Supernatural -- "Criss Angel Is A Douche Bag" -- 01/22/09

"Criss Angel is a Douche Bag"
Spoiler:
A mysterious death draws Sam and Dean to a town full of old-school magicians. Their investigation leads them to Charlie, Jay and Vernon three friends who were famous magicians in their day but have now been replaced by flashier, younger magicians. One of them has made a deal to acquire real magical powers, but the price was extremely high. Sam and Dean must figure out a way to reverse the spell before others are harmed.

Is this a for real title of the episode? If so, I might have to start watching this show.

Absolutely great title. Only an episode of Supernatural could have a title like that.

I clicked on this thread to make the exact same comment. It sounds like a South Park episode title.

Okay... Sammy was talking with Dean like Buffy... trying to tie it all up so they genuinely can win. Very fun concept.

Jared Padalecki in the new Friday the 13th... too bad the trailer already gives the mother away. WTF?!?!

Can anyone tell me which tarot card it was at the end? The stupid CW logo in the lower right corner was so big I couldn't make it out.

I really hate obnoxious station logos (especially when they're enlarged to fit in an advertisement)

This episode definitely exceeded my expectations.

Can't wait for next week.

I was wondering the same thing. Fucking "13-fear is real" bullshit.

Anyway, good episode.

Gave away the mother? It's not a secret. Everybody knows that Jason's mom is the killer in the original. If you didn't then you should have seen the movie sometime in the past 29 years. Anyway, the remake is not a remake of only part 1. From what I've read, it's a retelling of parts 1-4. I'm assuming there will be a flashback of Jason's mom killing people, but the majority of the film is Jason killing everybody.

Yeah... no kidding. What are the odds that the logo would cover up the exact spot where those words were?

^I was pissed about that too... CW has the worst logos... if you advertise a show while I'm watching a show, it's not going to make me want to tune in...it makes me want to not watch out of spite. Very decent episode with a pretty cool plot. Not as much witty banter as usual but still pretty good.

That logo thing was damn annoying.

This ep wasn't very good, IMO. The pacing was slow, the monster/threat wasn't very compelling and even the bits with Ruby didn't add anything we hadn't seen before.

Also, it was kind of odd that the final scene in the bar seemed to be directed squarely at Dean, as a possible glimpse into his future, yet somehow it convinced Sam that "I don't want to be doing this when I'm older."

Dude - the target audience for ticket sales for this is an age group that was not born when the original came out. It is very, very likely that the majority of the kids that will see this in theaters know about the original but never actually saw it. So to them, it is like a secret. Anyway who cares? It is likely suck anyway.

I'm so ready to get back to the main storyline. This episode was pretty useless. The best thing about it was the title. At least Ruby made an appearance.

When is the damn CW show going to get off its ass and get shows up online quicker. I missed this show due to conflict and now I can't watch it!

They should do a future episode where a demon tortures people by making them watch this episode. I didn't think it was ever going to end.
