I tend to think that it was a combination of the fact that the writers still lurve Bobby, the Directing gig was a sweetner for Jensen and it gave Jared the time off the Js are so often heard agitating for.

I read a comment somewhere that they actually DID write this episode with Jensen in mind as director. If that's true, then again, I wish they'd used a Jensen-lite episode to focus on Sam, which seems a little more important than giving Jared a vacation, especially since at the time they filmed this episode Jared would have been relatively fresh off the three-month summer hiatus.

the Campbells weren’t the MacLeod’s usual foes (that dubious pleasure goes to some of my own ancestors) I don’t think they’re setting up some sort of ancient feud

The actor Gavin MacLeod played Captain Stubing on '70's cheesefest The Love Boat. I have absolutely no doubt this was why the writers chose the name MacLeod, and specifically, Gavin MacLeod, for Crowley's seafaring son. Because what could be more hilarious than a Love Boat reference?

Since you're of Scottish descent maybe you can tell me why a Scotsman would develop an English accent in hell??
