Dean looked like a little boy playing dress-up
I thought he pulled it off pretty well. I mean, when he wasn't talking about the movies.
Buffy: Synchronized slaying. Faith: New Olympic category?
'Conversations with Dead People'
Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?

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

One little quibble I have with the otherwise stellar show is that it involved yet another god from the Eastern hemisphere spending time in America and westernizing themselves despite no connection to the locale. In "Scarecrow" and "Hammer of the Gods" there were sensible reasons for them to be here, but for Leshii, Veritas. Chronos, Osiris, and the duo from "A Very Supernatural Christmas" it just seems out of place. (Though I did appreciate that Osiris presented as foreign.) Why not use Native American or Mesoamerican gods that would be far more logically active on these shores?

Then they wouldn't have gone back to the 1940s.

Wasn't Chronos' point that he was not where he was supposed to be? In terms of worshippers, etc, he was doing all this to perpetuate an artificial state. He has no worshippers, why does he have to be anywhere in particular?
And on the flip side, why does any god have to be anywhere in particular? If you count them all up, it's still a dramatic minority that we've encountered in America.

Because books.
Also, he was in love, with a girl who lived in Canton, OH.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I think all the food Jared's eating is going to support his hair, which is also leaching energy from his body. He's getting all skinny again. Verging on pencil neck. I didn't like his look when he was at his beefiest, but I don't like to think of him as Hollywood-thin, either.
I'm still wide-eyed over, "So are you going to watch more cartoon smut or are you strictly into Dick now?" And Sam's smirk!
I've looked, but I can't find the cite, dammit. Jensen was asked, in one of those spot video interviews, whether Dean is strictly straight. His reply: "Oh, Dean's about as straight as a slinky."

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
Thanks for a new kink, Sera. Seriously. I knew about the cowboy thing before it ever happened, but this is new for me.
I've learned so much about myself this season. I knew that Dean in a suit did it for me, but this particular cut with this particular hat seems to be the magic combination.
I think I just had a wayne's world fantasy about Dean with a tommygun in front of a vintage 1940's gangster car. Maybe even standing on the running board. Damn, that man looks fine in vintage clothes.
J Doh in 40's garb isn't bad either.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Dean catching sight of himself in the mirror in his suit? Awesome indeed.

I do like that he knows how good he looks.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I just had a horrible discovery: Jared's sideburns are taking over his dimples. This cannot stand.
Think about it: HAIRY DIMPLES.
Nick Lea was delightful as Ness, and I adored Ezra, and hope she shows up in AU fics. Shoot, Ness can show up in AU fics.
Dean doing Sean Connery! I had to go rewatch the train steps scene from The Untouchables, man, what a good scene. ::hearts Andy Garcia::
