You make some good observations. I especially like the John references. I heard them, saw them, but didn't really pick up on them. Which is stupid, 'cause you know John girl. In my defense, I haven't watches again yet and I was so exhausted yesterday after work that I almost didn't watch at all.

So when I get the chance to rewatch, I'm quite sure I will pick up a lot more when I'm coherent.

One thing that frustrates me is how odd it is that Dean and Sam are so blase about a psychic dude - that was a friend of John's and that they hung around with when they were young.

Does this sound like the John Winchester we know? He didn't even let his boys know about other hunters...didn't tell them about Ellen and the Roadhouse. Season one, hunting outside of their own family, seemed something the boys weren't really privy to. And yet John let them hang around a powerful psychic?

Dunno.

I need to go re-watch and enjoy.

Thanks for the thinky thoughts.
