Supernatural: The Real Ghostbusters

While some of the comedy fell a bit flat, overall I was happy with this one.  The best part of this episode was the fake hunt in which dozens of Sam and Dean's were searching for fake clues, interviewing fake witnesses, and speaking to fake ghosts.  These are the kind of inside jokes that only a terrific show in its fifth season can pull off.  

Besides that, any episode with the prophet Chuck is a winner in my book.  Especially an episode in which Chuck admits that he has no marketable skills and needs to keep writing the Supernatural books in order to feed himself.

When the Supernatural super-fan gave Sam a critical piece of information about the missing Colt in a seemingly light hearted throw away episode meant to reaffirm our heroes strength comes from each other I was reminded of Jonathan giving the Scoobie gang the key to defeating Adam in the terrifically comical and otherwise throw away episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer "Superstar".  I feel comfortable writing such a ridiculous sentence in this space because my Supernatural posts are the least read on Sensyden's Sounding Board which is saying something considering it has the readership equivalent of "Tim's Terrible Posts About Tuesday from Timbuktu".

Other than the Colt clue, Chuck's mysterious benefactor the "Swede" could possibly come into play in a future episode.
