looong one today
I have to hand it to Sera in a major way for this episode. Not even because of the obvious reasons, but because it was such a quiet build up it sort of snuck up on you, you know? In the beginning, you're still thinking of Nightshifter, and the boys are being funny and snarky - Dean especially was hysterical - so you're not really thinking about how much the rest of the stuff is going to fucking gut you. And then the Scene with the boys on the church stairs talking to Father comes along and that conflict between Dean and Sam just gets you right in the chest.
It doesn't stop there, of course, and it just keeps building, one thing on top of the other until the last scene, and by that time you're about ready to crack right along with Sam. On that vein, Jared, oh, Jared, that scene was so lovely. You didn't overplay it, you didn't do anything but have Sam quietly fall apart, and that was - oh. You and Jensen really knocked me out.
Other things I liked, in no particular order, because order is beyond me right now:

- The beginning totally confirms my feeling that televangelists are creepy and/or evil. The whole thing with the TV not turning off? That is like HELL for me.
- Sam in scrubs! White scrubs! With his earnest face! I kept having these lovely mental images of him manhandling patients. Also, 'coocoo for cocoa puffs!' Awesome.
- The entire scene with the vibrating bed, and Sam being uncomfortable about Dean "enjoying" it too much and and! The unicorns! Rainbows come out their asses! ♥
- Was the thing with the angels in the yards ever explained? Or was that just a sort of coincidence? Because, man:
Anney: well. i'm never putting angel stuff in my yard.
Mel: yeah, apparently that's just asking for it
Anney: GOD DOES NOT APPROVE OF TACKY ANGEL DECORATIONS!
Mel: BUT WHAT ABOUT REINDEERZ
Anney: AS LONG AS IT HAS A RED NOSE FROM CRACK SMOKING WE'RE OKAY!
Anney: GOD APPROVES OF REINDEER ON CRACK
Mel: OH GOOD I'M SAFE - Sam as a hack is at once adorable and blindingly hot. I can't figure out why. It might be his fingers? Which are long and agile and long and flexible. Mm.
- The scene with the creepy angel statue shaking in place? Dude, that was frickin' sweet. And \o/ we got Dean fisting his fingers in Sam's shirts!
- DIVINE BAT SIGNAL!!!!!! That is all.
- You know, throughout the entire episode I was sort of like >< at Sam, because he was being kind of persistantly annoying about the angel thing, but after the last scene, the desperation makes sense and I kind of want to squish him into my bosom. Oh, honey.
- Typically, Anney and I can't stay serious for a long period of time, though:
Anney: GOD DOES NOT APPROVE OF BUYING ROSES!
Mel: OR PAPER BAGS, OH WATCH OUT SAM
Anney: OH NOES! SAM IS RIDING THE LINE OF EVIL!
Mel: TACKLE HIM DEAN
Anney: SAVE HIM FROM THE EVIL THAT IS PAPER BAGS! - Sam, when he got caught out with his seance! Hahahaha! "Please, Father, I can explain!" and then, "Maybe I can't explain." And how he tried to say it was based on an early Christian rite! ♥, oh Sam.
- The hell was with that 'date rapist'! "Sorry, I've never done this before"?! I'm sure that made the poor girl feel SO MUCH BETTER.
- I think we had a theme tonight. Or at least Anney did. God is a very disapproving diety:
Mel: WHY DO THESE COMMERCIALS TAKE SO LONG
Anney: CAUSE GOD DOESN'T APPROVE OF OUR LOVE! - I don't even really have anything else to say about the last scene, because no matter what some people are saying about it, it blew me the hell away. I was sitting with one hand slapped across my mouth for pretty much the entire thing, and I might have gone slightly glassy eyed. Shh.

*gives you tons of cookies*

I was very WTF in the face about that part too. Like, okay, I can get it if your uncomfortable but SLAPPING a chick? EVERYONE KNOWS THAT IS NOT A WAY TO MAKE A GIRL WANT TO FUCK YOU. Unless the girl likes that sort of thing, then... go for it!
because no matter what some people are saying about it
omg, please don't tell me people are bad mouthing it. I don't think I've ever loved Sam more than at that moment.
