Sep. 27th, 2013 07:34 pmDay 15: Episode that makes you cry
There is one episode that genuinely made me sob my wee heart out. I was so upset I took myself off to a park bench by the river to contemplate the meaning of it all. I was not, however, crying in response to something I probably should have been crying about (someone dying for example) but rather because I hated the episode so much it felt like a massive turning point. I actually thought my love affair with SPN was over.
That episode was Citizen Fang. I'm not going to rehash all those feelings now. They are here if you want to know what I am talking about. Perhaps a touch over dramatic, now that I look back - but wow. I've never reacted to TV like that before. I honestly thought it was time to say goodbye and man, the feels...:((. Luckily it was short lived and I found myself (mostly) in love again..:D
Now for eps that actually made me cry because...sadness!
Top of my list is Ellen and Jo's death in Abandon All Hope. I felt Ellen's anguish. Probably because I'm a mother of a girl it really hit home. Samantha and Alona gave stella performances and the moment was beautifully handled. Ellen's "kick it in the ass" also brings a tear knowing it was for the late Kim Manners.
Other moments that I might have had something in my eye: Bobby's death, Dean crying over Sam's dead body, Dean's death, Sam and Dean beating each other up in Levee Breaks, Dean recalling hell in Heaven and Hell, Dean throwing away the amulet (still in tears!!) and pretty much any time the boys cry.
