Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Yep, Zachariah gave Dean memories of people who actually do care about him. He gave Sam the memory of a woman he tried to save and then failed and feels tremendous guilt about it, and then had to kill. (sucky grammar, but you get my point.) Although I did have to snort at Sam calling and reaching an Animal Hospital. Zachariah could at least have given him Sarah, a happy memory. (I'm assuming that back in the real world, both Dean and Sam will remember their lives within Dean's Object Lesson.) And neither one of the guys mentioned John or Mary.

And the deputy mayor of Sunnydale was in this episode! Seems to be the week for sighting Buffyverse alum on various shows.

I was just happy we had proof that someone on the writing staff remembered Jo and Ellen existed.
I found this episode dreadfully anvilicious. It was funny, though. But the hammering away on how Winchesters are Better than office drones got a bit old.
And I really didn't like the security guy dying in the elevator and Sam making a crack about taking the stairs. ::twitches::

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sam was much of the emotional driver for this episode--he just doesn't need as much selling as Dean. But he did the dragging this ep, and I think it came off well. They just haven't struggled together so much.
I liked this. I found it fun. Rice milk lattes! Prius.

Oh, the Prius and the NPR was a kick.
Still, given Dean's usual diet, I bet three weeks on a low-fat cleansing binge probably did him some good. *g*

Also talking of attitudes, maybe the Angels need to work on theirs. Shorter Castiel's boss: "You spent 40 years in hell. You were almost killed thanks to our screwup in delegating authority to Uriel. We just inflicted a new trauma so you could stop whining and get over it."

"You spent 40 years in hell. You were almost killed thanks to our screwup in delegating authority to Uriel. We just inflicted a new trauma so you could stop whining and get over it."
It's always been made pretty clear that the angels have No Clue when it comes to dealing with humans. (Castiel is finding a clue, bless 'im.)
As for Sam, I think what's important is that we get the same feeling that, no matter where you put him, Sam is and always will be a hunter. I'm hoping that they're pointing it out so that later, when Sam is tempted to go evil, that's how he'll resist and/or eventually come back.
As an Ohioan, I was sad that there was never a reference to where they were at. (For obvious reasons, I know, but I like Ohio shoutouts where I can get them.)
