Season 4, Episode 12: Criss Angel is a Douchebag

"I don't want to be doing this when I'm an old man."

This is a relatively forgettable episode - I think the best part of it is the title.  Although it is the episode that sends Sam back to Ruby - we don't know what they're doing yet, not about the demon's blood at least, but we know they're doing something that Sam doesn't want Dean to know about.  But the rest of this one is forgettable.

What I said then:

"The name of this episode of #Supernatural is "Criss Angel is a Douche Bag."  As if I needed another reason to love this show. #Season4."

Some thoughts this time around:

• We don't see the Impala at all in this episode.
• "Douche bag" is said seven times in this episode.
• I love Dean's face when he goes to see Chief.  "You ain't been had, 'til you've been had by the Chief."
• I wish we got to see more seals being broken.  They tell us 34 seals had been broken as of the time of this episode and we only got to see what, like 3 of them?  How do they even know how many were broken?
• I love Dean being so impressed by the magic.  "That was amazing.  That was freakin' amazing!"
• "He slipped me."  "He's a 60-year-old."  "He's a magician!"
• Poor Jay.  It's noble that he killed his best friend to save Sam and Dean (and whoever else he would have killed) but to be left with no one later in life . . . so sad.
• The closing credit music - awful.
