Review for 5x13 'The Song Remains The Same'

Sorry, I'm late to the party. I don't really have any excuses, other than the fact that I had troubles to focus on writing these last couple of days. :)

So, just when I was about to write S5 off, the show sends the unexpected gift of The Song Remains The Same our way, and I am immensely grateful to see that the writers remembered how to do it right. The episode was chock-full of Winchester goodness and successfully managed to achieve the rare combination of mytharc driven plot with in depth character exploration. The excellent script by Sera Gamble and Nancy Weiner, combined with outstanding acting and an atmospheric setting, made for great forty minutes of television. Of course The Song Remains The Same raised the bar on the episodes that follow considerably. I just hope the team can keep this level of quality up for the rest of the season.
