People are hating on Sammy this ep, and in general I guess. So I felt the need to make my own point on this. But I don't want to reword it, so I'm just going to repeat a few comments and then go on with the rest of the ep.

standing_fic said: omg i knooow sam can be so whiny, but i always thought that he was whiny and dean was just RIGHT, you know? like, sam's whines were just whines for whining's sake. superficial conflict.

but here i really felt like, yeah sam. you need to speak up for yourself cause dean is being a little shitbag, thinking he has a right to own your ass, and keep you in a box, and that you have to jump when he says jump.

I replied: I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YOU SAID HERE. I don't know what it is, but I've been feeling so much for Sam lately, and the guy just looks like he NEEDS A FUCKING HUG ALREADY. And most everyone around me is like 'just grow up Sam GOSH.' Yeah, okay, he needs to get a backbone and just accept shit and stop whining BUT Dean isn't making it easy for him/them to get over the whole thing. And I didn't feel like he was whining so much this ep, as rather, disagreeing/putting his foot down/making a point/whatever. Which he needs to do as an adult. And I think Dean really needs someone to put him back in his place (omg ilu dean but you're a dick right now) because he isn't perfect. Neither of them are and they need to fucking deal already.

In general, I am feeling more and more for Sam, and I don't even know where it's coming from. Maybe I'm tired of Dean being such a prick? Maybe I'm tired of knowing that they're not doing their thing because Dean can't trust him and Sam doesn't feel secure enough to stand up because he's already on shaky ground? I don't know. It feels weird, I'll tell ya that, because I disliked him for so much last year. Hey Sam? Chuck was right, you were totally unsympathetic. Okay, yes, you did it because Dean was being a dick then, too, but you know what? A) DEAN IS A DICK. That's not going to change. Yes, we get little morsels of humanity and love and brotherly things, but they are few and far between, which is why we all get SO excited for them. And B) DEMON BLOOD WAS NOT A GOOD IDEA.

ANYWAY. I should talk about the ep. In general, I agree with some of the comments I've seen that it wasn't great. I'm more disappointed in it not being good because just two hours before I watched it, I argued with a RL buddy, who watches, that this season has been pretty kick ass so far (he disagrees). And then this. Whatever. I like that it was a drop-in kind of ep, with less apocalypsy stuff and just going back to the MotW feel. OMG House of Wax reference, I LOLed, especially Jared's face. Paris was actually ... better than I thought she would be? She still sucks major ass, but it wasn't as big of a train wreck as I was expecting. So, whatever. I hated her little speech. It felt way too forced and preachy and awkward - the words not just her delivery. I dunno.

DOUBLE SECRET PROBATION! OMG ILU SPN. Animal House FTW! Which makes me remember The Godfather reference from last week!

Dean under Little Bastard? OMG I was laughing at his horror of the thing killing him, and how sweet he was trying to be to it. JENSEN HOW ARE YOU SO AWESOME? I don't even know. Also? THANK YOU for stopping the growl and talking fucking normal. Now just FUCKING HUG YOUR BROTHER ALREADY and we can stop fighting (you knew that was coming, didn't you?)!

OMG SAM GOT THE KEYS. Seconds after the ep ended, I was dreaming up codas (my God, is this what I'm going to do every Friday? Write fucking codas? Jesus, like I don't have enough else going on) but it's super short, so I'll probably do it anyway.

OH AND ALSO? Promos for next ... few weeks? DAVID CARUSO MOCKERY? I'M THERE KRIP, I'M SO THERE. I don't know what happened in half of it but did I spot a Japanese game show, cheesy sitcom, and Dean killing a cop? I'm sure that last one is really something else, but still. It was just WAY TOO MUCH for my brain and I'm all disjointed. Still.
