I can't believe that our local CW station is preempting the Supernatural season finale for a Arena Football game. So far, it doesn't look like they are going to reschedule it. Guess I'll have to figure out some way to download it.

They show whole episodes on the CW site after they are aired.

Have to say I have mixed feelings on those 2-hours. I really didn't like the way Dean handled Lisa and Ben, and although I liked seeing Rafael blown to bits, I'm not sure about Crowley's escape and Cas becoming the new God. It was also a bit strange to see nearly the entire final hour take place in Sam's head.
On a positive note, Cas having "plans for Crowley" sounds ominous, and Crowley being alive means more Mark Sheppard, which is never a bad thing. But all-in-all, that finale left me feeling largely unfulfilled, like it's part 2 of a 3 parter, instead of a season finale. Season 7 should be interesting though. Some changed dynamics and a lot of issues left to deal with, from Sam remembering the pit to Dean beating himself up endlessly over Lisa and Ben (and Cas), to seeing how the brothers deal with Cas (and Crowley). I guess, though, I expected to be blown away a little bit more. |

I was underwhelmed by the finale, as well. Dark/all-powerful Cas just doesn't seem to fit. The key, I think, is Sam, and what knowledge he retained from the pit (aside from the obvious misery/suffering part). And, when does the original "God" show up? I'm thinking he's going to be a bit miffed about another creature trying to lay claim to the "all-powerful" title. I like that Crowley survived, and what he may bring to the table. A bit disappointed in the finale, but the show is still better than most others..... |

Isn't a season finale supposed to have some cliffhanger elements to it though? Part 2 of a 3 parter seems to fit that mold. I know what you are saying about the finale though. It would have been pretty sweet to see Cas and Rafael have a badass fight but how easily he was destroyed shows just how much power is in Cas. We also have no way of knowing how messed up Sam is going to be now that he remembers hell. I'd have liked more as well but I agree that it does set up some interesting plot lines for the next season.

Oh, cliffhangers are great, I just didn't feel like much of anything was resolved. They left a lot of questions and gave basically zero answers.
I liked the HP Lovecraft tie-in, too. Forgot to mention that. I wasn't sure I liked them turning the dragon sword lady from Bobby's past into a...whatever she was, though. That was a Chekov's Gun that didn't quite work for me. All in all, it just felt like it was lacking the 'oh shit' moments of past finales. |

I have avoided this thread like the plague. I'm halfway through season 6. The last episode watched is where the dragon guys released Mother (?) from Purgatory. Really liking this season so far. No soul Sam was a bad mofo.

I don't think there's anything new in this, but it was the comic-con trailer.

Watched it since the beginning. A fine race horse that should have been put down 2 seasons ago IMHO.

I don't think they've had a bad season yet. And I'd say seasons 5 and 6 stand amongst the best of the bunch.
