I thought that witches got their power from the hell, so wouldn't the king of hell be immune to spells? I'm starting to want to like this show more than I like it.

Some do, some don't. And to some extent "witches" are just what they call evil magic users. There are plenty of folks with magic powers or that do magic poo poo that they don't call witches. It's not like the boys can't do a bit of mojo now and again.

Yeah, witch just seems to be the catch-all term for "person who casts bad spells". Sometimes a demon is helping them out to become more powerful, sometimes you have witches like the poker dude who don't seem to have anything to do with hell. Anyway I don't think there's anything particularly special about the king of hell aside from getting to rule it - I don't think it grants them any kind of special immunity against hell/demon-based power, and seems to clearly not be the case based on how scared Crowley was of Cain. So I guess the explanation is just "it doesn't work that way" and you probably shouldn't spend a lot of time thinking too hard about it, like many of the rules in this show.

Did they ever explain why crowley is a crimson demon rather than the regular black? Lilith was white, but IIRC even the yellow eyed demon was black smoke. Assuming that was just a cosmetic change they made later, lets assume that YED should've had yellow smoke. That's all of 3 demons we've seen that are significantly different. Was crowley always a red smoke demon? Before becoming the king of hell?

I don't know about the smoke color - that was probably just something they added to make Crowley more unique, probably using the red eyes from being a crossroad demon (although do they ever show him doing the eye thing?) as justification. I think Alistair (pretty sure, although it's been a while since I watched the episodes with him) and Samhain also had whiteish eyes, but I think both of their smoke was black when Sam did his thing on them.

I really hope Crowley isn't being taken that easily but he's been heavily off his game since he started downing human blood.

All this witch talk just makes me miss the magical couple from season 7 even more. They dropped Leviathans like it was child's play, and maybe if the actors they cast had been regular run of the mill nobodies they could've brought them back for recurring roles.

I hope Cas' daughter gets Poochied and we never see her again. In the first episode she was understandable, but in the second one she comes off dumb as gently caress. Almost as dumb as her hair. This season has been really bad, I mean, they came out of the gate swinging with demon Dean and Crowley broeing it up but it got bad really quick. I know some of you like that there is no deffinitive end-game for the season yet (maybe getting the mark of Cain off? ) but for me it seems like so far we've got a few good episodes and a whole lot of bad ones, plus the Rowena stuff is cliched as hell and it got old two episodes ago.

Yeah, this season seems to be spinning its wheels right now. Either some major plot should start happening or we need to get some more good one-offs (like Fan Fiction or Hibbing 911).

I don't think we are going to get much of an overreaching plot other than "Consequences". Maybe Metatron getting lose and having to get ganked. Yea, I was completely expecting the weird people the daughter hooked up with to be demons, but nope, just weird rear end normal people. My thoughts, Metatron gets loose, kills the daughter, Cas goes all old testament, Dean gets rid of the mark and then BOOM OH poo poo WE NEED THE MARK AND THE BLADE BECAUSE OF PLOT REASONS WHY METATRON CAN'T BE KILLED WITHOUT IT and then fade to black. Crowley's mom is gonna go down, hard. She's bumbly, she's a bit of an airhead, and most importantly she is hardcore loving with the King, and I'm pretty sure we are going to see that whatchacallit, council? of witches come into play later on.

Except of course that it's the only practical way for the TV show to do it since two Chrysler building sized three headed glowing things screeching at high volumes would be difficult to make work. They have to shoot it like that or everybody watching the show would burn their eyes out.

Well, they finally found something worse then Felicia Day acting like nerd gamer girl. Felicia Day trying to act like an evil badass. I'm apparently the only one who doesn't think Felicia Day is a convincing actress though. quote:Charlie's come back from the Oz war broken in two. It's a great chance for Day to show off her acting range as well as some sweet knife handling skills. And kudos to Supernatural, a show that seems to take the road-well traveled a few too many times (brotherly secrets, angsty fights and big bads) for finding so many different things to do with her. Charlie retains the same adorkable charm, but she's never the same character twice pentyne fucked around with this message at 05:53 on Jan 28, 2015 |

Even regular Dean is hard to imprison. Dark Dean would be quite happy to become a demon again, so he wouldn't be afraid of death. They'd have to find a way to contain Dark Dean so he couldn't escape and also couldn't hurt himself. He'd be harder to contain than Demon Dean, because they have to keep him physically healthy so he needs food, hygiene and exercise, they can't just leave him chained to a chair. It would be easier to keep whole Dean imprisoned than splitting him in two and trying to keep just his dark half contained.

This is like three episodes in a row where I watched the whole thing and can't remember them the next day. Nothing of any importance is happening and this is more or less the same poo poo we've been seeing for 3-4 seasons now. I feel like I want to get off this ride but I don't know if I can. I usually ride these shows out until the bitter end(Dexter, Sons of Anarchy), but here there is no end in sight. This poo poo could go on for another 4 or 5 seasons, I can't hang on for that long.

I usually ride these shows out until the bitter end(Dexter, Sons of Anarchy), but here there is no end in sight. This poo poo could go on for another 4 or 5 seasons, I can't hang on for that long. Since season 9 was the last of a 3 year guarantee (7/8/9) and season 10 was a holy poo poo we're coming back they can't write insanely detailed stories stretching across multiple seasons because they don't know if they'll get cancelled, so everything they do needs a quick way to wrap up and give a good series finale. Since CW renewed this show so early it might be a sign they're willing to do another multi-season promise so the writers can stop spinning their wheels and avoiding adding anything to big. By this point last season we were already full into the Angel civil war happening on Earth, Metatron playing both sides, and Kevin getting killed. All of that required the groundwork being laid in the previous season in order for them introduce it in season 9. For now, season 10 started out as demon Dean and Crowley palling around, something I wish they had stuck with but given the inital worry that season 10 would be the last wanted to set it up so that Dean could lose the mark and give up being a hunter while Sam becomes the new Bobby to the next generation of hunters.

If this is the shite we're getting, they might as well just end it. They should have just let Dean kill Charlie. At least then it wouldn't have been this soap opera level twee crap. edit: loving hell, like all this fan-pandering through Charlie is totally show ruining. Why the hell are they taking any sort of advice from her? Like seriously. What level of authority does she have to say "she's not letting this happen to them" as if the character is on the same level as something like Bobby or Cas or whatever.
