Oh my goodness, this was a FANTASTIC episode! I nearly fell off the couch because I was laughing so much! Seriously though, I thought this episode was great, especially after the stress in the previous episode. There were five things that were really good about it:

  1. Charlie
  2. Charlie
  3. Charlie
  4. Charlie
  5. Dean wearing medieval clothes and giving the speech from Braveheart.

Seriously though, I ADORE Charlie. I wish she was in every episode! She just fits in so well with the Winchesters, like she’s the feisty younger sister they never had. I’m also just really glad that we have a good, strong female character on the show (as opposed to Amelia (no shade to Amelia, but, also, shade to Amelia)).

I also just loved the little world that they set up in this episode! It was so fun and cool, and I really enjoy that Dean just got so INTO it! Dean has this tendency to really embed himself in whatever subculture they encounter, which is an interesting psychological trait, but also really fun.

Anyway, I don’t really know what else to say about this episode. It was just great and fun, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I don’t know what it was, but this episode just spoke to my soul. (And I quite enjoyed Dean in his “handmaiden” outfit; he looked really good).

Also, I’m glad that after eight seasons, someone FINALLY realized that their badges are fake.

Rating: 10/10
