Televisual Delights!
Oh, American telly, how delightfully you are entertaining me. :D
Supernatural
*flaps* Oh wow. I totally loved this. You know that whole meme about which shows you're watching? I've always said I'm watching the Oh, Dean Show and the Sam Winchester Is The Antichrist Show, both of which this season has been delivering on magnificently, but I completely forgot how much I love watching the Family Business Show as well, and how much I've missed it!
I was thrilled beyond all belief by Mary, I really was. SHE WAS A BADASS HUNTER! FROM A FAMILY OF BADASS HUNTERS! She's the driving force behind everything that happened to our boys, not John (oh, John), which was such a fantastic reversal of the old idea of Mary being primarily a victim. And damn, how history repeats itself, huh? I loved all the parallels they brought out between the three generations, both in terms of events and characteristics. Samuel and Deanna were splendid both (and OH HAI Mitch Pileggi!).
SPN really isn't a fic-writing show for me, but this episode is coming pretty close to changing my mind on that. So awesome! Heh, it's entirely possible I have a thing for the tragically dead parents of fantasy story protagonists.

Pushing Daisies
Oh, beloved show of crack, welcome back into my heart! Eeeeee how is this so made of SUNSHINE AND HAPPY? I have no idea, but I love it. And I love how these are all achingly real characters, written beautifully and set against this crazy world. Olive and Chuck, especially, are both MADE OF WIN, and Ned is the most adorable dork ever and Emerson brings the snark like a champion. How they continue to pull it all off is a complete mystery. I can has next episode now? (Also, Olive inna nunnery is pretty much the best thing ever, ahahaha.)
