Almost forgot to vote today... darn work getting in the way (Thursday's are long and busy).

 

And okay, I'll stop picking on "Live Free.." for a while, although I really do have several bones to pick with that episode which for me somehow managed to make Dean look like both a badass and an idiot at the same time.

The good thing about All Dogs was the way the walked BadAss away from the car, and that it was easy to vote off. Sorry Lucky.

There are parts of Let it Bleed I really like, but my problem is I haven't rewatched 6 and I didn't watched it live.  Some eps I missed and others I don't remember at all.  So I only will be saving those that stuck out. 

 

I think the problem with season 6 is they tried to do too much, and they couldn't pull off the ideas.  If it had had a bit more focus, I think it could have been really outstanding.  I don't think Gamble was bad, just really inexperienced and stuck in group think.  I think the Campbell family addition could have been awesome but it fell short and I loved Lisa and Ben.

 

Plus she had the hard time overcoming the followers that thought Krikpe was the best.  I came in later and never saw him as the best and felt that really they had equal good and bad but that is a discussion better left for another thread.

And okay, I'll stop picking on "Live Free.." for a while, although I really do have several bones to pick with that episode which for me somehow managed to make Dean look like both a badass and an idiot at the same time.

the opening and the moment with Lisa & Ben get me.  I get how stupid it was for Dean to go to them, but for some reason I like it more than I hate it.  But I can see your point, I just found myself watching parts of it over and over again.

I find it difficult to give pluses to any Season 6 ep, given that it was my least favourite, but I went with Weekend at Bobby's because it was a decent ep that could have fit in on any other season.

So Unforgiven is quickly shuffled off the survival games' mortal coil. It had some necessary part; Sam realized that Death was right (ya think?) and to not scratch the wall. I supposed both Winchesters are pig headed enough that they occasionally need to burn their hand rather than not touch the hot stove simply because they were told not too. But the season needed to wrap up the Soulless Sam arc a bot and showing how awful Sam was (and his apparent John-like predilection for using people as bait) provided some grist for the angst mill. Sam being a hound dog with women seemed kinda judgey. I did like Dean stating the Hunter's rule of not going to the same place twice. But ... It needed to go IMO because it didn't develop the characters or move the plot FORWARD. So meh.

Mannequin 3: The Reckoning

 

Someone that loved “Mannequin 3: The Reckoning” eulogize it.  I don’t even remember it so it was a easy kill for me.

Edited November 15, 2014 by 7kstar

No love for Mannequin 3: The Reckoning, here. But I will say that I did enjoy Dean and Lisa discussing what they wanted from each other and if this had been the end of Lisa and Ben, I would have been cool with it. I always felt like Dean liked the idea of Lisa and Ben more than the reality and this was a good way to wrap it up, IMO. But, they went and screwed it up later, so meh. Plus, the actual case of the week was not only boring, but poorly executed to boot. Sigh.

 

 

Frontierland -- (I love the premise, but the actual execution kind of disappointed me!)

 

So much this. I enjoy the episode enough, but best of the season...not for me. I really wish the episode was more than a bunch of jokey clichés. It was such a perfect opportunity for the show--since I think Supernatural is really just a western wearing horror/sci fi disguise--but, I feel like they blew it in the end.

I never saw the ep, that was the one I haven't seen and I liked Lisa and Ben.    My problem is I don't know how I would feel about it now.  I just don't have time to do a watch and I doubt I would buy the entire season, but some eps stick out.

That is the entire problem with the Gamble years, she had some really interesting and challenging ideas but the execution creates more problems than it solves.  But I have to vote on what I like the most from that season and Frontierland sticks out more than the others. 

 

Plus it is so funny that the guy that can ride a horse isn't allowed to do it.  I also think it is cool to hear how Jensen learned how to do a quick draw and the issues that actors had to deal with when they did so many westerns so long ago.    For me this is why Fanfiction was created to try to fix some of the weak spots of the show you love.

Well I'll just say now that I love every silly wonderful moment of Frontierland. IMO it moved the plot forward. It was damn funny and clever. But Dean letting his geek flag fly high and proud makes me happier than a pig in mud. It was so beautiful to see Dean be happy for 5 freaking minutes. And yes on the shallow end, Dean in the duster and stetson. Boy howdy mother may I!

Also, Posse Magnet will never not be funny to me.

[AwesomO4000]

What I remember most about "Mannequin 3: The Reckoning" is the beginning and the end. In the beginning conversation, Dean got to have his say about his concerns and be the one to be the voice of reason. (And I liked his little "well, lucky for you, I'm a doctor.") Then at the end, when Dean was unsure and shaken, Sam picked up the slack and became the voice of reason and hope. I loved Sam's heartfelt "thank you" to Dean and his sincere attempt to let Dean know that he would have his back too. These scenes showed how the brothers truly started complimenting each other (in the compensating for each other's weaknesses way) during this time of the show, each trying to be there for the other. And at the same time, they were also on the same page - unlike season 5 where despite some attempts at this, they were not communicating their true feelings and were talking past each other. With this episode, it was the start of their sincere attempts to communicate - not just assume the other would know how they felt: Dean with his insistence in the beginning that no, he wasn't going to let Sam hurt himself with his guilt, and he was owning that, and Sam at the end with making it a point to thank Dean, not just assume Dean would know, and to let Dean know that he believed in what they did, even with the occasional hunt that didn't work out, and that he had Dean's back. Scenes like those really remind me why I hated the first half of season 8 so very much.

 

It's just too bad that the rest of the episode didn't compliment these two bookend scenes...

 

In other news, okay.. reprieve over. To steal from Calliope - I can't even with this episode...

Excellent point, AwesomeO4000, about the bookend scenes in Mannequin 3.  I remember Dean describing the pills as "effective", and that was the first time i realized that he's taking in more than alcohol.

I'm having a surprisingly hard time with Season 6!  There's almost one good thing in just about every episode (like AwesomeO pointed out about Mannequin 3). I won't vote down Exile on Main Street because the Bob Seger montage was f*cking pefect. While I HATED the mindwipe, I really liked the 'Taken' scene from the start of Let It Bleed. And Jensen Ackles channels Liam Nelson BadAss pretty well. Arggggg.

Most likely enough time has gone by that if I rewatched this season some of my dislikes would change, but I have always found a gem in every ep even if it is just plain awful.  It's why I'm still here for the really good ones.  I don't have time for a re-watch nor do I own this season, so I'll just vote for the strong ones I remember.  I liked Dean trying to pull the sword out of the stone, so I'll let someone else kill Like a Virgin.

I'll go ahead and take it out.  I don't hate it, but I remember when I heard about it, I thought I must have misunderstood.  Dragons on Supernatural?  Frankly, the idea seemed ludicrous.  Regardless, I give the episode a solid "meh".

This is a more challenging round than I would have guessed because of several terrific stand alone episodes and even episodes that I loathe have some really great acting moments.

 

DementedDaisy, I legit Lol'd at your "solid meh".  That sort of sums up s6 for me right up until Let it Bleed which shoved it into active loathing for me because of the complete character assassination of Dean Winchester.

Family Matters. For me, the highlight of the episode was Alpha vamp Rick Worthy. He has the gravitas to play ancient. And to threaten with a smile. He did an excellent vampiric Hannible Lector.

That would've been cool, but then again, I don't know if I like the idea of anyone else but Dean having killed him for him to end up in Purgatory, so there's that. Now Dean meeting up with that vampire that turned him - yes... or even better: Gordon! Oh, that would've been awesome.

Man so many missed opportunities with Dean in Purgatory. What a wasted storyline. He could have met Gordon, the vampire that turned him, Madison, Lenore, Amy, the list goes on and on.  How cool would it have been for Cas to have been hunted by Gordon to get to Dean??

 

Gah.

You know, if I were the paranoid type, I would think you all are doing this to me on purpose.  ;-)  I will, once again, swing the axe and kill And Then There Were None.  I would have preferred a better send off for Rufus myself.  Not much else to say about the episode.

Whoops, cross posting.  This is what I get for letting myself be interrupted in the middle of a post for an hour or so.  I will re-vote, but still feel like I should keep my eulogy for And Then There Were None:

 

I have not come here to praise "And Then There Were None", but to bury it.  As well as Rufus, Gwen and Grampa Samuel.  Damn, I think my main problem with this ep in hindsight is that if they were going to kill off so many re-occurring characters in one go, it should have been more meaningful and connected  to the season arc.  At the end of the day, their deaths didn't seem to matter.  I don't exactly remember my initial impressions when this ep aired, but I'm pretty sure I thought it was surprisingly boring.

I will happily kill Let it Bleed. I loathe this episode. I loathe it for Dean doing something that I just don't believe he would do and they didn't sell me on why he did it and it made him into an asshole for no good reason.

[Blue Castle]

(I hope it's okay to just jump in and play, and I hope I'm playing properly. I only watched season 6 for the first time about 2 weeks ago!)  This was a weird season. It had a lot of good ideas but almost none of them were fully executed (the Campbells!).  I disliked the first half of season 6, but I liked a lot of the "Castiel goes dark with the best of intentions" stuff and the "Sam dealing with his literal tortured soul" stuff in the second half.  I also really liked "Like a Virgin"--I'm bummed it's been voted out already because I think I was almost as happy as Dean was to finally have Sammy back (and I always enjoy happyDean as well as sillyDean, so I also loved the slapstick with sword in the stone).  Also, the Winchester hug in "Like a Virgin" made up for the crappy reunion we got in "Exile on Main Street."

All good points about "Like A Virgin." I even liked the introduction of Eleanor. I just wish the rest of the episode had been stronger. It's hard for me with season 6 though, because I actually liked quite a bit of the second half of the season. But I agree with you that "Like A Virgin" did have some great stuff in it.

 

And welcome to our little game.

And welcome to our little game.

 

Thanks!  And I forgot about Eleanor Visyak--yeah, she was great.  It made me sad at the end of the season when she became "Yet Another Recurring Female Character Who's Killed Way Too Early."

[DittyDotDot]

Welcome Blue Castle, as always, the more the merrier, IMO!

 

I won't get too choked up about Like A Virgin here since I'm not too far off from watching it on the rewatch and will likely have bunches to bore y'all with in the episode thread. Like so much of S6, it has it's good and bad. Best part to me was Jethro Tull's New Day Yesterday. Alright, yes, there's a hug that, occasionally, makes me grin so hard my face starts cramping. Oh bite me, I said occasionally. It's not like I'm gonna start feeling my feelings all the damn time now, sheesh! Hee!

ETA: Just realized I'm a complete moron and should have been eulogizing Let It Bleed. Sorry, can't do that, not a fav of mine. I will say that Dean was all sorts of bad ass in this episode, that was at least fun to watch. Otherwise, meh. I'm gonna need to come up with another word for meh, S6 is killing me with my repetitiveness.

So let me first empathize with catrox14 for her hatred of Let It Bleed. I totally hate the mindwipe.  OTOH, I kinda loved the episode while simultaneously bemoaning some of the choices. What Let It Bleed did was: 1) Cement forever (IMO) that Dean is the BadAss of BadAsses.  He's the Liam Neilson of Supernatural.  You don't f*ck with this guy. EVER.  If I have to pick one non-superpowered hero to take with me into a fight? It'd be Dean Freakin' Winchester. 2) Sam still had faith in Castiel. I LOVE THAT ABOUT SAM.  3) Sebastian is the most fabulous Benedict Arnold and should have stayed permanently on Team Free Will just for the sass, 4) Crowley is a master planner -- as Meg says, he's ALWAYS the problem, and 5) UNFORTUNATELY (as I don't like this but get it) -- sealed the door shut on Dean and an apple pie life.  This last one I kinda hate but also understand that both Sam and Dean had to comes to terms with this concept.  This is Dean's final nail in the coffin on "normal" IMO. And for that, Let It Bleed did it's job.  And yes... the mindwipe of HORRIBLE is never going to be okay in my book.

 

Onto voting.  I will not kill Caged Heat. I love Megstiel far too much.

Thanks SueB. I totally agree with you about all the Badassery of Dean Winchester. I think that's probably why I'm so bitter about the mindwipe.  It just makes Dean look so utterly selfish and I don't think he is. And I don't think the show really though through that him doing the mindwipe would be so badly received. I mean I know it was shady and the show acknowledged that it was shady but it just hurts me so much.  :( to make that an answer to getting Lisa and Ben off the show. :( which I think needed to happen but not that way.
