Lol so not a good episode! I'm starting to believe I'm the only one who did not like this shit XD Not the end of the world, but geez creepy crappy shit hah. I'd rather see an actual funny filler episode then this or actually get back the meaty good parts from the start of the season XD

Looking at the rest of the comments after yours, I'd say it's the other way around. I'M the only one who LIKED it. LOL
I agree actually, that the episode wasn't particularly funny. I'm pretty sure I didn't laugh at anything. But somehow I took it all in stride and enjoyed it. Take another look at my post, I've added some stuff that's in response to all of the comments I've received so far.

There were some parts I liked (thought the demon in the purple shirt/tie was cute), enjoyed Crowley talking about Hell's integrity compared to Wall Street, glad the boys are patching things up. The other parts made me feel as though the ep was bad touching me.

I wondered how uncomfortable this would have made me feel if a guy whammied a girl into loving/marrying him. Glad Becky didn't consummate the marriage as it'd be the equivalent of rape, even if Sam felt like he loves her then. I know I'm taking this ep too seriously but it wasn't the light, cute funny ep I think the writers meant for it to be.

Some how I just didn't tap into the creepy real-life implications. I don't know why.

Yeahhhhh you're the first positive review I've seen. Well. I'm glad someone enjoyed that mess, I suppose.

This is such a new position for me to be in. I'm nonplussed to say the least. Take another look at my post, I've added some stuff that's in response to all of the comments I've received so far.

Wow, not gonna lie, I'm surprised you liked this episode. I've been hearing a ton of not good things about it. I think the majority of fandom (except you, I guess) hates Becky, LOL. I think this one I'm going to skip, but I'm glad you liked it. I hope next episode will be better. :)

I'm not one to say skip an episode (because you should see it yourself to judge for yourself), but wow. You're not missing out on anything this time. Geez lol.

I was surprised you liked it too dawn XD No dissing or anything. Just surprised XD

And I'm just surprised that everybody's so surprised. I mean, I didn't LOVE the episode or anything, but I did enjoy it. Anyways, we could run ourselves in circles on who is more surprised. ; )
I don't mind liking this one on my own. You guys are all really nice and respectful about how you feel differently from me. &hearts

I'm surprised to apparently be in a minority for liking this one. Yeah, Idk, I don't hate Becky. Becky is Becky to me, and I've never taken it further. I'll agree she was over-the-top this time. I did like it. I guess I somehow left my other lenses off while watching this time. *shrug* Anyways, take another look at my post, I've added some stuff that's in response to all of the comments I've received so far.

Interesting, I think your insta reactiosn were quite similar to mine, apart from I laughed out loud at the exploding wedding cake, at Sam tied up because it was so Misery-but-not, and the dialogue of grunting once she'd stuffed the tea towel in his mouth was FUNNY. I largely ignored the whole "how the hell did tiny Becky lug Sam's giant ass from her flat to her car to her cabin in the woods let alone get him undressed" (that seemed like a minor quibble in the face of the rest!).

So not their greatest effort but an ok filler and bit of fun. I wonder whether people delve too deep sometimes with the whole rape issue (there was no rape and it was made clear that what Becky did was as wrong as a roofie whether she'd had her wicked way with Sam or not). And the black guy getting his comeupance? Well surely we don't actually know what punishment Crowley had in mind, and that actor made an excellent (and handsome) demon so I can't see why his being black has any significance at all.

Ha! Yeah I totally ignored the logic of Becky getting Sam to the bed too. And I agree too - that they made it pretty clear that what Becky did was wrong and that Becky knew it too.

As for Crowley and Guy. I think the negative reactions to that have been the most surprising to me! And like you said, I didn't get any feeling that Guy's skin-color played any consequence/role in that scene at all.
