Previously on Supernatural: honestly, I just don't think the woman who plays Ellen is a good actress, as evidenced in the clips they used of her.
So, black stuff oozing from the walls, lights flickering, I would maybe call somebody at least, if not leave.
Hello pretty Metallicar. LMAO KATIE HOLMES. Ahh, Ellen tried to Sam Jo up but she's a Dean girl. Get it? Get the connection? HUH? And she has SKILLS. Skills that impress Dean.
STAY PUFT MARSHMALLOW MAN. GHOSTBUSTERS REFERENCE. DEAN WINS. You have to be pissed off to make ectoplasm?!
*eyeroll* hi Mary Jo. I kinda love Dean smacking her down.
She has Dean-like cardshark skills. Joy. I wish he'd just told Ellen she was there. Cheesy smile. Cute.
She's had it up to here with his crap? She throws herself at him, acts like a five year old, and then gets pissy when he treats her like one. Calling Dean out on being sexist?! 'Women can do the job fine, amateurs can't.' I. Love. Dean. He totally has the hots for Ellen, man. Dean's talking about his guilt over taking Sam away from Stanford! ...obliquely.
Mmm, hair, yummy.
I've noticed a trend on Supernatural where they tend to set up cases where people die once every few years and then all of a sudden a whole bunch die just as Dean and Sam show up. It's somewhat annoying. At least this one tried to leave. Though not move when an arm was reaching out of the vent.
LOL DEAN SLEEPING. That looks really comfortable. I love that the first thing Dean said when he woke up was 'where's Sam?' She didn't sleep? Why didn't she let Dean have the bed then?! Okay, that little moment when Dean realised the knife was Jo's dad's was gorgeous. 'Sorry, my mistake.' Guh. Leave him alone about his dad, man. We have a bit of a timeline for Dean's childhood now, though - his first shooting lessons at 6 or 7. Jensen's freckles are SO PRETTY. SHE USED THE F WORD AT DEAN. I'm not sure that hunting as a way to be close to her dead father who died on a hunt is the best idea, but it's going to get to Dean the way he's feeling right now. SAM'S DRAMATIC ENTRANCE!
Her boyfriend reported her missing around dawn? How did he know already? Did he live with her? Why didn't he hear her screaming?
I guess they couldn't afford Ash for the episode so they substituted a crappy Roadhouse shot.
Wait, Sam HAS a computer and he doesn't USE it?!?! We still have to have Ash as their research monkey instead?! Jensen looks hot in that colour.
LMAO Sam is so stoked about this. Kind of like when Dracula was on Buffy. Hey, do you think they already had this story in mind when they cast Alona as Jo?
I like the claustrophobic nature of this episode.
Well, of COURSE she was going to get kidnapped.
SMOKE ON THE WATER DIAL TONE. Win. I'm starting to get the feeling that Sam's getting reeeeeally used to telling Dean not to beat himself up over stuff.
Isn't Jo a little short to be a storm trooper?
Gosh, they look inconspicuous walking along with their EMF metal detector thing.
Jo used Dean's favourite curse.
I cannot see a thing in this rescue scene. I love that the other girl gets all comfortable in Sam's arms.
I love that Dean never pulls his punches when using people as bait. Michael in Something Wicked, Jo in this. He lets the baddies get up close and really personal with them so that he has a guaranteed shot. OMG THEY TRAPPED HIM IN HIS OWN LITTLE HELL HOLE. That's so very, very cool. Except for Jo's crappy closing line, wtf.
DEAN. STOLE. A CEMENT TRUCK. WITH ROCK MUSIC. Sam just called Dean a ho! Bitch.
Why does Sam have to sit in the back? Ellen's shorter. COLD AS ICE LOL. I still think Dean has a thing for Ellen.
Okay, seriously, what the fucking fuck. The writers totally came up with this John-getting-William-killed thing the night before the episode aired. It doesn't tally with the way Ellen's been treating Dean and Sam until now, or the way she greeted them when we first got to the Roadhouse. Besides, Dean and Sam have managed to look out for each other pretty well, they're decidedly a team, so there's no evidence that they're as...single-minded on a hunt as John. Thirdly, the fact that William died on a hunt with John doesn't necessarily mean it was all John's fault. Hunting's a dangerous gig, you could die any time, and William knew that when he got into it. Telling Dean was low, blaming Dean lower.
Jensen's really pretty though.
Jo vs. Sarah. Sarah was tough, she came with them on parts of the hunt, she was a love interest. She was infinitely better than Jo. Augh.

Have you noticed how beautifully shot the show is this season? Last year was pretty - this year is gorgeous. And I'm actually not talking about Jensen and Jared. ;)

You reviews are great. I totally agree with you!

This has been bothering me a lot as well and it was particularly obvious again in this ep Wth?
The smoke on the water ring tone was the best thing ever.

Thought the same exact thing!

YES. I'm so glad i wasn't the only one who noticed that. I was like "Oh... Dean and Jo... uninteresting. *eyes wander* WOW. Someone's getting friendly with Sammy..." Best. Ever.
Yeah. Jo is pretty much a bitchy, whiny girl reflection of Dean. A better ending would've been Jo gets killed and then Dean and Sammy wouldn't go back to the Roadhouse either. Oh... but then we wouldn't see Ash anymore... At least that ending would've made SENSE.

When I saw that Sam had a computer I definitely thought the same thing. Why use Ash as a research tool if he can do it himself?
Jo telling Dean she's had enough of his crap, going there in the first place, getting herself caught, being a card shark and well being there in general. Ugh. I just wanted her to die. And I still do.
I really don't mind Ellen. I do think she was very inconsistent in this episode compared to in the past. I have seen her in a few other shows and she does play the same stoic type character though, which might be why I'm used to her not showing a lot of emotion...
Also, the scene with Jo and Dean sharing their memories annoyed me to no end... WEll the way she almost forced Dean to share. I don't like them bonding and such.
But yeah, I also thought the whole John is responsible for William dying thing was tacked on. It's like "how can we create more angst, I know, let's have Sam and Dean's father be responsible for Jo's father's death!" The only good thing about it is that hopefully it keeps Jo and Ellen away for a good long while...
This comment got WAY longer than I wanted it to be....

I couldn't agree more and you can write it way better than me. :)
