* A meta-[=CMoA=], the cast and crew arranging multiple events to make it appear that Sharon Belle was leaving the series at the end of Season 2 with the death of her character. The entire fandom was fooled up until the stinger at the end of Episode 36.



* On a meta level, how the show has grown. It started out as an out-there promotion for Kotex with one set and a shoestring budget. Now it has three seasons plus supplemental material, and there's a movie coming up.

* During Part II's DarkestHour, Laura briefly takes on both Danny and the Dean in a desperate attempt to snatch back at least one of the talismans. She's ultimately unsuccessful due to the Dean's magic, but she gets a few good hits in, and considering she started the Season in a HeroicBSOD (and is a squishy human vs a vampire and a GOD), she definitely gets points for trying.

* Laura saving the world not by using traditional means, but by realizing that the Dean is like her and giving her heart to free her from her physical cage. This act not only releases the Dean and allows her to regain her godlike powers but also finally allows her to push back the bitterness and despair that drove her for so long As Carmilla puts it, "four gods and six millennia and untold magic and you save the world with a fricking fortune cookie."
