Oct. 25th, 2008 06:53 amWell, I suppose it's time for me to get my thoughts in order. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kalquessa and izhilzha pretty much hit all the high points, but I'll do my best. This one will be a little more difficult, because I have mixed feelings about this ep. Given last week's promo, I thought it would be angsty, but I've thought for a week that Dean's scream that they included at the end of the promo was . . . . kinda silly. Turns out, I was right. (On the upside, I got a kick out of Geo getting a kick out of this stuff.)
( Fear and angst: Now with 75% more humor . . . )
This ep has grown on me with repeated viewing (and widescreen, hi-res picture). It felt kind of uneven, what with the combination of humor and what could have been really good, top-notch, character-revealing angst. I was really hoping to get more specifics regarding Dean's nightmares and his time in Hell. Alas, no.
At one point, I thought, "Oh, okay, the first half is going to be humor, then we'll get to the good stuff in the second half." That didn't really happen to my satisfaction, either. But after pulling it apart with Izhi and Cheese Elf, I think I'm okay with it. And as always, there's something to recommend it. In this case, it's Jensen's comedic talents, and wouldn't I love to see that boy in an out-and-out comedy. (Alas, I've never had the opportunity to see Ten Inch Hero.)
Wow. I really need to cut the length on these things, don't I.
