I'm really surprised by commentators I see voicing things like:
The boys are HAPPY right now and communicating... I DON'T TRUST IT.
Either Jensen needs acting lessons or some folks need new TVs. Or glasses. I mean...what is happening on their show?
Yeah, Dean is all angst right now. So, business as usual.
I have a feeling Ezekiel is sincerely healing Sam, but having some unintended side-effects.
It could be that Ezekiel is doing something to Sam to make him feel happy because he thinks it's a good thing. He may not understand that sometimes it's good to feel negative emotions.
Bah. I want evil Zeke. Where's your sense of unrepentant tragedy?
I could easily buy an evil Ezekiel. Angels sharing names with prophets, that can't be entirely good.
And it's the one that was assumed into heaven that's used as rationale for why Chuck isn't god, despite the writers saying he is (which makes the opener to season five plain WEIRD--check it out).
Oh, thanks! I knew there was something I wanted to go back and watch with that in mind but I wasn't sure what.
I think Dean used to deny his fatherly instincts out of habit, but since Ben I think he's really afraid to get that close again. He treats Charlie and Kevin and Cas much more as siblings.
Charlie and Kevin, for sure. Cas... gets less mothering from him than a brother would. (I do use that word intentionally, because he did effectively serve as Sam's mom, and it shows in how he brothers.)
Whenever there's a teen hunter, I totally get the protective motherly vibe from him. It's adorable.
