I don't usually do this, but I keep forgetting my train of thought on this, so I'm going to write it down.
( It's not long-winded, I promise. It does however, contain some vague-ish spoilers for the episode. So click with caution. )

It feels like 300 years since we've had one. It's only that that one didn't look that interesting to me for some reason. Probably it doesn't mean anything. There have been uninteresting previews before that turned into great episodes... I think that I had just thought through the entire episode that they'd get back to Sam, and then I looked up and there were three minutes left. I hadn't heard that it was a Sam free episode. And so I was already disgruntled when the preview started, and it just didn't do anything to help. I need to watch it again. Like I said, I liked all the backstory that we got, it's just when I realized suddenly that that was ( ... )
