SPN 5.10

[layne67]

Oh my. That was so, so good it felt like a finale to me. And I can't remember when was the last time I cried watching SPN. Maybe during that episode when the brothers burnt their father's body at the pyre. Or that time when John appeared as a flickering spirit in All Hell Break Loose 2, nodding his approval at Dean. This time I bawled when Ellen and Jo sat together, waiting for their deaths. It's a pity that we won't be seeing them anymore, especially Ellen, but if I were her, I would have done exactly the same as what she did.

i_o_r_h_a_e_l, now I feel silly about my reluctance to watch this episode!

And now, what? Five, six more weeks before the next episode? Aargh!!

they make you really care about a character just before they kill them off?

Ruby 2.0 is an exception, right? Right? :)

Those three eps that they skipped? They're the three of my least favourite eps of season 5!

I wonder who's going to play The Angel of Death. Or whether they're going to cast anyone at all.

And yes, Crowley was awesome! I only knew him from Leverage. Man, didn't expect the show to go there when they showed him kissing that old guy! I'm hoping that that'll be a hint for another kiss that we're all hoping to see, even if it was only a chaste brotherly peck!!

Yes, I LOATHED Ruby 2.0, and even more so just seconds before the boys killed her. That was a very satisfying death scene, wasn't it?

Me, too! The only one that seems like it might be relevant later on is IBTCAOF, and they can recap the antichrist bits briefly in the previouslies to catch people up.

It's an intriguing notion, isn't it? We have the Horseman Death on the devil's side, so maybe the Angel of Death should show up to balance things out. I'd love to see John Dye, who played the most frequently used Angel of Death on Touched By An Angel (and is pretty hot, too). I don't know if they're going to bother going there, though.

It's Mark Sheppard who plays Crowley, the name finally came to me. That was an unexpected scene. So bizarre that the banker would consider selling his soul less painful than kissing a man. I mean, was he that desperate for a hot woman to kiss him that it would be the dealbreaker? I though prostitutes were a bit cheaper than sell-your-soul type rates!
Yes, I'd love it if they'd really show that! Who knows, there's a possibility something like that might happen in one of the upcoming episodes. I have no idea if it will, just that it would be a great opportunity to have a kiss between the boys without the entire incest factor.

Wake me up when it's January 21, okay? :)

Hee hee, I will!

Maybe now's the time to run a marathon for season 5: the story so far. With a few skipped episodes. God, and to think that I really, really looked forward to Curious!

I kind of want to run through the whole series again from the beginning, but where would I find the time? I do have some long weekends coming up with the holidays, but I'm not sure how much time I'll have to myself. I'll be able to catch up with Season 5 with the reruns, and I do have 'em on the fake TiVO, I just haven't felt much like watching any of this season again, with the exception of Changing Channels. Definitely certain scenes here and there, but there's no real urgency to check them for things I might have missed.

I know I must have missed some stuff in Curious, because the poker games made no sense to me, unless I was misreading some of the cards. There just seemed to be too many unexplained things there. In some cases they over-explain, and in others I think they leave too much up to the imagination instead of finishing the story they started.

I still love the show, but mainly because of the brothers, not quite so much the apocalyptic storyline. I had enough apocalypses between Buffy and Angel to last a lifetime!

The storyline per se for Curious is alright, I guess. I don't really mind when an episode doesn't touch on the general mytharc but I thought the whole execution of the whole episode was bad. It was so slow and I was bored to tears watching it :(

Dean and Bobby's interactions were usually amusing, but I did not see the purpose of the dude giving Sam VD! There must have been plenty of other ways to curse Sam that were humiliating, but in a different way.
