If the angels and God can know what much, what's stopping them from using their power to smite Azazel?

It's against the rules of the Gehenna Convention?

But seriously, there seem to be a lot of rules and regulations attached to the powers of good and ill that don't apply to humans. (Which is standard convention for fictional angels and demons, at least in the books I read. I'm having Good Omens flashbacks.)

But is Sam a sacrificial mole? Is his role to be the beacon, or whatever, and he has no agency or destiny of his own?

My crack-addled theories aside, I think that's our arc this season.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Even stern and implacable good guys can't damn a person with no possibility of redemption.

It's so unfair considering how ready Sam is to believe in the side of good.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

This is my problem with not knowing what rules apply to which ... creatures, I guess. If the angels and God can know what much, what's stopping them from using their power to smite Azazel?

I think smiting Azazel wouldn't necessarily stop the end game, since it's still going on two years after Dean killed him.

Because books.

I think smiting Azazel wouldn't necessarily stop the end game, since it's still going on two years after Dean killed him.

Oooh, true.

Yeah, I think I may have had too much wine to watch another episode (coherently anyway) tonight.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I think I'm going to play Faith because it's on the same disc, but I may not make it all the way through the episode.

It's so nice to be so satisfied with show again.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

If not satisfied, then at least not sad, frustrated and betrayed.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I'm not sure I was as disappointed as you, Bev, but I really wasn't going to buy Season Three on DVD. I only broke down because of the Impala model. The dvds though, they are still in the plastic.

I am a completist, so I'll have to get Season Three. But only after they start doing some crazy discounting.

I watched the featurettes and the gag reel. I couldn't not.

S3 has a handful of really good episodes that I will, of course, rewatch. I love Dream a Little Dream, Mystery Spot, and A Very Supernatural Christmas as much as anything. I have a more mixed affection for JIB, and a sheepish adoration for Ghostfacers.
