Cool, it's like 'Back To The Future' but with Caldwell/Skinner in it. Can't wait.

I really enjoyed this one. It threw Dean for a loop to find out what side of the family the 'hunting' gene came from. Not to mention their names.

I absolutely loved the episode and it was great to find out about the Winchester background Smile

and where their names came from.

Loved the part where Dean thought his Mum Marys a babe and said he was definitely going to hell - again!! for that....

Also the part where Dean was telling Mary that no matter what she hears on November 3 1983 to not get out of bed brought a tear to my eye, esp. when Dean starts to cry Sad 2

I am so looking forward, once again, to next weeks episode Cheer

I thought that Mitch was absolutely amazing in the role of Samuel, before and after the demon entered him. Although the kiss scene at the end was just plain creepy cause we knew that Mary was Samuel's daughter. Shocked

Yep, absolutely brilliant and now Dean has to stop Sam taking the path that he's been travelling. Shocked

I'd say that there is some trouble ahead for our boys.

Watched it today, it was so "Back to the Future" that the cafe scene was excatly the same as when Mary went back to 1956 and meets his dad in that cafe, I fell down laughing it was wonderful

I thought when Dean opened the door and walked in that it was the same as the BTTF cafe and then he sat down along side that bloke and, and, and, and...... great stuff, plaudits to McG

As Stargirl said. I like the scene where Dean is seeing his mum for the first time and says.

"Dean, wherever you are, our mum is a babe. I'm going to hell for that, again."

I cracked up.

Loved every minute of this episode!

John and Mary were back in 1973 were good looking...and loved Dean's comment when he saw his mum at this age...I too laughed out loud! It was also interesting to find out that John was just an ordinary guy with an ordinary job like everyone, and Mary was the next generation hunter.

I also liked how we got to see what the Yellow-Eyed Demon was up to 10 years before he went around finding those 'special children' and making them his own for the future. I couldn't believe that it was Mary who made the deal with the YED. Though I suppose it was the only way she could bring John back. Though in the end it was poor Sam who also got the bad end of the stick. If only she hadn't gotten in the way that fateful night in Sam's room...

I am sure any X-Files/Stargate fans would have been happy to see Mitch Pileggi as Mary's day. Once I heard the voice I knew who it was.
