Well, the G-20's in town today, meaning all classes were canceled. So, I wasn't stuck listening to the droning sound of liabilities and the time value of money during Supernatural tonight. And, it turns out that getting plane tickets halfway across the country with only two days' notice and the frickin' G-20 in town is damn near impossible. So, I'm not in Texas. And I may feel like a douche about that, but there's nothing I could do about it, so may as well take advantage, right?
Oh, and Supernatural....
SAMMY! Oh, god, Sammy Sammy Sammy Sammy Sammy SammySammySammySammy... *continues on in this vein for some time*
Alright, I'm done gibbering.
Okay, going roughly in order:
Is it just me, or is Show blowing an awful lot of its budget this year on the music? I was thinking that last week, too, and it was a little obvious this week -- I can't imagine licensing "A Simple Kind of Man" was cheap.
JESS!!! JESS, BABY!! We haven't seen a whole lot of Jess over the years, but I love her. I love what she represents. And I was so happy to see her! And then I was so heartbroken over what she said. Oh god. Sam can never change, he's doomed forever, anyone he loves or gets close to will die, he'll never have normal, Jess dying was all his fault. Jesus. I was practically in tears by the first commercial break.
Dean and Castiel were hilarious, for the most part. I swear to god, though, I'VE READ THAT FIC. As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure I've read several of those fics, and I actively avoid Dean/Castiel. Also: what the fuck was up with the brothel? It wasn't nearly as funny as Dean seemed to think it was, and I kept yelling at the TV: "No! Not Castiel's body! Jimmy! Remember Jimmy? Bad!" That was actually a bit creepy.
And then Dean admitting that he had more fun with Castiel than he's had with Sam in years (I do believe I can pinpoint the exact moment, actually: Hell House. It was all angst and woe from there on out), and he's happier on his own, and OH MY GOD, BOYS!!! SAMMY!!
And then Sammy, and the girl, and hunters, and oh god Sam! Letting those hunters go is so going to come back and bite Sam in the ass. Just you watch and see. I am glad that Show didn't actually end up killing the girl, though. I was rather worried, and was just waiting to call Woman in Refrigerator. So, good job, Show.
And then, back to Jess again, and it wasn't Jess, it was Lucifer! And can I just say: Thank you, Kripke!!!! You love me, you really do!! You've heard it here, folks! Lucifer!Sam is now canon! And god knows I've read enough of those fics, and loved them to death, so I don't mind. But still. Poor Sammy. Lucifer's quiet certainty that Sam will say yes. And, oh, Lucifer promising Sam that he'd never lie to him, never trick him. Of course, this is after he tricked Sam into thinking he was Jess. So, I suppose we should take that with a grain of salt, yes? Still.
Still, I have decided that I will accept Dean/Castiel if it is accompanied by Sam/Lucifer. Yes, yes, yes. I wants it. I wants it so bad.
And before I forget, I should mention that I really like what's-his-face as Lucifer. I thought for sure I'd only be able to see him as Paul, but aside from one moment when he said something in a really distinctive way, I never once though of Paul. Hell, I might not have recognized him at all if I hadn't already heard who he was. So, yeah, I liked him. Although, I would really, really prefer a certain actor, oh what's his name, Jared Padalecki?, as Lucifer. Yes. Yes yes yes.
On the whole? It felt like not much happened in this ep, but there were some fairly momentous revelations, and excellent (if painful) character moments, so I don't mind. I'd say Season 5's going pretty well, so far.
