Quite like the new intro too, makes a nice change from the last few duller intro tiles.

Yeah, the new title is pretty baller.

Me too. Hopefully we still will.

Was on Netflix before season 8 started too I think. But more people watching is good either way. Too bad Vampire Diaries didn't get a bump.

I like thinking Supernatural got a bump from having a good last season.

Julian Richings in his role is always fascinating to watch. The stoic character of his acting brings life to Death, as odd as that might sound.

I have a feeling that eventually Cas will get his grace back and he'll end up having to possess Dean for some reason.

Cause why not troll the fanbase even harder?

Reading about fandom reactions to the girls is always interesting. I never realized how obsessive crazy they can get about it. Good thing I don't interact much with the Supa fandom.

There have been some girls that I liked and wished they would have appeared more. More so for Sam than Dean. I don't think I've liked any of "Dean's girls" yet (still on season 6).

Also it seems i may be in the minority that liked Bella. :O I didn't like her as a romantic interest for the guys but in general i liked her. She kinda had the whole catwoman thing going.

Cas will finally be inside Dean. Tumblr will reach critical mass and we'll all die.

It would still be a total troll though, since it would be a platonic possession :p

Solid enough opener I guess, better then previous seasons anyway. Usually they spend a great deal of time setting up a storyline at the start only to abandon it later when it becomes obvious to everyone its boring as hell. See: the Amelia storyline last year.

I always found the angel storylines to be the most boring so I'm not really looking forward to this season as much as others. Hope they improve though.

Alright, I had to get caught up on Season 8 first, but I'm all up to date now.

Season 8 got much better as it went along. Especially once the flashback stuff was out of the way. I liked Benny though :[

Opener was decent enough, though I kind of don't like that right off the bat were already back to Sam and Dean having some big issue/secret one is keeping from the other.

This was literally the first thing that flashed through my head when he made that suggestion. Add that into the fact that the angels can't see each others true forms now and well....

No, I have a bad feeling about this now. :/ It was mentioned way up above too, but I forgot about that episode where Dean was brought to the future in the episode "The End". He was brought to 2014 to see how the world was basically over. From what I remember, Cas didn't have his grace either. :/ Seems like it may be lining up for something like this.

Hopefully not, though! I'm not sure I want to revisit the Michael vs Lucifer story, but I honestly have no idea where the story is even heading right now. There isn't even a central villain right now unless they feel like going after Metatron? Seems kind of boring.

In any other show, I'd have let that little bit with Kevin and making her call him sir slide, but in a show that routine murders female characters for luz...ugh.

That said, this episode had a decidedly huge flaw, that being a distinct lack of Cas. Boo.

Over all:
-100 for slut shaming
-100 for zero Cas
+100 for random female hunter not dying a bloody death. Though they will get a -5000 if she sleeps with Sam and THEN dies a bloody horrible death.

After last weeks opener, I am firmly on the 'meh' side of this one. The Crowley bits were good, as always. Looking forward to next weeks.

Yo so, just started watching Supernatural season 1 here and there's one thing I'd like to know. No specific spoilers, but does the whole villain of the week structure ever go away? I like the premise of the show and I'm enjoying the main arc but half of these season 1 episodes just seem like filler and are very very formulaic. I know Smallville did the whole villain of the week thing for the first season as well. So does this ever change? I'm liking the show but just hoping future seasons follow more of a main arc.

It changes. There are still 'filler' episodes, but the overall arc gets way more attention as the seasons climb.

If a main story arc and a move away from MOTW is what you are looking for, keep watching.
