Supernatural 4x20 commentary-type stuff

Apr 30, 2009 22:12

I need to preface this whole thing by stating that, in order to watch this episode as soon as possible, I drove back to the house. Yes, really. IN FACT, this is the first time I've seen Supernatural on a genuine TV! The experience is really, really different, omfg. I want to slaughter WalMart for interrupting and I was curled up in a little ball gaping at the commercials going "Oh HELL no, you did NOT just put in A COMMERCIAL BREAK." Funny enough I also watched the last 10 minutes of Smallville and kind of laughed a whole lot. Oh, Smallville. Remember when you used to be cool?

Ahem. Anyway. On to the episode-talk!


FIRST, Jimmy Novak. Jimmy is an awesome adorable cuddlybear daddypapa who needs lots of loving and can stick his hand in boiling water without getting hurt. I get far too much of a kick out of the AM Radio Commercial Time Salesman thing than I should, probably. Dommy knows, but that's spoilers. Anyway, Jimmy not saying grace was just...gaaah. He needs a hug. And I'm probably the only one that GASPED IN SHOCK when he started beating up his posessed buddy, because for some stupid reason I'd thought Jimmy would be running away instead of bashing the guy's head in. I also squealed like the twelve-year-old-girl this show turns me into when he started with the salt line. D'AWWW, YOU LEARNED SOMETHING USEFUL FROM OUR BOYS! ♥ ♥ ♥

Jimmy broke my heart, and littlegirl!Castiel telling him about how if he thought one year would be bad he should imagine a hundred or a thousand and all Jimmy did was PLEAD FOR HIS DAUGHTER and aaaugh. Show, I don't know if I love you or hate you for the things you do to me.

It was Disturbingly Appropriate that Jimmy's daughter (Claire?) was RIGHT NEXT TO DEAN for almost the WHOLE FIGHT. He is ALWAYS THERE, little girl or not. He can say he doesn't serve Dean, and he doesn't, but he is his friend, no matter what Heaven decided to do to him.

Which, by the way, I'm guessing was something like Reverse Sensory Depravation. Stick him in a vat full of emotions and murder and vengeance and make sure he knows all the bad things about humans and how Heaven's trying to protect them from themselves and all that. I really want to believe he was lying, but I really wanted to believe Cas was a lying demon in 4x01 too, so! In Kripke I Sort Of Trust.

And oh, Sam. I could see it coming a mile away and that was just painful to see. I may have shouted "OH DON'T BE AN IDIOT" at the screen. Might not have. And I don't know if I'm gullible or not for believing Bobby about the apocalypse (although I did Get It when they were all 'thaaat's right, into the room, sammy~'). I'll chalk it up to how Bobby Is Always Right and that really, the apocalypse is gonna start up any time soon. I feel like I'm never going to get my sam'n'dean back, though, which makes me really really sad. D:

Dean's dream was a quiet morning, sitting on a tiny dock at a pond that probably didn't have any fish in it, just watching the water. I really do believe he's just plain tired at this point. Tired and dedicated and run ragged. He really does need to just go fishing.

And I am probably the only one who is thinking Jimmy/Angel!Cas is almost plausible. The shouting at him and begging and. Yeah. I don't know, maybe the poor angel's just become the show bicycle to me.
