Webmasters' Thoughts

Hoppy says, "I can't even figure out where to begin with this one!  From start to finish, it's perfectly paced, brilliantly written and the acting is just amazing.  The exorcism scenes at Bobby's are great, and Jensen's intensity as well as Nicki Aycox's portrayal of the possessed-Meg and the real Meg are both top notch.  From there, we jump right into the boys rescuing their father and the resulting aftermath.  The climax of the episode is undoubtedly the scenes in the cabin with John, Dean and Sam.  All three actors are at their absolute best and those scenes are so well done they leave me breathless.  The ending cliffhanger is such a shocker, I think I actually had a heart attack the first time I watched it!  Season 2 cannot come soon enough, because Season 1 certainly ended with a big bang."

Jen says, "Nothing yet!"
