See, I have thoughts about the episode order, but I'm going to have to come back to them because I have to go to work. Stupid work.
I was under the impression that I was your big comfy blanky.

Either that or little girls are just creepy, which they are in horror-movie-land. I saw Poltergeist.
I think they're going for a twofold whammy: showing how evil this particular demon lord is by having it choose the most innocent and apparently harmless host possible, and jumping on the bandwagon of recent über-creepy children in films and TV. You know, Samara from The Ring, Charlotte from Blade, the Girl in the White Room from Angel, Dakota Fanning...

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
So they switched the episode order? I missed that part of the discussion in skipping and skimming. If the intended viewing order was tonights episode first, then Trickster that is an overwhelming point for your view.

Kripke felt that Jus in Bello was a better "season ender" if it had to be - or "hiatus starter". . as it is.

Jus in Bello is more cliffhangery, I agree, but getting my heart torn out by Mystery Spot would have been pretty awesome.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
There are ways to have an opinion that are nicer than this, though.
True. I apologize.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I do like the white eyes, though. If the hierarchy is, as they've led us to believe, black-eyed random low-level demons, red-eyed crossroads demons, yellow-eyed higher-level demons, of whom we've only seen Azazel, now this potential ruler of hell has singular blind white eyes. It makes me wonder if a demon is born to a level or a class, in the SPN mythos, or can work its way up through the levels of hell.

The rules of jus in bello (or justice in war) serve as guidelines for fighting well once war has begun. Some maintain that morality does not exist in warfare, and therefore object to just war theory. War is hell, the argument goes, and one is entitled to do whatever is necessary to ensure victory for one's own side. Just war theory, on the other hand, sets forth a moral framework for warfare and rejects the notion that "anything goes" during times of war. Belligerent armies are entitled to try to win, but they cannot do anything that is, or seems, necessary to achieve victory.[1] There are restraints on the extent of harm, if any, that can be done to noncombatants, and restraints on the weapons of war.[2] These restraints aim to limit war once it has begun.

Ha. Zap2it called last night's episode the "season finale." That's not good.
