SPN - 6.18

What fun! Hee!

Dean finds the clue!

Dean does like the early Trek movies, doesn't he. Bwah!

Canon confirmation that Dean likes Eastwood movies. (And John Wayne movies. And old movies in general, especially Westerns.)

Going native: Oh, Dean.

Elkins!

Cas, what are you doing? *flail*

Yay the phoenix isn't completely evil!

Deadwood. Bwah!

Pony Express! *flaility flail*

The only part that bothered me is making Dean the comic relief when it's not particularly fitting. Possibly because it seems a scooch OOC after this season. It just didn't sit totally right with me. It just seems like a bit of character regression. Still, he was the competent leader of this expedition in spite of that, so yay.

And I'll let the peeve slide because:

Best part of the ep: hopeful ending! We havin't had one of those that made me happy like this in . . . forever. "We take the fight to her." Reminiscent of John at the end of "Dead Man's Blood."

Yay, Show!

Hey, those writers like that kind of humor so they always write it for Dean especially so i handwaved it and enjoyed the rest of the ep.

I am loving that there is so much love for this ep. I was a little afraid that it wouldn't justice to all the hype for this ep but it totally did, yay!! :-)

I LOVED the episode! Deb and I watched it again last night in the hotel, and we guffawed our way through it all over again. SO much fun - and I didn't see it as forcing Dean into being comic relief. Rather, I took it as little boy/uberfangeek Dean being thrust into his ultimate fantasy situation, and letting his silly side bloom. It didn't strike a wrong note for me at all. The only bit I didn't care for was Rachel, but they killed her, so I'm content.
