really funny that they never explicitly gave us a variation of deancascrowley in the show but they DID give us relationships that paralleled it with other characters. like oh dean slept with a fallen angel and tried to protect her from heaven? cas made out with a demon who was an enemy at first and then slowly opened herself up to him?? crowley also had a brief fling with an angel??? ok

Weekend at Bobby's aka How Bobby Got His Soul Back is such a pinnacle episode for both S6's plot and characters.
It is one of the rare episodes that doesn't revolve around Sam and Dean. Part of this is because it was the first episode Jensen directed & less screentime helps.
Characters
Many characters are brought front and center this episode.
Jody is brought back and is shown to already be an ally to Bobby and the Winchesters. She tried to help with the FBI agent and also risks her career to save Rufus from jail. Her and their loyalty will just grow stronger as the show goes on.
Rufus is also brought back here and we get to see Bobby with his oldest friend. Their chemistry is unmatched and they should have had more episodes!
Garth is mentioned for the first time.
And of course Crowley. We learn about his past, his name, son, where he's from, as well as that he has been promoted as the King of Hell.
Sam and Dean get their asses handed to them by Bobby because he is right. Sam and Dean can be selfish, I would argue that that is a small theme of the season that leads to the ultimate conflict with Cas at the end.
But mainly we get to see Bobby in his every day element. How many other hunters he helps, always answering the phone, staying up late into the night to help, even breaking into the library. I love this character deep dive of him we get.
Foreshadowing
- Burning of bones. We learn that you can burn a demon's bones. Later used as the reason why Bobby & Sam suspect Cas of betrayal.
- Crowley becoming King of Hell, making him a big bad for further in the season/series
- When Bobby is yelling at Sam and Dean about their selfishness, he mentions how he does everything for them. He is always there to help them when they need it. This same sentiment and words will come out of Cas' mouth later that season when he talks to Dean.
- Did I mention Garth?
Comedy
The amount of dry and dirty jokes in this episode is high. Crowley is just dripping with semi dirty jokes, from the I hope this is paint, to the reason he sells his soul, he is at peak evil villainy. I love it.
WAB offers so much as an episode and it deserves to be in the top episodes of the season.
Camerawork is used to create visual gags, there is even physical comedy with Bobby going through the window.
Sam and Dean are brought into the plot and only really shown through phone calls.
Overall, the style of this episode is different than others and makes it standout.

thinking about my moirail crowstiel take. i was kinda right about that one. thinking about how cas always feels free to speak his mind with crowley, for better or for worse, because with him he's free of expectations. thinking about how cas keeps crowley in check and acts as his moral compass because he knows that trying to be good takes a lot of effort for him
