Morgana, I was a little bit bored too, enen though the actor totally did have a lot of Dean down. It just took a little while for that to grow on me. I got into it after a while.
Man, Beaver and Ackles can rock an emotional scene, can't they?
And then, riveted. The Ackles sure can bring it.
And I loved Sam in the poker game.
Using
the emo, rather than letting it run roughshod over him. And doesn't that tie in nicely with the scene a few weeks ago and Dean's speech about how they're each others' weakness and everyone knows it.
I also loved Sam
not
being emo about Dean's agedness, and not letting up on giving him shit about it for a moment.
There were a lot of excellent lines tonight, too.
"It's like Mission: Pathetic."
"You're going to need to put down that cheeseburger."
"You're adorable." "And dangerous!"
And the Emperor Palpatine and grumpy old men lines, too.

I take back a little of what I said about bored because Bobby and old Dean bickering totally made me realize how much Bobby and actual Dean bicker like a couple of old men.
Loved the episode. LOVED! I loved no angels, no demons, no apocalypse--just Boys and Bobby and reasserting the fundamentals of Supernatural: family. I even liked Patrick! Total babe! ::Happy Sigh::
Padalecki was good to watch in the poker game, too. He's getting so much better at holding all that emotion inside when the camera's close in. He's going to be as good as Ackles. I betcha.
Bobby is Oracle now. Duh.
Bobby is Oracle now. Duh.
I'm sorry, but I need to scrub my brain, because you made me picture him having sex with Nightwing.
CURSE YOU, SUNIL!
Oh my God, you creeped Plei out with a pairing! How is that even possible?!?

It's totally possible! Joss Whedon did it with Angel/Cordy.
