I had fun choreographing the hand-to-hand fight.
