This is gonna be incoherent. Incoherent SPOILERY sentences and one liners if you haven't watched. You've been warned.
OH MY GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S HERE!!!!!
SUPERNATURAL SEASON 5!!!!!!!!
Season recap, not as kickass as last season's opener, but KICKASS NONETHELESS. Then again, nothing is nearly as kickass as AC/DC's You Shook Me All Night Long. But Thunderstruck came close.
Here we go..... eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.... #LUCIFERISHERE!!!
Sam & Dean on a plane? WTF? Are we watching LOST here? Hell, we already have Jacob!
LOVE the new title sequence. Blood. It's seriously beautiful. My favorite so far was Season 2's fiery title. Now it's Season 5's.
Dean & Sam riding in some rented sedan is just PLAIN WEIRD. Where's Metallicar? Oh right, they left it at Lucifer's rising ground didn't they?
OK, skipping the whole Dean & Sam rendezvous with asshat angels at Chuck's coz I've squeed on that months before today from the Comic-con previews. But still:
"I learned that from my friend Cas, you sonofabitch!" is made of all kinds of awesomeness!
The whole Dean & Sam awkward dynamics is killing me. You think it was PAINFUL to watch last season's? It's even more excruciating now.
Another poke of fun at the Supernatural fandom. Kripke & Co are SO AWESOME. A Sam Girl writing her slash fanfic: PRICELESS. And I love how she keeps MOLESTING Sam's boob xD
I know Sam probably deserved every single word Bobby said there, but I can't help feeling sorry for him. I've always been a Dean Girl, yes, but I guess I love Supernatural because it's about THE WINCHESTERS. Yes, I absolutely adore Cas and the thought of Dean teaming up with Cas is just so damn cool, but there's a part in me that STILL CAN'T LET GO of those good ol' Supernatural days of Dean & Sam (& John) saving people, hunting things. You know what I mean?
Just wanted to say Jared did a great job this episode playing that sad puppy faced Sammy. I can totally see that little brother Sam he used to be back in the early days of Supernatural. I missed that Sam. I really do :(
BOBBY GOT POSSESSED? I did not see it coming! Maybe I knew it in the back of my head but that's just the way I am. I sometimes FORGOT what I already knew, so yes, I was still surprised, which is a VERY good thing.
I was skeptic about ex-Mrs.Macaulay Culkin, Rachel Miner, but she is actually good as a demonette. You know what, after that an entire season of horrible horrendous demonette acting that was Genevieve Cortese, I think anyone who's even only slightly better than her would make demonette acting really good. I like this new Meg.
And why do demonettes just LOVE to suck face with Dean? Stupid question huh? I'm no demonette and I want to suck face with Dean too.
The whole Jacob thing is actually PRETTY CREEPY. The blood in his bedsheets, the sound of baby crying, the blood spilling out of the crib... CREEPY. Oh, and when I say Jacob I mean that dude who is Lucifer's vessel. I only know him as Jacob from LOST so I'm just gonna refer to him as either: a. Jacob, or b. Lucifer.
The castle on a hill of 42 dogs. The biggest motherfuckin' revelation of all time. DEAN IS THE SWORD OF MICHAEL.
I repeat:
DEAN WINCHESTER IS THE SWORD OF MICHAEL.
Wow. That is... HUUUUUUUUUUGE. Seriously huge!!! Oh Dean, I've always known you ARE special, but I'm sorry you had to be special in ways that burdens you so much! I feel so bad for Dean! Not only is he the first seal that jumpstarted the apocalypse, now he's THE SWORD OF MICHAEL, as in the chosen vessel for Michael the Archangel to smite Lucifer back to hell???
ANGEL CONDOM. Nicely put. It's such an oxymoron, those two words put together, but so true. And it shall be written, "ANGEL CONDOM" is currently the best Dean Winchester snark ever.
Zachariah is such a prick! I'm still not getting this whole angel-God premises though. Is Zachariah playing boss (without the proper authority) in God's absence? Aren't the archangels higher in position than him? Are the archangels involved in this whole fishy scheme or is Zachariah just shooting crap out of his asshat mouth?
And did you love the look on Dean's face when Cas showed up OR WHAT??!! And then CAS TRAMP-STAMPED THE WINCHESTERS. On the inside, on their ribs. How hilarious is that? It's kinda like putting a "PROPERTY OF CASTIEL" stamp on them, or in this case, I'd say the stamp probably says "Property of God"?
Speaking of which, is that what brought Castiel back? He's being so cryptic about that, but that had to be about God, right? Who brought Cas back, who beamed the boys up on that plane? Something that scared the bejeezus out of Zachariah. It had to be the Big Man Up There Himself.
Not enough Castiel. Not enough Misha Collins. I've anticipated this. I knew we were only gonna get like... minutes of Castiel. Oh well :(
Sympathy for the Devil: I thought JACOB was gonna be the sympathetic devil but before that his dead wife is already playing it SO WELL. Listening to her speak of Lucifer's "crimes" made me feel a lot of blasphemous feelings about this whole religion thing! Oh noes! So the vessel has given Lucifer consent to be ridden through the apocalypse. And so Lucifer walks the earth now. #LuciferIsHere and we'll meet him for real next episode.
That last scene, where Dean pour all his crapped out feelings to Sam made me sad. Like really sad. Somewhere deep down I still kinda do care about Dean & Sam. "I just don't think that we can be what we were." That is a big stab straight to Sam's heart, and mine! Is this the end of Dean & Sam as we know it? I'm just curious as to how Kripke & Co will play this out throughout the whole season.
Great kickass start to the funpocalypse!
