Call in the Usual Hot Guys :)

astri13Just picture me boogying to "Back in Black" all through this review. :)
Yeeeeees, my little show is back. And maybe this episode profits from coming after the craptastic impostor of a Supernatural episode (CIOASE) we got last week so everything would be shiny and sparkly. But I don`t care, this one felt like old times. A good case-y standalone.
And as far as some suspension of disbelief goes, see above after last week`s CIOASE I`m more than happy to put my fingers in my ears and sing "Lalalala" through some parts. *g*
First a word of dismay though: everybody is squeeing over the "Previously`s" and my clip didn`t have them. It started on the "Now". *sniff*
Good stuff:
Synchronity in motion, honestly Sam channelled Snarky!Dean, even saying "Awesome" in that Deanish tone; both calling the lawyer "Matlock"; their little codes and both figuring out it was an anagram. Yay.
Dean looked utterly, utterly bored to be chained to a chair on murder charges. He was working the case the entire time when his poor lawyer tried to get through to him. Hee.
And Sammy won`t turn on his brother ever. Because his brother is hismost beloved little cuddly bear whom he can`t possibly sleep without whole world.
Sam is such a smooth liar, all sincere puppy dog eyes and plausible story. And no, I didn`t believe a word of it. But that`s only because I`m a suspicious and paranoid person and as good as he was lying, the whole story screamed bull to me. :)
Also, did him and Dean come up with the exact same story? Because LB said they matched?
Best confession scene ever. OMG, the one million people outside on the peanut gallery cracked me up because it was like Dean was doing stand-up and he had them in the palms of his hand. They laughed at every freaking joke. *g*
And why were they all there? Did somebody yell all through the precinct: "Come quick, we`re gonna video-tape the blindingly hot guy" ? ;)
And Dean being slammed into walls (not thrown, slammed) will never be not hot. Ähem.
Oh, and didn`t it look like BadCop Pete was about five seconds away from enacting some of the more raunchy prison movies there with him? Honestly he had the same look DadDemon had in DT when he had Dean pinned against the wall. Maybe it`s an automatic response.I know I would molest the boy if I had him pinned against a wall.
Oh, it`s the old "shoot the prisoner in the woods" tactics. Yeah Jason, everybody will believe that after you snatched him without paperwork and didn`t answer dispatch. But: see above. No CIOASE.
And the looks between them: "Shall I get him?" "No, no, wait." "Wrings hands." :-D
I liked the twist with the death omen. And yeah, I called Jason Gedrick (I would make a "he got old" joke here but then I remember when he was younger so I`m not gonna go there *cough*) on being the bad guy. Who else would it be?
Linda Blair? I liked her, didn`t find the actress as strong as Jessica Steen but she was sympathetic and had a nice rapport with Sam/the boys.
Also, the wife of Anthony Giles (Ha ha, that was a good one, writers) who was maybe 20 years old? She was terribly familiar, where the heck do I know her from?
And Dean looked so blindingly hot in his suit there in the flashback but his interrogation style blew. :)
The logistics with the whole St.Louis case were a bit weird. I would have guessed that "Dean Winchester, deceased" aka the shapeshifter might have turned up some weird results upon autopsy. But still why do they think now that this guy was not the real deal. Because they have a Dean?
At least their current charges were clear even though that normal life might seem more far away than ever for either one. Oh, and Sam you big loveable doofus at the end when she said she`d let them walk. Uhm, did you not hear how she just explained that Dean is still pinged as the St.Louis killer? If she did NOT let you walk, you can look forward to conjugal visits at best. *headsmack*
The pea-soup reference didn`t bother me so much. Come on, they never thrived on subtlety. :)
You know, this featured the guest characters pretty heavily, maybe not as much as last week but still, yet somehow I didn`t feel cheated out of my show so it`s possible writers. This though showed me that the whole Roadhouse thing "where every demon knows your name" is not needed.
Oh, and I think nobody would guess my favorite line from the episode: "This Dean-kid is like a gift." Hahahaha, I`ve been preaching this since day one.
Preview for next week? Hell, I`m ready to rumble for this one since I read the most awesome sides. And supernatural women just can`t keep their grubby mitts off our Dean, can they? Kate the vampire smooshed him. Tessa the Reaper looked like she wanted to and now this. :)
And the CD looked ready for some action too.
Okay, Sam got perved on by the WIW but that was her modus operandi. And Meg okay.
Heck, they`re both demon magnets. :)
Am somewhat disappointed about the stupid ratings. Not that I think the show is in any danger. Honestly anything else they`d put there would get ripped to shreds even more. But this poor little show deserves so moch more exposure. While GA and CSI have 20 Mio viewers. Why god, why? I get a bit of vengeful glee when I think about how GA is doing in Germany. Can you say flop with a capital F, barely 1 Mio viewers. When SPN starts on the same network next year and pulls in the average ratings of a "Buffy" or "Charmed", they can so beat this thing. HA.
