sulwenBlogging as I go during my second watch. My first viewing was too emotional to properly comment on. And yes, I know that makes me a bit too invested. I'm willing to live with that.
Ok, is it just me or was that shot of Dean at the end of the recap NOT IN LAST WEEK'S EPISODE? Because it was really, really pretty.
I APPROVE OF SHIRTLESS SAM.
I ALSO APPROVE OF SAM'S TATTOO. YAY!
I...really don't care about Jess or the girl playing her. Sorry. Totally not blown away, as many seemed to be...
However, the use of words like "semantics" always makes me a happy, happy girl. Yay vocab!
"I was dead from the moment we said hello." OUCH.
Mmm...Jared cries beautifully. Poor Sammy!
OH MY FUCKING GOD THE MONTAGE. *WILL TRY NOT TO WEEP THIS TIME*
IT'S LIKE THEY MADE A FANVID AND STUCK IT INTO AN EPISODE, WHICH BTW I AM ALL FOR.
AWW SAM NO DON'T BURN YOUR IDS! YOU NEED THOSE FOR LATER!!!
"Eat it, Twilight!" AWESOME PHRASING, RIGHT THERE. I FULLY INTEND TO TAKE THAT LINE OUT OF CONTEXT.
OMG CHOPPING LEMONS AND WASHING THE CAR AND CLEANING BLOODSTAINS OFF CLOTHING! I...kind of have a thing for watching the boys do normal, everyday tasks. MORE PLEASE.
Honestly, I don't even like that song, AND my sound for that part is about two seconds off, and I still totally cried the first time I watched it.
PERSONAL SPACE! Lol...
Things I love: that Dean talks about his relationship with Sam like they're a couple on a trial separation. Also, that he still really really wants the amulet now please thanks.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Angel! I smell a spin-off!
Jesus CHRIST. If I didn't ship Sam/Dean so fucking hard, I would be going nuts over all this Dean/Castiel slashiness. As it is...I enjoy it, but my OTP-ness in this fandom is just too strong to really ship them. Though I'll still totally read it. It's actually really weird, because I'm not the OTP type in any other fandom - usually, I'll ship everyone/everyone. Those boys do something to you, I swear.
UGH - Keith is my dead grandfather's name. Not great associations. *covers ears*
Hmm. I suppose dart-throwing and knife-throwing can't be too different. Odd scene, though.
OH MY GOD, DEAN FIXING CASTIEL'S TIE IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS TO HAPPEN EVER. HE IS SUCH A GIRL SOMETIMES AND I LOVE IT. *fans self*
Castiel fails so hard at playing pretend...but he does it in such a cute way!
Ok, there's NO WAY this is just me - the sheriff's deputy sounds SO MUCH like Obama. Tone, speech patterns...Seriously, go back and watch that scene.
I would watch a Dean and Castiel sitcom. They make me laugh. Misha is awesome, and I love it when Jen gets to show off his comedic side.
I hadn't even thought about it being damaging to the vessel, hosting something so powerful. Hmm...that makes me reconsider what I want to happen this season.
Who ARE all these contacts on Sam's phone? He doesn't call anyone but Dean and Bobby, ever! Also, SADFACE at looking at Dean's number and not calling him. I don't care if we've seen it before - it's still sad!
LOVE that Sam and Dean are the best at their job. LOVE LOVE LOVE.
I also love Castiel's shifty-eyed look when Dean mentions women. SLASH GOGGLES FTW.
Those hunters are DICKS. Fuck them.
Ok, I am TRYING to get past Sam's patterned white shirt, and I can't. That thing is HIDEOUS.
I don't HATE the waitress, but she's trying way, way too hard. Sure, he's hot, but do you have to be quite THAT insensitive? Leave the boy alone!
OMG CASTIEL'S LITTLE SCARED PUPPY FACE! *pets him*
Castiel chugging beer! Oh, that's Dean's influence for you...beer and hookers...*love*
I want a Dean story now about the one time he "ordered off the menu" and lived to regret it!
Also, like everyone else, I want a hooker!Dean story stemming from that "absent fathers" line.
Damn, Misha - you look mighty fine with your cloths all halfway hanging off!
Oh poor baby...I know, Dean, you've been through hell. Literally. But you'll get to a place where you can laugh again. I hope, anyway... *prays to Kripke*
I can totally see Sam as being Mafia. Mmm...now I have a very, VERY pretty image in my head of Sam in a well-tailored suit with a machine gun...
I disagree with that "no one has ever done anything so bad they can't be forgiven" bullshit. That just plain isn't true. Some things, you don't come back from.
I'm actually not a fan of the guy playing Rafael. He has weird eyes. But whatever.
Ok, so not to be nitpicky here, but they knew Rafael was coming how, exactly? I feel like we missed a scene...
I liked the soundtrack here - very movie-ish. The storm effects seemed really loud compared to the voices, though.
Watching Sam get force-fed demon blood was a really deeply emotional moment for me, and I'm not sure why. I felt like I'd been punched in the gut, hardly breathing with my hands clasped over my mouth in shock. It hurt.
On a lighter note, watching him kick ass is always fun, and helped pull me out of the episode and into real life again.
Dear GOD, Sam looks really hot when he's all sweaty and growly and blood-covered.
ADORE the callback to season one. I want JDM!
Ok, now here I'm going to rant. If you watched that last scene in the Impala and took what Dean was saying at face value, I'm going to lose some respect for you. Come on. We're CLEARLY meant to think Dean isn't being honest - not with himself, not with Castiel, and not with the audience. He doesn't look happy, he doesn't sound happy, and Castiel doesn't believe him. He's in denial, people. They're hitting us over the head with it. And if you don't see that, I'm kind of wondering how much attention you're even paying.
SO much love for that last scene with Sam and Lucifer. I love love LOVE Sam as Lucifer's vessel, probably because I have such a thing for evil!Sam.
Man, everyone brought their acting chops tonight. Jen and Misha were funny and perfect together, and Jared - I can't believe how much he's improved as an actor. He made me cringe in some of the early episodes, but I thought he did a fantastic job tonight. Awesome to see!
Is it too much to ask for Michael!Dean, Lucifer!Sam, and God!John? Because if that's where we're heading, I will be singing this show's praises for the rest of my life, simply for how beautiful the parallelism is.
I can't WAIT for next week! Can you believe that I totally missed the "orgy" line the first couple times I watched it? Didn't get it until I saw people talking about it in other episode reactions. I blame the extreme hotness of evil!whitesuit!Sam.
Show is three out of three for good episodes this year, at least for me personally. Keep it up, boys!

Date: 2009-09-26 09:29 am (UTC)Yeah, ew, Sam, never use the name Keith again. There is nothing sexy about it - ever.
The dart throwing may have been random, but TOTALLY HOT and I'd never play against that boy because I'd lose so fucking bad.
The contact right above Dean in Sam's phone is Deborah - IS SAM WINCHESTER CALLING MY MOTHER?! She has got some serious explaining to do. (Also, I showed my aunt and mom shirtless Sam, they approved and thought my comment "I would climb him like a tree was hysterical... and true.)
I don't have fic where Jared is actually in the Mafia, but he plays an assassin hired to kill Jen.... but ends up with him :D IT IS RIDICULOUSLY HOT! Also, it's a
And Sam being kick ass was sofuckingHOT and his hair finally got messed up. Stop doing that slicked back thing!
Thank you! I didn't buy Dean being totally happy. Maybe for a bit he was relieved to not have to think about it, but there's no way that he was happy without Sam when he said that. And the way he said it didn't sound right to me. And if Castiel doesn't believe him, that's gotta say something.
I loved how Lucifer was just so calm and sounded almost sweet when talking to Sam. Kind've appealing to that part of Sam that I know is still in there. And still being threatening enough not to be over the top. I don't know, it's 5:30 and I just got up for no good reason... Good job, guy who's name I forget at the moment!
GOD!JOHN FTW! I'd reconsider my religious beliefs ;)
Wow, you missed the orgy line? I'll blame the emotional high of the episode for that one. I watched this with mom tonight and she was like flailing about it. She is SUCH a fangirl!

Date: 2009-09-28 09:46 am (UTC)Seeing shirtless Sam just made me think 'Gah! He sleeps shirtless!' which translated to 'He sleeps shirtless in the same room as Dean!' which translated to...well...awesome mind imagery. XD
Jess was boring, unconvincing and downright mean this time around. Which was totally justified when it was Lucifer all along. Who, btw, was super scary in his matter-of-fact 'I will have you' speech. The combination of sympathetic/mis-judged and sinister gives me the creeps. If not for being Lucifer, I would still find him incredibly dangerous.
Misha stole the show this week. His 'tell the truth and I shall recieve' mind-set at the sheriff's station, the 'What's this? An FBI badge? Which way do I hold it up?', the 'It's DEMONS!' and the 'GET.ME.OUT.OF.HERE' facial expressions were perfect. Not to mention I LOVED Castiel's "I'm here, Raphael. Come and get me you little bastard" and "bitch" lines. Dean looked just as impressed as I was. I HEART CASTIEL.
Jared was great and big and tall and hunky and sad. That boy needs to wear t-shirts more often. There's no point in the wardrobe ladies drowning him in big shirts and jackets anymore. We know he's big. We LIKE it. His hesitant calling Dean and apologies to Bobby were sad to watch, as was his horror at learning he's Lucifer's intended vessel. That's gotta fuck a kid right up. 'Hey man, on top of all the shitty choices you made and will be paying for - for the rest of your life - you're the devil's meat-suit. You're basically never going to redeem yourself, no matter how hard you try! HAH! NOW THATS HOW YOU KICK A MAN WHILE HE'S DOWN!' I also felt hugely hopeful and proud when Sammy spat the demon blood out. You keep fighting, honey. I believe in you!
Random bar girl #1 was so annoying and boring and GOD, painful as all hell to watch that I'm not even going into it.
Now Dean. Ohhh, Dean. I believe that he believes what he's saying. I truly believe he's enjoying the added Sam-Weight off his shoulders, but it will only be temporary. Dean's growing as a person, but at the core of him he still has Sam's name written all over his heart. That won't change, ever. Despite everyone's bitch-fitting (which is seriously pathetic btw), Dean and Sam will find their way back to each other, and when they do, they'll be stronger than ever. DEMONS WON'T WANNA MESS WITH THIS SHIT.
Raphael - I liked him. He had a very commanding voice/stance/stare and I was totally sold on the archangel. My heart also broke when he got all teary-eyed and said in a broken voice "We're tired. We just want it to end. We just want Paradise." It put another interesting angle on the angel thing - they're all running around in their own chaos trying to keep things together in God's absence - and they know they're failing miserably. Castiel connected with him briefly through that, before Raphael went back to threatening the crap out of them.
Loved all the Castiel/Dean moments - the tie-tying and personal space and TOUCHING was awesome, as was Dean melting at Castiel's "No one else will help me." Sam-crying is always nice - we better get a very teary-huggy-apologetic-brother reunion or so help me god, I will cut a bitch. Can't wait for the next episode either! Ultimate!Dean, Hippy!Stoner!Orgy-Loving!Castiel and Lucifer!Sam? THERE IS NO OTHER WAY FOR THIS EPISODE TO GO BUT BE EPICLY MADE OF AWESOME.
