Y'know, I was kind of generally annoyed at this episode for existing, but then the dog jumped onto Dean's bed, and I couldn't help but smile.

What.
The.
FUCK.
What the actual f*ck?!

Throughout this episode, I started off mad, then I was disappointed, then I didn't have the energy to be anything, and now I'm mad again. I couldn't even feel anything but annoyed at Dean's death because it was so unnecessary, and we didn't even SEE what killed him, and it was just an obvious way for the writers to force an emotional reaction from the viewers. Why the hell did they think we wanted to tune in for an extra week just to watch our characters die?

Y'know, if they had bothered to ask Jack to bring back Eileen and the other hunters, maybe Sam wouldn't be so alone.

So... Wait, what? Cas is around? And he never stopped by or...? WTF?

I'm just. I don't even know what to say about this. I... This was not a good final season, and this finale episode was just made to tug at the audience's emotions and nothing more. Sam got kind of a happy ending, though he clearly suffered over the loss of his brother and EVERYONE else he'd ever known. We didn't even get a cameo of Jack or Cas. It makes no sense why the other hunters weren't brought back. I don't know, maybe Chuck had returned them to a world that didn't exist anymore, so it wasn't possible to bring them back? I'm just...deeply disappointed but not even as much as I should be because Supernatural has been declining in quality for years. With each passing episode of this season, it became clearer and clearer that the ending wouldn't be well-paced and well-written like we deserved. It's not the worst season of this show or even the second or third worst. But it is one of the worst final seasons I've seen of a show that has lasted so long. Really, they should have just dropped the idea of Chuck as the big bad this season and just made this a collection of monster-of-the-weeks with a familiar face starring in each episode, building up to a final farewell to the Winchester brothers who happily and without regret sacrifice themselves for the greater good. And then Jack and Cas visit them in heaven, and maybe Jack (and perhaps Cas) continues hunting with the possibility of teaching the next generation of hunters. Or they rebuild heaven, creating more angels who will encourage free will and peace.
I'm honestly not even sad Supernatural is over. With writing like we've had for the past few seasons, it was only a matter of time. I just think we deserved better than what we got. The characters deserved better than what they got. I give this episode a 4/10 because the emotional ploys didn't work on me, leaving me bored and annoyed at this episode that served as a poor finale (I'm especially bitter that last episode gave us a rushed conclusion to the biggest plot of the entire show, but we got a full episode of two guys dying this episode). The season overall, I give a 5/10. Maybe a 6 if I'm feeling generous, but right now, I'm not...

This show needs to stop acting like Mary was everybody's best friend. She was a loner who admitted to closing herself off from her own family. She lived in a cabin and stayed in contact with very few people. I doubt in the 3 years she was back that she imprinted herself that well into the hunter community.

So Atheists get turned to Styrofoam. Huh. Someone should tell Jack that Cas already tried to play God, and it didn't exactly work out.

Did they really need to have such a long shot of the worms coming out of his face? Ugh.

So when Jack kills less than 5 people, he gets locked away for all eternity. But when everyone else goes astray, it's no big deal. So much for "family".
Okay, WTF? It was clear Jack just wanted things to go back to the way they were. They could have just talked things out with him, even if ut resulted in him needing to leave the bunker or wearing warding to limit his powers. Immediately locking him away when he showed that he still trusted them and wanted their guidance was just a cold excuse to get revenge.

And why did they think it would hold him? That box was designed to hold an archangel. Jack has already proven himself to be more powerful than that. My heart just goes out to Jack. The poor kid's had it rough since birth...

"Jack's not family."
There. He said it. He finally admitted it. If he's have thrown an "and Cas" in there, he would have been even more honest. To Dean, family just means "blood". Anyone not sharing his blood might get a tear or two but is otherwise disposable.

"That wasn't you? Writing?"
Wait... Amara can't tell when Chuck's influencing something? Chuck can write AMARA'S story, including her emotions?? So much for balance.

Just when I thought I couldn't be any more disgusted with Dean, he's thanking Jack for becoming a bomb just so he and Sammy can live "free".

Soo, I've been wanting to say this for a couple episodes now, but whatever happened with Lucifer? We saw him in the Empty, it looked like he was part of Billie's plan, and then...nothing.

Why did they really believe there simply wouldn't be a God? Someone HAS to be in charge. Someone has to keep the universe alive. The fact is, no one under Jack's level can create souls. That means once the humans of today all die, there won't be any others unless all the souls are reincarnated. And THAT would mean no heaven or hell because the souls would need to be set free in order to be reincarnated. Life, or at the very least, humanity, can not survive without a creator.

If everyone goes back to where they belong, then that would mean both Sam AND Dean would go back to Hell. Or at the very least, Dean would...

I almost forgot about Kaia. They only ever mention her when she's in the episode.
"Earth 2"? Really? That's what we're calling it? What is this, a comic book?
It looked like Chuck was giving a Ted Talk in front of those screens.
Did the writers just pull a "Sir, this is a Wendy's" joke?
"The failed spin-offs." Sorry, writers, but maybe if you had asked viewers if they wanted Bloodlines and Wayward Sisters instead of assuming we did, you wouldn't have wasted your time and money on them.

Completely and utterly forgot about Patience. The writers have such a bad habit of only mentioning characters when they're relevant to the plot.

I swear, I am going to punch these writers. So, Sam, Dean, and Mary all carved their initials in the table but no one invited Cas or Jack to do the same? So much for "we're family". Cas has been there for these boys longer and more faithfully than their mother, but he still gets treated like a pet in the background.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. After all these YEARS, Cas and Jody have NEVER met? That can't be right. Surely not. What about when everyone was gathered to do other world shenanigans? Surely then, right? Are you telling me these boys don't interact with Jody off-screen?

"What is that, some kind of BS male chivalry thing?" ...What? I...I can't even wrap my mind around how stupid that line was. What's with writers thinking the only way to empower a female character is by having them put down the male characters? Jody's never made comments like that before, and she's too much of a detective to jump to conclusions like that.

The whole plan with Billie and The Empty and whatnot is turning out to be rather underwhelming. This entire final season is, but I've already said that enough times...

How...did Dean get there so quickly? Were Sam and Jack just staring in awe for half an hour till he showed up?

Dean with the dog was cute, but let's be honest, who didn't see that coming?

So, we have both Lucifer and Michael back in the picture. I'm thinking each uses their perfect vessel to team up against God?

Wow. How convenient that Lucifer managed to find and capture a reaper. After we had been told that there are no more reapers. Sigh

So, Lucifer shows up for five minutes and then gets killed with his only purpose in the entire episode being to make a reaper who shouldn't exist become Death, kill said reaper, and keep the book open for the boys to later read. Second sigh

So, only AFTER Castiel and Jack sacrifice themselves do Sam and Dean carve their names into the table? Eyeroll

Um. What? So, what the hell is the final episode going to be about?? What, is it just going to be some reboot or spinoff setup or something? Even if this were the finale, it still wouldn't have been satisfying. This was kind of rushed and so simplistic that it should have been at least two episodes so that it didn't feel absurdly easy and lacking in weight to finally beat Chuck. But then again, Supernatural has always had a history of underwhelmingly and anticlimactically ending big baddies...

Are these writers serious? They put J.J.'s life on the line just to stir up more of this love triangle drama. How utterly disrespectful to the character.

"You think that's what I'm doing? Closing myself off to possibilities because I'm waiting for a life with J.J.?"
Except he's not. Has he--and the writers--forgotten about Maeve? And that celebrity woman he kissed in the pool? Yeah, he liked J.J. There's no question about that. But he certainly hasn't been avoiding relationships because of her. He only closed himself off after Maeve's death. If anything, he is closing himself off from J.J. because of Maeve and because of J.J.'s family.

"I don't know how to be in this world if I'm not wishing for a future that's with her."
Okay, stop this crap. This is really how you're going to write the final season? Really? I can accept that Reid has feelings for J.J., but by no means does his life revolve around her. I can't even imagine Reid daydreaming about a future with J.J. I can see him fantasizing about Maeve but not J.J. These writers need to pull this ship back. They had a chance at it in season 1 and tossed it out the window. Now that both J.J. and Reid have moved on with their lives, the writers can't pull this out of nowhere and try to say they're dependent on each other. If Will had died, say, 2 seasons ago or back when he was in that hostage situation, then it'd be a different story. But J.J. is over here confessing to Reid while her husband and children are in route to visit her after she almost died. That's just feels disgusting...

Okay. Here we go. I can already tell this is going to be a show that I either am so disinterested in that I stop watching halfway through the season or that I walk away saying it was decent or maybe even "okay". I doubt I'm going to fall in love with it. Now, having such moderately low expectations, I'm hoping this show will pleasant surprise me by exceeding them. People give this show a lot of praise, so here's hoping I will be able to as well.

Ah, the classic "I need to tell you truth about everything" and then dies before being able to character. Gotta love this trope appearing in every sci-fi, fantasy, drama, and suspense show ever made.
Oh, sh*t. She didn't die? Consider me corrected then.

That cop boss is suspicious. Only makes it more suspicious that the show is giving him so much attention when we don't even know his name. I'm calling it now. He's going to be important in the future.

How the hell did this guy run out of the woods and across the street before the other guy could go from his mailbox to his house?

So, Harold Krenshaw is a Blutbad? Noted.

WTH? I don't know about the laws in whatever state this takes place in, but where I''m from, and just in general, you cannot shoot a suspect (especially not several times with intent to kill) who is running away from you when they don't even have a weapon. This is the same guy who JUST said "I wanna keep my job." They didn't even have any proof that the girl was in there! Imagine if the other wolf guy had hummed that song instead. They would've killed an innocent blutbad.

Okay, that was much better than I was expecting. I heard that the show gets better after season 1, so if this season is already off to a strong start, I wonder what's in store. Will this show be more like Supernatural or like Lucifer (minus the comedy and...y'know...the Devil)? I'm hoping it leans more toward Supernatural since the police aspect of Lucifer has always been the worst part of the show. Actually, I think this show might end up being like Fringe but with fantasy instead of sci-fi. That would be pretty all right in my book. Hopefully the monsters don't get stale. I don't want every 5th episode to be yet another werewolf case. Good start overall. 8/10. Would've rated higher if it weren't for a few overused tropes and some awkward monster acting (I laughed out loud at the way Harold Krenshaw ran after turning full blutbad)...

Becky, huh? I wondered in past seasons if she'd return, but I didn't even consider her for this season. They really are pulling out all the stops. Still waiting to see Ellen, Jo, and Ash, though. Oh! And maybe Bella from season 1.

Man, this is the only way we see Benny? Well, I guess something's better than nothing.

Sam...isn't vegetarian and has never been opposed to eating it. Are the writers really trying to retcon their characters in the last season?

"They get to sit around and talk. That's what people like most anyways." So, the writers KNOW this and still bothered to put this typical monster-of-the-week episode right after everything that happened last episode?

"He's got a full ride to IU." IU as in...Indiana University? Didn't know that was impressive. :T

Did Veronica even have braces? I never saw anything.

What's with that Criminal Minds-esque editing after they showed the father washing blood off his hands?

I want to punch these writers in the face. They have Becky voice every complaint we've had for YEARS. And instead of fixing it, they just make fun of it.

They didn't have to kill the kid. They've let monsters with a conscience go before (and even befriended them!). They could've trained the kid to fight his urges and perhaps become a hunter. But no, they're just looking for someone to take their anger out on. Just like with Jack. It's disgusting.

WTF, Chuck? Honestly, WTF?

As someone else said, the Chuck parts were the best parts of the episode. The case was boring, rushed, and kinda predictable...
