9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[colls]

DOGGIE DEANLITTLE — While investigating two bizarre murders, Sam and Dean realize there is an eyewitness to both gruesome deaths – a German Sheppard. Anxious to find out if they are dealing with a witch, a skinwalker or other supernatural monster, the guys look up a spell that could let Dean “communicate” with the dog. Unfortunately, the spell comes with side effects that no one saw coming."

I AM EXCITE

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

just starting. OK I think that was the BEST 'previously' EVERRRRR. I kind of want to watch it over and over.

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

Hahaha, you and I apparently have opposite views of "previously"s - I generally dislike them in the later seasons (because they're trying to squeeze too much in) - and this one was like the worst of the worst for me. :|

Do you enjoy all the harkening back to previous eps? Because I do enjoy the clips they include, and could see how that might be appealing (still not my cuppa, but I understand it).

oh hi! I guess I missed the notification of this comment? Sorry for the delay!

Yes, no usually I hate 'previously on' but the bits they showed in this one were some of the more inspired moments of zaniness that makes me keep watching this show. I feel like generally my attitude toward show has changed over time. And in hindsight, after the end of season 5, it's all just a mushy grey blur except for the extremely silly eps. So I guess instead of wanting it to be all that it could be, I just accept it for what it is, and stick around for the extremely childish humor? Except for sometimes the humor is less childish and more just...uh, something else ha.

LOL HIPPIES sigh. Evil PETA? eh. The scent of patchouli and depression? Really Dean?

lol though I am enjoying the way the vegans are echoing Dean's choices of epithets.

this bad guy's crazier than a SACK OF CATS. ughhhh DON'T EAT THE KITTEHS THO

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[timetobegin]

so many stereotypes in this episode

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[kate]

This. Ouch.

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

YAY Kevin!! What, he's like the librarian of the MoL now?

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

I wonder though, is this phonetic Inuit?

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

No see, Dean has ALWAYS had the urge to sniff butts. So it's hard to tell.

also: OMFG that must have been the GREATEST day at work for Jensen. He should have taken notes from Jared though, about how to do puppy eyes.

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

but why do all the animals come from New York?

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

poor Jared, all he can do is react to Jensen.

Also, this show is getting ridiculous. And also now I'm starting to CRY OMG SHUT UP DON'T LISTEN TO THE PUPPIES BEGGING TO BE LET OUT OF PUPPY JAILLLLLL. GODDDDD DAMMIT.

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

Yay they got sprung! If only they all got loving homes for all times now. God, listening to puppies is sad.

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

ok NOW does Sam figure out he's deus ex machina-ed?

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

uh oh. this is the part of the show where we get:

tastes like chicken

you are what you eat

sigh

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

Annnnddd the refrain of Dean not wanting to--but having to--trust Ezekiel, of people being possessed and out of control, continues. Really, Sam? Gonna buy this again? It's been five weeks of weirdness, and now you magically healed from a neck wound. :/

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[timetobegin]

right?? come on. sam is basically a detective!

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

Right? I mean, he used to practically be a genius. Maybe he doesn't want to know???

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[timetobegin]

THIS EPISODE WAS SO AWKWARD

whyyyyyyyy.

the little bit of funny didn't outweigh the WHY. lol

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[laisserais]

WHY show? Whyyyy

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[timetobegin]

:( not the best episode ever.

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[colls]

Poor Kevin with his hangover. I like that they imply Kevin is around even if they can't have him in the episode (I know with other shows there's a "thing" about number of episodes, etc.)

I guess I'm in the minority, because I enjoyed the episode and laughed a quite a few moments.
I thought the stereotypes were OTT intentional and Dean's always been opinionated about such things. I'm not saying I personally agree, only that I'm on board with Dean behaving that way as it's kind of how I'd expect him to behave.
*shrugs*

Re: 9.05 - Dog Dean Afternoon

[timetobegin]

aww sorry to be all negative.
I do think its in character for dean, you're right about that
