Here’s the thing: as basically 95% Dean-girl, I still think that it’s a mistake for the supernatural to focus so much on acting as Dean’s therapist, or in this case and somewhat more forgivably Dean’s guilt-generating device. And signs point to the Sam-neglect continuing. (How happy was I that Meg called Sam out on all those possessed bodies? Even happier than that!) Victor could have pointed out to Sam that he died to save Sam’s demonic ass; Sam canonically experiences guilt for those he fails to save as well as Dean (though perhaps not quite as prettily). Speaking of pretty, sleeping Dean in the car, y/y?

Sam also gets major respect from me for being able to be purely happy that Dean was apparently chosen by an angel for rescue. It would be understandable of him to resent getting the demonic end of the stick, or even at least temper his happiness with regret, but his pleasure at the idea of Dean’s heavenly connection was rock solid. If he weren’t consorting with Ruby, I’d easily call him the better man.


Chuck! I love you, Chuck! I’ve never had an honest OT3 before, but I do now.

I watched the first twenty minutes of the free pilot of Knight Rider available on iTunes. My standards are low, but this was below even them, much worse than the movie, which was already pretty bad. It was almost calculatedly incoherent, as if they had a dartboard which they used to determine whether “random action sequence,” “random romantic moment,” and “random angsty backstory moment” would go in any particular minute. The bad acting was almost unnoticeable amidst the larger disaster. How do you make Val Kilmer’s voice coming from KITT unsexy?
