SPN - 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[feliciakw]

Well, that was silly. It got a couple of LOLs out of Geo. I thought it was believable silly, but did cross the line once or twice, unfortunately.

At the beginning, I was looking forward to an urban legend-type MotW. A snakeman? Really? That's . . . disturbing. Sadly, they did not carry through with my premise.

Also, very much ick on snatching the cats from the pound.

I guess Dean has gotten over his fear of dogs. Though I can certainly see that if Dean were going to have a dog, it would be a German shepherd. (We always had a German shepherd when I was growing up, and if we were to get a dog now, that's what I'd want.)

Overall, not as bad as I'd feared, but it did stray too far more than I'd have liked.

As always, Jensen looked good, and I think he might have enjoyed working with the material. I loved the way the didn't go OTT with the dog stuff. He didn't "turn into a dog." More like "here's how a human would display these canine characteristics." The fetching (without even realizing it), I think, was what Geo and I found the most amusing. :)

Oh, which is another topic. Jared is fantastic with comedy, but this kind of comedy? I really think Jensen does better, or more convincingly. I can't really explain it, but I can't see Jared playing it with the same non-chalance that Jensen did. If that makes sense.
