Bobby is a whiny princess. Boo hoo Bobby
That last speech from Dean to Bobby? Take note Bobby, that is how you talk to the people you love, not that stupid rant you gave Dean. Memorize it, you might actually learn something.

I didn't even mind Dean's apologizing for calling Bobby an idiot: He was right, Bobby was. But once again, we see why Dean is the Righteous Man (or the bigger man, as had been noted in regard to other eps, like Fallen Idols). It may have been a correct assessment of Bobby's actions, but Dean probably felt it was too harsh at the moment, considering Bobby's state.

It would be nice if Bobby learned something and re-evaluated his idiotic rant in 4.22. But I'm pretty sure that as far as Kripke is concerned, that ship has sailed and Bobby will never apologize for it.

I wasn't surprised that Sam could bluff. We got that he could lie last season. Time for something new, isn't it?

Also, as to Sam's amazingness at poker, I announced loudly to my sister that "yeah Sam's amazing whatever, let's get back to Dean."
I think she thinks I hate Sam. I don't, of course. But whatever.

ps. weren't Sam and Dean supposed to kill the man-witch to stop him from doing what he was doing? The fact that he's free to go on turning young men into old men doesn't seem to have been addressed.

It just seems like they're making Bobby go OOC this season. Is there a new head writer on board or something? The Bobby we know and love would have had multiple anti-possession charms permanently etched on his person, making it very hard for him to get possessed. Nor would he go all boo-hoo after getting paralyzed, you know, after never letting Dean do the same after all the crap he's been through including inadvertently starting the chain reaction that began the freaking Apocalypse.

Unfortantly they are writting Bobby more and more John like when it comes to Dean, and I am getting sick of it. He should relize how lucky he is to have the boys who love him, and after how he treated Dean, in the finale, and having the nerve to act like his situation is worse then Dean being in hell, or possibly end up a vegtable or dead, if he is actually to be Michael's vessel, is less then what is dealing with, is making me loose any sympathy for Bobby, or see his logic, esp when compairing suffering with Dean.
Sad that Bobby can so willingly give Sam, an apology, and Dean is big enough to give Bobby, one but yet Dean still gets nothing from Bobby, and that is really dissapointing.

I understand Bobby's pain in a way, but I don't think this episode/storyline hit it home. It was about youth and years; a lot of young people have tragedies like Bobby's, and a lot of older people are active after they took care of themselves their entire lives. I think the focus was off. The pace was horrible, too, and the dialogue kind of stiff and VERY stale. Supernatural needs new tricks, I'm afraid. It's become too predictable in every single way.

And couldn't they have found some clever solution to the problem? Instead of, "Gee, Sam got lucky and just happened to end up with 2 fours in his hand"? And while we got told--yet again--that Sam is smart, I find they usually do that just before Sam does something dumb--like not notice that he totally got bamboozled by Patrick with the toothpick.

А это от нелюбителей Каса. Довольно занятный оборот
The best part was a welcome break from Castiel, whom I loathe. But if the best part of an episode for me was what *wasn't* in it, then that's not a very good sign!
