Supernatural: Swap Meat (2010)
Season 5, Episode 12
8/10
Friday the thirteenth
9 December 2011
Warning: Spoilers
It is no surprise for a show as crazy as Supernatural to go all Friday the thirteenth and do a body swap episode. This may be not my favorite episode, since I either wanted a Sam\Dean body swap (I really don't think it would be of any service to the show but it still would be cool to watch) or I wanted to see Jared playing Gary pretending to be Sam. However Jared seemed to have fun playing Sam in the body of a frustrated 17 year old virgin, yet I can't say the same about Jensen. The writers failed to give Dean much to do except reacting to fake Sam's abnormal behavior, and it frustrated me that it took him that long to know there is something wrong with his brother. (OK I know he excluded daemon or angel possession because of the tattoo and the sigil but there are a dozen other entities that can take the shape of Sam, beside it only took Sam two minutes to know a shape shifter was pretending to be Dean back on the "Skin" episode) but I think Dean was too busy enjoying Sam's behavior and their sudden share of interests to notice that the real Sam might be in trouble.

Applaud to the casting crew for bringing in Sarah Drew, she was amazing in her part but I didn't like Colton James much.
