How long do I have to wait for Rick Springfield?

Sam, Sam, Sam, when you've got the person who kidnapped and tortured you in your grip FOR THE LOVE OF CHUCK KEEP HITTING THEM UNTIL THEY'RE DOWN!
Otherwise, it was better than I thought. Loved Crowley. I want to see him and Mary get together, maybe even produce a little brother or sister for Dean.

How long do I have to wait for Rick Springfield? He's on tonight. Do we know why they got rid of Mark Pellegrino? (I feel like I spelled that wrong, but I'm far too lazy to look up the correct way.)

My thoughts:
Gee Dean and Mary, could you have been more nonchalant in the bunker? It's not as if Sam was in mortal danger or anything, no reason to act concerned.
Why are Lady Torture and Random British Guy still alive?
When did Rick Springfield turn into Iggy Pop?
Gotta love Crowley's quick exit.
Cas, was he there? I don't recall him doing anything useful - why is he still on the show again?

I thought RS looked like discount Alice Cooper- but now that you mention it, I totally see Iggy Pop. Which begs the question: why didn't the show just hire Alice Cooper or Iggy Pop? Or more importantly just keep Mark Pellegrino on the pay roll?
Though all that said, since they do have Rick Springfield on hand- I think they missed a golden opportunity in his possession scene. Lucifer didn't need to bring back the image of his dead wife. He just needed to give him Jesse's Girl! BWAH HA HA HA (Ok, that's maybe only funny to me)
I don't get the British baddie storyline at ALL! If they're so informed that they have a dossier on Sam's relations with Ruby and Dean's bromance with Bennie (Who I completely forgot about tbh. I blocked most of Season 8 from my brain) Why the heck don't they already know about other hunters? And their contact info. I'm used to gaping plot holes and lazy writing on SPN- but that's extra stupid!
If they just wanted a reason to torture Sam and get him all wet- they could have skipped the torture and copied Scream Queens current m.o. of having John Stamos take at least two showers per episode.
Maybe Sam was feeling extra dirty after so many encounters with the Darkness. Maybe Dean will now always feel sticky now that he's got his mom back to bring him pie everyday. The Men of Letters bunker must have a shower installed somewhere. We need to see it used... For plot reasons, of course!
I tried to go in accepting that the show is just dumb and made to be dumb and enjoy it on that level (see also: Scream Queens) But it's all a little too dumb.
I wish I had Mark Pelligrino as Lucifer way more than Rick Springfield ever wished he had Jesse's Girl.

He does look like Alice Cooper.
I'd forgotten all about Benny too. I get the feeling TPTB liked the character a lot more than the audience did.
I think it would be funny if Mary bonded with Sam. Let Dean feel like the odd man out in the Winchester family for a change.
Will Crowley rescue his mother or will he gloat at her predicament?

Well, well, it seems that Rowena also noticed the Iggy Pop resemblance. Loved her quick thinking.
Was I supposed to feel sorry for 'Poor Dean'? I felt sorrier for Mary.

So is Rowena a good guy now? ? Was I supposed to feel sorry for 'Poor Dean'? I felt sorrier for Mary. Yeah, she's got a bit of adjusting to do. (It'd be amusing to see Castiel trying to bring her up to speed from his perspective.)

Was I just not paying attention during the previous episode- or did they TOTALLY retcon that Lucifer told Rick Springfield he'd heal his sister (And retcon it during the 'previouslys'?) And did they even say of what? And does it even matter?
I did catch the Iggy Pop reference though. Hee hee! And Castiel as Agent Beyonce! BWAH HA HA!
Are they done with Rick Springfield now? If so, that was quick- and pointless. Why bother sticking Luci in the body of a 'rock star' if not to take over the world with Devil Music? Because so far all he did was strut around in leather and eyeliner and really if that was his whole point he could have just taken his Mark Pelligrino vessel to Hot Topic and been done with it. Plus, I thought Lucifer Dr.Phil'ed his woobie feelings out with God/Chuck last season. Why is he still the Big Bad?
Why am I even bothering to ask?
