Supernatural Episode Review: Hammer of the Gods
Episodes, Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, Pink Ray Gun, Reviews, SPN, Supernatural April 27th. 2010, 5:38amMy review of the Supernatural episode “Hammer of the Gods” is up at pinkraygun.com. Enjoy!
An excerpt:
“And I did like that Dean notices that Sam was uptight, and encourages him to unpucker and try to relax for once. And best of all, that Dean reiterated that he still was keeping the faith and wasn’t giving up. (He does this with some marvelous eye contact, making sure that Sam understands exactly what he’s saying.) Dean thinks they have earned the right to eat all the pie they can manage. As for Sam, he urges that they go back on the road. He’s reverted back to being the sensible one, the way he was in Season One, only this time around, his caution is tempered with experience, so what used to come across as sulky complaining, now comes across as good advice. Which neither one of them follows, leaving them stuck in the hotel.”
Naughty Sam…Texting at the table…
Getting attacked by the hotel…
Amidst the tumble of the gods…
Hiding out from their own story…

I am not able to post comments this morning, at Pinkraygun.com. So, I thought I would post my list here instead. I was so excited that I finally had a moment free and I could post my comments on a Tuesday morning for once but it wouldn’t work for me. 🙁
Anyway,you know this was one of those episodes that I really enjoyed, at the time I watched it, but it didn’t stay with me.
I did laugh a lot and I was grossed out…many times…but after the awesomeness of ‘Point of no Return’ this episode was mostly ‘fluff’ and very little substance. I had so much fun putting my list together last week but I did not enjoy it as much this week. Oh, but there were moments of goodness, though.
1). First and Foremost – Our brothers were together and it felt easy and warm and right. On solid ground. And Sam was worried about his brother getting burned out. Aww!
2). The next horseman was introduced and let me just say ‘gross’! But…it is ‘MAX HEADROOM”. This is
going to be good. 🙂
3). The ‘Trickster’ was in the episode. Oh how I love him!! He and the Winchesters have such great chemistry. I was so sorry to see him die. Seriously, I have to stop caring about characters because they always seem to die.
4). Holy Crap!!! Lucifer killed his brother.
5). “Can’t or Won’t” Holy Crap again!!!! I really hope this is not foreshadowing. 🙁
6). The return of the EMF
7). Dean was acting like a kid again so that means he is feeling better.
8). “Please let this be tomato soup”
9). The Elysian Fields reference
10). The creepy hotel
11). Dean’s excitement over chocolate. 🙂
I can’t believe we are in the home stretch now.. Only three more episodes left in Season 5.
“Carry on my Wayward Son….There will be peace when you are done….lay your weary head to rest…don’t you cry no more”
I don’t know why but I was thinking about the “Dark Side of the Moon” episode and this thought just popped into my head “God helps those who help themselves”. Sam and Dean need and will find it within themselves to end all of this and they will do it their way together. They will find peace when they are done.
Take care

PS. As always..your review was ‘spot on’. 🙂
