The last fifteen minutes of "Do You Believe in Miracles?" went miraculously far in reviving the vulnerability, the ferocity, the excitement and the emotional resonance that I love in Supernatural.
This season has had some great episodes and generally complex, nuanced and committed performances. As well as haunting visuals. Tremendous guest stars. But it has also felt disjointed and dissonant, at odds with its own premise and mythology. It felt tired.
But now it feels energized. Well, heartbreaky and energized. I think that can be a thing.
