I was doing a count for myself of how many really good episodes came out of this season and I think I got about four myself. There was "The End" (4), of course, possibly one of the best episodes of this entire series. Then there was that agonizing five-episode stretch of totally disposable stupidity until we got to "Abandon All Hope" (10). Followed by two months of hiatus. We finally got another good one with "The Song Remains the Same" (13). Then another six weeks of hiatus. There wasn't much to get excited about until "Point of No Return" (18)...and that was pretty much it, IMO. So yeah, four episodes.
Of course, 5:19 DID have the Friskies commercial.
Am I going to write something off of 5:22? I don't see it happening. I loved the montages and Sam and Dean watching the stars but...that kind of stuff pretty much is fanfic to begin with, as far as I'm concerned (in fact, I consider the bit about Sam's army men to be wholly lifted from big_pink's Fire In The Hole.) Nothing in that episode really lit my fire. Not like "The End." That was just the ne plus ultra. Daaamn.
