Season Six: Oozing cheese. Not so good from what I’ve seen so far (eps 1-5).
“They do know we’re brothers, right?”
“Doesn’t seem to matter.”
Possibly my favourite “Supernatural” moment of all time. 
I love this show; it might be getting past its prime, but I’ll watch Jared and Jensen as long as someone is willing to broadcast them - those are two fine-looking young men. (It doesn’t hurt that the show is entertaining as hell and doesn’t take itself too seriously, either.)
ETA: I forgot Castiel! How could I forget Castiel? Talk gruff to me, baby!
Thanks for the Youtube link, by the way; I didn’t want to do anything else today. 
Have y’all forgotten “Mannequin 3, The Reckoning”?
It’s a saga, so it’s best to go from season 1, episode 1, and onward, just so you can keep track of everyone and everything. Not that it’s mindbendingly complex, but there’s been quite a bit going on with the brothers, their parents, grandfather, friends/hunters, angels, demons, Lucifer, God, hell, heaven, and all that.
I’m a fan, but it kinda seems like it needed to end after S5, which was supposedly where they were planning to end it. I watched a few of S6 and lost interest. I’m sure I’ll go back and finish the whole thing, and I would absolutely agree that you need to start at the beginning.
I agree with this. I found Season 6 a huge disappointment. Re-watching Seasons 1 & 2 after that just to reaffirmed how good it used to be.
So I guess it’s not going to get much better. Bummer. Not having
The Tricksteraround anymore isn’t helping, either.
Season 6 starts off rather weakly, but picks up steam toward the end. Overall not as solid as the previous seasons, but not entirely a wash, either.
They also have “My Bloody Valentine”, which shares the title with a lame movie…that stars Jensen Ackles.
Oh, and this year we also have ones called:
Season Seven, Time for a Wedding!
and
Shut up, Dr. Phil
“It’s season 7, time for a weddding!”
Season 6 will probably live on as the “bashed season” when looking back on Supernatural. It deserved it a bit, but it was far from horrible. Just a step back from the awesomeness of seasons 4 and 5.
For me, it was waaay too much angst, and not enough humor (*The French Mistake *aside. I was in Best Buy today wondering if that episode along with 2-3 others justified buying the Season 6 DVDs).
Plus, can some explain to me what Mitch Pileggi was doing in Season 6? I was/am completely baffled by his character arc.
I might be wrong, but I believe Mitch Pelligi was introduced in Season Four as Mary’s Father. AKA Sam and Dean’s Grandfather. He was Samuel, and his wife was Deanna. Hence the names of Mary’s sons names. Sam and Dean.
I might be late in the game; it was either season four or five. And Yellow eyes was involved. So that’s where I put the whole reboot in charge. IMO, this is where it gets good.
I agree that S6 was the weakest; they never really figured out a direction for it, although several individual episodes are good, especially IMO the stuff in the middle.

I think it’s possible that Season 6 was weak simply because Sam and Dean weren’t playing their usual roles as the brothers who have only each other in the world and would (literally) die for each other. A huge part of the show depends on that chemistry (all homo-erotic jokes aside).
This, and it was quite clear Lucifer was the ultimate enemy and goal of the show. After Lucifer, what else is there?
“God,” apparently.
That’s what I thought, though they did not “go there”, unless you are counting Castiel.
That’s who I meant. The quotation marks were shorthand for “angel/former angel/angel again juiced up on purgatory souls.” 
There’s no way the series ends without (the original) God actually showing up*. Not with all the breadcrumbs they’ve placed for us.
- If he hasn’t already.
I don’t think so. I think they decided not to deal with it by saying God isn’t involved.
I get your * and I do not think he has already shown up. I think it’s just fans wishing. I think it is far more likely that particular servant of God served his purpose and, well, “raptured”.
