It's writing and consistency of storytelling has improved out of sight from the last 2 seasons and where I think there's still work to do, Jeremy Carver and his team have made dramatic inroads in returning this show to the heart of what it's always been about, the brothers.<br /><br />The first half of the season is challenging for a number of reasons, the biggest being Sam's decision not to look for Dean and how that affects the story and Dean AND Sam. As difficult as that was to understand or even like, it becomes clear that there was reason for this story madness that I hope you'll see as you traverse the season. The backend of season 8 has been one of my favourite Supernaturals seasons ever! I can't wait until you get there!sweetondeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01521111526235603389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5468827929342532499.post-21995598863171146562013-05-30T08:00:13.114+10:002013-05-30T08:00:13.114+10:00I never even thought about any of this Sam stuff- ...I never even thought about any of this Sam stuff- you really open my eyes and help me see it from a whole different perspective.<br />I'm actually writing because I LOVED this episode - this to me is what Supernatural is all about. The comedy was perfect, the imagination from the writers - fantastic! The relationship between the brothers and Cass - amazing! I couldn't get enough of this episode. I actually love these one off episodes that still focus on the relationship arc, but not necessarily on the Big Bad - I've been waiting to get excited about this show again and I am - woopeey!Ajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15290332251318136871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5468827929342532499.post-22324547078656447472012-12-03T18:42:20.781+11:002012-12-03T18:42:20.781+11:00Hi!

They are well written and they go into deep in the episodes so they are always a pleasure to read.<br /><br />In this review i agree expecially with your take about the Dean's PTSD of this season. It's not the same PTSD of the past. He's not depressed, alcholic like he was when he returned from Hell. In Purgatory he was in charge, he was doing what he's good at: killing monsters. So of course in my opinion he's not going to have a breakdown very soon because there is nothing depressing about his experience in Purgatory for him. He was basically at his best. The only unhappy thing that happened was the thing with Cas and they resolved it in the seventh episode.<br />So his PTSD this time is more about re-adjusting in the real world (and i don't think he was completely honest with Cas when he told him in this episode that he took him few weeks to re-adjust like if now he's completely well because last episode you can see that he wasn't still sleeping) and his changes are more psychological and emotional: he's more open about his feelings and with others, there are less walls around his heart, and he doesn't see the world as black and white like before. It's like Purgatory was some sort of therapy for him.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771345984090693116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5468827929342532499.post-80799122684998400662012-12-02T17:57:35.185+11:002012-12-02T17:57:35.185+11:00I think there's something definitely in the De...I think there's something definitely in the Dean/Don, the dead husband who died in battle, the dead brother who died in battle.... <br />It's whether all is a fabrication, Amelia doesn't exist, or if some is real and some is not....the thing is doing my head in!sweetondeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01521111526235603389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5468827929342532499.post-70244729105509734242012-12-02T17:54:09.356+11:002012-12-02T17:54:09.356+11:00I think there's no way Amelia was real.

I could tell when she came back shocked that "Don" was still alive, that was the moment that delusional Sam found out Dean was still alive.
