Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think I may have emotional incontinence because I both laughed and wept as I surfed Asylum vids.

OMG, their hair looks good in the offseason. Jared's is crazy long, and Jensen's is sexy messy. I wonder what Misha's looks like right now.

You people who are missing the finale are FAKE fans. FAKE FAKE FAKE.

Okay, so who kidnapped Ben and Lisa? Crowley? Random other people that hate Dean? Lay your bets, people.

Also, is Lovecraft 6x21, or 6x22?

Because books.

I haven't watched the longer previews yet. Is there a Sera one? I'm chicken.

I'm also having a hard time believing Dean doesn't know who Lovecraft is, because he totally would.

I find it surprising that there would be any popular monster mythos the boys wouldn't know about. But why let that get in the way of a good line?

Gamble promo.

Oh, I did watch that one. Never mind.

I'm going to say Crowley kidnapped Lisa and Ben off the top of my head, because it makes sense.

It's also sad that other than Bobby, there's no one else to use as leverage against the boys now. Unless they were to randomly hunt up Sarah, and that's not really the same thing emotionally.

I watched it again this morning and wondered if I'd seen it before, or I just knew all that stuff already. Now I recall we've had an extra week, so I probably saw it last week. Duh.

I think it's too late in the game to have anyone else pop up as a threat, so Crowley makes efficient sense.

I recall writers saying they had so much to wrap up at the end of the episode they split the wrapping into two episodes. But I don't get what all they need to do...

War in heaven (includes Crowley and Purgatory), and Sam's wall. What am I missing?

I would add Lisa and Ben in there. The last episode with them never felt like an ending to that storyline, even if emotionally Dean was supposed to be done with them (or them with him).

Wrapping up could also mean seeding whatever is going to happen next season, too.

I was totally done with Lisa and Ben, myself. I thought it made sense, what Lisa said, and Dean's issues will take longer than the series to resolve. I'm not excited to see them back, not least of all because they were unlikely to get fridged offscreen.

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

Oh my goodness. Watching those Asylum clips on youtube could fill the rest of my day.

Jensen talking about filming for Kim Manners, "Suck it up, Ackles!" Heh, and awww.

The bigger part of me just thinks that there's a Jewish writer on staff. A smaller part hopes that there is some in-character reason for the expressions that seem outside of Dean's ken.

Well, you can always have both. Supernatural has had a lot of Jewish writers on staff. Gamble, for one, and Carver. I think Kripke and Singer are Jewish, as well, though unlike Gamble and Carver, I've never seen/heard/read them talking about it. So there's your Doylest reason, but that doesn't stop there from being a Watsonian explanation.
