Nov. 3rd, 2007 08:19 am*screams* OK, what an AWESOME episode! Straight-up great! OH YEAH, THIS IS THE SHOW I LOVE.
*twirls like a mad thing* with the fairy tales! And the BROTHERS finally and thank god! And the horrifying demon (although SIGH, of COURSE she has a boss and of COURSE it's a guy. YAWN. Sometimes women have agency too, show.) And the usual problematic othering of women which - I am so glad not to have an episode that's all, "Look! Boobies! Hur hur hur!" that I'm almost pleased to see an ep like this. And after all, creepy othering of women kind of goes hand-in-hand with the fairytale concept, and it's not like they didn't use a couple of the big bad wolf fairy tales too. And just. *jumps up and down* MY SHOW FINALLY.
ETA: OK, the one thing I didn't like about that episode: "Dude. Could you be more gay?" I really just... flinched at that. Jared's blankface almost redeemed the line but... man, it made me feel so uncomfortable. I would frankly have preferred Dean calling him a girl yet again.
