Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Padalecki brought the chops in this ep. Finally getting a chance to shine, as *evol*. And how much do I heart Bobby? Thiiiiiiiiiiiss much.
What she said.
Dear lord, what did they do to Jo this ep? Why is she being so dumb?
Why is evil always so hot?
And there weren't even leather pants involved!
Oh Cash, I think I'd have done the same. Damn--pilot ep, crib mobile moving, eep.
The on/off Sam flickering was just amazing. And for the first time I really *got* just how big JP is, how powerful he could be if he wasn't all playing puppy and making himself small and inoffensive. He was physically intimidating, and the speed of persona change was just very well done, I thought.
I agree, Beverly. He showed more acting chops this ep than I thought he had.
Sam was scary tonight. I was impressed.
I wasn't bothered by Jo, except for the whole cell in one hand, flashlight in the other, no weapon to be seen instance. Because that was just dumb.
I did love how they didn't even need to show Dean stealing a car to drive to Minnesota after Sam.
Loved the motel with the salmon motif.
However, my theory that Sam cannot be possessed by a demon is now shot to hell, damnit.
Sam was scary tonight. I was impressed.
So was I, Consuela. It didn't even occur to me until halfway through the episode that, like, I should find the idea of Sam being all evil and creepy sort of laughable because, you know, SAM. But he totally pulled it off.

Hey, what about that demon virus he was immune to? So he's immune to that but not straight-up possession? And can someone tell me why, if there are these little charms that protect against demonic possession, Sam and Dean were not carrying them from the beginning ?
The promo was fucking awesome. These are all Kripke's doing, right? Because the CW is not that creative.
Sam's possession makes up for his lame drunkenness in the possessed inn episode. He was really good.
Dean was a doll, and so Samwise Gamgee it hurt.
Jo...well, at least she didn't follow Dean. Even if they'd made her the rescuer, well, Dean is allowed to not listen to Sam, but people should listen to Dean. Especially if they're not related.
Bobby rocks.
How tall is Alona Tal? Both boys made her look wee tonight.
IMDb says she's 5' 4".
I was really impressed by Paddiwack last night. It looked like he put on 30 pounds of upper body muscle in a blink, just by how he held himself. And his facial expressions were constantly interesting. As Sam I don't find him nearly as interesting as Dean, but as Evol-demonically-possessed-Sam I find him fascinating.
