Not ripping off. HOMAGE. Say it with me: HOMAGE. :D

[crystalkirk.livejournal.com]

Heee! That was going to be my exact comment. HOMAGE, indeed. ;)

Yeah, but the X-Files ripped off Rashomon so... ;p

Bad Blood was funnier.

Not that SPN doesn't have more than its share of crushing angst, but the Winchesters manage to get goofy on a fairly regular basis. It was more fun to see Scully get all dorky and lustridden over Luke Wilson. And who can forget Mulder singing "Shaft!"

Oh, and let's not forget how X-Files ripped off paid homage to "Run Lola Run." Everyone does it! ;)

(Did you ever watch G vs E? It was this really awesome but short-lived cable show. They did a much better "Run Lola Run" ep than The X-Files one.)

Supernatural is like TXF's little stepbrother, because EVERYONE from XF works on SPN now. Just look at the credits yes I know you don't watch -- it's like a giant XF family reunion.

"Prison, Scully. Your cellmate's name is gonna be 'Large Marge'...she's gonna read a lot of Gertrude Stein..."

I wouldn't call it ripping off so much as a deeply loving homage. And, don't worry, even as a hardcore SPN fan I will always love "Bad Blood" more. :)

What, are you new? There is nothing SPN will not rip off. Nothing is sacred. ;)

I defy this "homage" speak! The show's trying to be SPN and failing anyway, this was just blatant copycatting.

John Shiban wrote it, so... *shrugs* :)

For all the Bad Blood talk, it was really more of a Bad Blood/Jose Chung's From Outer Space/Syzygy mix.

Here's what you need to know to love SPN... they will rip off any horror plotline they can get away with. I do have to say though that I think I remember which X-Files episode they ripped off, but I'm not sure so now I have to go download it hopefully. If I can find it.

Plus, like whoever else said, there are so many X-Files writers on that show it's almost X-Files 2 anyway. LOL. I stick with homage.
