Once you get over the morbid and depressing start of the episode with Kelly it certainly improves from there. Castiel is finally back and with a great story.
Castiel is a great character and one of the many special aspects of Supernatural. Sadly he has not had a very good run in the last few seasons. His character had become stale and he just tagged along with the Winchesters often being of little help in their hunts. When he met with his fellow angels nothing much came of it sadly because it was usually trivial meetings with angels with no personality who often died. Finally he has regained some relevance, power and magic that he 'graced' us with some seasons ago. He is the independent angel who has a storyline crucial to the season and the Winchesters.
The episode was great to watch. It will be interesting to see what the birth of Lucifer's child will bring about in the supernatural universe. The acting was on point as usual and had some great unexpected action like Daegon showing up out of nowhere and Castiel being empowered by the devil's son and killing Daegon with ease. Wonderful to see Castiel powerful and back in action, he certainly dominated this episode and has found his wings again.
