I don' t know if this happened to anyone else, but the reveal of Nick was spoiled for me! In the first commercial break, there was a clip of Sam asking Nick about Michael than it cut to a TV spot for the new Halloween movie. This was obviously a cross promotion, but how or why on earth was it shown before that point of the premiere!? As for the episode itself, I thought it was okay. I only hope that ALTMichael's possession of Dean is short-lived as I feel the focus on Sam alone (as opposed to both brothers) would change the dynamic of Supernatural in the meantime even if it's only temporary. Not to say that the dynamic hasn't already drastically changed due to the addition of the Apocalypse World survivors as now I worry it seems there are too many cooks in the kitchen with Sam basically having a small army of hunters to command as seen in the episode.
