2x08 "Crossroad Blues" Episode Discussion

Crossroad Blues
Episode #2.08


DEAN LEARNS THE PAINFUL TRUTH ABOUT HIS FATHER'S DEATH - When two highly successful professionals die after claiming to be haunted by hellhounds, Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) investigate the local dive bar and discover it sits upon a site where a deal-making demon has been making people's dreams come true in exchange for their souls. Dean summons the demon to exorcise it but is horrified after it reveals the painful truth about John's death and tempts Dean by offering him the one thing he wants more than anything - his father.


Sera Gamble wrote the episode directed by Steve Boyum.

Thanks! For anyone who's interested.

Preview for the Thursday's episode over at the CW website.

Make sure the "director's cut" tab is highlighted orange.
Scroll down. It's titled

This is a very promising episode. Should be full of angst and I can't wait to watch it. I'm wondering if Dean gets a deal with this demon and Sam finding it out. It'll be a very interesting crossroad for the brothers.

Pay attention the commercials if you're watching it on the CW....Jared and the new guy from Smallville will be doing a vidio game commercial near the end of Supernatural. (why can't it be Jared and Jensen? )

This episode will kill me!

Haha. I thought it was pretty hilarious when the demon-chick made some comment to Dean about him being a hottie and he gave her this look like, "SHUT THE F UP!" The more interviews I watch, the more he, as in Jensen Ackles, seems to be annoyed at the fact that poeple only seem to be watching since there are cute guys on the show. Well, I sure ain't. If Dean wasn't such a funny character, I'd stop watching in a sec.

Anyway. Rant over. I really like what they did with the demon-deal that John made. I like how there were reprecussions for making the deal with the demon--and I love how it's screwing with Dean's head. Very nice philosophical questions (granted, in a totally unrealistic reality, but still).

And the pepper thing! Pepper lining the doorway instead of the salt. That cracked me up! "I think you used the wrong shaker." Hahaha. Good stuff. And Dean accusing Sam of being jealous about not being a fugitive. Hehe.

Also, I was pleased to see the return of the Impala. Now that its back, all is well in the world again.

i thought this was a great episode tonight. the whole thing w/ the blues music and the deep south hoodoo was cool, i find that stuff to be interesting. it was tough to see Dean realize what his dad had done.

of course i loved all of Deans snarky little comments. like the one in the beginning when he told Sam that he bet the dog could hump the crap out of his leg. ... then when he went to the animal rescue place, and came out w/ the chicks myspace address and he didn't know what myspace was. 'what is that, like a porn site?' ... c'mon my little Dean, you need to be a little more in the know.

Jared was really good in this episode as well. it was funny when he was in the house w/ the Evan guy and he heard the dogs, he quickly jumped into the circle w/ the guy. he was just as scared.

as much as i enjoyed the "Soon" thing at the end, it made me sad too knowing that we're in for the long hiatus. ... but according to that promo, at some point Dean will be telling Sam what John told him in the hospital.



oh. and that video game thing was funny. even with a broken arm, Jared still beat Justin ... next time i'm going to try it left handed and blindfolded. how hot did he look in that toboggan?

When are the new episodes starting again...I heard Dec 7th? but the soon thing seems like we're in for a really long wait.

Tonights episode was just amazing!

Sammy jealous that he's not listed on the feds site! Hee! that was so cute.
Dean not knowing what myspace was! Hee!
Dean going to kick down the door and Sam stopping him!

but then it got sad. ...the question is...is John really in some hell demension or is the demon just taunting him. Wouldn't the salting and burning of John's bones have done something to help prevent that? ...and Oh My Gosh! the look on poor Sammy's face when he asked Dean if Dean really considered making the deal with the demon to bring John back! It broke my heart! ....Doesn't Dean get that to Sammy he's the most important thing in the world? Even when John was around.

LOVED the music in the episode!

Another great ep! Very interesting with the whole summoning the demon. So glad Dean didn't make the deal in the end but he really did consider it. And Sam looked all worried. Hope they can work through all the repercussions of John's death since Dean feels guilty.

So sad we have a little hiatus but can't wait for the upcoming stuff.

OMG i totally agree that look was so heartbreaking Sam looked so upset that Dean considered actually making the deal.. i really wanted Sam to say something to Dean like even though their dad sacrificed himself to save Dean that he was glad that Dean was still alive or something like that b/c i really think that's true even though Sam misses John i think he would of been more upset if Dean was dead..

Damn that demon chick that made the deal with Dean at the end was smokin' hot. I mean seriously, she looked absolutley gorgeous. Dean was lucky to make out with her. I'd make a deal with her too, if ya know what I mean . Hell if I got her into the car, we wouldn't get out for a veeerrry long time. Oh yeah.

phew... I'm breathless! Just finished watching the epi
So much went on that episode, that I just can't deal with it right now.. Better watch it again later so it'll all hopefully clear up...
Loved the scene in cafeteria, Dean is so precious And Sam too, harmless innocent Sam
And ITA with Bee, Dean's just gotta realize that he must think about Sam too! I bet that he always does, in a way, but still the look on Dean's face when Sam asked him about making the deal.. and that endless sadness in Sam's eyes when Dean just cranked up the music and kept driving
The boys are just killing me...

Next weeks episode is going to be wicked!
