...Some of them positive. Some of them negative. *shrug*



Well, first off:

I LOVE THE NEW OPENING Supernatural BIT.

It seriously was awesome, and I think it might replace Season 2's title sequence as my favorite. *gaspeth* I've been waiting, what, 3 seasons for one I like better. lol

The opening montage bit made me happy. I had goosebumps the whole time I watched it, and I wanted to cry when we had to see everything all over again. But it was amazing and I thought that it really worked to bring us into this new season.

Dean's new life? I love how well he got on with Lisa. I love that he managed to somehow turn into 'Joe normal' and look almost happy doing it. I am still upset that he did not use his baby anymore, replaced her with that truck. Then again, my anger could just be coming from the fact that a jerk spoiled me about that weeks ago and I still hadn't come to terms with it. (I try to remain as spoiler-free as possible, thanks).

Him getting the waitress' phone number and the way his buddy reacted was priceless. I thought it was rather nice seeing him rip the receipt up, just having them show us that he would never do something like that. (We already knew that, he's Dean and he does have a heart. But it's always nice to see).

I love that he helps make breakfast and that he shows Ben how to work on cars and stuff (I think that was what I saw, anyways).

But the hair? Me and my bestie just wanted to push our hands through it and fix it, because it was like watching "It's a Terrible Life" all over again, just without the freaky health-food fetish and ties.

YED coming back: *iz ded from guh* That made me incredibly happy. YED was, and will always be, my favorite villain from Supernatural. He's the one that started it all and everything he did led up to everything else. When I saw Fredrick Lehne's name in the credits I jumped up and down and bestie thought I was crazier than usual. It was too bad he was a hallucination, but making him Dean's worst nightmare was a smart choice on the writer's part. Because it makes the most sense in my opinion. That's the demon that killed his mom, then his Dad, and then even his Sammy. This demon took everything from him, of course that would be a nightmare.

I was told in advance that Sam's personality was different this season. He's supposed to be colder, care less. No more puppy dog eyes and heart made of gold. And I guess it makes sense considering he's now been to Hell himself (and Dean didn't come back all that great either, was actually a lot like Sam is now back in Season 5) and he's been trying his entire life to be the good, caring guy. And with Lucifer and Brady showing him last season how his entire life was manipulated, it only makes sense that he tries to change something.

But that doesn't mean I have to be happy about it. I miss my Season 1/2 Sammy. I really do. I loved Season 3, seeing him take a darker path. I didn't mind Season 4, because I think a lot of his changing wasn't entirely his fault. I put equal amounts of blame on Sam, Dean, and Ruby for that one. Season 5, he was awesome throughout, even if I hated Dean through a lot of it. But he was still awesome!Sam that cared and tried his hardest to stop what Dean and he started.

Hell, even towards the end, people finally started liking Sam again (I for one don't understand why they started bashing on him in the first place, but that's just me *shrug). He was the only one in Team Free Will with any hope left after Dean decided to throw their relationship away and Cas tried to drown all his new feelings in alcohol.

So this new cold, calculated Sam doesn't work for me. And I really hope they fix it a bit.

Seeing Bobby made me UBER happy. I've been waiting through the whole Hellatus to see him, and it didn't disappoint. He was perfect, exactly how we needed him to be. I think it only made sense that he didn't tell Dean that Sam was back. Even if I don't agree with that, because the apple pie life really was just shoved at him. But Dean was kind of/almost happy and Bobby's reasoning was a good one. Because Dean does deserve to get out of the business, even if the bad guys don't feel the same way.

Okay, on to Samuel and the Campbell's. This may make me a jerk or crazy or picky, I don't know. But I don't like them. I don't like that Samuel is back, I don't like how they treated Dean, saying to leave it to "professionals". He's been out for A YEAR. He's not that rusty after doing it his entire life. Not to mention, he's died so many times to save people, he went to HELL. So they need to back the fuck off.

I get that pretty much everyone else they've met is dead. But if God or whoever is bringing people back for Sam to work with, bring back a good character. Like Ellen, or hell, even Jo would work for me (and I don't even like her.) When I first saw this new group of "family" Sam was working with, I tapped bestie's arm and told her I don't like them and I want them gone. She doesn't agree, but we're all entitled to our own opinions, yes?

The Djinn and their tattoos made me crazy happy. I thought that was awesome. And I love how all the baddies out there are going batshit insane and doing things all messed up.

I don't like that Samuel took the Djinn and stowed her in the truck before the boys got back. Sure, they probably need a way to make the antidote/cure or whatever. Or want to torture her. I don't know. But they've just shown us that we can't trust them because they don't trust the boys. And that's not the way to win me over.

I love Sam's new car. It's sleek and awesome. But I miss Impala. She's stuck under a tarp, hidden away in the garage like some dirty secret and that hurts my heart a little. But I think I understand Sam not taking the keys. It's certainly one way to give Dean the option to come back to hunting whenever the urge becomes too much. If he'd taken the Impala, Dean probably wouldn't ever get back into it.

And now, Lisa. They really made me feel for her. A lot. And I didn't think that was possible. But my heart broke for her and for Ben. Because Dean is exactly what they need and what they want and Sam coming back and hunting going crazy is really only going to hurt them. And it's not fair that they have to lose Dean for us to have our show back. And I want to cry for them. Because that's just so sad.

But I've also got to say, I'm really glad they didn't try just killing her off yet. Because with the amount of people they've brought back to life, I wouldn't have been able to handle that last night. *shakes head*

Those are my thoughts on the first episode. A little confusing and I'm sure people out there disagree with me. But that's how I felt after seeing it.

I haven't seen the promo/preview for next week (I never watch them, I like to be completely surprised) but I can't wait. I'm really excited to see what happens next.

ETA: Something I forgot to mention... I never thought I would actually miss Castiel. But I do. Extremely. I actually missed him in the episodes we didn't see him towards the end of Season 5 as well. But I really miss him now. And considering the fact that I hated him in Season 4, I find this rather surprising. ^-^ In a good way, I think.
