I’m not so sure we should congratulate the writers for this episode. One of things I love about this show is that it does have ridiculous episodes to demonstrate that it can make fun of itself and not take things too seriously, but usually that isn’t at the expense of the plot. (Or maybe it is; the plot to ‘The French Mistake’ was pretty light and barely resolved, but I still love that episode.) But I feel like someone said, “Let’s do a LARPing episode!” So they made a LAPRing episode, and at the last minute someone said, “Should there be a point?” And apparently the answer was “No.” I didn’t hate it. It had some funny moments (and out of all the really funny moments, Dean firing a real gun at a LARPing event is actually the one that made me laugh for real), although three cuts to Dean’s reaction to two chicks kissing is maybe being a little disloyal to his character. Yeah, he’s a guy’s guy who likes that sort of thing, but really? Three times? I

Another great thing about this ep was at the end where Sam dressed up and joined in the fun. You always know Dean will have him some fun when he can, but to see Sam relax and let go was great!

I guess that I'm the only one who have something bad to say about this episode. I think that the writers have completely lost their mind. before writers can start having these kind of episodes they need to get back to basics because the past episode has been crap. it was nice to see Charlie and the ending was funny. I had enough of this season I am NOT watching it again until Castiel return or to get basic. the writers need to stow their crap and stop killing everybody of the show. I'm done I think I'm going to turn my attention to Criminal Minds.

I enjoyed it too. The sheriff at the beginning and Felicia Day made the episode for me, they were hilarious. That and Dean's facial expressions. :-) There were a couple times where it was DANGEROUSLY close to being unfunny-cheesy, but everyone pulled it off. I know Sam is bummed about Amelia, but he almost had the Soulless Sam vibe going on at times! "Today's kids, with their texting and murder." LOL

I have to say that I really enjoy these types of episodes. The humor the writers come up with and the references, do it for me.

At the beginning of the series, LARPing woud not have been a Dean thing. He definiely would have made fun of Sam forliking it or knowing about it. But at thame time it's a very Dean thing too; his Braveheart speech at the end was hilarious and true to character. He has always loved and quoted movies. Another fun episode. They seem to know when to throw a fun episode in tolighte the heavy mood. My only complaint is the lack of Castiel. He would have been hilarious in the LARPing world!
This was a nice palete cleanser after all the drama of the last couple of episodes, very enjoyable. For anyone interested in another humorous take on LARPing, Unicorn City is a fun movie that was shown in several conventions a couple of years ago and is now on Netflix.

I've been waiting for the complaints and haven't really seen any, which makes me glad. I was a bit 'eh'about another ep with Felicia Day but I was pleasantly surprised at the way this episode came off because it could have been a mess. I'm glad they are at least showing an attempt to get something of the old Dean and Sam back out in the open. They haven't had fun together in a very long time because they're constantly feeling like a liability to the other one, I think. One more than the other. So I think it was right that Dean got to have a bit more fun in this episode than a certain long, flowing haired Winchester.

I´ve enjoyed this episode a lot :) Its been great to see Charlie again, and her character was so very nicely done (and interpreted) so kudos this time for the writing! It was also a fun episode and a deserved break after last week episode (though i wouldn´t have mind a brief mention of Castiel??) but yeah, it was nice to see Dean and Sam having fun.

Loved this episode. The end scene was so hilarious....Dean's wig alone!
Maybe Sam should stop trying to live everyone else's 'normal' life, and make a normal life that fits his world? Like finding a girl whose clued into everything they know about the world. Too bad Charlie is gay...she's so fun. I loved the heart to heart with her and Dean. I could see her being a sisterly type for those too. I guess she sort of already is.

the moon queens army won, at the end when the narrater started to announce the dedication it said "to all men, women, elves.............. who fought for the queen of moon's kingdom and won"
oh and i really liked this ep, i was getting tired of the hardships and the heavy atmosphere every ep, finally they did what they do best - combine crazy a** mythology, drama, favorite characters and a good chunk of irony and comedic relief! that is what made the earlier seasons so great and i am glad they are coming back to that formula. this ep reminded me of another fav ep of mine "Monster Movie" (4x05).
