Hell of a night for the CW.
God returns and wants Metatron to help write his autobio while Amara terrorizes a town.
Edit: ^Shit Phon summed it up better than I did lol

Wow. Just wow. That episode was exactly what I've been waiting for, for a very long time. That was superb. It might even be better than what I wanted. I even love the way it ended, that was damn beautiful. I think I was almost shedding a tear.
I don't know guys, but I think I like S11 more than S5. And I can't believe I'm saying that seriously.....

It isn't over yet. They can still shit the bed. I doubt that they will, but there is still that chance they might.
But, if they stick the landing, this might be the GOAT season.
EDIT: We need another thread title change I think. I dunno to what exactly, but an episode like that deserves some more attention.
It'll be in the running that's for sure. I think S11 has lower lows than S5 but this most recent episode is better than anything in S5, even Swan Song. If they can nail these last couple of episodes then I'll have to give it to S11.

What an episode. I've never been a big fan of the idea of Chuck as God, but dammit, they made it work and I think a lot of that has to do with them using conversations with Metatron to do it. Just really powerful stuff. The final sequence in particular might be the most emotional moments of the show since Bobby died.
So the way Metatron reacted to those last couple pages... God is definitely biting it this season, right? I'm guessing he sacrifices himself to take out Amara for good.

7 damn seasons. It was worth it.
This episode is easily in the top 5 of the best ones in the entire series.
Speechless.

Huh.
When Chuck disappeared way back in the S5 finale, I remember wondering if the implication was supposed to be that he was God. But as time passed, I started to think that I was probably crazy, probably remembering it wrong, that there was no real reason to think that.
And then... well, this episode happened.
Interesting.
Edit: Also this episode inspired me to go look some stuff up about past episodes on the Supernatural Wiki and I've realized that I remember absolutely jack shit about most of this show's run.

This season has been really good, but this might be one of my favorite episodes in its entire run.
That was just on another level from what I've expected of the show for years.

all i asked for was confirmation. and although they really went to a roundabout way of explaining things, we have somewhere to go from here. kinda fucked that god wouldnt take responsibility for his own fuck ups though. curious to see where they are gonna go from this.
also. i didnt know that there was a theory that charlie was god.

First off, I loved that God wasn't taking responsibility for fuck ups. It just made the situation that much more fucked up.
And second, where the hell is the Charlie was God theory? I never saw that one.
i intentionally skipped over charlie episodes, but /tv/ seems to be cheering that charlie fans got owned. im not gonna delve any farther into the supernatural fandom than that

It's going to happen.
Next season could have real tension if he does. No more continues for Sam and Dean.

Yeah. If God buys it and with Death gone, the brothers are on their last lives with no real backup.

Oh my god it really feels like this is the episode we've been waiting for for the past 5 years.
That was actually incredible.
This kinda makes me wish the series was coming to a close so it could end on this magnificent high note. Anything after this is just gonna feel weird.

God is definitely toast at the end of this.

I have a feeling God will die.
And if that happens I would love Death to be there even though he is thought to be dead because of Dean..... it would just tie back into season 5 when he said he would eventually reap God.

Yes and no. I mean, weren't there (well till this episode) no more back ups for Sam and Dean? Or are we asuming that God still helped them both this whole season?
CASTIEL: You got what you asked for, Dean. No paradise. No hell. Just more of the same. I mean it, Dean. What would you rather have? Peace or freedom?

Full circle, y'all.

Given his attitude, I don't get why he kept bailing Sam and Dean out.

So was Chuck writing about the future or writing the future with his books?

I must be the only one who came out feeling "eh, was alright". I dunno. It was all well done and everything, I just couldn't... I dunno, wasn't invested in it at all.
Of course apparently I was also the only one who thought that talking animal episode was putrid, because all I saw online was people gushing about it.

Oh My God
Awesome Episode.
Chuck played it perfectly. And that ending was awesome.
Love it. A series that keeps delivering in it's 11th season. Thank You Eric Kripke.
And the call back to the Amulet. Amazing.

Maybe it's due to the fact that they finally showed God for real. That's a turning point in the series, 11 seasons with the famous guy hiding and now he's there revealing himself. This either breaks or makes the season/show.
I'm afraid they'll ruin it with killing God by the end of the season.

Chuck being God is anticlimactic because I already took that as certainty a long time ago.
I like the idea that Death faked his own demise so that the Winchesters would stop dragging him into everything.
The implication was that he was writing the future.
He always seemed to like humanity and was extremely familiar with them given his love for stories.

I think Metatron explicitly stated before that he preferred humanity to angels? Atleast that's always the impression he gave of, that humans were so...what's the word...not random but...that they were unpredictable unlike angels IIRC.
So Metatron being in the dumps and finally confronting God, and this all comes out, yeah I feel that he was legitimately batting for humanity and not just bullshitting.

The song he sings at the end mentions a farewell and talks about how you'll call his name and he won't be there. I think the implication is that God will sacrifice himself in some way.
If not a death then something like it to the point that he won't be around anymore.

It could have been sung mockingly. I mean, he was never there to begin with during the Winchester Saga, and there's no point in starting now?

The ending was very effective.
a lot of beings seem to favor humanity over other creatures for some reason or another. dick roman favored humans over demons.

Big fan since season 1 wow first 10 mins I was glued to the screen. Amazing so many long time questions have been answered in one episode.
It has to be his death otherwise who cares? He's been MIA for over 2 thousand years. Him disappearing again won't mean anything.
Also, amazing episode. Amazing. I loved it.
