I wasn't really taken with that episode I have to confess. I started writing up why and it sounded like sour grapes so I've decided to just say that even though it had some funny moments (Jensen and his physical comedy being a highlight) and a couple of cute bro moments (Sam ribbing Dean while watching the wrestling), overall it left me feeling pretty flat and disappointed (and a bit squicked tbh). It might be that I'm feeling flat today due to a cold, so I'll watching it again to get a better perspective (though I will have to skip the Lucifer & Crowley scenes and the torture scene *meep*)

Happy to discuss in comments if anyone wants to chat. :)

I actually feel kind of bad now because it seems that so many people hated this one, and I actually quite liked it. Maybe it's because I went into it not expecting a whole lot? I enjoyed Dean in the ring and I thought it was really cute how the two of them went to see the match together, were cheering and all that, and the bro moments. To me it seemed like a nice little break from all the Amara/Lucifer mytharc stuff (well, that part of the episode, anyway...not that I'm saying it was totally free of mytharc but you know what I mean).

I did have a few issues with it, mainly Casifer getting on my nerves and like others have mentioned, it did bug me that neither of the boys (especially Sam) even attempted to exorcise that demon. But IDK, I liked it. Maybe I'm just on a high from the cuteness & bro moments...to me it was like a nice little birthday present.

I hope your cold eases up soon!

Oh hun! Never feel back for liking an episode! Just the opposite I'd say. :)) And actually, I don't think many "hated" it. I didn't hate - I just didn't like it much. I think many loved it actually. There were certainly things to love. For me, it was probably hard after loving last week's so much. :)

And I agree - the things you liked about it were good for me too. I liked that the boys had a chance to get away from it all (just not the way it was done…).

Happy birthday! It was indeed a nice birthday present for you! <3
