Supernatural is back children! How happy am I? :)
I have to say right off that I'm glad we don't have to have a season where half of it is taken up with Sam trying to figure out how to get Dean out of Hell and us watching Dean scream in agony in cut away shots every 10 minutes. T'would be a bit boring, you know?
Anyway, Dean having to claw his way out of his grave was pretty scary for me but that's because I'm all Victorian and have a total fear of being buried alive and I'm not so sure I'd be able to dig myself out. Now, all the dead trees lying about in a circle around said grave was a bit odd. Of course by the end of the episode we know why they are like that and it's cool.
Very convenient for Dean to find a closed and devoid of persons but fully stocked gas station.
Loved the reunion with Bobby. Love how of course he doesn't believe it's Dean and tries everything he can think to kill him. Of course got a bit teary when they finally hug and are all "I missed you".
Even better when Dean and Sam reunite. You could just feel how tight that hug was.
Now on to the interesting revelations:
Ruby has a new body. I was bit concerned when the brunette revealed herself again at the dinner because I was all "not another stupid girl stinking up the joint" but I'm ok with it being Ruby because she wasn't a terrible character. I just don't want her joining Sam and Dean and making it a group thing.
Sam has demon extracting skills. How's that for WTF? I know he's worried because of Dean's uncertainty about the psychic stuff but he shouldn't take too long to tell Dean about this. I only see arguments in the future.
Dean being pulled from Hell by and Angel! Never thought they would go that way and I like that they did. It works so well partly because Dean doesn't believe in that stuff and doesn't believe in anything good for himself. I'm a bit worried about what God has in store for him, if indeed this is a real angel and the real God. I hope it's not some big brother against brother thing because I got to think that an omniscient being would kind of be aware of the fact that those two ain't going to hurt each other.
So anyway, it's back with a flair and I missed my boys because I'm insanely emotionally attached to these guys but now am happy because all is well the universe. :)
Will try and discuss other new shows and such soon.
