It was wonderful when you could so clearly see that Sarah was NOT Alison that you were wondering why everyone else in the room was so blind they couldn't see it was not the same person. I mean, they look NOTHING alike…except for actually having the same physical body.

That was such a great burn. Preparing for her career of cutting people in the shower by cutting them viciously in their feelings.

Yeah, I understand the GOTness of killing off a major character, but I am really, really going to miss Dr. Leekie.

I always thought Lindsey was an underrated character.

I'm reserving judgement until I see Art/Alison. Alison might be on the market again soon and you know despite all her crazy illegal guns/pills proclivities and being a tightly wound soccer mom, she might win him over with her ability to pepper spray.

The sex tape was fake, if there is a connection it would be that introverted shy Meg was so freaked out at the thought so many people wanted to masturbate to her that she felt even more uncomfortable and overwhelmed dealing with the public.

This season did many, many terrible things to angels, but imo one of the worst things it did was to make them mundane, and take away any awe or majesty they had left. Then it also went on to make them weak, stupid, bland, inconsistent and boring. They seemed written by people who fundamentally didn't understand the…

I think they should give up and do a reruns of something cheap opposing AoS and try to position their best shows where they can get the highest ratings.

I love watching him (Sheppard) in general, and I loved watching him as Crowley this season. Jensen is always great of course. I did feel Cas got a bit short changed on the back end of this season, though, in terms of being given writing that show cased Misha's acting ability.

Yeah, and I think it's because of the Hitchcock thing, something you allude to and make the viewer imagine is more scary than outright showing it happen. Seeing it you can disengage a little bit more I think, oddly. Imagining it puts you more in the moment emotionally. You supply the feeling of fear the person would…

But that still didn't make me scared of him, it just made me think it sucked even more for Dean to lose to him (because I knew of course, Dean was either not dead or wouldn't stay dead). It wasn't as scary to me as the hellhounds, for example.

I'm okay with a Dean/Crowley bromance if they give Sam a buddy too.

It's hilarious. Sam is super sized but anyone can beat him up apparently, even people who come up to his shoulders. It always looks so visually wrong to me.

I think the show has given up on trying to make Sam a consistent character and have him do things based solely on plot convenience now.

Well, I think in this case he's limited by trying to play Gadreel as Jared played him (Jared played him first, then Tamoah played Gadreel based on Jared's choices) so the speech cadence, stoic looking face, etc were already locked in choices.

But everything is written as that stuff is happening to Sam, and then the focus is on Dean, how Dean reacts and what Dean does. Dean is clearly the protagonist while Sam is more in the Lois Lane role. Stuff happens to him, he needs to be saved, and he doesn't get nearly as much character development or agency.

Noooooo I like Crowley! But I do hope Crowley doesn't really want to rule and is trying to leave Hell to Dean.

AGREE! Some of my favorite moments from him have been comedic. Watching him 'playing' Sam in The French Mistake, losing his shoe in the one with the cursed rabbit's foot, he has great physical comedy skills.

Yeah, definitely time to stop taking the crazy pills.

I feel like they need somebody with a white board to plan out a season arc theme before they start writing individual episodes or something. I don't know what was happening before that isn't happening now but it's obviously something and the result is that it lacks cohesion and pacing, etc.
