well what a season huh
to be honest the beginning of the series, i thought was very dissapointing and very hard 2 watch. i thought there would be a more dramatic entrance from sam returning from this torturing cage.
altho, even tho it was a slow start...... by the middle i was hooked and drawen as i was very intrigued about the wall death assembled in2 sams nogen!!!
the mother was also very exciting and thought more couldve been played out with her and the creatures she created, which by the way....... what has become of those new devilish beings???
the downside for me was sams break down of the wall! i would have luved 2 have seen alot more of sam remembering what had really went on from the moment he fell in2 the cage, till the moment he was brought back. i did enjoy the way they played it out tho but just didnt think it was enough.
im loving castiels betrayel of dean and teaming up with crowely and also the fact that he is now thee god!!!
the acting was as good as

God....who is it? There are so many inconsistencies with Crowley.....so many weird twists...perhaps a god in demon's clothes?

I'd bet my left arm that next season is all about Sam and Dean on a search for the O.G., that is the Original God. One thing I love about this show is that it draws consistently from it's own mythology, rather than constantly changing the rules as circumstance requires(*cough* Lost *Cough Cough*) In this case there have been hints that God is still involved throughout the series, from the prophet Chuck as a direct line to information even the angels don't know to Castiel being brought back to life.
I expect to see at least 2-3 Chuck-featured episodes next season... and any guesses as to how they will portray God?
Personally, I would love to see him played by the actor who played Godrick in True Blood.

Robert Singer directed the episode written by Eric Kripke.
What else can I say?
I feel like this season finale was great, but only because it had an awsome script and because it was directed by someone who truly knows what Supernatural is all about.
Now, the whole season wasnt that strong. I hated so many things like Samuel the dead revived uncle, Lisa's "understading" for Dean's purpose in life, Ben(Lisa's son and maybe Dean's son)& his interest in hunting, Sam's lack of a soul, Sam's wall, and Castiel's secrecy.
Now, it wasnt all horrible there were some good ideas just poorly executed:
I liked the idea of there being a Mother of All. The new monsters rising were interesting and very different, i mean Dragons! :D I also liked the idea of a war in heaven and an absent 'god', Balthazar and his hunt for souls and Crowley's ability to come up with clever remarks. That is it, I belive. Honestly, I think Balthazar was a better character than Dean this season.
Btw, Are we ever

Ok. only 1 thing wrong with this episode - Balthazar's death. I truly loved this season finale! it was so awsome compare to all the other episodes from season 6(some were good but not all). As I was watching I knew right away that It must had been written by Eric Kripke, and I looked it up and it was. =) I really love the episodes he writes! just awsome! *Bobby's knee* lol "We'll ninja our way in." - Bobby "Awesome. Yeah, until they hear your knee squeak." - Dean.

I liked the finale. I however thought the Sam story was the most interesting. It wasn't what I expected to happen exactly with him. I loved how his physical body was reacting to things that we saw in his mind such as the same song playing in the background, the smelling of whiskey while Dean was drinking it and the beam of light when Dean shined it into his eyes. I've always been a big fan of Dean however lately I find myself a little more interested in Sam.
I was sad to see Balthazar get killed though. And I would like to finally see the real "God" make an appearance. I also wonder if we will ever see the prophet Chuck again.

(clicked send by accident lol) And then the whole thing about Castiel turning on the Winchesters and not telling them the truth. what happened to Angels not having feelings-how did he see the brothers as Family when he himself said that Angels don't know how to feel like that. I don't know, I feel like this show is being slowly well ruined (like what they did to One Tree Hill) Don't get me wrong, I love this show and will still watch it because well its Jensen Ackles but I think that just because a show can go for another Season, dosent mean it shuld kinda thing.

So I've re watched this epsiode twice now and to be honest, it dosen't fell like a Season Finale. I have been a huge SPN fan now for a while and until recently it was my all time favourite show but for me this season was I don't know how else to say it but lacking really and kind of cheesy if you think about it. With the whole Sam being back from Hell and Samuel turnin gon his grandchildren and the whole hunt for the "orginal monsters". Ya the idea of their being "Orginals" is interesting, I think they could of done it more I don't know for a lack of a better word - better. Last Season for me at least was amazing (with 3 or 4 episodes that were disappointing) but this Season, I onl really enjoyed about 7 episodes and the season as a whole for me was (compared to others) terrible. I remember reading articles stating that this season was going to be more like the first 2 seasons but there was only a few that were like that. The whole "wall" thing for Sam to me was kind of chessy. And the

Usually when two character get together, their relationship needs to be messed up to "keep it interesting". Interesting that it happened on Spn for Dean and Cas :)
It didn't feel like a season finale at all. Every moment we spent with Sam until his mental twin showed up seemed like a waste of time, although the girl was nice.
I was saddened to see Balthazar killed off.
Castiel becomes God? Is anyone else expecting a show down?
Though I have to say: I agree with Cas. Dean was only willing to make up because Cas got super scary. Not that I blame him...
This seemed like any given episode from mid-season to me. For a while there I was expecting Bobby to become God, tbh.
As a regular episode: not bad/wuuut he's a god now?
As a season finale, meh. Actually, wonk-wonk.

I felt let down by this whole season. Have been a huge Supernatural fan from the beginning and this was one show that has ALWAYS delivered, getting better and better each season. Until this one that is. Many story lines were left unexplored or half done and some of the scenes made no sense and the characters seemed out of character as well. I love Castiel as much as everyone else and am so dissapointed in how his character deteriorated. Not much seems to make sense and it just feel like a bit of a mess. I really hope it gets back to its former glory.

I feel like most of the fans here on this site. I am a big Dean fan, however when Castiel came on board, his character rivals my affections (hahaha). This seasons ending took me by surprise! I really hope that they have Castiels character end up doing the right thing. And I'm very upset that he won't be in a lot of the next season! He has become a very important character on the show. And they never really went into details of what kind of "monster" the lady (blond lady that dated Bobby back in the day)was that they killed to use her blood. I love all the characters, they work really well together. It'll be interesting to see if they bring back the profit (who they alluded as God) & death himself!

I have always loved the character Dean but have found myself drawn to the Castiel character brilliantly portrayed by Misha Collins. However I was so not expecting this punch line! Loved it. "In Cas we trust"

I believe that Sera Gamble is directly responsible for the qualitative drop in season six overall. Her promotion to show runner has precipitated a corespondant drop in ratings as well as quality for SPN, and her past success in writing episodes succeeded only because she was working under Eric Kripke's guidance. Her own ideas have displayed a lack of understanding of the fundamental dynamics of characterisation that endear much of the fanbase to Supernatural in the first place. I think a petition to replace Sera Gamble as show runner with the far more talented Ben Edlund would be a major idea to start on in the SPN community.
Those last few minutes really left me speechless, I kept yelling OMG at the television. I also agree the whole Sam getting back together thing was interesting but slow.
My biggest issue is that during the entire episode Dean wouldn't give Cas a chance. he went from saying your like my brother to don't talk to me, to hey I care about you. If he had at least given Cas a chance maybe Cas would have let go of all that power after he killed Raphael and not killed Balthazar. Will truly miss all of the snark and disdain that was Balthazar. No hearing the news Cas will not be a regular next season really has me very concerned about Season 7.

I personally hated the season finale. It dragged Castiel, a much beloved character through the dirt very, very suddenly, what with his killing Balthazar and his dangerous and newfound arrogance at the end. I don't say this as a Castiel fan, though I am a BIG Castiel fan. I say this as a fan of consistency and good writing. All the way up to the penultimate episode, Castiel maintained the characteristics we learned to love about him - his loyalty, his honesty, his tendency to save Dean whenever it was needed, regardless of the circumstances. His speech to Dean about standing behing him the ONE time he asked broke my heart because it was so human and benevolent. And Dean threw it right back in his face. Given everything they've been through, everything Cas has sacrificed for them and the fact that he drops everything and comes when they need him, they couldn't show him a little faith? Maybe he was wrong, but as friends, they couldn't find a better way of telling him so than abandoning hi
hey death said he will reap god..so if dean nd sam needs to defeat cass then call death cause death is the only one who is powerful enough to do it..death said he is to reap god..but it does not mean real god right..it could be the new god..that perfectly fits...this could be good...even though i am sad they are throwing cass out of regulars...

@bbzip - I merely meant that Raphael's strong personality and presence remained the same throughout all of the forms he had taken, rather than a comment about the strength of a particular gender. After all, Supernatural has given viewers some great female characters (i.e. Ruby, Lillith,Ellen). Sorry for the mix up!
I'm excited to see how Season 7 deals with Castiel's new powers. Even after the finale, there's still a lot to think about. Bring on next fall!

wow Cast has come a long way. if he is the new God does that mean there will be a war between him and the old God? last season Death said that he would one day have to reap God. what an amazing season finale, so many questions.

GREAT! Couple of questions..? When Sam backstabbed Cas, wasn't that the "dream state" Sam? And when is Cas bringing Sam back like he said? Hmm.. Maybe we'll get the answers when the next season comes.
I hate Cas for killing Balthazar! Cas proclaiming himself as God and that they have to bow and love him. Really? Come on Cas.. He forgave Dean for not trusting him and he was the bigger man. So why now when he has all that power, why can't he be the bigger man now too?! I'm so disappointed at Cas.
Looking forward to the next season!
