8x08 "Hunteri Heroici" Episode Discussion
Hunteri Heroici November 28th 2012 The CW CARTOONS AREN’T ALWAYS FUNNY - Castiel tells Sam and Dean that he’s decided to become a hunter like them. Sam and Dean aren’t sold on the idea but agree to investigate a case Cas found where a man’s heart literally burst through his chest. The guys discover there has been more than one odd murder in the small town and all of them resemble cartoon deaths. Paul Edwards directed the episode written by Andrew Dabb. __________________

Crazy beginning scene….what? Garth’s house boat? I’m already sick of having Castiel back! Castiel wants to be a hunter? They don’t need him! Castiel “smelling the dead guy” Dean calling Castiel “Sherlock” flashback….oh Sam is so cute! No more Amelia….I hate her! She is so annoying! Her dad doesn't like Sam…he doesn't need his approval! Castiel being a horrible cop and Dean lets him know! She knows about the affair? The guy floating and then falling? Crazy! They do enjoy weird! I’ve had far too much of you Cass…leave! Slumber party! Black hole? Cartoon/Animation? Interesting…Don’t talk to Dean like that stupid Castiel! Castiel thinks he might kill himself? Sam’s back with the info! Living in a cartoon? Questioning the residents? interrogate the cat? ok…enough with annoying Amelia and her equally annoying father! Walk away Sam…you don’t need them!! Poor Dean! Reshaping reality? Changing the channel with his figure…that’s kind of cool! Omg!! The explosion! She’s wearing the bracelet? Castiel cured him? Cartoon doctor? Leave her Sam…you don’t need those lies! Sam has the Impala….Amelia’s father is such a jerk!! They found Fred! Sam and Castiel in cartoon land…in Fred’s mind? Fred worried about losing his mind! Poor Dean…the “bang” on the gun! at the sound effects! Sam talking to Fred about having to wake up from his dream. Fred is happy….Castiel having to report what happened. Castiel wanting to go back to heaven…Castiel wants to stay with Fred? Sam doesn't want to run anymore! Love Sam’s laugh! Sam talking about Dean…aww…so sad! I knew it!! I knew Don was alive!! Great episode…I really enjoyed it!

Love Cas in this episode, adorable, funny, and even showing some of the deeper emotional feelings than what he usually would show - Misha's acting in this one is brilliant!
Sam and Dean seems to be getting back on their normal footings, but I will always love Team Free Will trio together more than anything else, these three make each other better, not to mention J2M's chemistry is always perfection. Great fun episode that still manages to balance with the season-long-plot, well done, and I hope Cas/Misha comes back soon, I find it much more dynamic and interesting when he's around. __________________

I liked this one, very fun, all seems to be as it was hunting together except Sam constantly thinking of um...whatchacallit? oh yeah Amelia aside that snooze fest it was great, loved the Cas moments the way he is bewildered by some things and Dean explaining That bossy heaven chick is annoying, let Cas do what he must to put the whole leviathan/heaven thing behind him. Oh no's hiatus after next week, I hope it does not end with another betrayal to Dean by someone he trust.

Really enjoyed this episode! Very light and fun. The cartoon angle was priceless! Of course it would be poor Dean stuck putting up with cartoon world.
LOVED the Dean/Cas moments, they were fantastic especially the "I'll watch over you" and "talk to me" scenes. STILL DO NOT CARE EVEN A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SAM AND HIS GAME OF PLAYING HOUSE! Just as the episode was getting good, oooh snore time while we sit through one of Sam's flashbacks. It probably answers the question who was watching outside Amelia's house though...it was probably Don. ...Don for the love of Pete! Take Ameila and run off to the furthest point of the earth, never to be seen or heard from again! Dean/Benny next episode! Oh I almost forgot...best moment..."Let's go hunting wabbits"..."I don't think you pronounced that correctly" __________________

Please please please let Amelia be some figment of Sam's imagination - the orderly mentioning people hiding in their own heads, and then we get a flashback? Please please please. It would explain so much. Maybe Sam couldn't look for Dean because he was in a mental hospital? I'm kind of grasping at straws here but I'm desperate for any explanation about Sam and his year off

Just watched the episode. I was really looking forward to watch the comic/trash 8th episode, like every year xD
Epic end with "that's all folks" lol PS: I hate the countless flashbacks about sam and amelia, just hate them. All that blur makes my eyes burn. PPS: I wanna see more crowley. |

I both LOVED and LOATHED this episode... Loved the General Plot, The Dean/Cas bits were Awesome!
But I Seriously did not care for the Sam flashbacks. The story doesn't interest me... and I find that "fond memory" filter they use annoying. The Sam flashbacks ruined it for me. But The Cas bits probably outweighed the Sam bits in my mind |

The episode was a mixed bag for me.
My favorite part were actually the Sam flashbacks. I don't care for Amelia but they gave a lot of insight into what Sam's mindset was. Clearly the message they were trying to hit home was Sam was running from his reality. That reality was losing Dean. He simply could not deal because he lost Dean one too many times so he ran and went into avoidance mode. Anyone notice how he called the Impala John's car? Or how he was hesitant to say opening those beer bottles reminded him of Dean? He can't bare to associate anything with Dean so he tries not think about it at all. This is why the relationship with Amelia didn't last and never will. They were using each other as life rafts, simply something to cling on to to remain sane. They were each other's escapes from their own problems and I think Sam finally truly realized that this episode. It was a big step for him. We don't know why Sam left Amelia but it wasn't because of Dean. Remember Dean couldn't get a hold of him? Sam went to the cabin after he left Amelia because it was a familiar place and Dean happened to be there. He may have realized reality catches up to you even then. Of course this episode also lends credence to the theory that Amelia isn't real but I don't think this is the case. The episode was funny in parts but I thought it would be funnier. I have grown tired of seeing clueless Cas when it comes to all things human. It was funny at first but not anymore. I am beyond annoyed that Sam isn't telling Dean what he went through while he was gone. We are seeing it all in flashbacks but Dean has no clue and Dean isn't making an effort to understand either. I am getting impatient. And it annoys me further because Dean is willing to listen to Cas but not Sam. Also, Sam and Cas need to have a conversation already. Cas keeps talking about to Dean how he has a lot to make up for but Sam is never present during the conversations. Cas is the one who nearly destroyed Sam but yet he has yet to apologize to him for any of it. The only time he did was when Sam was crazy in the nut house and was barely lucid. This is beyond frustrating. I don't know, this season has been a letdown so far. I hope it will pick up soon. __________________

I liked the episode! I thought it was cool to see a lighthearted epsiode too! I loved the line Dean said "let's have a slumer party & braid Sam's hair! I'm starting to wonder if Ameila is real or if he Sam was ever in an relationship with her maybe he met her but they didin't really date. Something seems esp since Sam said living in a dream world and then have to face reality! Something is def up with his storyline. I just can't place my finger on it yet. Team Free Will had some good funny moments overall in this episode!

I really identify with Castiel's character so I'm glad to see he's back and part of the main story again. |
