[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.
I really liked that ep, which makes me happy, because I'd been kind of not into it so far this season. It helps that I lurve the actor who plays Cain, and it sounds like he'll be back. He was straight up scary powerful but understated about it. Like. It was an interesting story, and I like that Crowley was manipulating things the whole time.
Also enjoyed Sam and Cas. The hug back time was cute.
I liked the twist on the Cain & Abel origin story (Dear Supernatural, you're making it increasingly hard to fake appropriate reactions to Abrahamic Lore. See also: angels). I disliked the Because Twue Wov. Can we shelf that trope? Preferably along with all use of clips of the restaurant scene from When Harry Met Sally.
I had moments of "Lassie!" but I like what he did with the part.
Dear Dean Winchester, Even if you are going to agree anyway, when someone tells you there are strings attached, find out what those strings are. That way, you cut down on the unpleasant surprises later. Further, don't keep promising to kill Crowley. He's the best of all possible alternatives for leadership of Hell (unless you want to go all Sandman and put Cas in charge).
I liked Cas's epiphany. And I liked the two teams, as far as mixing things up a bit.

Yes, that too.
I was just wandering around IMDB, the way you do, and found this description for the last episode:
While looking for an item to help the recovery of Sam, Dean and Castiel come across a case involving a monster kidnapping first born children. Meanwhile, Crowley looks up the aid of an old friend named Cain to help fight Abaddon and her forces.
Only 2 sentences, and yet so wrong in so many ways.
Thomas looks so much like his daddy. And the baby has Jared's nose, too! Shep Padalecki. I like it.
I know I'm crossing canon and RL streams, but that pic of Tom and Shep just reminds me of the one of little Dean holding baby Sam from the box they found in the basement in Home. I guess every family has pictures like that of the kids. Which is sort of my point.
They're darling kids, and they have doting, proud parents.
Did anyone watch?
It's disheartening that the "renewed commitment to each other" from the church is already over. But it's also disheartening that they've now turned Sam's gratitude and love into bitterness (not that he's not entitled, since closing the doors to hell really is more important than Dean having Sam to ride shotgun).
If they could have ended S8 another way (still without closing the gates of hell, since that leaves not a lot of plot for Show), instead of deciding to have -- again -- Dean selfishly choosing his love for his brother that ruined the plan, I feel like this season could have been better. Or different, anyway.
I'm going to have to write a song about how I can't stop watching, but it's just not the same anymore.
Jesus, I forgot the most important thing of all -- Dean is more bearded now! Like, actual beard, not just the shadow of stubble. I APPROVE SO HARD.

I think I get it on Hulu+ tomorrow. But it's not the same for me, sadly. I want to love the show the same way I used to.

Kinda loving this part though.

I echo your approval. I was captivated by the beard. And I'm not normally a beard person.
