Come to think of it, though, John has always been a vessel for Michael. I don't see why Lucifer would take that form. But I guess I also don't see why Michael would talk to Sam instead of Dean.

Couldn't remember what the second monster was ty.
The poor impala. Moments after their "dad" commended Dean for taking good care of the car it gets brutally injured

I do wonder if all the circumstantial events (pennies, hair pin, etc) that allowed Sam and Dean to survive this episode are God's way of helping out. Kind of in the same way that the sun glinting off the impala in season 5 (leading to the recollection of memory - the seemingly unimportant bits and pieces from their life) helped Sam gain control over Lucifer.

Maybe because Lucifer showing up as Lucifer Mark Peli would freak Sam out. If I were Lucifer and wanted to contact Sam I'd do it in the form of someone Sam loves and trusts (Mom/Dad).

Yeah. That's true. Like how did her purse manage to get to the back and just happen to have a penny made with enough Cooper.
Also Deans blading sliding under the seat. The thing I loved the most was the camera focusing on both the blade and the hair pin, with the hostess even mentioning losing it.

Okay, HOLY SHIT, that was the best episode of Supernatural since S5. I mean there have been some great eps scattered over the years since S5 but this one just jumped to the top of my list. That was incredible. I wish they did one ep from Baby's perspective like this every season.
Are you high? Do you just not like the show? I don't see how any fan of Supernatural could not absofuckinlutely love this ep.
Yep, I thought it was God up until that point right there. When John turned and said it like he did, the first thing I thought of was "hot damn it's Lucifer talking to Sam!!". Of course we don't know for sure, but we will find out in time.
Sam prayed to God, usually angels answer those prayers because they hear them over angel radio, maybe if the cage has been weakened somehow then could Luci have heard Sam's calls for help? He is an angel afterall. And the first vision could have been Luci clawing his way up out of the pit even if it is just through visions and not physically up and out.
This season has been great so far, this is the most excited I've been for this show in years. YEARS.

I just can't get over how they made the boys bicker in an enjoyable way. Finally. Sam filling up the beer case with smoothies, Dean acting like a child and slapping Sam's hand from the wheel and Sam was just trying to help. Sam failing to mention being infected and Dean actually not going insane, but rather blames Sam's visions on being infected and even throws in him failing to tell him about being infected. If only all the boys bickering was that enjoyable.

YES, this is what the show's been missing for oh so God Damned long, the Winchesters being brothers. The show has always been at it's absolute best when the brothers are being brothers, together, and this ep had it in spades. They even confided secrets to each other, unbelievable!!!!
I hope more of this season has this tone and comradery, because it's sorely needed and about time we get back to it and stay with it.

O yeah them sharing their dreams was so beautiful. Seeing Dean open up was surprising and then Sam doing the same thing back.

SHERIFF DONNA RETURNS — Sheriff Donna (guest star Briana Buckmaster) calls Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) for help after a horrific murder with supernatural elements happens in her town. Sam continues to have visions and asks God for help, which frustrates Dean.
Potential spoilers, including the return of a new character we saw in episode 2 of this season:
What does it mean for Supernatural‘s Dean that he and The Darkness are bound? What plans does Amara/Darkness have for him? Can one be killed without hurting the other? –DeMara
One can definitely be injured without affecting the other. “It’s not like a voodoo doll” (or “twinsies,” as Jared Padalecki jokes) “or anything like that,” star Jensen Ackles clarifies. “We will see… what exactly that relationship is” between Dean and The Darkness, Ackles adds. “I don’t think that he knows what to make of it. What it all means and how it’s all going to tie into his destiny and his future and what that means for the brothers, he’s very nervous about. Obviously, those nerves are something that he’s going to be hiding, but we will see it get fleshed out a bit.”
Supernatural‘s Sam and the Reaper — is there more to this story? –JJ
Interestingly, Dean will also be meeting Billie the reaper (played by Lisa Berry), in the fall finale. “To be honest… we have not shot those scenes yet, so I don’t know how intense it’s going to be,” Jensen Ackles said on set last week. “But I’m excited to work with her.”

Episode 4 was the best in years. Man, that was so much fun.
Pretty much makes the whole season worth it already.

The last episode might be the first in long, long, long time I can say I truly loved. The car gimmick, Sam's vision, the conversation when he woke up, the car getting more and more messy as the episode went on, the writing, the detached head comedy, the music, all of it. Top tier Supernatural episode.
God I hope this season doesn't fall off. Probably the best start since season 5.
EDIT: And the fights, I can't forget those. First time in a long while they've felt like actual fights instead of Sam & Dean just getting tossed everywhere. There was an Evil Dead quality to the action that I really enjoyed. Gotdamn what an episode. Didn't think the show had that in it anymore.

This episode was one of those that shows they still got it. At this point Supernatural would probably be better quality wise if it were a mini-series and the writers didn't need to do 22 episodes a season.

I'm like 4 episodes from finishing season 10, and even though the season had a really rocky start I actually ended up really liking it towards the end.
Looking forward to catching up on season 11.

Now that was nostalgic.
Good dialogue. Monster of the week. Interesting camera work.
Why can't I get this weekly!?!
Actually.. ignore my post. Just reread this one.

Because half the writers are grossly incompetent.
Baby was written by the same guy who wrote Fan Fiction last year. This dude gets it, and a couple of others too.
Problem is, there are like ten writers on the team.

This episode was absolutely outstanding. They killed it with the camera work. The scene with Cas speaking to Dean, and to the vacant car while Dean fought the alpha was a season high, so far.
I haven't liked Supernatural this much in a long time.

I liked some of the camera work. Just the face cam urks me. I don't know why, I just hate it when the camera is super focused on their face. It was the same thing with the other season when Sam and torturing a deamon trying to find Dean, the camera angle on Sam just annoyed me. However that's my only issue with the episode, everything else was spectacular, so no complaints. I still love the decapitation by car door.

Fan Fiction too, huh? That makes a lot of sense. Make this writer show runner, damnit!
Just watched Eps 2-4. Goddamn, this season is off to a stellar start. Also, "Baby" is hands down the best episode in a damned long time. everything about it, the dialogue, the brothers acting like brothers, the Impala, the cheesy Dean jokes.
If by some circumstance that was the last episode I'd be okay with it. Here's hoping Season 11 continues being as good as it's been so far.

It wasn't just the writing, it was the directing, how the episode was shot which immediately had me paying attention more than usual these days.

For me it's a close third behind "Yellow Fever" and "Wishful Thinking". Can't beat Dean's leg riffing to Eye of the Tiger or a teddy bear suicide. Season 4 was really the complete package. Great overall storyline with excellent fillers.
Crazily optimistic about this season though. Not a misfire yet, and if some of these fan theories pan out like they think they will, it'll easily be the best post-Kripke season yet.
No. Not really.
But then I don't consider anything that adds to the over all plot "filler."
True, it doesn't add anything to what's happening currently but it was a fantastic episode.

While I adored "Baby", my favorite filler episode of the series still remains "Nightshifter". It's true that Season 4 was a full package, S2 isn't far behind for me.
Whatever you say about the quality of the show, you can't deny that as far as "fillers' go, a big number of them was really excellent. This is one of the things that make Supernatural so special.

Filler episodes, much like the X Files, are some of the best ones of the series.

What a fantastic episode. It was perfect, been a while since I laughed this much.
YES.
I was blown away by that episode when I watched it the first time. I watched it again after I caught up and it's still amazing.

I hate watching that episode. Seeing Ronald die always causes a tearjerker. He was so likable ;_;
If it's a filler then fuck, because I thought finally we gonna see God in this season lol.
Sam and Dean meeting the God is gonna be the most exciting thing to see in a while. I don't think last season did anything for me.
Sam's face sure changed alot Oo

I think you're going to like this episode then, even if it's rather... ambiguous on the God thing.

The X-Files had a lot of great episodes, but some of its filler episodes did fall flat for me. The Cops one was a bit cringeworthy, and I didn't love the one with the kid werewolf in the trailer park.
This episode was okay. When I read the description, I thought the car would be narrating because it was supposed to be from the car's perspective. But it was only the camera angle/camera staying there.
It was a decent ploy.
I just watched the episode today, and loved the Night Moves part/Dean in general.

Agreed. I hate her. She tarnishes every episode she's in and is abysmal.
