I actually liked the episode on it's own, but felt that it doesn't set up much for next season. Angels are pretty tired and I was hoping the gates to heaven would be shut for good. The timing seemed perfect for it, as we've branched off with the Men of Letters stuff. Angels are too powerful and don't offer anything…

Like to hear it here it go.

Aw Nuts, Mom's a Ghost was the only bright spot in an otherwise catatonic night. And did Californians go on for 30 minutes, or did it just feel like it?

Late to the party, but whoa. Song for Zula melted my mind in the best way possible.

I have to agree that Jensen Ackles is definitely the superior actor. You can "see" Jared Padalecki acting pretty much all of the time, while Ackles always feels much more natural. Padalecki has his go-to tics that you can check off whenever Sam is frustrated, happy, sad, brooding, etc. Plus he tends to overact when…

He also turned into a space lizard after going Warp 11 and proceeded to impregnate space lizard Katherine Janeway, siring a brood of now orphaned space lizard children. Give the guy a break. 

I thought it was Spanish Flea? I'll have to rewatch.

The funniest gag in this episode was the torture music in the demon trap. Subtle, devious touch.

Booger is Metatron. BOOGER IS FREAKING METATRON.

Let me stop you right there. Did you just say Joe Carroll was as scary as Tim Curry's Pennywise? Because that clown is scary as @$%^.

You think the guy is dead? I assume it was all a part of his "plan" and he had a spare body in there with reworked teeth (they sure were hammering home that the "dental records matched"). Either that or he has a follower in the police dept.'s dental bureau.

E.T. man. E.T.

I haven't been in a 7-11 since I was in middle school buying Slim-Jims. No amount of product placement could get me in one. It's Dirt Bag Mecca.

"Go fuck yourself"? Wow, someone's got some issues to work out. Sorry if I think grown men in underwear pretending to fight and dominate one another is a laughable, though entirely homo-erotic, entertainment. Clearly there's something for everyone though.

Can the AV Club do a piece that explains how pro wrestling is still a thing? How can something like this exist, especially when you have a real counterpart in MMA? 

Adventure Time did it.

It wasn't bad but I thought they could have pushed it further.

Did you see those pliers?!? There's no way they could cut through any part of a handcuff. You'd need large bolt cutters and even then you'd be lucky to get through them. There's no way.

I'm fairly certain you couldn't break a pair of handcuffs with a common pair of pliers. Doubly so if you're in the awkward position she was in. You can do better, writers.

Given that the consensus reaction in my house at the end of the episode was a "what?!? are you kidding me?!?" I think a B+ is a bit generous.
