I haven't watched OUAT since the end of the Neverland arc, but this confuses me. Was Rose McGowan really that terrible in this episode? That makes me sad, because I really like the actress and also she was pretty great in The Miller's Daughter. I remember internet agreeing with me on that episode - has she gotten…

If he is a good actor, he's being directed horribly, I'd say. I liked JJL in her role last season even though her story was lacking, I don't like him as Pascal no matter what his story is.

Well yeah, what I meant is that I would've expected them to reveal Helena's survival later than in the episode immediately after her death.

Supernatural in particular has featured half the cast of Andromeda in episode roles. This fact continues to fill me with joy because Andromeda was the worst and I loved it more than anything.

I think that the Florentine dialect actually is proper generic Italian in that it's the basis for the 'received pronunciation' version of the language, but I don't actually speak Italian and it's besides the point anyway.

Rachel eventually joins them and begrudgingly accepts that Alison has superior dinner party planning skills.

I sort of got the impression that Ramon's not that kid's real name and Alison just insists on calling him that so she feels her drug and firearms transactions are exactly the way she imagines they are supposed to.

I found Felix almost insulting in the first few episodes because he really did read like a 80s comedy version of a gay character, but now I'm perfectly okay with him.

I'm not sure how I feel about Helena being alive. I mean, Helena's absolutely amazing, but did we really need to revive her so fast? I hope they know what they're doing with that particular plotline.

At this point, the show really needs to shift the paradigm hard. How about 'the weird place dead people are being sucked into sucks our main characters in, the entire sixth season happens in a hell dimension where love triangles don't exist, also Kol is a main character'? I'd be into that.

This would be much better if Middle Eastern Silas was… better. That's definitely a character that should be feared, respected or at least inspire passion of some kind, but he's just… a guy who's there, doing stuff.

I don't think we would have warring shippers if that theory was true? In my experience fans almost always have a preferred pairing and I think a 3-way pairing would get a negative reaction for more reasons than just breaking the fantasy.

I was going to defend this episode but they ended up taking it in a far less interesting place than I expected them to. The Damon/Elena stuff at the end was the worst it has ever been, the doppelgangers tying into the Traveller plot barely makes sense the Tyler reveal would have been much more efficient if they let…

I'm all for raising Meg from the dead though.

I disagree about the magic baby plot, I think it's for the best that the show spent a pretty long time ignoring that to develop the world around it to give it some weight.

I kind of thought that what we've seen of Dean this episode was another illusion that Metatron was writing, either for Dean himself, Sam or Gadreel. He seemed to have hit all the somewhat clichéd angsty Winchester marks he could.

I like that they remembered Chuck and his Supernatural novels, given that they're basically doing exactly that but with a villainous figure behind the typewriter. Wonder how they're going to defeat a guy who now has complete control over anything that happens to them ever.

I was surprised he just accepted that given how Metatron explained to him how it's all a part of his devious plan.

I like that they are keeping the doors open for an actual Gabriel return.

I'm beginning to think that while this was definitely the right time to go for Trinity and she never had a chance at actually winning this competition, she probably got out of it more than any of the queens still in the running. Maybe it's mostly editing magic, but can you imagine the Trinity from the first few…
