And I always get a squee when Sam whips out his lockpick set.
It's the competence thing. And also? Hot.
American Gods, much?
All I am saying is that they better bring back Adam Jesse. You want to get this much of your Gaiman on, you bring back the awesome kid actor.
Don't get me wrong, I liked the episode a lot, and think it did some interesting things. (And oh, Gabriel! Whaaah!) But the killing of the other deities and the borrowing homage of American Gods pinged me hard.
I want Gabriel back (and the gods too, but especially Gabriel).
Maybe this will be the thing that gets God back in the game, and he'll start by resurrecting Gabriel (and the gods)
Why is Ganesh a Black dude?
That confused me too.
Matt Frewer! Hell yes!
That's who that was! I knew he looked familiar.
Still, Ganesh? Really? I can see Odin getting all bloodthirsty, and Kali getting messy, but Ganesh? Baldur?
Maybe he was just there for the beheadings. They give him nostalgia. And angst.
But now I feel weirdly sad about the people WITH NO GODS.
I know! I mean, that was a lot of gods killed right there.
I did like the idea that the old gods were annoyed about the Judeo-Christian apocalypse threatening to destroy the planet.
Yeah, I felt like their intent was in the right place (and like Jilli, there was a lot I liked), but the writing sort of fell short of that, and I'm avoiding the rest of the Internets, as I don't have the brainbandwidth.

I would be fine if God brought back Gabriel. That kind of makes sense. But if they go the route of the Judeo-Christian god resurrecting a bunch of other deities, my head will possibly explode with rage.
That is a good point, Jilli. I take it back--I want them to resurrect themselves.
I take it back--I want them to resurrect themselves.
They are going to need an elephant and a lot of spare arms.
Did anyone else think Dean (Jensen?) looked a lot better rested this ep that he has in a while?
I thought he looked younger and fresher than he has in ages.
