So I missed the first five minutes due to Lee being ass about the tv controller and well, being wrapped up in Plants Vs. Zombies. (I'd recovered from my addiction once, why oh why did I go back. SO MUCH FUN IN CO-OP MODE THOUGH.)

There are a lot of negative opinions behind this cut.


I never thought I'd be the one saying I think I'm done with this show. :/

Biggest problems: Predictability and PACING. So obviously new writers, it was ridiculous. Especially when Veritas captured them, and instead of a commercial break, it just faded to black and then came back with them tied up. A better writer would've figured out a way to fit their act breaks to the commercials. Plus the whole episode was just rather boring and slow.

Bobby's little bit where he told the truth was pretty much the highlight for me. "Did I ever tell you my first girlfriend was a-" LOL. Though I did enjoy what Dean said to Veritas, heart-breaking and OH POOR D:EAN as it was, it does seem like what he would think, with the low self-esteem he has.

I'm pissed about the way they're ending Dean and Lisa, if this is the end, but at least satisfied that we got to see that final conversation, that Lisa called back, and they didn't just LEAVE it with her not answering his calls.

Brett figured Sam would be immune to Veritas, just like he'd been immune to pretty much everything else in life (Croatoan, Lilith) but I wanted to argue that he shouldn't be since he'd been brought back. But unlike Dean, we don't actually know whether or not he's scar-free or whatnot, so I suppose that makes sense.

I still don't fully believe Sam, and his "I need help." I don't think he does, because I don't think he cares. Because...

Like 3/4 of fandom predicted, shockingly (my sarcasm can you feel it), Sam doesn't have a soul. It's all about the soul. He's Spike, essentially.

Remember when this show used to shock and surprise us?

So please, people that liked this episode, help me see what you liked so I feel like watching next week.

spn: in retrospect
