I have a lot of random thoughts/quibbles:
Dean wouldn't keep his room that messy. The way we saw it that one show when they first moved into the bunker where Dean had all his guns mounted on the wall and the memory foam mattress first remembered him. That's Dean. And Sam would DEFINITELY have taken Miracle jogging with them. It would have been both their dogs (and who puts a dog dish in their bedroom?)
Yeah, stupid fight and stupid enemy to be killed by. Not really worthy of Dean's death.
I can't help but think that Sam would have called for Jack. It's Dean after all. He would break all the rules and do anything for Dean. Why stop now?
Also, why kill Dean off so quickly? it kills any chance of the boys doing a mini-series later on.
If they'd shown some grey in both their hair, like they had been at this for a while, it would have left room to revisit the Winchesters in the future. This is like a salt and burn so they can't go back. : (
I can forgive Dean being killed by a stupid, unworthy foe (I kept thinking all those stuntmen probably had masks on under the masks), a weird random death happening out of the blue was bound to happen to one of them. This just seemed kind of jerky/poorly done and too early in the show.
Heaven: I liked that Jack had torn down the walls and we got a brief nod that Castiel wasn't rotting in the empty, but being of angelic use. But I can't believe Dean's heaven is only empty roads. He could have driven through towns or been parked at motels or shown a nice little house with a picket fence and a big garage. Even with Covid-19 (Which is why I handwave away visiting with friends and family, I assume he does all that).
But I loved Sam simply appearing behind Dea in Heaven, ready to go. (I did see a woman standing on the porch when Sam was playing with little Dean, but she obviously didn't compare to his relationship to Dean). But them together and so obviously content was just lovely
Sam's makeup as an old man was so laughable, (If I hadn't already been crying). He looked like some kind of mad scientist, but I got the gist. It's a shame because it could have been better done and killed us even more.
I thought the message from J2 and the crew belonged in the wrap-up episode not this one episode.
It would have given more time/room to show the boys hunting over the years.
I thought the use of our song was PERFECT, they used so many versions of it to just brilliant effect. The words were so prophetic.
But overall, I am pretty damn happy. If it had to end, what better place than with the boys together and happy in heaven?

On the chance for a reboot -- My cynical side thinks that what was what this ending was all about. After all, Sam has left a son behind -- a son who could bring his dad and uncle back from Heaven. Huh? See what they did there?
I didn't get how Castiel could have had an influence. Did Jack somehow get Cas out of the Empty? I don't get that at all.
Yeah, Sam's old man make up, especially with the crazy hair in the Impala, was pretty bad. It seemed slightly more believable on his deathbed.
I feared tptb would do some kind of Swan Song thing where the boys were separated at the end so I am glad the boys are together in Heaven. That much is huge!

OMG the hair! Yeah that was a bit funny. The music was great. Carry On's words fitted to the montage like a fanvidder had created it and I also really loved 'Brother in Arms' for Dean's funeral. And thank you Covid for making that funeral a private affair - Sam's loneliness was so much more poignant for it.
no subject
Sam's loneliness, the big gapping hole in his heart.... UGH. I kind of wish they'd ditched one of those useless episodes and had a whole episode devoted to Sam's life. Maybe it would be too heartbreaking though. Better saved for a fic.
