Red Sky

This was a fairly typical episode. The team screwed something up, and they had to fix it before everyone died. Along the way, they had to deal with some religious villagers who were a pain in the butt. The big twist was the team ran into a problem they couldn’t solve by themselves. Or could they?

Malchus ranks highly on the list of most infuriating characters. He reminded of Debbie Downer from those old SNL skits. It was great to see Jack go after him. That man needed a beating, if only for his ridiculous hat.

I always like it when the Asgard show up. It’s funny to think that not all of them are as friendly as Thor. I thought the scene where Sam and Daniel watched Jack as he was talking to the wall was pretty funny. “Little gray butts?”

I also liked the way the show ended. Sometimes those loose ends are more satisfying than a perfect resolution.

Rating: 6/10

Cool, a record label! And here I was guessing you were just slacking off. Good luck with your new undertaking.

I think this was the episode where the writers were originally going to add a slightly darker ending, one where there was no miraculous rescue at the end.
