Supernatural (TV Series) Patience (2017) User Reviews

Way too predictable...

[gabriel-80 · 7/10 · 11 November 2018]

This episode was drenched with lazy writing and clichés. The premonitions we see at the end gets repeated once again just before they happen, 20 seconds later, I know some may have a poor short term memory, but please have some faith in the audience - we know what is going on. Sam's emotional talk with Dean at the end about the nephilem is great though, and it is always cool when they revist old characters. Get back on the horse, the monster-of-the-week episodes has to be better than this.

I don't know why the writers insist on killing women but great otherwise

This episode contains one of the best moments of season 13 when Jack and Sam bond over containing darkness within themselves. Likewise, the monster of the week story is better than average in that it is a cool twist on the wraith monster-with a creepy actor for the guest role. Everything is engaging. But I don't know why the writers feel the need to kill off every reoccurring woman character-no matter how minor or how long ago their first appearance was. The main death in this episode is not necessary.

Dean lost me here

[Aries_Primal · 9/10 · 27 October 2017]

It was great episode, and also a great start of the season. I will pass the reasons I am still watching this show, it lost some of it's charm but I started it and I will finish it. But what Dean did dissapoined me greatly. Most of the time I chose his side between him and Sam, but saying such things to the kid... Them both with Sam were raised alone, with no parents and no friends to count on, and he should know better what is to be the outsider and the freak, since they have always been like this. They killed many and saved many, and after all nobody chose what to be, when to be born and what kind to be, nobody chose his family. And after all, family doesn't end with blood.

"Patience, I said NOW!"

I realize it wasn't supposed to be funny, but it was hilarious.

Dean's behavior - completely out of character.

[EmmaAlt · 6/10 · 30 October 2017]

The episode started out good. Bringing Missouri back was a nice touch, until the all so typical "randomly killing off characters for no reason" started again. Another desperate attempt to keep the viewers on edge which has always failed immensely on the show, but for some reason, the writers keep doing it. Spoiler alert: everyone is sick of it at this point.

Besides that, the episode was okay. The story continued with Missouri's psychic granddaughter, which was quite interesting and thrilling to watch. I liked her. It was nice to have Jody back as well, Kim Rhodes is an excellent actress (not sure how to feel about the whole Wayward Daughters idea though).

I really like Sam and Jack's relationship. I'm glad that Jack didn't just go batshit crazy and that he has Sam helping him now. Sam knows what it's like to be "the monster" and to not know how to channel his powers the right way. Jack is struggling and I'm really looking forward to seeing his development this season. Just .... please don't mess it up by making Dean be the one who's going batshit crazy and scaring Jack away with his super untypical behavior against Jack. I'm actually kinda glad that Sam finally confronted Dean about this. It makes absolutely no sense! We've seen Dean change his views against monsters a hundred years ago when he met Benny. Are we really just going to ignore his character development? Who is responsible for writing Dean's lines? I'm gonna be honest, Dean is really starting to get on my nerves.

Impersonal

[shwetafabm · 6/10 · 30 July 2020]

The problem with this genre is that you get introduced to a lot of one off characters or their initial introductions that might become more. The problem is that you don't care for them and it is very hard for you to care for them due to the set-up. Such episode focused characters rarely have a hold. Us knowing Missouri from one episode doesn't make me care for her family enough. And that's the problem with this show, i just have not even been caring for the plot, its too impersonal. Also Missori's death didn't make sense if she knew especially when that leads to the monster getting to her granddaughter. As for the Jack drama it makes sense. People saying Dean is ooc, problem is the show keeps on regressing and developing him on the same points. This is exactly how he acts but its just too dumb. If he knows Jack is dangerous why would he antagonise him...
