I cannot wait for our rewatch – to be back in the early seasons.
They will be overjoyed for sure. I was there for everything but the I love you.
I knew you would not be happy that there may only be 3 people left on earth and Jack is one of them. I really didn’t like everything they did with Jack here. The big plan fizzled – he detonates but is preserved by the Empty just…NO!
It’s cheap to try to use AU characters to get to us. Now it sounds like the original plan was to have them somehow save everyone or join them in the other side – but covid nixed that so I have more hope for a pared-down version.
And we saw the first Walker ad! Sam was narrating it!!!
Kate – I’ve never seen an Avengers movie. What’d they steal?
Cas’ speech to Dean – beautiful. This episode was originally called The Truth and they should have left it that way. Cas told Dean exactly what we’ve always known about him – about who he really is – about why we all love him. And Cas’ perfect moment of happiness was telling Dean that truth? I wish Dean had had more reaction. Such an abrupt end to our Cas though!!!
But the rest of this episode – What. The. Hell?!?!?! Slow. Weird. Disjointed. Not good.
We need to get you guys your avatars back.
I now have the most hope for the very last episode that sounds like it will be mostly unrelated to the current story line.
I liked last week.
Well, they WERE still shooting ep 19 with Adam/Michael in the bunker…so I doubt Jack’s mushroom cloud will take it out. I don’t think Jack will die. I think Cas will sacrifice himself to save Jack.
I really do not get and never have gotten the point of The Empty. Nope.
PigNaPoke – “What a mess” – AMEN !!!!!
You say wow, I say WTF and it could have been SO much better.
Kate, I could see you cheering Dean’s “he’s not family” speech from here.
So lame that all powered-up Jack got to do was hold his stomach and cower in the hall for the back half of the episode.
I was NOT feeling this one (except for Sam and Dean’s heartfelt exchange in the hallway – they always make me feel it. Always. So good.) and I feel like I should be feeling everything at some core level – after all these years and with all of existence on the line, but it feels…too small!
Chuck CAN do calm-scary, but angry is not working for him! It makes him LESS scary!
So I guess they are being used by every entity (or every entity is attempting to use them) from God to Billie to The Empty to Adam and…Serafina (????). Everyone wants to use them to get their own revenge or advance their own eternal career.
God KILLED Jack once so how is it this huge climax to have God try to kill him again? I did not get the ending. God thinks they’ll kill each other after Jack dies? What?
Everyone here is a very good actor. So the reason it fell flat must be the script or directing or…why didn’t I feel more?
Loved the exchanges between Sam and Cas. Loved Sam throughout. Smart and brave. Dean was written as too angry and single-minded. He’s so much more than that by now. And Dean pulling a gun on Sam just felt competely and totally wrong. Fighting? Even physically fighting? Okay. Dean would never point a loaded gun at Sam (unless Dean was not himself). Never. If they were trying for drama, it didn’t work because it was so out of character.
I was happily surprised by this one. I liked that we got a scary monster! I felt this young Dean may have watched Supernatural Christmas Dean because there were a few similarities in mannerisms. I DO think Dean at that age could have lashed out at Sam’s wish to go to college one day because HE didn’t want to lose Sam – likes seeing them as a team – the only one who truly understood their lives. I think he was mean to Sam out of fear of losing him (calling him dumb).
I was glad at the end that Sam finally just got completely fed-up-mad about Dean keeping secrets. That was the appropriate response. I do not like that tired old theme (brothers at odds) somehow being thought of as necessary AGAIN by the writers – really? Do they have to go into the final battle at odds?
Will Dean TRUST SAM as a result of this? Will he go with whatever idea Sam will come up with (I believe) to attempt to save Jack?
I agree, Kate, the idea that Jack is sacrificing himself to try to get Dean to forgive him for Mary does not make sense with the timeline.
Anyone else wonder why the bong-smoking desk clerk was added? I guess it was supposed to be funny?
Overall, I really liked this one. Only 4 left now. I think it’s all in to the final showdown now. And we get what looks like a humorous (?) Adam (Adam and Eve Adam) next week.
