And because [livejournal.com profile] i_o_r_h_a_e_l has hers, I want to have mine too!

My Top Ten scenes from season 5. Only I couldn't do ten as there are scenes that I just cannot not include. So here you go, in no particular order, my thirteen most memorable scenes which range from the uber painful to the uber hilarious. And what-do-you-know, two of them do not include Dean *gasps*

Photobucket


There is painful and there is angsty. These first three scenes are definitely painful they hurt on so many levels. The phrase cut like a knife doesn't even begin to describe how I felt when watching these.

Sympathy For The Devil : The brothers at the hospital parking lot where my hopes of them making-up were dashed to the ground when Dean said, "I tried Sammy, but I can't keep pretending that everything is alright. It's never going to be."
Photobucket

Good God, Y'All. Sam : Maybe it's best that we go our separate ways.
And Dean said yes. No fight, no argument. And, and ... omg ... when Dean offered the Impala to Sam ... *cries*
Photobucket

Free To Be You And Me. This was a gorgeous sequence, Dean on his own, Sam on his own, perfect juxtaposition between those two. And it was like an arrow straight to the heart.

Ahh, Lucifer's first scene with Sam. And what an intense moment that was. And quite easily ( for me ), Jared's best performance of season 5, the whole show even. And Mark Pellegrino, that was actually the moment when I first thought that he was perfect as Lucifer. The tone of his voice, his expressions - perfect, as was Jared's. And when Jess's face transformed to Nick's, that was super, super creepy.
Photobucket

Two Deans! We had had two Deans before, a short scene in Dream A Little Dream Of Me but this was one whole episode! Thank you, Kripke. Another perfect, intense scene.
Photobucket

The End. And here we have Lucifer!Sam saying, "Why would I want to kill this beautiful thing. The last, perfect handiwork of God." Eeeee, why did I had this feeling he was actually talking about Dean. He wasn't, I guess, but it felt like it, the way he was holding that rose, glancing over his shoulder at Dean ( cue lightning and thunder ). And his chilling parting shot, "Whatever you do, whatever details you alter, we will always end up here. I win." Fairly gave me goosebumps, that he did.
Photobucket

A thrilling scene worthy of any action movie, Dean being chased by the Croats, then shot at by the army. Heart-stopping much? You bet.
Photobucket

Free To Be You And Me. The Cas and Dean Show. Oh Cas, how I adore you. But you know, even though I love him, I've never got any slashy vibe between them, affection and respect, yes, but nothing remotely sexual. Until Dean went and fixed Cas's tie. It was like a flashbulb moment for me, finally getting why there're so many Cas/Dean shippers. I still don't ship them ( Sam/Dean is still my OTP thank you very much ) but I got it. I laughed out loud and long when Cas tried to impersonate an FBI agent ( or rather, Dean tried to get him to impersonate one ). Awesome!
Photobucket

Changing Channels. The whole episode is one awesome, hilarious scene, one after another. Dean squirming in the presence of Dr Sexy, the CSI parody, complete with the slow-mo and sunglasses and all. And Dean driving Sampala! Better than the original and the remake put together oh yes :)
Photobucket

Abandon All Hope. I am a mother and a daughter so this scene is doubly angsty for me. It wasn't painful the way the first three scenes were. Those had me screaming nooooooooooo, but this one had a sense of inevitability to it, of finality. No way Ellen could have left Jo there all alone. Just. No. Great performance by Samantha Ferris and Alona Tai.
Photobucket

The End. The Phone Call. Sam saying, "Dean it's me." I stopped breathing for a moment there I tell you. A phone call that surpassed the one in Scarecrow, the one in Last Distance Call. There was such a resignation to Dean, of hope all but crushed in Sam. I was crying inside for both of them, but again, this felt different from the first three scenes above. It was painful, but somehow not ... heart-breaking. I can't quite explain it. Dean saying, "Whatever we have between us, love, family ..." Or maybe because there was no anger in them, in Dean, just ... resignation. Or maybe it was just me projecting my own acceptance/resignation to Sam and Dean going their separate ways, less of the denial and anger of before. Maybe.
Photobucket
Photobucket

Another Cas and Dean moment. It was just so awww-inducing, so heart-warming that I felt like wrapping them both in a warm, fuzzy blanket. When Dean said to Cas "Don't ever change", and when Cas said "We had an appointment" with that look on his face - *happy sigh* - love and affection ...
Photobucket

Okay, if I had to choose only one scene, this would be It. It has such a surreal feel to it. And oh, I've been wanting this since forever. Better than the reunion scene in Lazarus Raising, more heart-felt somehow, even without the hug-that-never-happened. Dean's first word, "Sam", said with a slight tremble to his voice. "We're all that we've got. We keep each other human. We make our own future." Perfect.
Photobucket
Side note : Ahaha, Dean is so what the guys in Flash Forward need lol.

Thank you to [livejournal.com profile] oxoniensis and [livejournal.com profile] raloria for the lovely caps!.

I agree with your moments. We have seen 10 episodes so far and they all caught us in our minds and hearts.

he was actually talking about Dean

He wasn't? I mean, I forget the other lines. What was he talking about actually?

But - wheeeeeeeeeeeee!

Awesome scenes. :D There are just too many scenes I love and I keep thinking, oh, right, that one. Guh, I forgot that one, etc. :D I've never loved a series like this before. Btw, too bad I don't know what Flash Forward is. :)

I think Lucifer!Sam was talking about Earth and mankind in general. But you know, it really felt like he was talking about Dean!!!

Flash Forward is a new series. 10 episodes up so far, and it has Dom Monoghan in it. The world stopped for 2 minutes, and everybody blacked-out and they had visons of themselves 6 months into the future. The story's mainly about them trying to find out who/what caused the worldwide phenomenon, and trying to stop it from happening again, because thousands of poeple died during the incident - planes crashed, people drowning, car accidents etc. It's a very exciting story!

Naw, nice picspam. ;)
I think I'm not being "converted" exactly but I'm kind of getting bits and pieces of Supernatural here and there, both by watching random episodes and the flist. Haha.

Wonderful picspam! <333

Once again, I'm convinced we share a brain. ;-)

FYI I thought the rose and the words are for Dean too! *nod head*

I noticed there are quite a few scenes from "The End". For me, it's the most memoriable (and best) episode.

From: [identity profile] layne67.livejournal.com
I thought of you when I wrote about the rose!!!

Yes, The End is the best for me followed by Changing Channels, Abandon All Hope, The Real Gh0stbusters, Free To Be You and Me, and Good God Y'all. What about you?

Date: 2010-01-21 11:04 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] xwacky.livejournal.com
Hehe, roses! ♥

Let's see, my favorites (S5 so far) are:

The End
Changing Channels
The Real Ghostbusters
Sympathy for the Devil, Good God Y'all (tie)
I Believe the Children Are Our Future
The Curious Case of Dean Winchester
Free To Be You and Me
Fallen Idols

Notice I left out "Abandon All Hopes". It's not that I don't like it, I just don't know where to put it. I cried and cried when watching it. It also has some really nifty scenes which I really like. But I cannot say it's among my top three favorites (at this time), yet I felt it oughtta be. Long story short, I'm very conflicted over AAH.

Yes, that was. Did you want me to list the top ones I like only?

Oops, I listed all the episodes from the one I liked most to the one I liked least. I haven't decided where I want "Abandon All Hopes" on the spectrum yet.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMORROW NIGHT! *flails*

Ok, heh, sorry for the 'shouting'. My excitement seems to be coming to a boiling point.

I loved this post. I found myself ready to cry more than once. A nice little recap while we wait for tomorrow's new episode. <3

I feel like shouting myself too I'm so excited!! Less than 24 hours now! Will you be downloading or watching it on TV?

And yes, I looked up the scenes and I cried and laughed and smiled all over again ...

Thank you so much, Caroline *hugs*

Of course I still love SPN, but I'm all fanfic'd out on it. That's my MO, moving on to a new pairing after 2 years or so. I've noticed, it's a pattern with me!

Awesome picspam! Just the perfect thing to get us all back in the mood for OMGNEWEPISODEYAY!!! :D

Also, I agree with most of your choices. Especially the scene when Sam and Dean agreed to go their separate ways. I was all, "They're breaking up?" (wibble) And hubby had to console me, going "There, there.. I'm sure they'll get back together in the next episode." :D

And you watch Flash Forward? Hubby used to download it, but I don't think he does anymore. We're getting hooked on this new show called Human Target. :)

From: [identity profile] layne67.livejournal.com
Your hubby is awesome! Mine just laughed at me :((

Yes, I do watch Flash Forward. It's the new Lost for me. And I suspect it's going to go the way Lost did for me, sizzling out after the second season when there were more questions than answers. No, I take that back. There was no answer at all for Lost.

But for the moment I'm really loving FF and I can't wait for the new episode!

I've been getting conflicting reviews on Human Target from my flist. Some of them love it, some of them said it's boring. I was planning to dl it, then I changed my mind. Quite possibly you've changed my mind again!

Btw, do try FF again. I think it's awesome!

Two very great moments in SPN!! It's funny in a way. There's a lot more episodes during this season that I don't quite like, compared to the previous seasons, but the best scenes ( and episode too ), for me, come from this season! It's like they have two sets of writers!

Season 3 had the most episodes I didn't care for, but it also had some of my favorites. This year, there's some eps I don't like a lot, but most of them have at least one scene I think is great. And oh yes, some of the best ones are from this season!
