Oh yeah, guilt tripping vet weirded me out too. A vet would be happy that the dude who hit the dog even brought it in, instead of just driving off like 90% of people do.

Did Crowley get a power boost or something?
He has never been able to do that thing where he made them drop the demon killing knife before. Even when he was threatened by it in the past.

Seems so..either that or just picked up some new tricks.
I wish they would stop deliberately creating situations to make the brothers not trust each other, argue and etc. I get they have different personalities but it's kind of getting old how they'll trust each other by the end of the season, only to have it break all apart again at the beginning of the next.
I seem to recall there is a theory out there that Crowley isn't actually a demon. I think this was even brought up at the latest convention where they talked about the new season and they didn't really address it out right or smack it down either. Perhaps this plays into his power boost. Guy can fake dying after all.
Good start to the new season. If the vet is suppose to be Sam's love interest I'm not really that crazy about her yet. Bad first impression, at least for me.

A theory I read on Crowley is that he is a fallen angel, which is why he knows Enochian (spelling???) and knew all the symbols to keep angels away and was just a general bamf. I think.

He is also the King of Hell now, which means he's probably got some shiny new powers since he's the boss demon.

That is how I thought of it.
There is that of course but he's never actually shown any demonic traits that the other demons have in the show I believe. Even before he became King of Hell.

Sam's panic attack about the dog felt so lame. Other than that it was a decent episode.

That vet needs to spend less time with small animals, her understanding of human emotion seems to be very limited.

That was for his minions to do. And hellhounds.

Except little Sam.
Exactly what I thought of when he said it.
It makes me wish the kitsune was still around.

Geez, what a boring premiere. I hope next week is better.
You should see his real-life wife. You'll be amazed.
We've all seen her.

The episode was the definition of meh. Hoping they turn it around this season, but with no Bobby or Castiel I just don't see it.
I'm sure Cas isn't gone for good.
Started off well with Dean resurrecting a vampire in Louisiana. What followed was 30 minutes of not much happening. I love this Benny character already. He could be the new Castiel in how popular he could be with the fans. Hope things pick up though, some of the future episode descriptions should really promising.
They fought Osiris but that's about it I think.

I think this time it's more interesting, though, because for seven seasons Dean has been the one who says no alliances with monsters. You can't trust demons. And so on. He even killed the kitsune behind Sam's back. And now? He's palling around with a vampire. It's an interesting change and it really highlights how far Dean had to go to survive purgatory.
I really hope they continue to go more into what happened in purgatory because it's a whole lot different than the brothers' trips to hell, where instead of basically being trapped and tortured until another force brought them out, Dean was actually fighting to escape himself.
Also...what happens when you kill something in purgatory?

Should I bother watching the seventh season guys, or just jump into this? I watched and loved season 1-5, was pretty "meh" on most of season 6 (couple really good episodes in there though), don't know if I want to trudge through 7 or not though, especially if it doesn't have much Cas as I've heard.

Series seven was good, much better than series six and I think you should watch it. It has one of the funniest episodes they've done for a while.

That's what I kind of was expecting. When Dean was talking with Benny, I was half-waiting for the corpses on the ground to regenerate and they'd kill them again before taking off.

I'm hoping this arc pans out better than the leviathan disappointment.
I'm pretty sure we - in the UK - have some pretty fascinating place names.
Aren't [most] demons just corrupted human souls? It is pretty impressive that despite not being around for that long Crowley has managed to beat out the other demons and become king of hell.

skipped last season, and no problem jumping to this season. not a bad episode considering I was wanting more after that cliffhanger
Sam intentionally hit that dog so he can bring that dog to that vet and hook up.

Some Episodes are worth watching for S7:
E01 - Meet the new Boss
E02 - Hello, Cruel World
E09 - How to win Friends and Influence Monsters
E10 - Death's Door
Just the fact that Crowley is the big baddie should be good. I just want the series to be done with the Brothers angst against each other for various reasons. For fuck's sake, just go kill some monsters.

New Castiel info from EW:
Im still reeling from last weeks season premiere of Supernatural. But the one thing that has left me with a pit of fear in my stomach is this mystery surrounding Cas. (Seriously, how creepy was Dean while talking about it in the cabin? Love!) But as Misha Collins told a group of journos during a set visit to Vancouver, whatever transpired in Purgatory between the two of them started off as an act of penance for Cas.
[Cas] left Dean because he wanted to try to keep him safe, he says. [Cas] being around is actually a liability in Purgatory, and hes working to try to right the wrongs of his past doings.
Episodes 7 and 8 will reveal much much more on that front as well as enlighten the audience about Cas arc for the season that involves a big threat, says Collins. Theres something going on with Cas that neither Cas nor the brothers know. Cas is sort of being manipulated behind the scenes and hes not aware of that and neither are the boys, he says. Well see how that affects their relationship in the long run.
Meanwhile, when will we learn Cass thoughts on Deans new vampire buddy Benny? Soon. And lets just say they all wont likely be sharing beers any time soon. Hes wary of Benny from the get-go, and I think that he then is possibly a bit jealous too of the friendship or camaraderie that happens between Dean and Benny, he says. You know, Cas doesnt have a lot of other friends in Purgatory.

... It was purgatory to, which I am sure had something to do with it... unless there was another vampire moment I am forgetting.

Yeah, I think after seven seasons I'd love a season where the brothers weren't keeping some sort of secret from the other. They're brothers, they're family, enough of the manufactured drama to keep them at odds.

Really enjoyed the first episode, aside from Sam's flashbacks. Music is back! (Man in the wilderness is one of my favorite songs) Fun fact: Styx did a cover of locomotive breath.
Nice to see they have a focus for this season, but where's Cas!? Also interested to see where Dean's relationship with the vamp goes.
Looking forward to tonight.

Good episode. Kevin is still awesome, and his mom kicked ass. And that last scene...what happened to Cas?

Wow. Only episode 2 and I'm liking it a lot better than the last two seasons.
Sighs deeply.
Mama Tran was/is badass. And Cas... Too many feelings.
Sighs deeply.
She's okay. He should have married the first Ruby. But hey... Different strokes.
Christ, this thing with Cass makes me feel like I'm watching Casshern Sins what with all the FEELS.
