Season 3, Episode 1: The Magnificent Seven

I'm tired, Sam, and there's a light at the end of the tunnel."  "That's hell fire, Dean."
Season 3.  ::said in my best "Bob Singer" from The French Mistake tone of voice."  I've only seen most of Season 3 the one time through - a couple of other episodes, here and there, but mostly just the once.  I remember really liking it though, so let's see the second time around.

What I said then:

"Season 3!  Woot woot!  #Supernatural #oneseasonclosertocastiel"

"Dean with one year to live is kind of my favorite Dean ever.  Also, willing to bet he gets more than a year.  #Supernatural #Season3"

"I'm tired. There's a light at the end of the tunnel."  "That's hell fire, Dean. #Supernatural #Season3"

Thoughts the second time around:
  • Great use of Hell's Bells in The Road So Far
  • I kind of like the Season 3 title card
  • Dean in the wifebeater - hot
  • "Let me see your knife . . . so I can gouge my eyes out."
  • Bobby calling Dean out on eating a cheeseburger for breakfast and Dean responding with how he "ain't sweating the cholesterol" in light of his year to live
  • Pride says "piss-poor" - love that word
  • Having only seen a handful of Season 3 episodes multiple times, and with Ruby not being in any of them (as opposed to Season 4, which I have seen many more episodes much more frequently), it was weird to see Katie Cassidy in the role again.  She brought a badassness to the role that was lacking in GenPad's portrayal - made me think of them as two different characters, as opposed to simply two different actresses.
  • I forgot about Isaac drinking the Drain-o - oh my God, it was so disturbing to me both times.
  • I love how no nonsense Bobby was.  Sigh.
  • Annnnd . . . we'll never see Tamara again.
  • Dean's discussion with Sam at the end - "I couldn't live with you dead.  Couldn't do it."  Sigh.  That's so Dean.
