I'm pretty sure I've witnessed at least two "Oh, DEAN" episodes. More manly tears! More manly shmoop! Brotherly devotion and fatherly devotion and stuff! Making deals with demons and MANLY TEARS!!! I'm buying season three as soon as it's available.

Can't say I'm that I'm in love with the Harvelles; if I never saw them again I wouldn't be too broken up about it. The Ash character is interesting in theory, but somehow, I'm just not buying it. All in all, if the boys never go to the Roadhouse again, I won't miss it.

Most of the episodes have been enjoyable, there's only been one that felt like a bit of a throwaway. One ep out of 30+ isn't bad at all!

Also, Jensen Ackles is just insanely, ridiculously beautiful -- much like Jason Momoa. Also, like Jason Momoa, I *love* watching him work. Supernatural! YAY!!!

The commentary Kripke does during episode 2.21 - All Hell Breaks Loose I includes him talking about the Roadhouse and that's exactly what he said, how tacked on it was, how dumb an idea it was to have this place where all these hunters showed up to have a beer. I think part of the point was to show how isolated Sam and Dean are/were from this whole world of other hunters that John hadn't told them anything about. Partly because John tended to fall out with people, and partly because he was so focussed on what killed Mary that he didn't have time for anyone else. But for the whole first season, you get the feeling that the Winchesters are the only hunters in the world, and the Roadhouse shows us that that's not true at all.

Woman! I just watched this ep with the commentary a few minutes ago, and I nearly laughed when Kripke started talking -- quite gleefully -- about how much he hated the Roadhouse and how happy he was to "torch the mother." ROFL! He said everything I'd been thinking, that it really, really didn't work in the world they'd built up to that point.

That's one thing I really love about Kripke. He's so willing to admit when things don't work.
