When I saw the promo, I was so sure I would hate this episode, and instead I'm utterly in love. I'm in love with how pretty grown-up Dean is, I'm in love with how hot and angry Sam is when he smacks that bartender's head against the bar, I'm in love with how much Sam and Dean love each other... Gosh, I love this show so much!

How did I forget to mention this? Yes, all the love for angry protective Sam.

I actually have to stand on tiptoes to look through my peephole!

I loved this ep. Loved it. Like you, I don't go for the de-aged trope, but Dylan Everett was just so Dean that it was a joy to watch. There were lots of laugh out loud lines and again, I'm with you - Sam's face when he went to shut the door was just priceless.

*squishes the boys happily*

[caranfindel]

Yes, exactly! Sam's reactions were perfect.

Like you, I'm not into de-ageing at all, so the premise didn't exactly fill me with enthusiasm. But yeah, I really enjoyed this one. Dean (regular Dean!) is very pretty in it, and young Dean was surprisingly convincing, and Sam with the bartender, Jesus wept.

Upstairs, the witch is making J.P. soup, and lady, you don't just chop up an onion and throw it into boiling liquid. You saute it first. You call yourself a good cook?

I'm glad I wasn't the only person bothered by this, hah! That wasn't soup, that was a mess.

It's nice to be pleasantly surprised, isn't it?

This was the first episode I've watched live in awhile, and I'm happy to see it's not just me who enjoyed it. And I must thank you for pointing out Sam's red underwear, lol. :D

[caranfindel]

It's extremely relevant, that underwear.
