Supernatural 5x22
No spoilers. I'll have more thoughts tomorrow after I take time to ruminate.
However?
I seriously am finishing The Five Year Plan.
Post underneath if you've seen the episode, and wish to yammer with me.

I don't hate the episode. There wasn't really anything to hate, there just wasn't anything to love either.
I was annoyed that we really did just get "more of the same". Hey, let's break Bobby's back (again.) Hey, let's explode Cas into chunks (again.) Hey, let's make Adam into a massively annoying plot device without even attempting to make him a character while we're at it (again.)
Hey, let's have Dean provide the soundtrack in show (again...but admittedly, that was actually cool.)
Hey, let's use women/family as a fake cure-all/bandage that completely ignores (or appears to ignore) that as much as these men want to have "normal" lives, they are far too fucked up to ever accomplish it. (A-fucking-gain.)
If Kripke really was looking for a It's All Been Done before vibe--well, he got it. He managed to completely avoid bringing anything new to this episode.
So I didn't hate it. The guys all acted their hearts out and did the best they could with the ...you know, where's Suzi. THIS is what coming unceremoniously looks like.
The end.
