Supernatural: Huh?

What can I say? The premiere episode was a bust. The first five minutes alone had me scratching my head. First they're in the church watching Lucifer rise, then they're in a plane watching Yosemite Sam, then we see them in some car driving somewhere. Ummmm, huh? I don't get it. You have two hot boys stuck in a room with Lucifer's ray of light and the best you could do was put them in a plane that was about to crash? But then you realize your mistake and think putting them in some fancy car is the answer. Yeah, I still don't get it.

The rest of the episode wasn't a heck of a lot better. While Sam and Dean are trying to fix this huge mistake we encounter the mixed-up prophet, an obsessed fan, psycho Meg, possessed Bobby, evil Zacariah and badass Cass. Meanwhile, Lucifer is doing his best to secure a vessel and doing a pretty good job.

One good thing I have to say about this ep is that they got the casting right this time. Meg was right on, sadly that body was tossed aside, and the vessel had that perfect combination of lost soul meets evil.
After an entire ep of Dean letting Sam off the hook, I'm glad he finally addressed the fact that nothing is fine, including their relationship. I mean really, if your brother helped bring back Lucifer wouldn't you be a little peeved?

There were a few funny moments and some good scenes, but otherwise, there wasn't much that was great about this ep. Like the season finale, it fell a little flat.
