Ohgod. This has been the most hand-wringing, nail-chewing, head-banging experience of my whole fangirl LIFE. Jeez, I really don't know if I can survive this again next year, but if SPN fans are approximately 3 million views, we've got to view strong and stay strong. I am sick that the Sunday spot went to a rerun of ATM; do we really need a second weekly helping of those tall, skinny wimps whining about BEING tall and skinny?? Please. I have no interest in any of the new shows, and I don't think one of them will be the water cooler hit that CW seems to be hoping for.
Okay, rant over. AHBL2. Stunning. Incredible. And with Kim at the helm, Dean and Sam's bond blazes hot as sunlight. I wondered if Dean's amulet would come into play to save Sammy, but I guess that may be a plot twist for season 3. His bargaining with that gorgeous femdemon sizzled, right down to Dean's defiant kiss and Sam's awakening(have to give Bobby bonus points for not screaming when he saw Sam on his doorstep).
Bobby's scene with Dean was magnificent, and absolutely true--Dean has been carrying a crapload of guilt since "Faith" and "IMTOD", and I really hope Season 3 gets into why Dean feels so unworthy of getting love, while it's obvious that he has so much love to give to others.
No, I don't think Sammy is okay. He has ingested demon blood,been possessed, killed a hunter, died and been resurrected. He has to have changed, and he's going to have to fight the two warring sides of himself as well as the demon army, and who knows what sort of powers they may have to lure him to their side?
I'm disappointed at how JDM's return was handled, too. Of course, it was only right that the Winchesters were united to take out the YED; definitely it was right for Dean to shoot the(kinda hot)YED. No dialog comes to mind, but there should have been something. At least Dean got to say 'this was for our mom'. Right on.
And I'm glad Sam knows about the bargain, but not everything, or that Dean doesn't know about the blood. Will we find out why Mary said "I'm sorry/It's you"? And I wonder if there's any bullets floating around anywhere to load that Colt...
