Supernatural, Season 12, E07 and E08

Frankly, I don't get Lucifer. I just don't. Why is he so obsessed with God? I am not sure how many children would want their parents around all the time. And he is an arch-angel, whatever that means. So why is he so upset that God isn't around 24*7. Hell, He is hardly around for us humans, if whatever is happening on earth is anything to go by. Do you hear us complaining? Then what's the big deal? Grow up man! If not, take your battle to the heaven and fight it out with Daddy once and for all. As if life isn't miserable enough for us mortals we have the arch-angel on our back. Whatever the case, I was happy to see the end of Vince Vincente. The guy used to creep me out thoroughly. By the time episode 7 ended, I found myself agreeing with Dean. The Winchesters along with Crowley and Castiel just didn't seem to have it in them to stop Lucifer. Wonder if he managed to take that fossilized angel feather with him.

I almost fell off the chair laughing when episode 8 showed Lucifer possessing the US President. That doesn't sound as bad as Donald Trump becoming the Prez, does it now? :-) For once, the British seem to have a solution for something. But a device capable of expelling an angel or demon from their vessel? Isn't that the stuff that X-Files were made up of? I almost expected special agents Mulder and Scully to make an appearance. But my happiness that Lucifer was back in the cage didn't last long. Why didn't the Winchesters ask Castiel to wipe the memory of the Secret Service? And why couldn't Rowena or Crowley abort Kelly's baby instead of asking Castiel to persuade her to do it?

Guys, please, don't ruin the rest of the season by making the Winchesters rot in prison and Crowley + Castiel chase after Kelly.

And finally, a note for Crowley - Sam looks cute in flannels. Period. :-)
