"And she didn't even had to point to a sign..." I CAN'T xD

Ok, well, again, I seem to be missing the recaps attached to these episodes. Also, shared disappointments of the title of the premiere not being Hello, Darkness, My Old Friend. Lot to unpack with this premiere. Start with the matter of Darkness, our old friend. You were puzzled by how the Darkness would manifest. I had my own mental image of that, which brings us to the matter of casting that sadly was not to be. As I suspected, the part of Darkness is not being played by the legendary Tim Curry. Which is a shame, particularly how given the smoke monster of it all, we could have combined two goddamn beautiful characters that Tim is famous for. Unfortunately, Tim suffered the stroke back in 2012 which has left him wheelchair bound, hence Tim’s casting not being a realistic option. Though I did hear recently that he is set to be in something new. I NEED to see that for him alone. One thing for sure, seeing who is cast in the role of Darkness suddenly explains why everyone was that dead certain that the Armorer was going to betray Mando and Bo-Katan. We shall see how it all plays out as the season progresses. I will concur with your thought of it feeling like fresh new lore which is nice. Shared feelings of really liking the deputy. She seems a nice lady and holds her own well in this episode. Similar reaction to the stitches, I went, “HRGH!! Please stop showing that.” The vibe does feel reminiscent of The Walking Dead or other such properties that feature those zed words. Well shown with the plotline of Mike. That got me seeing how his scenes got you to tear up, Jess. Impressive dedication on naming his baby. I could see that if my dad was still alive, doing the same thing, albeit Dad would use the time to be adamant about NOT using a junior name, and he too would convey this without even having to ominously point at some random street sign, LOVE that reference/critique. Loved Crowley being a crafty devil escaping his demise. Interesting thing of him stumbling on a Kettleman type couple that wants to get freaky. It does allow him to let off some steam, much to his minions’ confusion. In his shoes, I’d have gotten testier than he did when they asked about why the delay of asking for help until after the, er, murderous orgy, by yelling in response, “Fucking mind your own goddamn beeswax, gents!! Do I meddle in your carnal affairs!?” Heartily agree about the showrunners would be complete fucking idiots to give up Mark as Crowley, who now has half of Hell screaming, giving him pause. Feel bad for Castiel. Knew your reaction to the dog was coming. He probably should have tried harder to get in touch with the boys so they could strap him down, but I assume fear influenced his decision. And now he’s in a tight spot. A big highlight is Sam and Dean’s differing viewpoints on where they’re at. Like you said, you get Dean’s thing of they get stuck in so many situations where they don’t have time to sit and read books as it’s kill or be killed. By the same token, Sam points out that they have been overindulging in the patented approach of shoot first, shoot later, shoot some more, and then when everybody’s dead, try to ask a question or two as to can a solution be found has been causing a lot of damage. And it is a cycle that repeats again and again and again. One nice thing is that the boys agree on the sharing the blame, though I do refute some their claim of setting the Darkness free. Technically Rowena is the one who set the Darkness free. I got a kick out of you wishing for specifics from Sam about his plan. Quite simple really: He was trying to adhere to the trope of the unspoken plan guarantee, which didn’t pan out the way he hoped. Fair point on the overindulgence of said trope though. He is now infected, and they really had to spell that out, even though you protested against said spelling things out. Well, to be fair, this is a CW show, hence a predominantly teenage audience, hence an audience with the attention span of a goldfish, hence the extraneous shot highlighting Sam being infected for good measure as you said. Not the CW’s fault that you and I are in our thirties watching this and they don’t think to alter their conveyance of relevant plot information accordingly. And there’s the mark on the baby. Your first reaction being to say, “I’m confused.” Me, my first reaction was to say, “Huh. For a minute there I thought I heard the magnificent Jerry Goldsmith scores for the Omen Trilogy.” Either way, we ought to have a lot of fun, just as this reaction was most fun and enjoyable, Jess, thank you.
