I spent the season wondering the same thing. I was not disappointed with how it was handled, to say the least. I was very surprised, though.

A couple of the episodes you have coming up are among my favorites - Mystery Spot (11) and Ghostfacers (13) are great.

You can skip over the 'then' part at the beginning (you already know that stuff), and you pick up where the last episode left off most of the time.
That, and because it's a good show. Many times when I'd reach the end of an episode I would think "what? ALREADY?"
Yes, I say that after every episode. It's better because I don't even have to bother FFW through commercials with Netflix.
I know I can skip over the beginning but I rarely do. I think it gives me insight on what the episode will be about.

Good to know!

So I finished Episode 6 before bed. I'm tempted to see how many more I'm going to have to endure of Bella. Even the name is annoying. Hated the actress on TVD and hate her on Walking Dead. She's not as grating on this but I still don't like episodes that she's so featured in like this last one. And hello boys, can we get a clue that this bitch is always going to pull a fast one on you? Even though they saved her life, she'll do it again. I'm over it already.
(although I did crack up at her telling Dean they should have hate sex and his response is to cover himself and say "don't objectify me!" ha!)

I also love that Bobby is seemingly around for good. He's shown up in almost every episode as of late, even if just for a minute.

Don't think Sam is bad in any way but I do love that he seems a little less of a pushover. I was a bit surprised when he killed the crossroads demon. I can only assume that her "boss" is the devil himself. And speaking of... I forgot to mention that I was surprised they actually killed off the yellow eyed demon. I kinda thought he would turn out to be the devil. Guess not. So the color of his eyes meant nothing?

OH and WTF! with their mom saying something like "You!" when she saw dude at the crib when he had Sam there like the ghost of Christmas past! So mom wasn't just some innocent victim!! I want to get back to that and know what it was all about!!!

Bella was created as a one time character, but the CW wanted the show to add female leads to help attract a higher female demographic. So the character was expanded, but it's obvious the producers didn't want her, and had no idea what to do with her. I hope it's not a big spoiler to just say she is only a part of the show during the third season.

It is a spoiler but one I'm okay with. I don't absolutely hate her like I did Rose on TVD but I will be more than okay to see her go! And I'm wondering why they think adding more females will bring a higher dem of female viewers than the already two hot men? ummm...
If they really wanted more women, they could just have added a hot demon instead of all the ugly ones.

Dude. I just finished Mystery Spot. That is a favorite of yours???? I absolutely hated hated hated that episode! Stupid Trixter! Poor Sam. That was not right at all!!! They really have to save Dean. Sam is not going to be okay without him. Not at all! The only good thing about this episode was another brother hug.

The reason I liked Mystery Spot is because it really exemplifies the series' strengths:

1. It took a tired trope (groundhog day) and breathed fresh life into it, acknowledging both that movie and also tipping its hat to the X-Files (cf. the X-Files episode "Monday")
2. It was funny and off-kilter, deftly mixing comedy and drama
3. It was exciting and unpredictable, playing nimbly with expectations
4. The acting was great
5. It seemed like a bottle show, but it actually progresses the story arc though you only notice in hindsight near the episode's conclusion as it all comes together.
6. It explores the main theme of the season (Sam coming to terms with the fact that he may be powerless to save Dean), and really grows Sam's character.

Jo is the daughter from the Roadhouse right? I like her. I keep expecting to see her again but nothing. I like Ellen too. I wish they had bigger roles. If they wanted females they already had two likable ones IMO.

I agree with everything you said and I still hated every second of watching it but the very end.

Ghostfacers was awesome. Jeesh I cannot believe I'm going to finish Season 3 tonight. I really have no life thanks to this show!

I get the fans hating Bella but supposedly, there was a lot of fan hate for Jo too.
I never understood it.

(Of course, I think that Alona Tal should get more work than she does.)

I liked her on my short lived show Cane too. She's also guest starred on several other shows I watch that I can't name right off. I think fans will hate any person that might be a romantic interest of their favorite male character. Doesn't make sense but I do see that a lot.

I also just realized the girl that played the werewolf that Sam sexed up was Mia from Two and a Half Men!

And question. In the dream episode why is it Lisa the "bendy Yoga chick" he had a weekend with his fantasy and not the 4400 girl he was supposedly in love with enough to tell what they did??

About to watch finale now. Bye Bella! Hope I wasn't supposed to feel bad for her demise.

Damnit Supernatural and their effing cliffhangers! If I were having to wait months to watch the first episode of Season 4 I would be one livid bitch right now. Luckily I'm going right on to it before bed!

So there's the face I keep seeing on all the current media! I was wondering who he was and when he'd come along! And I've seen the name Castiel before but try not to read or pay attention to any current references. He's an angel!? Well that explains how Dean got out of hell. But it doesn't explain the why other than his "God commanded it". This is crazy. No dude, Dean doesn't feel he's worthy of saving. This isn't exactly news!

And what in the hell, Sam! Lying his ass off to Dean. He's got some serious powers! I suppose now that those are God given powers and not demon?? And he's hooked up with a new version of Ruby. Too bad, I liked the other one.

I'm confused and intrigued for sure! Bed for me!

Question for those that have seen both the broadcast episodes and the DVDs/Streaming/Downloads... Do they use the same music in both? Or we're they forced to do a WKRP and nix some of the classic rock songs that we used repeatedly in the original broadcast?

So I went back to check out the pilot, which I hadn't seen since it aired. Besides being kick-ass even the second time around, I was surprised to instantly recognize Sam's gf (Adrianne Palecki from "Friday Night Lights"), and the woman in white (Sarah Sashi from "Fairly Legal" most recently).

"Supernatural" has always been a watch once type of show for me. I may have to reconsider that.

You're going to love season 4.

Spoiler:
Lilith was my favorite, I wish they'd bring her back. There is and was nothing like Lilith, she was the best of the series.

I hear classic rock in every episode via Netflix. I swear just hearing that Kansas song that they use in "the road so far" kills me.

And Enrique I can't quote you or I'll see your spoiler but I already love Season 4 and I'm only 1 episode in.

I'm driving to work thinking about the show and the episodes. I have so many questions still. But I won't post them because JYoung will just tell me to keep watching anyhow. I was going to force myself to not watch any tonight so I could get some work done but I'm already feenin' to get home and watch another and I've been at work less than an hour.

I am this show's bitch.
