layne67Colours! Glorious, wonderful, gorgeous colours. Smith and Wesson. Like the guns! Oh boy, those angels sure do have a fine sense of humour.
And Dean's parents are Bob and Ellen! He eats salad, and drinks fruit juice! And drives a hybrid! Sam sitting hunched in that too-small cubicle! The sexual tension! Did anyone else feel that? The Ghostfacers! And I'm using way too many exclaimation marks!!
And I've always wanted to see Dean in a normal surrounding, a nice house, a good, normal job. There was WIASNB of course but that wasn't quite the same because Dean knew something was wrong then. Here he's the genuine thing, well, almost genuine. And sooo pretty!!
*takes deep breath*
I thought it was a fine episode, and a good way to show a Dean who has recovered from the trauma at the slaughter-house. No h/c but we already have those in the fanfics, and a happy!Dean ...
I must say I didn't think it was the angels doing all that though. I thought it might be the Trickster. Or just them having a dream. That company was called Dream something after all.
I love this episode and I think Jensen did a wonderful job potraying a yuppy professional, and his transformation at the end there back to Dean the hunter was simply brilliant.
And how awesome was it that I wasn't spoiled at all for that episode and I got my full dose of wonderful, GLORIOUS surprises!!
Oh no, only 5 episodes left :(

ETA : I've been reading other people's reactions to this episode, and no surprise, fandom is again divided. My take is that Dean needed to hear what the angel had to say at the end there. He was broken at the end of OTHOAP, he had no will nor the desire to have anything to do with the apocalypse. I don't think he even want to hunt anymore. He wasn't listening to Castiel, and he probably wasn't listening to Sam either. So the angels gave him that alternate scenario, life without hunting, and have him experience it firsthand for himself. The whinging part was harsh, yes, but again, Dean needed to be jolted from his ... stupor, his apathy. I don't think it was meant to be taken literally, that Dean was whining and stuff. He needs to get into his groove and I think the angel, what was his name, Zachariah? succeeded where Castiel and Sam failed. And anyway, the show could never compete with the codas / fillers / h/c written by the fanfic writers here so I'm more than happy to get my supply of those here on LJ!
ETA 2 : And I DON'T think show is saying that Dean is whiny. There's only two references to that, one was Sam under the spell of the siren, and the other one last night by Zachariah, and like I said, that shouldn't be taken too literally.
