I might have had to watch it early. I LOVED IT! I loved it ASSCAPS ALOT! I even loved Kripke!God.
I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

What ehab said. I'm lost for words honestly.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I find I'm a bit nonplussed about God's role in this. Not God-as-Chuck, but the father of Michael and Lucifer who tested Sam and Dean while letting Lucifer and Michael throw themselves into a trap. I'm not sure what the point was, or if there even was a point.
I also wanted a better idea of what was going on with Castiel. Was he overtly made head of the Host, or was he simply going to try to restore some order.
I really, really hope some of this is revisited in S6.
I liked the episode a lot, for what it's worth, but at the same time, I kind of wish they'd had an extra half-hour to add some more depth to a few scenes. My other wish has less to do with the episode itself than with S5 as a whole--I wish we had had more time to get to know Adam, and Michael, and even Lisa.

Also, how much did I love the role the Impala played in the whole thing?
THIS MUCH (edit: pretend these two words are really, really large...)
The army man, the legos, even the way Chuck told its story. Even though a few parts of the ep have me scratching my head, Metallicar had me all choked up. As did Dean driving into the middle of the Michael-Lucifer showdown blasting Def Leppard. That had me laughing and crying at the same time.

Well, at least Castiel has been re-hymenated.

Because books.
That had me laughing and crying at the same time.
Me, too. But also Sam and Cas in the beginning. "Oh, I was supposed to lie?" Sam's faaaace. So much love. Cracking up with tears streaming down my face.

The more I think about it, the more it hurts that Dean, Bobby, and Cas have gone their separate ways.

I think I'm okay with the mechanics of God's plan not being explained. I'm good with that being one of those pockets that fanfic can fill.
The impala's story was a wonder and I loved that entry point into the story. I am so glad they filmed some bits of them as kids growing up and living in the car.
I think Kripke's diminutive show was something so beyond his own expectations that he wanted to give a gift to fans. I didn't see the ego mania in God so much as I saw a kind of wondrous awe at what had been created. I think he did a lovely job resolving the apocalypse storyline and leaving them in a great place for S6.
I might be feeling a little gushy, but I guess I was worried it couldn't live up to my expectations.
