SPN 5.08 CAPSLOCK POST!

[rogueslayer452]

OMG. OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG.

THIS EPISODE WAS FANTABULICIOUS!

FIRST OF ALL, THE OPENING TITLE CREDITS WITH THE THEME SONG IMITATING FULL FUCKING HOUSE??? I NEARLY FUCKING DIED RIGHT THERE. HOLY SHIT THAT WAS BRILLIANT. AND WITH THE CHEESY DIALOGUE AND THE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS JUST HOLY SHIT THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS SHIT RIGHT THERE.

DEAN WATCHING DAYTIME TV. BEING A FAN OF A GREY'S ANATOMY-ESQUE SOAP MEDICAL DRAMA? I LOVE IT.

BUT WHAT I LOVE EVEN MORE? DEAN HAVING A MANCRUSH ON THIS "DR. SEXY"!!! WHICH IS MAKING FUN OF THE MCDREAMY AND MCSTEAMY FROM GA. LOL I LOVE IT!!!! XD

LOL @ THE MENTIONING OF THE "SERIOUSLY" LINES AND OF COURSE THEY WOULD BRING IN THE OWN DOCTOR-SEES-A-GHOST STORYLINE, WHICH FYI IS PRECISELY THE ROLE THAT OUR VERY OWN JOHN WINCHESTER PLAYED ON GREYS. LOL THEY WERE JUST PINING TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT FOR AGES, WEREN'T THEY? LOLOLOL

JAPANESE GAME SHOW!!!! XD I LITERALLY DIED OF LAUGHTER, BECAUSE YES I HAVE SEEN JAPANESE GAME SHOWS. THEY ARE JUST THAT CRAZY, EVEN MORE SO. DEAN'S REACTION TO SAM GETTING HIT IN THE BALLS WAS SO FUNNY, AS WAS SAM'S REACTION TO IT. HOLY SHIT, I LOVED IT SO FUCKING MUCH, MORE THAN I REALLY SHOULD HAVE ACTUALLY.

CASTIEL ENTERING THE GAME SHOW = LMAO!!!!

HONESTLY, CASTIEL CAN MAKE THE BEST ENTRANCE EVEN WHEN IT'S ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. HIS STUNNED AND CONFUSED FACE WAS LOLARIOUS AND I LOVED THAT THEY WERE LIKE "IS THAT REALLY HIM?" AND HE'S ALL "YEAH IT'S REALLY ME...WTF ARE YOU DOING HERE?" XD THERE BETTER BE FUCKING GIFS OF THIS BECAUSE, DUD, LOLING AWAY OVER HERE.

SAM + HERPES COMMERCIAL = OMGLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

CASTIEL ENTERING THE SITCOM WAS ALSO LOLARIOUS, AND HE WAS BLOODY! AWWW, WHOMP!CAS. AND THEN HE HAD DUCKTAPE OVER HIS MOUTH!!!

HOW MUCH AM I LOVING THE CRAZY WACKY SITUATIONS CASTIEL IS ENDURING FROM THIS EPISODE? TTTTHHHHHIIIISSSS MMMMMUUUUCCCHHHH!! :D :D :D :D :D

SAM AND DEAN BOTH DOING HORATIO IMPRESSIONS = HILARITY GOLD.

SAM AS THE IMPALA = MORE COMEDY GOLD! HE WAS TALKING TO DEAN THROUGH THE RADIO, WITH THE LIGHTS, OMG! AND THE KNIGHT RIDER THEME SONG! XDDDD

STILL THINK THE RED LIGHT IS THE CYLON RED LIGHT, SRY BBS I CAN'T HELP IT!

OMG THAT TWIST WAS FUCKING AMAZING! THE TRICKSTER IS ACTUALLY GABRIEL THE ARCHANGEL! :O :O :O

I LOVED HOW WE HAD SUCH A SERIOUS ENDING TO A HILARIOUS EPISODE, AND BY SERIOUS I MEAN PLOT-RELATED, BECAUSE AS MUCH AS THE STAND-ALONE EPISODES HAVE BEEN OKAY LETS FOCUS ON THE END OF THE WORLD, KTHX. AND THIS EPISODE DIDN'T FAIL TO DELIVER THAT BECAUSE, UM, ANGELS? FUCK YEAH BBS. THE TRICKSTER-TO-BE-GABRIEL IS ACTUALLY TOTALLY FUCKING AWESOME, IN MY OPINION, AND IT REALLY SAYS A LOT ABOUT CERTAIN ANGELS AND THEIR FEELINGS ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING - AND WHAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN HEAVEN. AND I LOVE THE PARALLELING BETWEEN THE HEAVEN AND EARTH, OF THE BROTHERS OF HEAVEN AND THE BROTHERS OF EARTH AND HOW THEY HAD ALREADY CHOSEN SAM AND DEAN SINCE THE BEGINNING (WHICH I HAVE MORE THOUGHTS ON LATER BECAUSE, HELLO META-CITY WITH WHAT WAS GIVEN IN THE END HERE!) AND I AM JUST, SO IN LOVE WITH WHAT WAS PROVIDED.

AND DEAN WAS WORRIED ABOUT HIS CASTIEL! AWWW. *DRAWS HEARTS AROUND THEM* HE ASKED HIM IF HE WAS ALRIGHT, AND HE SAID HE WAS FINE! :D OF COURSE HE WASN'T FINE BECAUSE, WELL, HE FOUND OUT IT WAS HIS BROTHER, GABRIEL AND ALL. BUT NEVERTHELESS, DEAN/CASTIEL!!! ♥

LOVED THE ENDING WITH SAM, DEAN AND CASTIEL WALKING AWAY. TOGETHER. HOLY SHIT LOVE. AND DEAN'S SPEECH ABOUT FAMILY, YEAH. YOU TELL HIM DEAN.

AND THAT LOOK THAT CASTIEL GAVE GABRIEL - OH, IF LOOKS COULD KILL, BB. WOW.

LOVE. LOVE THIS EPISODE, LOVE KRIPKE FOR ADDING THIS TO CANON AND MAKING IT SO EPIC AND JUST. YEAH.

NEXT WEEK'S EPISODE - HOW IRONIC IS IT THAT THE EPISODE IS GOING TO BE ABOUT A SUPERNATURAL CONVENTION AND THE CHICAGO CON IS THAT VERY WEEKEND, WHICH I AM GOING TO????? XD LOL KRIPKE, JUST LOL ILU FOREVER AND EVER. FANDOM IS CANON. TRUFAX.

The two things I loved most was the fact that Dean was a closet fan and the Herpes. LMAO!

And the twist with the Trickster being an Archangel was awesome! Of course, another reviewer asked if the whole Trickster reveal has been in the works since season 2. It makes me wonder.

I feel bad for Gab. but Dean was right. He was being a coward. The Angels are one messed up family for real.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Seeing Dean as a fanboy was such a total surprise, and a closet fanboy of a soap opera-ish medical drama show no less! XD The more we learn about Dean these days, I swear.

And the twist with the Trickster being an Archangel was awesome! Of course, another reviewer asked if the whole Trickster reveal has been in the works since season 2. It makes me wonder.

That would be an interesting question to ask Kripke, though I'm not sure if he planned for the Trickster to become the archangel back then or if he had another plan in mind for the Trickster to be something else, just not what he was supposed to be. But it would make sense given that the wooden stakes didn't kill the Trickster from before, and this places a perfectly good explanation as to why that is.

First Raphael and now Gabriel. The angels in Heaven are pretty fucked over and messed up, but I'm actually liking how we're getting more information about what's happening up in Heaven bit by bit, and how the other angels are feeling about it. I felt for Gabriel, but yeah Dean was right. I'm hoping that Gabriel helps them out at some point or returns back to his family, because I've always kinda liked the Trickster, particularly since "Mystery Spot" and his lesson to Sam.

It really was an awesome episode, such an amazing reveal and hilarious to boot. CASTIEL IN COMEDY-SETTINGS! WHODATHUNK IT? XD

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

He was never actually staked.

Kripke didn't have the angel arc until he actually wrote Season Four, so.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Except he kinda was.

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

That was a replicant he created that then disappeared. Unless you're referring to something in Changing Channels (which I missed).

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

The first time they "killed" him yes, it was a decoy of himself to fool them. But in this episode it could go either way, he either did the same thing or they did stake him because it didn't work because he's unaffected by it.

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

Oh, so you do mean Changing Channels. I was so caught up in watching The Plan with my parents on Thursday that I totally forgot about Supernatural. But the way you said it sounded like a reference to Tall Tales.

[falsebeginnings.livejournal.com]

AND DEAN WAS WORRIED ABOUT HIS CASTIEL! AWWW. *DRAWS HEARTS AROUND THEM*
I JUST NEED THEM TO MAKE OUT ALREADY. AL;SKDF;LWSLKDFJPAE;SAL WITH THE TRICKSTER BEING GABRIEL AND DEAN'S SPEECH WITH HIM WAS FTW. I REALLY LIKE THE HINTS OF LEADER!DEAN BEING SPRINKLED THROUGHOUT THE EPISODES.

OMG AT THE GENITAL HERPES COMMERCIAL! AND THE HORATIO IMPRESSIONS AND THE GREY'S ANATOMY SPOOF (I wish Castiel had showed up during that so he could get jealous at Dean's totally obvious mancrush at Doctor Sexy).

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

OH GOD YES, ITA. THEY REALLY DO NEED TO MAKE OUT, LIKE, SINCE FOREVER. FOR SERIOUS.

LEADER!DEAN, HELL YES. :D

I WAS WAITING FOR CASTIEL TO SHOW UP BECAUSE ONCE I SAW HIS NAME IN THE CREDITS (HILARIOUS CREDITS TOO, WITH THE "AND MISHA COLLINS AS CASTIEL" LOL) I WAS WAITING FOR HIM TO APPEAR AT SOME POINT. I REALLY WANTED HIM TO POP UP IN THE MEDICAL HOSPITAL STRUTTING THE HALLWAYS LIKE HE DID IN 5.02 - BUT HIM STRUTTING THROUGH THE DOORS WITH HIS PERFECT ENTRANCES WILL DO. ;D

I KINDA WANT DEAN TO PATCH UP WHUMP!CAS THOUGH, JUST BECAUSE. ;D

[entangled-now.livejournal.com]

I LOVED THE NODS TO PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING! AND CASTIEL TRYING TO MAK AN ENTRANCE ONLY TO BE COCKBLOCKED BY HIS BROTHER! WHICH WAS THE BEST REVEAL EVER! HUMOUR + PLOT + ANGST = WIN! \o/

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

LOL HE SO TOTES WAS COCKBLOCKED BY HIS BROTHER! HE WANTED TO BE WITH HIS DEAN BUT THEN GABRIEL WAS ALL "NUH-UH, I'M PLAYING WITH THEM NOW!" LOL CASTIEL MUST'VE BEEN PISSED EVEN MORE BECAUSE HE COULDN'T MAKE A PROPER EXIT AND BE WITH HIS BOYFRIEND. XD

I LOVE THIS REVEAL SO FUCKING MUCH, AND THE USE OF HUMOR AND PLOT AND BROTHERLY ANGST IS JUST, OH! THIS IS MY SHOW! LOVE! :D

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

SRSLY, THAT WAS AWESOME JUST SEEING THEM WALKING AWAY. ALL THREE OF THEM. JUST, YES. FUCKING YES TO THAT.

I'M JUST ALL :( BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT CASTIEL'S ENTIRE FAMILY HAS BETRAYED AND LET HIM DOWN, ONE BY ONE. IT'S LIKE, WHERE ARE ALL THE GOOD-NATURED AND FAITHFUL ANGELS ANYMORE? CASTIEL CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE. THAT'S JUST SO SAD. AT LEAST HE HAS DEAN, THOUGH.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

THIS IS WHAT I'M MORE INTRIGUED BY, BECAUSE IN SPN LUCIFER LOVED GOD MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE, AND REFUSED TO LOVE MANKIND MORE THAN HIM, THEREFORE HE WAS BANISHED AND FELL. AND HE FEELS LIKE HE WAS BETRAYED FOR BEING THAT GOOD SON - AND HAVING HIM ATTEMPT TO BRING CASTIEL TOWARDS HIS SIDE, BECAUSE HE ALSO BELIEVES TO BE A GOOD SON IN STILL BELIEVING IN THEIR FATHER AND THAT HE'S OUT THERE SOMEWHERE, IT'S JUST SO TEMPTING BECAUSE CASTIEL WANTS TO PROVE THE OTHERS WRONG. TO PROVE THAT GOD STILL IS AROUND.

I REALLY, REALLY LIKE CASTIEL'S ARC THIS SEASON. OF HIM HAVING SUCH FAITH AND HOPE, EVEN IF IT'S HANGING ON A STRING AT THIS POINT WITH NOBODY BUT THAT FAITH IN GOD AND IN DEAN, BECAUSE DEAN IS THE ONLY ONE LEFT WHO HE TRULY DOES TRUST WITH HIS LIFE (AND VICE VERSA, TOO). I LOVE THAT OUT OF ALL THE ANGELS WE'VE SEEN, IT'S CASTIEL WHO IS THE MOST OPTIMISTIC AND FAITHFUL AND LOYAL TO THEIR FAMILY, EVERYONE ELSE HAS BEEN CONVERTED OR HAS TWISTED VIEWS AND PLANS OR HAS JUST GIVEN UP HOPE. AND THAT? IS SAD. JUST OMG.

FAMILY ANGST AND DOWNFALL = APOCALYPSE, AMIRITE? PARTICULARLY WHEN WE'RE DEALING WITH SUCH SUPERNATURAL BEINGS LIKE ANGELS AND DEMONS AND WHATNOT, AND HUMANS JUST BEING CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE.

I'M ACTUALLY WAITING FOR GOD TO SHOW UP AND BE ALL "HEY! I DID NOT AUTHORIZE ANY APOCALYPSE! WHAT UP?"

[alexwhitman25.livejournal.com]

OMG SO MUCH GOODNESS!!

THEY CAN REMEMBER THERE IS AN APOCALYPSE GOING ON!!! EVEN IF I STILL WONDER WHAT THE HELL LUCI IS DOING THIS WHOLE TIME.

POOR SWEET CAS SEEMS LIKE HE IS THE ALWAYS PICKED ON YOUNGER BROTHER. HOW CAN YOU FELLOW ANGELS NOT WANT TO JUST SMOOSH HIS GORGEOUS LITTLE FACE. I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN GABE CALLED HIM A PRETTY BOY ANGEL.

AND DEAN, DEAN! HE WAS AWESOME LEADER DEAN AGAIN AND I THINK HE GAVE GABRIEL SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT AND MAYBE GOOD OLD GABE WILL DECIDE TO BE ON THE SIDE OF GOOD COME HELL OR HIGH WATER. PLZ!

I LOVE, LOVE THAT THE TRICKSTER HAS BEEN GABRIEL THIS WHOLE TIME. IT TICKLES ME SO AND GIVES ME HOPE THAT THIS APOCALYPSE STUFF IS GONNA BE MORE THAN JUST HIJINKS AND COBBLED TOGETHER THINGS. AND I THOUGHT I LIKED RAPHAEL, PSHHH...GABRIEL IS EVEN BETTER!

PLUS DEAN/CAS FOREVERS. DEAN WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT HIS POOR LITTLE WOOBIE BOYFRIEND.

OMG, ARE YOU TOTES EXCITED ABOUT THE CON?? MISHA FUCKING COLLINS BB!!!

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

I HAS MY THEORIES. I'M GUESSING LUCIFER IS TRYING TO CONTAIN THE VESSEL HE HAS WHILE PLOTTING EVIL PLOTS.

"PRETTY BOY ANGEL" WILL BECOME A NEW ADOPTED TERM FOR CASTIEL, WON'T IT? AND OF COURSE, WHY WOULDN'T IT? HE IS PRETTY AND HE IS SIMPLY ADORABLE, BUT YEAH, IT SEEMS THAT CASTIEL IS THE LITTLE ANGEL THAT GETS PICKED ON A LOT. HOLY SHIT, MY POOR BABY. I REALLY REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHERE HE WAS SENT OFF TO TO BE ALL BEATEN UP AND WHUMPED LIKE THAT, BECAUSE THIS SEASON HE'S ALL UNF AND BADASS AND SHIT.

I LOVED DEAN TAKING CHARGE LIKE THAT, GIVING THAT SPEECH IN THE END WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. HOLY SHIT, I LOVE HOW FIERCE HE SOUNDED WHEN HE WAS TALKING ABOUT FAMILY. JUST, YEAH.

I REALLY HOPE THAT GABRIEL WILL CONSIDER WHAT DEAN SAID, AND THAT LOOK THAT CASTIEL GAVE HIM IN THE END? THAT WHOLE "YOU BETRAYED US" LOOK IS JUST SO, OMG, INTENSE AND HURT ALL AT ONCE. WOW. MISHA CAN SAY SO MUCH WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING AT ALL. HOT DAMN.

I LOVE THAT REVEAL. JUST LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. THE FACT THAT HE ABANDONED HEAVEN, TOOK ON THE LIBERTY TO GET A DISGUISE TO HIDE AND JUST LET THINGS FALL AS THEY GO, JUST HOLY SHIT. I LOVE THE NEW REVELATIONS ABOUT HEAVEN AND THAT IT'S PRETTY MUCH GONE TO SHIT SINCE THEIR FATHER ISN'T THERE - WHICH I HAVE PLENTY OF META ON, BECAUSE I FIND THIS PARALLEL LINK BETWEEN HUMANS AND ANGELS VERY FASCINATING. AND GABRIEL, HE SOUNDED SO WOUNDED ABOUT EVERYTHING, JUST WANTING IT ALL TO END. JUST. WOW. I WANT MORE OF HIM AND OF RAPHAEL, PLZ. THEY ARE AMAZING CHARACTERS (PERHAPS GABE AND RAPHAEL CAN HAVE A LITTLE CHAT, MAYBE?)

DEAN/CASTIEL = BOYFRIENDS FOR LIFEEEE! *SQUISHES THEM*

I AM TOTES EXCITED ABOUT THE CON, BB! THE CLOSER IT GETS THE MORE OVERWHELMED I'M BECOMING, JUST HOLY SHIT! MISSSHHAAAA! :D

[bold-seer.livejournal.com]

TWISTS AND LAUGHS AND MEDICAL DRAMA = WHY WE LOVE SPN.

CASTIEL! CASTIEL!! CASTIEL!!! POOR ANGEL GOT HURT.

PERSONALLY, I THOUGHT DR SEXY DIDN'T LIVE UP TO HIS NAME. UNLIKE CERTAIN PRETTY BOY ANGELS. XD

AND DEAN WAS WORRIED ABOUT HIS CASTIEL! AWWW. *DRAWS HEARTS AROUND THEM* HE ASKED HIM IF HE WAS ALRIGHT

AREN'T THEY ADORABLE? DEAN WILL TAKE CARE OF HIM.

SAM + HERPES COMMERCIAL

OH, DEAR - HE LOOKED SO PAINED. XD

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

IT WAS TOO GLORIOUS TO NOT LOVE. I WAS HOWLING WITH LAUGHTER AND GOING "OH SNAP!" TOWARDS THE END, JUST OH MAN. LOVE.

I REALLY REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHERE GABRIEL SENT HIM WHERE HE GOT ALL BEATEN UP. IT APPEARS THAT POOR CASTIEL WAS NOT ONLY COCKBLOCKED BUT CANNOT PLAY IN ANY OF THE ANGEL GAMES IN HEAVEN. :( OH, CAS.

BUT YES, DEAN WILL TAKE CARE OF HIS ANGEL, BECAUSE HE LOVES HIM SO. ♥

SAM LOOKED LIKE HE WANTED TO PUNCH SOMEONE FOR DOING THAT COMMERCIAL, LOL.

[ladypandora16.livejournal.com]

Such an awesome ep! Funny and interesting and moved plot forward? That's talent.

Dean fanboying over Dr. Sexy? Brilliant. All those years of traveling on the road of course Dean would get hooked on crap dramas.

Laughed SO hard at the Herpes commercial. God, there is just something about uncomfortable!Sam that is just so damn funny.

ALSO, POOR CAS! HE IS THE RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER OF THE ANGEL WORLD! ALL OF THE OTHER ANGELS LAUGH AND CALL HIM NAMES! THEY NEVER LET POOR CAS JOIN IN THE ANGEL GAMES!

*is a dork*

[silverusagi]

GABRIEL. Don't mind me, I have been amusing myself looking up old "Gabriel reaction posts". The level of flail after this episode is truly glorious indeed.
