the_milky_wayI should stop reading reviews I guess... *sighs*
Uhm yeah....
Let me just says this before I start with the incoherent notes and some rambling.
I am still not a fan of Castiel. I don't like that he seems to be more and more focus of the show and I don't like that they actually put him on the DVD Cover instead of the Impala.
This doesn't mean that I won't watch my show when he is in it.
but sometimes I think it's a little too much.
Yeah go ahead and hit me. I know I am almost alone with this.
Also, I see why people are disappointed in Sam. But I really, really don't get the fierce hate. What happened with 'we have trust in Kripke and he knows what he is doing'? Doesn't that apply to Sam anymore? Just because Castiel is there now and Sam is the part of the show that changed too much? I still love Sam and it hurts to see him like this. He is addicted and probably not really in his mind anymore. Of course he has changed.
I just think it's a little stupid to take it for real and actually tell Jared to fuck off the show because Sam sucks. Uhm guys? It's a show and a character and there are writers writing it.. it's not Jared for fuck's sake.
Notes then (also there be things about the preview for the next two eps).
Oh Sammy.
You know if you start an ep like this it would be cool if it was believable. Dean fishing? Yeah right.
"More private than inside my head?"
So both boys call him Cas now? *sighs*
Jimmy? Seriously?
Starved vessel. I love Sam's face there. Okay Dean's as well.
What did they do with Sam's hair?
Angel battle royale? Oh Sam.
Chained to a comment. Okay, nice description.
This family looks boring. Sorry, but not even Misha can change that.
Jimmy watching angels on TV and then he can see the signal but not hear it. It's like Dean in the first ep of the season.
Is it me or have Jared and Jensen slipped into their accents here? It's kinda cute though.
Sam floipping his hair? It always looks strange.
I like how Dean rolls his eyes every time Jimmy says something.
Dude, Sam looks HUGE there. Did he grow some more?
Oh Sammy no. This is not good. So not good.
He really is a junky.
on a side note, Jared is doing a good job there.
And Jimmy follows him. Nosy guy.. Okay he flees and Sam isn't watching because h is addicted. God, that's sad. Dean will be pissed.
Getting a coke? Oh all the lies. But hey Dean still has his blue toothbrush.
Why am I bored with this?
Jimmy remembering is fine and all but yeah...
Anna.
Oh Dean...
Ginormo.
"Sam, you seem different."
Anna knows. Oh Sammy.
Castiel got dragged back to heaven. Oh boy. Not good either.
In Jimmy's blood? It's all about the blood now. Interesting.
So Jimmy can hear the angels. Okay.
"I am not your father."
*laughs* Nice way to steal a line.. :D
Jimmy's wife kind of reminds me of Alona there.
Ruby has abaSam abandoned Sam? God, Sammy. He is so addicted now. And I thinkt hat's exactly how she needs him whatever her plan is, she needs Sam dependent and halfway out of his mind because of his need and addiction.
Hey, I know this guy from "DeadZone". He always plays bad guys. It sucks when casting spoils most of the fun. Bloody typecasting.
See, I knew. Possessed!guy.
Hi Dean, Hi Sam.
It's not working, he is too weak.
"Can't get it up, can you Sam?"
It's really just the blood. Sam himself is not evil or something.
Sam is fierce and really, really honest there.
Sam hi wiring the car? Yes, that's kinda hot especially with his nonchalance doing it.
Oh.. OH-.. okay I didn't see that coming. She is a demon.
Dean is concerned. Dean is scared for Sam... not by him... not yet.
"I am scaring myself."
God, boys. Look at their faces...
Sam is slurring. Hmmm.. is it Sam or Jared there?
Castiel can't help him. It's kinda sad.
Wondergirl powers. Yeah.
She shot Jimmy. Oh.
Who is she? Castiel? Castiel is a little girl. Okay.
Sam!
No!
God.
He is drinking blood in front of Dean.
The look on Dean's face! Shit.
So it's not only Ruby's blood but any kind of Demon blood. Fuck. That's not good at all.
It's all about the blood.
Ah, so that's how he gets back into the vessel.
"I serve heaven. I don't serve man. And I certainly don't serve you."
I wonder what happened to Castiel that he thinks that now.
Boys not talking. Dean is not talking to Sam. *sniffles*
Dean doesn't want to hear it. It's too much for him. Especially now, with everything going on.
"I am done. I am just done."
That's so sad.
"What's going on?"
"The apocalypse idjit."
A trap. Sammy!
"What's the big demon problem?"
"You are. It's for your own good."
I don't like that. Not at all.
And I get why they are doing it but it's not really all that loving.
And the Soon thing?
Yeah, God.. I don't know what to think.
"You walk out that door you don't ever come back." Right because saying the same thing to Sam when he went to college worked so well for you. Man, I don't know...
It will be epic but that doesn't mean I'll like it.
It will be one hell of a cliffhanger.
Oh and I kind of don't like Dean probably being made into a vessel (looked like it in the preview).
Meeep.
I just want my boys to not fight each other. or well if they do to work together in the end.
But I think Kripke won't do us the favour.. or well me. I don't know but I think season 5 won't be all that happy.
I think he'll keep the boys apart only to let them die together or something. Meeep.
I have to admit that Misha did a good job here. Misha not as Castiel was good, but I am was still bored with half the episode.
The scenes with and between the brothers broke my heart though.
Dean is so desperate and so tired of it all. He just wants his brother back and safe but he doesn't know how to do that anymore.
He hasn't given up, not entirely yet but he is close to the edge and maybe losing Sam hovering so close makes it all so much more worse. Dean really doesn't know what to do anymore.
Sam? Sam is an addict. Sam needs help but I guess he is already too far gone and he really believes that he is doing the right thing. he is trying to safe Dean and kill Lilith. just that the way he has chosen isn't all that good for achieving his goal.
He might actually have the power to kill her but it makes him dependent on other demons and I doubt he will be able to come down from it when Lilith is dead. He will still be an addict.
I am don't know if what Bobby and Dean are doing is helping (an judging from the preview it isn't) but well at least it shows that Sam is just human. He is not evil and I don't get why people actually think he is and can't see what's happening.
Of course you can be pissed at him but well people always find excuses to follow their addiction and Sam isn't any different here. He is human after all. Of course I want to shout at him to stoping doing that to himself and to Dean, but I know he can't help it anymore than any other addict can.
And I don't think Dean is all that much better, Dean has other resources to make himself stronger (and if he goes and makes himself a vessel).
I feel like rambling but that has more to do with fandom than with the show, so I'll stop here.
I think this ep was a good set up for the last two episodes.. but unfortunately nothing more.
It could have been more... but they did nicely focus on Sam's way of doing things and Dean's way of trying to deal with it. Both ways kind of failed. I like the brother-brother moments a lot even if there was not much of Dean. And I liked the sub-plot about the angels, too (for the first time ever).
But I could have gone without some of the Castiel/Jimmy stuff.... I was bored.
Uhm yeah....

no subject
Date: 2009-05-01 12:08 pm (UTC)This was all about choice here and yes Sam is way beyond being able to really choose and he doesn't even realise it anymore. I kind of get where they are going with both Sam and Dean and I don't know if I like it.
Yes, we were headed towards that for a while now and I just hope that there will be SanandDean left afterwards.
It is really painful to watch it all though.
*hugs*
