User Reviews

Death makes great entertainment

An awesome episode. I enjoyed every moment of it, and really loved the insightful glimpses we get in all the characters, especially Dean. We get to see him be his usual macho self with some added loathing to boot. I kind of expected something to happen to the other however. They really set it up that way. The thing that bothered me the most is that whenever one of the Winchesters gets healed it is an instantaneous thing. I would find this unbelievable show a bit more believable if the characters weren't always almost dying and then all of the sudden, they are in perfect health. My one qualm but on the whole this was an awesome episode for an awesome show.
