xparrotAHHHH I hate cliffhanger finales! And it's not even the finale!
Spoilers ahoy...
Nooo~! Please don't kill John! Oh, please, please, please, I like John. He's so wonderfully messed-up and dysfunctionally devoted to his boys. And there's so few recurring chars. Who are still alive, anyway, because they're dropping like flies. About halfway through the opening sequence I started cursing because I realized it had to be Pastor Jim. RIP, Pastor Jim and Caleb. We hardly knew ye, and loved ye anyway, since the Winchesters needed all the allies they can get.
Speaking of the opening. Kansas. They did a music video to Kansas. Which is beautiful on so many levels. Not to mention, has anyone ever seen an official fanvid before? Flashback homages a la Highlander's finale are one thing, but this was pretty much exactly a fanvid. Good vid, too.
And Dean. Oh Dean. Has anyone noticed that Dean's ultimate defense mechanism, when he's pushed to the wall (literally, in this case) is to drop all his walls? He turns off all his attitude, rolls over and reveals his squishy underbelly. He wouldn't make it far in a nature special, but it's a successful tact with human beings. Straight-from-the-heart, unvarnished truth can burn. Dean's situation is at least as heartbreaking as his brother's. Sam has a life, has a dream of something more than what he is, what he does. Dean has hunting, and his family, and that's it. The hunting he'll always have, but if he loses either of the only people who he can be close to...
In conclusion: Nooo~! Please don't kill John!
