At first when dean was telling Krissy she is too young to hunt and victor is a bad guy for getting them into it , I was thinking " dean and sam were much younger when they started" and there dad got them into the life. But I am glad sam addressed that issue later on in the episode. I am interested to see what happens with the angel tablet. I do agree that if they close the gates of hell. I got the impression it just applies to demons. They are other creatures like wearwolfs,shapshifters etc that won't be affected. unless closing the gates get rid of every evil creature.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-64088254129237013872014-08-31T17:50:48.664-04:002014-08-31T17:50:48.664-04:00I really wanted Victor to be played by Antony Stew...I really wanted Victor to be played by Antony Stewart Head. Or Alexis Denisof.<br /><br />I really don't want Amelia to be pregnant (I'd much rather Ben came back, whether he's Dean's biological son or not) but now that you guys have pointed it out, it does seem likely. And the bad guy saying to Sam 'you're not a father' reminded me very much of another show where someone said that to a guy who, while he had no idea of it at the time, actually was.Juliettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00203399623895589924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-70793601379096089952013-10-21T22:07:41.701-04:002013-10-21T22:07:41.701-04:00I'm just catching this episode on netflix, but...I'm just catching this episode on netflix, but the housr Victor has the kids in looks a lot like the set of buffy's house.

I thought the house where the kids were living with Victor looked an awful lot like the house where the Winchesters lived when Mary was murdered.<br /><br />I agree with Jess; in fact, I mentioned it in my comment to "As Time Goes By" earlier this season. As soon as Victor asked Sam if he had any kids, I thought of Amelia. There seems to be a lot of set up this season for her to turn up pregnant.ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-91537185931645263912013-03-31T09:47:32.121-04:002013-03-31T09:47:32.121-04:00I should have proofread my post!

In fact, I just introduced my teen-aged kids to it in the last month or so. I didn't see a single parallel or reference, which is a shame.<br /><br />I wasn't fond of this episode. I am getting tired of the way they way in which they sometimes make Sam look like an idiot to put him in danger. He was already suspicious of Vicotr, yet he goes out with him to look for the vamp and then turns his back on him in such a clueless manner. It didn't ring true to me. Also, why would Victor keep him alive until Sam woke up just to explain his whole plan to Sam. The writing was pretty weak this week and disappointing after last week's awesome episode.<br /><br />Did anyone think of Buffy and the gang when they were talking about how wrong it was for teenagers to have to fight monsters in between high school classes and activities? I missed the Scoobies while watching this ep.Suzannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-7472958328989532572013-03-30T12:09:33.952-04:002013-03-30T12:09:33.952-04:00Other than the high school thing, I didn't not...Other than the high school thing, I didn't note any obvious <i>Freaks and Geeks</i> references, but it's been a while since I've seen it. I guess Krissy had a bit of a Lindsay Weir vibe, but it's only something I thought of after you asked the question.<br /><br />This one didn't do much for me, but the parent-child-legacy thing feels like it has been coming up a lot lately, and I'm starting to wonder if a knocked up Amelia is going to stumble back into the boys' lives. I'm not sure how I'd feel about that kind of development.Jess Lyndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165015932507376656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-67851882160836189172013-03-29T17:39:59.431-04:002013-03-29T17:39:59.431-04:00I won't even go into how disturbing I thought ...I won't even go into how disturbing I thought this episode was. Let's just say that I'm with Dean - kids shouldn't be hunters - ever.<br /><br />It's strange, I've seen every episode of this show since the start, but I couldn't for my life remember this girl, I had to IMDB her. Turns out she was in an ep last year! Hmmm...I must have completely blocked her out, or I might be not that invested in this show after all??<br /><br />Well, all that kids stuff aside, I guess that there were some good moments in there. Some interesting vampire lore a la Supernatural style as Billie pointed out. <br /><br />But my rating would still be zero out of four possibly fatal training exercises.TJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-5084380251181800442013-03-29T13:14:42.273-04:002013-03-29T13:14:42.273-04:00After last week's wondrous ep, this one had to...After last week's wondrous ep, this one had to suffer by comparison, but it wasn't too bad. I really didn't expect that Victor had had a vampire kill the kids' parents, and I was pleased we remembered we had a cure for vamps who hadn't fed yet. When you think about it, a Hogwarts for Hunters isn't the worst idea, but made up of high school grads who WANT to hunt. Even if Sam succeeds, there are still non-demons out in the world that will have to be hunted--or will closing the Gates of Hell do away with ALL evil things automatically? I'm not clear on that. I liked this ep, Billie, but I loved last week's sooooo much! --Robin VogelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-37704526348664146942013-03-29T00:32:48.486-04:002013-03-29T00:32:48.486-04:00I haven't seen this yet, but my understanding ...I haven't seen this yet, but my understanding is that Victor is the same actor who was the Striga in his doctor form in Something Wicked.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
