Okay, not happy with Proboards at the moment. They ate my entire fucking post.
Anyhoo, lots of Dean torture (and Jensen jazz hands), apparently by different people. The promo is cut to make the last two episodes look Deancentric. I doubt this. They've faked us out this season with the promos before and Dabb has shown zero interest in Dean.
There's a hint (the lock of hair) that Rowena gets taken out. If so, I will be pissed. Too much fridging of female allies this season. Take out some damned men for once, show. And I don't mean Adam "He was a woobie for five minutes" Fergus, either. Lord, they've moped more over him than they probably ever will over Eileen and he really wasn't that sympathetic.
Looks like Jody survives Mary's attack. She's in a later scene with Sam.
Also looks like the Brothers "work" with the Twat (albeit she's in cuffs) to get out of the Bunker. Barf.
I'm all for Lucifer doing clean-up on Aisle Britannia and giving that entire storyline a dirt nap before he's permanently written out, but the Winchesters need to deal with all the LoL with speaking parts still aboveground personally, first. No Lucifer ex machinas for the likes of the Twat, Retch, or Henchbitchstress. You don't make me suffer through this Chuckawful storyline an entire season for no damned payoff, show.
Far, far too much of Kelly musing over her baby bump. Has this show ever given us a more useless recurring character than her? It's as if they thought Daphne was a good idea.

Promos have been cut before to fool us into thinking we are getting Dean in the episode. The only reason I am even slightly hopeful is Jensen said he liked 22. Didn't say anything about 23 though that I know of. I expect Super Sam. Why would they change.

The photos for 12.22 indicate Dean has the A storyline for it.

If you're not writing posts on mobile I'd download an addon like Lazarus.
The two hours is supposed to sound good, or I assume it is. I'm mainly dreading two hours of Dabb's doldrums in a row.

Eh. Not their best.
It doesn't really matter what they say they're going to do. Granted, a lot of the problem last season was that the two mytharcs were awful. But even good ideas aren't enough when the writing is this awful. They need new showrunners and new writers.

I guess they don't have much to show since filming doesn't start for another month. But yeah, it's not especially gripping.
I'm not sure what all those knobs are supposed to represent - doors to alternate universes? And that pin the crew gets every season is supposed to reflect the upcoming storyline. Maybe the demonic hand splitting the Impala is also implying alternate universes.
I wonder if the brothers will start hopping universes looking for Mary. Doing "Watchtower" type of AUs would be too expensive but the writers could stick to "French Mistake" type of AUs to keep down the cost. It would be one way to bring back dead characters and explore a lot of different "what if" scenarios.

But even good ideas aren't enough when the writing is this awful. They need new showrunners and new writers.They definitely do need a talented and skilled showrunner, which the show is certainly lacking. As for the writers, I'd keep Yockey and Glynn, maybe Berens too as I thought he did good with his last episode. The rest of them, yeah, really need to be let go.

A lot of people speculated about similar reunions with dead characters in the Purgatory storyline. Look how that turned out.
