9.05, or, "Man's Best Friend" the way it should have been the first time around!

Nov 06, 2013 21:52

I liked this episode. It wasn't quite as tight and every-line-better-than-the-last as some of SPN's finest comedic moments, but it was right up there ( Read more... )

Did anyone else have the thought that this is a deliberate attempt to redeem "Man's Best Friend"?

Then all is forgiven!

Personally, I did read the Yorkie as gay. I don't know anyone (southern or otherwise) who would talk like that who isn't gay. Or female.

And yes, they are bringing the pretty this season and I love it. The makeup artists did I great job making Jared look like hell (heh) last season but I need me some gorgeous Sam and I'm so glad he's back.

Yeeeahhh ... he did call the bad guy a "closet case," and then my friend I watched it with said she thought he was gay. (I also thought it might have been female!) My friend also pointed out the kinds of things he was saying as Sam rubbed his belly, and I chose to read that differently, because if he was enjoying it like THAT, that makes the poodle thing look like Disney! (Wait, Disney would do and has done stuff exactly like that countless times, so ... something actually innocent, then. ;-] ) I think you guys are probably right. (My sister had a gay dog, so I know it's possible!)

*melts* Sam DID look like hell last season, but ... somehow he looked absolutely just as hot to me as ever, even so. When it comes to Sam's looks, there can be no wrong as far as I'm concerned, apparently. (Actually, that SUPER-ripped scene with the pull-ups was so buffed and perfected it took it too far, to my taste; I'd rather he looked less inhumanly perfect. Still, it's not like I'm complaining!!)

I'm sorry, did you say something? I was distracted by your icon.

Yeah, I like my Sammy a little more subtle. The grey v-neck t-shirt is just about perfect.

OH! I am so glad to see someone mention THAT SHIRT. *droooool*...

LOL about "distracted by the icon". Yeeeeah, baby...

I'm with brightly-lit here-- sick!Sam was a big turn-on for me. I can't count the number of times in S8 when I clutched my bosom and cried "Oh, SAM!" *sigh* I must take him home and give him many cuddles and feed him soup. Then more cuddles. Um, and then...

And don't forget the PORN MUSIC in the pull-ups scene? What was with THAT? :-P I really, really don't ever mind looking at Sam with his shirt off, but that scene was kind of hard to watch.

Mmmm, one of my favorites is f-ed up, sleep-deprived Sam in white scrubs in S7, The Born Again Identity... pretty much every moment of that ep was PURE DROOL TIME.

OH DEAR GOD YES. Another ep i can watch until my eyes bleed. I love any form of damaged Sam, especially this one. But we haven't seen good old healthy Sam in a while and I missed him!

septembers_coda November 7 2013, 23:13:14 UTC

ME TOO. It hovers near #1 on my list of favorite eps of all time. Every moment it perfect. I loved it so much I wrote a Sassy fic about it. :-) In fact, it never occurred to me to write fanfic before that episode inspired me. Here it is if you're interested. http://septembers-coda.livejournal.com/727.html

(I always fail to create links the way I want them to look in comments; hopefully this at least works). :-)

I know what you mean, though; I am very glad to see healthy Sam again, for both emotional and visual reasons.
