'Out Of Gas'
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
I can't do the watch and post, unless it's previously-viewed. It's sort of like watching smonster dance, I'm so absorbed in watching I can't comment.
I sort of blurt afterwards, and if I can re-watch and post, I can usually manage to mutter something or other.

So, that's what we're calling it now, okay?
Hee.
Okay - hollywood or hollyrood refers to rowan trees not holly?
Samulet works for me!
One minor quibble from last night. Are we supposed to think that John not only went off for a multi-day hunt without his Journal, but he also left it where Sam could find it?

I think Sneaky Sam stole it. My handwavium is that he noticed his dad packing it away, and snuck it out of the bags while Dad was in the bathroom. Dad got to the hunt, realized it wasn't there, but couldn't exactly turn around again. Lives, they were at stake!
Hey, who has the writer credit on this one?
SAMULET!!!!!
Sam's face, when Dean walks in, trying so hard. Wanting to make it a good memory, wanting to make his brother's last Christmas the best. These guys kill me. They just do.
Indeed.
The thing that pulled me out was the meta of how Kripke & Co. are so adamant that John Was A Bad Father, and it seemed like John being absent for the Wee!chester Christmas is their way of pointing and going "See! Bad Father!" Kind of a lite version of Spike in Seeing Red. Which, I don't have a problem with the interpretation of John as a bad father (well, I do, but I'm trying very hard to go with Authorial Intent), but it was a little anvil-icious. For me.
HOWEVER - Wee!chester casting? Fucking BRILLIANT.
Fingernail getting pulled?? AUGH.

I think if Dad had actually done this he would not have survived to 52. Also, if he happened to have done this on this particular hunt, and returned in something approximating one piece, Sam would not have survived to age 10.
Putting a member of your family in grave danger due to fuckheadedness (non-emergency curiosity and theft) is one of the few justifications I can think of for serious corporal punishment, and I'm not even a Marine.

I think if he'd needed the hunters version of an open book test after almost a decade of doing it, he wouldn't have survived until 52.

You mean Jeremy Carver.
