Supernatural 6x15: The French Mistake

[moonshayde]

A few thoughts on tonight's episode, a bit about Smallville, and then I have a mention of the preview for next week's SPN on a separate cut.



Oh man. This was 1 of 2 episodes I was semi-spoiled for, so I was really curious how they would manage this one. I was so presently surprised!

I loved it. I don't even know where to begin. Jared and Jensen play Sam and Dean playing Jared and Jensen playing Sam and Dean. HEE.

I loved how vain and awful Jared and Jensen in this "world" are and how much they hated each other, given that the actors are BFFs and are fairly down to earth. Jensen never went to Jared's house? *snort" Jensen *lived* in Jared's house for a while in reality, LOL. Misha as a character was hilarious and the real Misha even posted what the character Misha posted on his twitter:

"Ola mishamigos! J2 got me good. Really starting to feel like one of the guys."

But I guess what really got me is how they took the meta-iest episode ever and made it totally work as a plot. I bought it. I could see the angels creating something like this as a distraction. And it ended up being mytharc heavy in the end.

And I got to see Eric Brady!

Kudos to Gen for coming back to poke fun at herself. Gotta love Dean's line: "You married fake Ruby!"

The Impalas. "Drugs." The mention of how bad the names Misha and Jensen are. Hahaha.

Anyway, really I could go on forever but I'm tired and wouldn't make sense. It was awesome. AWESOME.



This was a filler ep if I ever saw one. Parts of it were funny. My mom and I were laughing at the Lois and Oliver parts. And Clark was good. But overall? Seemed like a waste. Not sure I'll ever get Hartley in drag out of my head again, heh heh.



The trailer was awesome. So creepy and wtf? It really reminds me of the X-Files episode Ice, which is one of my faves of the XF series. I hope this SPN episode is just as awesome. I can't wait for next week! *bounces* I don't know anything about it, but please be even half as good as my imagination!

Loved the Smallville ep. Not as much as "The French Mistake", but it was still quite hilarious. Wouldn't call it filler, since it was Chloe's last ep (unless AM returns for the finale), & Clark's words to Lois suggested there won't be a wedding anytime soon... Maybe it just jumped over a few hurdles that would've gotten in the way of the Darkseid plotline & the ultimate ending. *shrugs*

Not sure I'll ever get Hartley in drag out of my head again, heh heh.
Yeah... Could've done without that. :D

And I got to see Eric Brady!
Yay! Again! I would've preferred seeing him with Greta, though. I liked that pairing. ;)

Sure it was Chloe's last ep, but it really didn't do anything in terms of plot, so therefore a filler. I don't consider an episode about a bunch of heroes getting drunk to be part of the larger story ;)

I'm sure the actors had fun with it at least!
