What is this, the Italian parliament?!

Supernatural- Its kinda annoying that despite being quite familiar with how demons work, they Winchester boys wouldn't test people who get separated from them for possession whenever they get back together. I guess it would be kinda paranoid, but better safe than sorry! I mean, they saw a demon evacuate one person's body, and that usually means they'll be looking for someone to possess soon. And all of a sudden one of your party whom you got separated from suddenly reappears? They're totally possessed! Sam and Dean must forget not everyone has the anti-possession tattoos.
So yeah, it was aggravating when Castiel's (or rather Jimmy's) wife reappears, they don't test her, because it was totally obvious that the demon jumped into her. I mean, it should've been no surprise to the audience at least when it was shown she was. I'm also kinda horrified how quick they are to use Ruby's knife. I know its like the Agents in the Matrix thing, if they hold back, all they're gonna do is get themselves killed, and that doesn't do the general populace or the possessed any good. And sometimes the demons do ride their hosts hard, so many of them are walking dead anyways, but still! I would think they should try to at least make an effort to use Sam's mojo to force the demon out first before going for the quick throat slit with Ruby's knife which will kill the demon, but also kills the innocent!
Smallville- I guess this ep was an attempt to clear up the situation on Chloe and Davis. I mean, when he was all, "looking at a picture or holding a strand of your hair isn't helping!" Its like, gee, possessive much? So it seemed like it was turning into emotional blackmail, where Davis would brood and whine how Chloe's the only thing keeping him from turning into Doomsday. Speaking of, I'm glad Gay-ta showed more sense then some of these other scientists they've had on the show. He's at least smart enough to be all "Frak no, keep that psycho monster away from me!" when Chloe asked if she could take him to his lab to examine him.
But yeah, at least they make it clear she doesn't have feelings for him, and she's staying with him for Clark's sake, because he's still too much of a douche-y idiot to do what needs to be done. Though maybe she does need to stop babying him and force him to take action and kill Doomsday as Ollie says he needs to. And the whole, she didn't want him to live with the decision of sending Doomsday to the Phantom Zone and be doomed to eternal torment. Drama queen! People escape from the Phantom Zone all the time. So basically, she's staying with an emotionally needy unstoppable psycho killing machine to protect her douchey wishy-washy friend from feeling bad about sending someone somewhere pretty bad?! That's retarded.
