Well, apparently Jensen is directing the first episode of Season 8, so I'm thinking that Dean's role in that episode isn't gonna be so big. It'll probably be pretty Sam-centric.

I would not be surprised in the slightest if there's some other big bad in Purgatory. I don't think it's Cthulhu, but I'd say it'd be something on a similar scale. I think seeing Eve again would be a pretty interesting development. There's a lot they could do with that line of thought. Gordon popping up again would also be rather interesting.

I'm glad you brought up the 'time' question. I'm sorta wondering if time runs differently there too. I don't think it'd be as drastic as the time difference between Hell and Earth. If they're gonna be getting Dean out of Purgatory in this season (pretty much a given), then the time difference can't be that drastic, as Dean would age while he's there... maybe. That's assuming things CAN age in Purgatory. Has it been mentioned that anything other than monster 'souls' being in purgatory before? If they don't age, then the time difference could be pretty major...
