SPN 5.08 Changing Channels

[thegrrrl2002]

I have to admit this up front: Richard Speight Jr is hot like a hot hot thing. Seriously. This guy pushes all my buttons. He's talented, funny, and awfully cute with the dimples and the smirking. So I knew I was going to love this ep, and I did. The Gabriel reveal still has me bubbling over with joy. (And the continuity with "Mystery Spot". Awesome stuff!

Favorite bits:

The title sequence. That will never not be funny. I giggled like a loon during it. The tandem bike! Bumping into each other in the dark! You just know they had a ball filming it.

Dean being all into "Dr. Sexy". The show, and the guy. All starstruck. And knowing that Dr. Sexy wears cowboy boots. Oh, Dean, you are such a fangirl. Somebody has a little mancrush, hmmm?

Sam's scrunchy little face of WTF when they're in the hospital. Aw!

Sunglasses at night. ::snorts:: Very well done.

Castiel trying to save the day. Just seeing him on the set of that ridiculous japanese game show is hilarious. And yet, hot. It's the way he walks in that trench coat. I could watch an entire ep that consisted of him striding purposely toward the camera with in that coat.

Sam as Kitt. Again - awesome. Dean, what exactly were you doing in his trunk?

Dean being all worried about Castiel made my heart go all squishy. Oh, Dean.

I loved them capturing Gabriel. Loved Gabriel just wanting to get the apocalypse over and done with. I love that he ran away rather than deal with the squabbling. I loved how human he sounded. And I loved Dean's refusal to accept his "destiny", and his parting words to Gabriel. It was all so fabulous and I'm full of flail and love and I need to watch a few thousand more times!
