OH MY LAWD, LOL.
"The French Mistake"
SAM AND DEAN ARE TRANSPORTED TO AN ALTERNATE REALITY — Raphael (guest star Lanette Ware) launches an attack on Castiel (Misha Collins) and his allies, sending a particularly frightening angelic hitman (guest star Carlos Sanz) after Balthazar (guest star Sebastian Roche), Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles)... In an effort to protect the brothers, Balthazar sends them to an alternate universe where they are the stars of a TV show called "Supernatural" and they are actors named "Jensen Ackles" and "Jared Padalecki." The brothers are confused when Castiel appears to be a tweet-happy actor named Misha Collins and Sam is married to Ruby (Genevieve Cortese). Charles Beeson directed the episode written by Ben Edlund.
BEN EDLUND WROTE THE EPISODE!!!! \O/\O/\O/

NO NEED FOR WORRYING IF THINGS ARE GONNA BE RUINED AND SCREWED OVER BECAUSE BEN EDLUND WROTE THIS EPISODE, SO ALL WILL BE PERFECTLY FUCKING AWESOME. Never mind that this is precisely the kind of setup we've kind of speculated when the meta-episode was first talked about? With Balthazar hiding the Winchesters from this particular angelic hitman after them. Which is, of course, typical Edlund-style, mixing the wacky crazy with interesting plotty things like the angel civil war and Raphael targeting Castiel and all of that. IT IS JUST SO PERFECT READING THIS DESCRIPTION BECAUSE IT HAS EVERYTHING I COULD HAVE HOPED FOR AND LO AND BEHOLD, EDLUND GIVES IT TO US. <3 <3 <3 <3
ALSO?
...the brothers are confused when Castiel appears to be a tweet-happy actor named Misha Collins...
LOLING FOREVER BECAUSE I TOTES WANNA SEE THIS, OMGOMGOMGOMG. \O/
I AM SUPER EXCITED NOW FOR THIS EPISODE. NO LONGER BITING NAILS IN POTENTIAL SECOND-EMBARRASSMENT. I WANT THIS EPISODE NOW BECAUSE I AM SO TOTALLY GOING TO BE SQUEEING AND LAUGHING AND ANXIOUS TO SEE WHERE THIS HEADS BECAUSE YAY! BALANCING OUT THE CRACK WITH THE DRAMA AND MYSTERY. \O/
While the show returns tonight I don't think I'll be watching, though I have legitimate reasons for it. The main reason is because I'll be asleep when it comes on, since my sleeping schedule finally has returned back to normal hours I'm trying to stay that way, especially with this new job opportunity I have that requires a lot of energy on my part. I have to get solid hours of sleep otherwise I'll be too exhausted the next day, and I don't want to go back to my unusual sleeping patterns which leads me not being myself and I've desperately want to avoid that. The other reason is because...I simply don't want to. I'm not enthusiastic about the show as I once had been so, missing tonight's episode isn't a huge loss on my part.
Thankfully I have you all who see the episode before I do, so I'll be reading reaction posts before I turn in for the night. ;)
BESIDES IF THIS EPISODE DOES NOT INCLUDE ACTUAL MOTHERFUCKING DRAGONS WITH HUGEASS WINGS THAT SPIT OUT FIRE A LA HARRY POTTER STYLE I WILL BE SUPER ANNOYED AND CALL FOUL. JUST SAYING.

IDK what to wait about this episode, but I can only hope for a hug. Or two. Or three. or... yeah.
no subject
I've been hearing wariness from others that this new episode will have Dean and Castiel at ends with each other while Sam and Castiel will be getting closer, by means of a possibly awkward hug or something. I'm fearing Sera Gamble wants that instead of a Dean/Castiel hug because she doesn't favor Dean, but I honestly don't think that any Sam and Castiel interaction will ever be as profound or amazingly awesome as Dean/Castiel. idk :/
no subject
However, the description sort of stepped on my embarrassment squick button and kept its foot there for a while. I think I might skip this one and just enjoy watching the fallout. :/
no subject
Awwww, well. I figured there's still some people wary about the second-hand embarrassment, however reading this description kind of eases that a bit because it's all part of an elaborate plan on saving the Winchesters from evil angels. Plus Balthazar, and Misha PLAYING HIMSELF! \O/ I CANNOT WAIT!

I'LL BE READING WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING, THOUGH I'LL HAVE TO MAKE MY OWN REACTION TO THE REACTIONS TOMORROW, LOL!
no subject
And I totally agree regarding the Balthazar versus Gabriel debate going on. Like, okay, at first was was kind of like "eh" regarding that that's how Balthazar chooses to save and protect them because it does seem very Gabriel-ish and it made us get our hopes up based on the promise about them bringing Gabriel back into the show somehow. HOWEVER, they are totally two different characters. Gabriel left Heaven because he couldn't handle the family feud and wanted to protect himself by leaving until it was all over. Balthazar left Heaven because he wanted to, he stole some weapons from Heaven as well so he has ulterior motives for being on Earth (with his bargaining with humans and whatnot). Totally different motives there.
But really, angels can manipulate so many things through time and alternate universes. So even if it does seem like a Gabriel-esque thing to do, Balthy and Gabe are totally different characters and we shouldn't see it as such.

YAY MISHA AS MISHA.
I'm undecided about Balthazar helping them. How? Since when? And helping them by putting them in an alternate TV universe?
Stop stealing tricks from Gabriel, and I'd like you better.OTOH, FEMALE!RAPHAEL. FEMALE ARCHANGEL. IT'S ABOUT TIME, WE NEED MORE GENDER SWITCHING ANGELS.
no subject
I'm wondering how the female!version of Raphael is going to work. I view angels as androgynous and don't care about the gender their human vessel is since it doesn't affect them or this mission (ex. Castiel being able to go from Jimmy to his daughter Claire) so I'm hoping this solidifies that notion about angels can be in any human vessel regardless, as long as it fits with the particular bloodline they are connected to.
But it bothers me that there is an upcoming new angel named "Rachel". Angelical name fail to the max..... :|
