Dead Men don't wear Plaid (spoilers)

[Jesse Jackson]

How warped is my perception of happiness in the Supernatural world that I made a note while watching the show, "well at least Bobby's experiance with his Zombie bride wasn't tragic."   I'm thinking that the Sheriff lost her husband and her child again, others were killed and all Bobby had to endure was killing his wife again, he never saw her turn.    That's a pretty low bar for happiness.

It was good to have new Supernatural on the DVR!

Yes, it was good to have Supernatural back after the long hellatus.

Best line of show - "She's the love of my life. How many times do I have to kill her?"

That was the saddest line, my favorite funny line was Dean saying "Another Horseman, must be Thusday."

I liked the back and forth between Sam and Dean and the Sheriff (Fargo!) the first 2 times they met up with her - first when she totally blows open their FBI cover, and then later when Dean says 'here's the dead guy who killed that man" and she counters that they can't shoot the zombie in the street, and Dean's reply was "he's a zombie" and the zombie says "I'm a taxpayer."

I also really liked Sheriff Fargo, in a different series I would pull for her and Bobby to get together (after she's had time to grieve) but in Supernatural World, we know that won't happen.

5-15 Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid

...i can't say this was one of my favorite eps  ...little things just kind of bothered me

...it just seemed that i couldn't make it seem like the story "could" happen as the town was just too casual with dead people coming back to life...it was too farfetched that everyone just accepted dead people living amongst them

..also i (think) i remember seeing Bobby's wife in a flashback and she was a different actress...and how come Sam and Dean never knew her as they've known Bobby all their life ?

...Bobby the town drunk ?? ...NO WAY !!

...i sure didn't like seeing Bobby turning on Sam and Dean with the gun and threatening them ...it just felt wrong

...and the fight in the junk yard felt all wrong too ...why were all the Zombies converging there for a showdown?

The actress was not the same actress from Dream a Little Dream.  In that episode we learned Bobby became a hunter after his wife got possessed and he had to kill her since he didn't know how to exorcise a demon back then. 

In season 1, when they first go to Bobby's house, he's never met Sam before, and Sam is awed by Bobby's book collection.  Sam and Dean didn't know Bobby in childhood imho.  It was only retconned later, in season 3, that they knew Bobby in childhood (in very SPN Xmas), so "uncle Bobby" could give Sam the amulet that he gave to Dean. 


I found the ideas very believable that if a mother lost her child she'd believe just about anything to get him back.  Same with Bobby and his wife, especially in his current state. 

The Show definitely established that Bobby drank a lot after Dean went to hell, and then he cleaned himself up.  I bet he slid and has been doing a lot more drinking since the wheelchair and start of the apocalypse too.

...i agree, the people who got their loved ones back would be accepting, but not everyone else in the town, they would be freaking out and calling CNN

...yes Bobby had been a drunk (and quite recently, not his whole life)...but i can't see him down at the local Tavern being obnoxious causing problems interacting with the townsfolks...to me he would've been lost in depression, on his own, at his own house
