Rewatching Criss Angel Is a Douche Bag
Welcome to “Abracadabra or Whatever: A Supernatural Rewatch Blog” with Lor and Mace!
Up today, s4e12: Criss Angel Is a Douche Bag.
“The boys investigate a series of strange deaths at a magic (as in tricks and shows) convention, and they may have met their matches in three seasoned and weathered and jaded and not-to-be-underestimated veteran magicians. It turns out that one of the trio of old friends has discovered Real Magic and is using it in a bid for immortality. Will his friends choose living forever with him or to doing the Right Thing? LOTS of parallels here between the story of the three magicians and our two brothers, weighing lifestyle choices and doing what is right vs what is easy, dying young while fighting the fight or trying for a long life. Maaaaybe the writers of the last episode should have revisited this one? *sigh*”
Below is a log of our real-time reactions as we watched. Remember that there may be spoilers for any part of SPN’s 15-season run here. Note also that the nature of our conversation is adult and thus it may contain adult language and themes.
[and we begin:]
Lor:

supernatural s4e12 criss angel is a douche bag
all right maybe you know him from the rocky horror picture show, but honestly hey i know you from spin city.
barry bostwick in the rocky horror picture show (1975) & spin city (1996) (his character was literally "the mayor", no name)
okay so he had a very small part in riverdale! but honestly he reminds me of this guy on tiktok for some reason 😂
riverdale s1e9 chapter nine: le grande illusion - alex zahara as uncle bedford
casting call for all the red haired folks to populate this cursed town
bold move having the knockoff criss angel in universe that criss angel exists, and straight up naming your episode criss angel is a douche bag. two words, apparently.
*heavy sigh* now you don't be a douchebag, dean. no homo, we got it.
DEAN
Man...hope I die before I get old. Whole thing seems brutal, don't it?
not cool. think that's enough for me today.
