Yaaay! So glad you got to see it without having to wait *too* long. Hurrah! Also, your commentary was hilarious. (I'm sitting in a coffee shop, supposed to be doing work, with two friends who *are* doing work, and I'm giggling at your commentary and they're all, "What? What?!" but *between* them they have seen *one* episode ("Jus in Bello", in case you're curious) and so there was no way I could possibly explain. :)

My commentary on "Jump the Shark" is here. :) (Ooh, but I see you commented on a different entry of mine, so it looks like you're catching up on ye olde friends list.)

Anyway, very glad to see you out and about, and I can't wait 'til work settles down for you.

The end of this episode was so verra verra painful. Oh boys. :(

I'm glad I'm not the only one to catch that apparently Adam had to gestate for the length of an elephant to be born in 1992 after John slept with his mother in 1990. o_O But I hadn't caught the other dates-- well done.

Ohhh, the bad photoshop. Oh the horror. :D

I was wrong. It just sounded like 1992. Adam was born in 1990. I've gone back and altered my reaction post to fix this.

Ohhh, the bad photoshop. Oh the horror. :D

Honestly, I have seen worse. It's no where near perfect, but kind of adorable, really. :-)

I think I would have been disappointed if the PhotoShop had been good after "What is and What Should Never Be." :)

I got a large bunch of stuff done last night by staying until 11pm, and my laundry needs to dry before I head out today, or I will be heading out without pants and this would not be a good thing.

I loved the way they revealed that Adam was dead! I think it was my favorite part.

Hee! That was cool. The expression on his face was awesome.

I thought they said 92 also. Was making me nuts.
Kripke is being an evil bastard and screwing with us again. Well, that hasn't been a spoiler since the Pilot! :-D LOL!!! And yet we keep falling for it! I knew there was a brother coming, and was really good at not finding out anything else.

As usual, I laughed and nodded my head in agreement while reading your comments.

they went through the family photo collection and pulled every single photo of John they could find. John was in a statistically ludicrous percentage of the photos in that house even for the stated amount of time he was supposed to have visited. No, I don't think the ghouls did a bunch of rush photoshopping, but... Actually, that'd explain a lot.... :-D Wouldn't it ( ... )

The heat was probably turned off when the house was locked up after mom went missing, and that kept the smell from getting really bad.

Even unwarmed blood gets rank though. Might have just been festering in a pocket there and not moving out into the general room with no air moving.

I was annoyed by the outlet in the middle of the room and it being under the bed. Not really efficient.

It's apparently something that's an old building design.

Oh! thanks for the link to the HIlltop Cafe :) Wish I knew enough(anything) about running a cafe, and had the money.

There seemed to be a note that the sellers were offering advisory services. I kind of hope a bunch of fans could get together and buy it. :-)

I apparently completely managed to avoid spoilers so the whole thing was a shock to me

Holy crap, really? *is in awe*

I totally heard 1992 also - only thing I can think is bad enunciation on Jared's part running 1990 and to/too/two (can't remember exact phrasing) together....

It was "...he was born in 1990 to Kate Milligan...." There is a microscopic pause before the 'to' but it came across as emphasis to me. Arg.

Sam is really working on being a dick, isn't he? sheesh.

He's got some issues for sure.

and Dean. oh poor Dean....if ever someone needed some downtime and a cuddle it's him and I suspect he ain't'nt a-gonna git it this side of a salt'n'burn

OMG, no kidding. He needs soup. And tea. And a span of time where nothing and no one is trying to shred his poor beleaguered soul.

could he actually function that way? I mean he's basically lived his entire thinking life in that space and it might just be too weird to comprehend....

I don't know, I think we've had a few glimpses of it (Dream a Little Dream lawnmowing comes to mind) and it would be weird for him, but I'd like to see him get the chance to try. Although I doubt it would be on TV. :-)
