Supernatural, 4x08, “Wishful Thinking”

Episode Title: Wishful Thinking
Writer: Ben Edlund
Director: Robert Singer
Originally Aired: 11/06/2008
Grade: A-

Overall, this was a pretty enjoyable episode. I like that there was a bit of continuity in the beginning, with Sam questioning Dean about Uriel’s comment about what Dean remembered from Hell. Ideally, that thread should have connected to the wishing well story, but I really didn’t see it. The episode was still a fun stand-alone, and as I said, nice to see a bit of story continuity even so.


The giant talking teddy bear was fucking awesome, though, like something from a surreal, creepy Kelly Link story.


Still, on the whole, I'm starting to lose interest in this show, or at least the discussion of it. I find myself without much to say after most of these episodes, despite the fact that I feel like this season is greatly superior to early Season 3.
