Spoilers Sweeties! Promo photos from Supernatural season 9 finale! "Do You Believe In Miracles"

Well. This is IT! The season 9 finale. I am full of scaredness! Everyone is freaking me out...particularly you, Jensen! Sush! You're frigtening us! (Never sush, we love listening to you.)

So here are the promo pics for the SEASON FINALEEEEEEEEEEE. *insert echo echo echo*.

Ready? Let's flip out together! Weeeeee!

I have a feeling Dean does not get trapped in the bunker dungeon for too long. I also have a feeling he's summoning his BFF from Hell! 

I love that these guys are so smart about this kind of stuff. It makes my heart all swelly.

And look! Here he is, all trapped in a Devil's trap...where I predict, he won't stay for long!

I won't lie, I like it when Dean growls. I don't like why, but I do like the outcome of why. Like, quite a bit. As in a lot. As in OH BOY! *fans self*

(Look at him. Just, LOOK!)

What's behind door 7B? I feel significance to this number. So I googled it. 

Matthew 7:7 talks about the gateway to Heaven. Genesis 4:7 talks about the gateway to Heaven. Hmmmmmmm.

Of course, it's probably just a door labeled 7B.

Actually it's just the door in the bunker. Damn. I like my theories!

 Oh well, I have learnt so much bible stuffs from Supernatural!

Um. Character spoiler.

Legs. Of character spoiler?

The fact that Castiel kept the pimp mobile is the best. And the fact that it matches his trench is the bestest.

(p.s. I have a feeling the last three pics were out of order!)

BROMENT BROMENT BROMENT BROMENT BROMENT

That is all.

Ugh. I don't want Dean working with Crowley anymore. Because Crowley is working Dean. I'm sure of it. I'm sure he has a plan for him and the whole shebang. I'm sure it wasn't just, kill Abaddon. He knows too much. Look at that shifty face. LOOK AT IT. Did I mention ugh?

Oh nuts. This is not going to go anywhere good. I can feel it in my waters. Unless they're just swinging by Brownsville for a beer and pub lunch! Yay! :D

Is Crowley back to living in a mobile home? Because, cool!

Boys. Together. (But not like, together together).

Sam in full stride is a sight to behold. Clothes and hair all wind swept. It's windy up high where he is!

My baby. Oh... MY! I won't lie, Blade!Dean is smokin' hot. But he makes me painfully sad too. I'm so sad for him. So very sad. I want that mark off his damn arm.

But not like, you know Krycek Tunguska style or anything!

Are they on a boat? Did Metatron join the merchant navy or something?

Metatron: "I'm on a boat"

(Sorry, just had to (not sorry))

*wibble* to infinity and beyond.

I gotta admit it. I'm totes freaked out. I have no idea what's going to happen in this finale and the ideas I do have make my stomach ache. I'm more nervous and excited about this finale than I have been since, well probably "Swan Song", because it feels THAT big, it feels like whatever will happen will be that catastrophic. Catastrophic to the characters and catastrophic to my feels! Which makes me terrified, yet so thrilled. And isn't that soooo Supernatural?

That this show, after 9 seasons, can remain this exciting and surprising is astonishing in itself. It just keeps on bringing it. And I'm sure, on Wednesday night (I am in Australia remember), I will be shaking my fists at the TV through a veil of tears, while I rock back and forth muttering "5 months. 5 months"!

Damn I love this show!

Spoliers Sweeties! Promotional photos from Supernatural 9.22 "Stairway to Heaven"

It's the penultimate episode! (Who says penultimate). OH MY G'

Here are some photos to set your brains a whirring!

Ohhhh Tessa! I love Tessa. I love the Reapers. Don't kill her. Usually I'd say Dean would make sure she was okay, because they have history and he likes her...but right now, I don't know, what with Dean having activated the Mark of Cain!

Mmmmmmmmmm.... pretty. 

I think I'm going to like this scene. I like this photo! I like how Dean is all reaching out across the table.

(Don't kill Tessa)

Deano sweetie, put the angel blade down! Does that blade look a bit well used or is that just the lighting?

OK IT'S "THE FIRST BLADE" ISN'T IT!

Speaking of lighting. Check out the next series of images featuring Sam and Cas who obviously team up while Dean tries to get information out of Tessa the Reaper. The lighting is so pretty in these scenes.

Cas looks like he's modelling. Sam looks startled by the chic.

Oh this is a glorious shot of Sam...

They swung by the local disco ;D

Where does this door go?! 

What's Metatron up to now? A night out with his bowling league?

Oh hey's Gadreel. Are you secretly working against Metatron now, or are you just as dim as you were when you first decided to join up with him. (He's so dim...)

Metatron is my favourite evil character in a long time. Not counting Crowley of course, who I have to remind myself is evil! Metatron is just so annoyingly perky with his evilness. He's gleefully evil! You know he's all powerful, you know he knows it, but he toys with everyone like a kitten with a bug. Pat, pat, pat around the room. It's genuinely scary and also makes you hate him. But I'm enjoying hating him! And Curtis Armstrong eats up every scene he's in. But I do want Metatron to get what he deserves. You know what would be cool? If he was stripped of his angel powers and he became just an odd little guy who read a lot. I bet he'd hate that. I think he has a bit of a complex...

So there you go peeps...a sneaky look at the second to last episode of the season. All angelic by the looks. I wonder where the Crowley/Abaddon situation is by this point.

The Light on Spoilers, Heavy on Squee Preview of Supernatural 9.18 "Meta Fiction"

Well that's it folks! We got through it! The last hellatus of the season and the toughest one, because this was SHOWERHELLATUS! Yes...we were made to wait and wait after a preview featuring Dean in the shower! I mean...how cruel! But before I get to THAT, let's look at where we've been.

When we last saw Sam and Dean, they were on the same page...well at least about Abaddon, everything else is anyone's guess! (It hurts, it hurts!)

It turns out, Abaddon is stealing souls to create her own demon army and take control of Hell and probably everything else in the bargain. So stopping Abaddon just became priority mission number 1 for the Winchesters.

Dean is feeling a lot of feels and some of them are because of the Mark of Cain and the First Blade. Having had his hands on the Blade, he's been jonesing for it ever since...and one person knows this for sure, Crowley. Of course, Dean is also just damn well down and out about everything. Having his brother distance himself like he has is never going to not make Dean hurt all over. Add to that guilt and fear and everything in between and Dean's back sneaky drinking the hard stuff and getting darker and darker and this is not going anywhere good! Gah! Thankfully, Sam is noticing and even if Dean trying to cover how he's really feeling, Sam is seeing that something is decidedly not right in Deanland.

Crowley most obviously knows a lot more about the Mark and the Blade than he's let on. He has a plan for Dean and he's playing Dean beautifully. He's appealing to all of Dean's insecurities, trying to bond over addiction and conveniently being the only person that will listen him. When Dean needs someone at the moment, he's reaching out to Crowley because he doesn't feel there's anyone else who would understand. He doesn't feel like he has anyone else full stop. For obvious reasons, he doesn't feel like he can reach out to Sam...even though I am quite sure Sam would be wide open to Dean in his time of need. Damn it, boys! Dean is sliding down a dark and slippery slope. This isn't going anywhere good at all!

As for the angel war. When last we saw Castiel, he was becoming the new leader of the angel revolution and Metatron was off doing whatever with his God complex and his lapdog, Gadreel (the dumbest angel in the garrison).

And that, ladies and germs, brings us to...

“Meta Fiction” 

METATRON OFFERS CASTIEL A DEAL — Metatron (Curtis Armstrong) attempts to get Castiel (Misha Collins) to join forces with him. Still furious with Metatron, Castiel (Misha Collins) refuses, which sets a surprising plan in motion.  Meanwhile, Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) capture Gadreel (Tahmoh Penikett).  Thomas J. Wright directed the episode written by Robbie Thompson (#918).   

Oh boy howdy! It's a party! 

Robbie Thompson always delivers lovely episodes. He writes with equal amounts of humour and pathos and large dollops of perfectly positioned pop culture references. I love his stuff, so I'm wrapped that we have another episode from Robbie. The last episode Thomas J. Wright directed was "Holy Terror", which it really was!

So we finally get to see the brothers confront and beat the snot out of Gadreel. Weeee! I wonder how that's going to end. Does Metatron burst in and save Gadreel? Or will this be the end of him? What the hell is this surprising plan that Castiel sets in motion? 

It sounds like a lot is going on in this episode and all these characters are at some point together. Look!

So that's all exciting! 


Okay, shall we look at the promo?

It looks so goooooood, doesn't it? So much happening! I love that Metatron is writing the story here. How very meta of Metatron. It reminds me of Chuck! (Only in that he's writing about the characters in Supernatural....and maybe that he's little and a bit scruffy.)

Looking at the text on the page being typed, the Horn of Gabriel is mentioned, huh and Metatron has Cas saying "What if I fail again". Sooo interesting.

I also love seeing the bros work together to nab Gadreel in the Holy fire. That looks expertly played. I love me some smart Winchesters! Team Winchester activate!

I am wondering, with the showerhellatus and all, if this is just one episode in this promo. You know how sometimes they pop in stuff from a couple of eps after a haitus? But here's hoping it's all in this one, because it looks epic!

And then there's Dean showering and shirtlessly looking in the mirror...flashing his tatt *sigh* I have a feeling this scene is going to happen at the top of the episode and give us a bit more of an insight into how the MoC is making him feel, possibly with quick cuts to flashbacks, all whilst he's having a private, wet and drippy moment. But then I could be totally wrong! Happens all the time!

By the way, this will be the 4th time we've seen Dean showering, the others being "Bugs", "Mystery Spot" and "Of Grave Importance." He also looked at himself in the mirror in the bathroom in a simiar way as in this promo in "Lazarus Rising" when he was remembering Hell...even though he'd just said he didn't. We saw Sam coming out of the shower in "Hell House". These things are important. 

Okay, so what about the preview clip.

It's a bit of a short one! Only 10 seconds longer than the promo! Geesh. 

What's going on with the Mark? Wouldn't it be cool if it was like Harry Potter's scar and started to twitch when Abaddon was nearby! Yeah, probably not, but I do wonder if it's causing Dean pain or if it's just that he's so aware of it because everything in him is now screaming out for the Blade.

I wonder how long it's going to be before Sammy calls bullshit on Dean's "Yeah, I'm fine" nonsense. The way he's looking at his brother, he knows craps going down. I just hope he decides to put their bad blood aside and try to reach out to Dean. Remember when Jared said it's going to take something big to bring Sam and Dean back together emotionally? Is that where we're heading towards with Dean? Is Sam going to have to stop him giving into the First Blade entirely. 

Be interesting if Dean's faced with killing Abaddon. but that it means he'll be lost forever. What will the brothers do? It'll be kind of like Sam and the trials and closing the gates of Hell, huh? Is that where we're going? A reverse of Sacrifice? Where they have to decide again whether their lives and love and the future lives they could save outweigh the greater good of this one act? Is it going to be Sam who tells Dean to step away from the plan this time? Gosh, do you think that's where we're going? Dean being the one taken over by something supernatural and Sam having to talk Dean out of dying for the cause? Would Sam talk him out of it do you think? Will Sam have to come face to face his words from earlier in the season and decide whether he can hold true to them? OMG! I hope this is where we're going, because it's so intriguing and smart.

Like I said in the latest Women of Letters podcast, where Jules and I discussed "Blade Runners" and "Mother's Little Helper" (sorry about the lack of written reviews btw), where we're going with the bros seems to me to be all about understanding and maybe, hopefully, acceptance. The brothers continually go through similar experiences in a mirroring of each other's paths. Whether trying for a 'normal' life, trips to Heaven, Hell, Purgatory, the brothers share these experiences and it really should help them to be more understanding and accepting of each other. It should. But Dean has never had something supernatural coursing through his veins and Sam has never been on the other side of that. This is very much a flip of season 4 in that regard. Hmmmm. Eeeee! I'm clapping my hands with glee at the possibilities!

Alos, I'M SO SCARED AND EXCITED!

We only have 6 episodes until the end of the season. I'm terrified, quite frankly and I can't wait to see what happens and where all of this has been going. I CAN'T WAIT (and then I'll be sad because the season will be over. THANK CHUCK FOR SEASON 10!)

Enjoy the episode everyone! *whispers* Enjoy Dean showering....

-sweetondean

HOLD THE PRESSES! Here's the CHCH promo!

 

Oh gosh, so it looks like the boys go to rescue Cas. Try to do a deal with Metatron. I guess they offer up Gadreel as a trade.  

"We can't trust Metatron" Too right Dean! Gahhhh!

"It's going to be a hell of a show" HELLZ YEAH IT IS!

Enjoy everyone!

Promotional photos and SNEAK PEEK Clip - Supernatural 9.18 "Meta Fiction"

Soooooo just under a week to go and we've got some promo pics and a sneak peek! Now before you go getting excited, there are not promo pics of Dean showering and the sneak peek is not of him suddsing up. DAMN IT. But there is still plenty of awesome!

It looks like Cas has been cornered by fangirls...AGAIN!

Then freeze frame. Then cut to black, act out.

Freeze frame.

Um...Yeah. Freeze frame.

Serviceable.

Casually leaning on the Impala looking awesome.

I think keeping their distance from Metatron is a good idea. Also it doesn't make him look so wee in the frame next to the gigantic Moose and pretty big Squirrel!

Cas and his sexy angel girlfriends. Or maybe captors. Either/or they're sexy!

That's just your finger, Metatron...not a gun.

Did they have Gadreel stashed in the trunk? 

"Impala - with a trunk big enough for carrying demons or angels!" 

That should be the Impala's tag line.

The gangs all here (and their fists are balled, so they're either mad or it was freezing the day they shot this!)

Oh Dean and your frowny face. So purdy.

Um. Um. *sigh* Um.

Casual no tie Cas. I like. This is a lovely shot of him!

Action shot with Baby!

Wouldn't you just love to be driving down the road and see them hanging around the Impala like this? Or maybe not...because that would mean there was trouble about! Okay... I STILL WOULD!

DID CAS KEEP HIS PIMPMOBILE?

Popping by the gas-n-sip for a cold beverage and to kill an angel or two.

I should be looking at how awesome it is that Dean has Gadreel trapped...but I'm looking at Dean's legs. Because, legs.

It's like staring into the sun! Wait. That's probably not what Gadreel's thinking, I think it's:

"I must concentrate real hard so I don't stare at his sexy lips"

Yep, that'd be it.

Well really, he had it coming.

O.M.G.

I wanna kill him.

No, I do.

But Dean, he possessed me.

Yeah, well he tricked me and pretended to be this other nice angel.

Not quite the same Dean.

Okay, how about this...

I'm listening.

We both stab him in his smug angel face.

Like a team.

Yeah, but business team...because that's how you want it Sam, right? *drips with sarcasm*.

*rolls eyes* Whatever Dean, let's just do it.

Okie dokie! Here's the sneak peek clip!

Just call him on his bullshit, Sam because he's so not FINE. CRAAAAAAAAP. And is the Mark itching for action, like, literally? Or maybe it's like Harry Potter's scar and when he gets closer to Abaddon it twinges! That'd be cool. This made me think of ghost sickness itch! Except...I don't think this is going to end in an epic rendition of Eye of the Tiger.

I has so much worry for Dean. He's just.... ACK. I has worry *wibble*
