I m lost with this epi. I think I was expecting something else. Even the end didn't satisfy me. So he went murdered everybody in the house just like his nightmare and Sam couldn't stop him. He is becoming AGAIN the thing that he doesn't want to be.Now that I write it down it seems better thought but yeah what was the point of this WHOLE epi?
To see that Rowena can manipulate Crowley? To see the domestic life of Sam and Dean?To know that Claire's life sucks because of Cas or angels as a whole thing? They are five freaking years late to go into the topic btw. Did I miss out anything else that happened? Was there any monster involved? Was there a tinge of hint to where the freaking story is heading to this season? No don't tell me it is the MOC.there was hardly any MOC in the epi.
For me the epi would have suited better as a stand alone one.I would have enjoyed and appreciated better than. I hardly paid attention to anything cause I kept going like where is Dean and the mark. Also I felt the ending could have been more crisp and could have made more impact if they left us wondering whether Dean did that intentionally or he was forced by the Mark. The fact that they pretty much showed why Dean did it killed the curiosity.
You play a good cliffhanger at the end of any finale to bring back your audience. I think ending didn't quite reach there. They could have announced that SPN will come back in Feb and I would still not bother cause there is no curiosity in me right now. I already know MOC is affecting Dean. I already know whats the worst that can happen to Dean with the MOC. What is there left to build up the interest.
About Claire. I love what u guys wrote about her. But I didn't feel it u know.Thats mostly because I felt all of those things with Jimmy already back in season 4 when it happened. I remember him having so much faith in the higher power that he was so excited to serve the lord.He didn't think about his family and left. When he returned to his family and didn't wanted to pray, I cried for him. That was beautifully written.Now the story is too cold for those reactions to come back. I already imagine them to be casualty of war now. But of course Claire story is one of many trahedies that reflects what someone's action ends up doing to your life especially the ones who were innocent. One single decision destroyed a normal family
Every time Carver says that this season is personal, in my mind he is screaming at his writing staff like come up with the bloody storyline before they catch my bullshit. I think he should just hire the promo guy as his new writer. He will do the miracle.I have full faith in him.
P.S:That John moment was awesome. I love when the both remember him fondly. Just made me realised that they have lost so much.I wish John could appear once atleast before the show ends.
