What a waste of time in a season that's already so short.
Incoherent mess of a monster. If he's supposedly kept alive through
'weird' science but science nonetheless, why wouldn't shooting him,
stabbing him or running him down with an SUV kill him?
Was that Steven Williams covering the by now too familiar role of
convenient exposition source? At least he's not some blond teeny
female. But it would be interesting if he was set up as Dean's new love
interest. Any bets on how long he's going to last?
Here's a hint, Kripke: When introducing new characters, don't try to
make them more extreme than Sam and Dean. Make them the normal ones,
and let the boys - already angsty, driven, haunted - bounce off them.
The only good out of this mess is the death of Bela, and even that is
cheated. No blood, no screams, and a pathetic attempt to 'explain' her
as the misguided victim of abuse. Please, you couldn't just let her be
evil and selfish? No, she's another woman as victim.
Really disappointed.
