Upon watching the download

Young Sam with yellow eyes was not unexpected but completely disturbing and creepy. (Also, that conversation, particularly Young!Sam's tone, reminded me of a similar scene in Northern Exposure wherein Joel was getting chewed out by his younger self for not manning up and taking responsibility. Only, you know, it wasn't nearly as evil.)

Mom Winchester looked . . . not quite evil, but somehow wrong. Nicely played, Show.

Jared was great.

Jensen was great.

This whole ending was very, very painful.

Sam choking Dean . . . I was hoping that he was only choking Dean out so he could make a clean escape. I don't think that's the case. I think he had every intention of killing Dean, but something in him stopped him before that happened. Of course, Dean passed out just before credits.

I can't think of a way they can fix this and remain true to the show, but otoh, they can't not fix it and remain true to Show. I just . . .

I hurt for Show . . .

Young Sam was creepy. Someone over on TWoP was saying it would be fun if he had a showdown with Young Lilith. The battle of the evil!kids.

I'm so impressed with how far Jared has come as an actor. This by far was his best performance. IMO. Kudos, dude.

Re: how far Jared has come.

Oh, total word on that. He's improved by leaps and bounds, and I'm sure at least part of that is due to working with someone as good as Jensen. I would love to ask them how they've influenced each other, both in personal habits and mannerisms, but more interestingly, in who they approach their craft.
