So we'll have 7 or 8 minutes for the roadside chat where Dean is angsty and Sam doesn't say anything? Or tonight maybe Sam gets to have the emo tear.

The show is losing a lot of people evidently.

Because books.
It was probably too late to add the title card for this week.
Wow, way to make me cry, new writers. Sheesh.
Saaaaaaaaaamy...
And Dean, too. Poor noodle.

Maybe it was just too soon for them to get the trailer updated. I'm sure they would have if they could have.

Refreshing change for the episode ender.
I didn't think the actor who played young Dean did well at all... trying way too hard to be all superficial Danny Zuko-ish, and he looked like he would grow up to be Hugh Laurie, not Jensen Ackles. They should have just cut out his parts and featured Mini-Sam (who was amazing) and the modern day stuff.

I agree that teen!Sam was awesome.

I liked young!Dean for the most part (though I didn't buy him shouting lamely "I'm a hero!"), especially for the insight that he thought Sam must have hated that school because he did. I also liked that it reinforced why he preferred the hunter life and Sam preferred being a Muggle.

Wow... Great episode!
I agree with everyone here: Colin Ford is a phenomenal Young Sam. He really did a great job not only playing older than his actual years, but playing Sammy as a boy with an old soul.
I think within the context of a younger, more shallow and thoughtless Dean, Brock Kelly did well. It sure reinforced the idea that, with the exception of his one girlfriend in Route 666 (and a one-night-stand with an angel), Dean never connects with anyone on an emotional level. Except Sam. It also emphasized that even though the brothers are more than four years apart, they were best friends and confidantes. It sure drew out how much the two have lost a lot over the years - including themselves, and to some extent, each other.
This episode really brought back the Sam I first saw - the Sam on the cusp of making a life for himself. Sam's reaction to his teacher's question at the end of the episode was heartbreaking.
Terrific episode from start to finish!

Art Crawl!!!
I really enjoyed it too. Colin Ford? Excellent job. What a heartbreaking story.
And I have to admit that I was surprised at the two non-Kim Manners people they dedicated the show to - this show is having some sad times.
