Thanks for taking the time for your review! I am always in awe while reading of your ability to get right to the heart of what is going on below the surface of the episode. I rarely (almost never!) watch episodes and come away with so much insight into what just happened as you do - at least not so that I could convey with words what I liked/did not like about it. But I very much appreciate your ability to go back to past seasons and pull references from earlier relevant scenes to bolster your point of view of what is happening now.
And I am always thinking as I read - "I sure wish Mary was consulted by the writers at least some of the time!" You are such a valuable resource in my opinion!
Thanks!

Thank YOU for coming by and saying such kind words!

I got the chance to meet Robbie Thompson and Adam Glass at VanCon in August, and was delighted to chat with them and other fans for a couple of hours in the hotel lobby. Now THAT was unexpected! Their love and care for the show were heart-warming to behold. We've got some superstars on our show's creative team!

*So* very interesting, thought provoking, and fun! I love how many little details and past themes/words/actions you bring into the analyzation of new episodes.

I wish i could respond in kind! I, too, *want* to trust Ezekiel, but i just don't know if we can. I hope so!

And I felt so bad for Castiel, because for a few moments there, with Hael, he was full of such joy and purpose, but then....
*pets him*

This is going to be an excellent season.

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed, and stopped to tell me so!

I think this season is going to ROCK - the setup has so much depth to plumb ...!
