roxy: (spn showtime!)
[personal profile] roxy


Everything about tonight's ep was a surprise to me--including the fact show was on tonight, oy! So, happy surprise. :) Also, Dylan, surprise! God, that kid is amazing! He had about a second of screen time, and he was young Dean all over the screen.

Young Sammy was adequate. I'd hoped to really love him because physically, I thought he was a pretty good match—around the eyes—but no one can beat young Colin. He had a Sammy-ness that this boy couldn't quite project. But, maybe that was because he wasn't playing against Dean. He was sweet, though, and that whole scene with Sully broke my heart so hard. Man, that hurt. Sam, you were always kind of a dick, hanh? How you manage to also be the world's biggest woobie is a mystery. An asshole, and yet, possessing such a big heart. *shakes head* Ah, what the hell—those *are* my fav kinds of peoples.

Sully was just—he made me go AWWWWWWWWW about a dozen times. Man, between Dean and Sully, no wonder Sam was such a hero. I'm glad Dean acknowledged Sully's work, that was nice. Also, DAMN! They referenced Sammy falling off the shed! Good work! Omg, I'm loving the fact they're rediscovering continuity!

I took Sully's rainbow suspenders to be a shout-out to Mork—you know those boys watched a lot of 80s TV in reruns. In the 90s, that's what most daytime programming was, we watched a shit ton of it when BG was a wee babe. 'Course, at first I was all, "Oh damn, Sam's imaginary friend is flying the flag!" Haha. (yeah, like we won't be using that in future fics—"Sully's suspenders a reflection of Sam's budding sexuality.". ;D )

I loved Sam in this ep—he made me snivel more than once. I loved Dean in this ep—what a huge dork! It was fun to have a little Dork!Dean again. And omgaaaaawd, Unicorn Man! LOL!!! I know I'm not the only one who saw this:



Anyhoo, I will watch again and hopefully, actually post my thoughts after. I'm very much enjoying the feeling that the Winchesters truly working together, with those mile-high walls significantly lower. I'm also enjoying whole shows that revolve around just the Winchesters.

Final word--Sam, stop making me cry!!!

Right? He was so sweet, and so brave, and totally supported Sam and I'm glad to know that the support Sam thought was a product of his imagination was real.

Wheeeeeeeee!
Oh, man. This ep. So many awesome moments, and i love that they're continuing the 'some monsters aren't bad' theme, and yes, Sam's broken arm and just, basically, populating the world with even more crazy things.

And Deeeeeeeeeeean and Saaaaaaaaaam rockin' the Bert'n'Ernie vibe, and the sparkly!blood on Mom's face, and, just....
*flails*

Sam confessing how scared he is had me tearing up, oh *Sam*....
*sniffles*

And Dean! In his 'dead guy' robe and scuffs, OMFG, and how he got all righteous and *tied the belt tight*, BWAAAAHAHAhahahahaha and Sam all bed-head and zoned out!!

Fucking epic. :)

The way Sam turned back into a ten year old when Dean tightened the belt robe at him--lol!!

This is what Show does best--make you laugh and then, make you cry. :)

YES YES, OMG! *rewatches obsessively*

OH AND. Re: my icon - i love that show is having continuity. Sam *does* sleep in this outfit (like Dean sleeps in a tee and boxers and uses the dead-guy robe), so YAY. :)

Haven't seen it yet.

Damn weather was too clear tonight. To get the Buffalo station across the lake it needs to be slightly cloudy but not rainy.

But I'm wicked stocked to hear that you like it!! Can't wait til a year from now, when I can buy the DVDs :)

I loved everything about it!

Bed head Sam and robe and slippers Dean.

Sully telling Sam that he's a hero and what being brave is.

Dean thanking Sully for being there for Sam.

Tito, bring me a tissue, there's something in my eye.

COMPLETELY agree about young sam - hard to fill colin ford's shoes. The eyes were good, but there wasn;t that sense of sam struggling for his own life. Of course, this kid is a lot younger, like right after finding about about monsters at all, so maybe he just wasn't at the point of resisting yet, like when he's older a la the high school ep.

Dylan was terrific.

YES ALL I COULD THINK OF WAS THAT MANIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it was there, just in wee baby form. He was still young enough that he was grasping for approval from John, (and maybe Dean) and this was the only way. I think the kid couldn't get that to come though but it would have been one hell of a challenge for any young actor, I'm thinking.

MANIP!! HAHAHAHAHAAA!!

11.08 is definitely going on my list of "Best SPN Episodes Ever." SO very much to love -- I've already re-watched once. S11 is shaping up beautifully. ♥

"Sully's suspenders a reflection of Sam's budding sexuality.". ;D

LOL, oh, you!! XDDD

I'm also enjoying whole shows that revolve around just the Winchesters.

This times a bazillion! It's like a breath of fresh air, isn't it?
