I thought it was a bit Icky and annoying, like you said too. I didn't think it was very funny at all.
I didn't notice Sam being more aggravated then usual. I thought his reaction was just fine for being groped by an old lady. *shrugs*
I'd go and rewatch it, but that means I'd have to see Bela Shocked

and OOC Sam and Dean Rolling Eyes

You might be right, ExtraCookie. I only watched it once and I can't force myself to watch it again. Besides the fact that I found Gert extremely annoying (and from the sides I thought she'd be funny, that was very disappointing) I didn't pay much attention to her and Sam. I was too busy hating Bela. And I still am, so I can't rewatch. I'll just pretend RSAM never happened.

First, I apologize for being lame. I don't know what your abbreviations mean! Taking a shot in the dark, I'm guessing OOC means out of character. RSAM, no clue! Rude Sam? Rumpled Sam? Ravishing Sam? Ridiculous Sam? Laughing

Really? You two refuse to watch episodes? I guess I'm a hard-core fan or something, because nothing, not even the wretched "Bugs" ep., can make me not watch the show (I've even watched that ep. at least twice!). As long as the guys are there, doing their thing, I'll watch. I think even if the show became sucky in general, I still wouldn't be able to not watch, because it already hooked me with its former goodness! As for Bela, I don't hate her. It's Jo all over again for me, which means she's just there. I don't care if she is, I don't care if she isn't. She may as well be a tree. *shrug* She does seem to have this odd, un-chemistry with the guys, though. Esp. Jensen. When he's doing scenes with her, things don't seem to flow the way they normally do with him. Not a big deal to me, though. Supernatural tends to tap some internal spring of patience within me! I can forgive it nearly anything. Smile

Nearly.

I hate watching RSAM (red sky at morning) Wink

I can take Bela in other eppies, but here Sam and Dean's OOC'ness is just too much for me.
Everytime I hear her tell Dean not to think because he's not very good at it I wanna punch her.
Everytime Dean notices that the hand is gone it makes me wanna cry because she makes him look like the biggest idiot ever. On top of that she's so good a thief that they can't show us how she gets the hand out of his inside jacket Rolling Eyes

And everytime Sam says "She has Style, gotta give her that" I wanna puke. That has to be the worst line in the history of SN.
I'd rather watch "Bugs" and "No Exit" on a 24 hour loop

No worries Cookie, it took me a while figure it out, too. Smile

RSAM means Red Sky At Morning.
And that's the only episode I refuse to rewatch. It made me so mad I wanted to throw things at my screen. My reasons are exactly the same as Jasmin's. I'd rather watch 'Bugs' every day than ever 'Red Sky At Morning' again. And I didn't even hate 'Bugs' that much. The monsters were weak and so was the instant morning, but I liked the family dynamics. The 'Dad is disappointed in me' talk. I'm a sucker for that kind of stuff.
To me, Bela is way worse than Jo. Jo was annoying but I didn't mind her that much. I didn't care if she was there or not. Sam and Dean were still Sam and Dean around her. Bela, on the other hand, drives me so mad I just want her gone. The way the boys act like completely different characters around her is just intolerable for me. I guess my fangirl-heart can only take so much.

To jump in...

Bugs. Not my all-time favourite episode by any means. But not the absolute worst you can get, either. Like Jule, I was a fan of the family scenes and every single time I watch the "We accept home owners of every race, religion, ethnicity or...sexual orientation" scene, I crack. right. up. Dean's FACE. Sam's FACE. The "Okay honey?" butt slap! Classic. <3 I know a lot of people hate that scene, but I thought it was just adorable how they handled it. They didn't flip out, they just went with it and rolled their eyes a little as if it'd happened before and they'd learned there was nothing they could do about it.

No Exit/Jo. I absolutely hated Jo. Like could not stand her. Until BUaBS aired. I liked her in that episode. I've already outlined by reasons for not liking the character up until that point, but just to summarise: In BUaBS, Jo had left home and was living alone, supporting herself, and had GROWN UP. She was no longer the rebellious little girl stuck in a 20-something body she'd been previously. It made me warm up to her.

RSaM. Again, not my favourite episode. But it could've been worse. There are some scenes in it that I really liked. The Bela-ness was a little over the top, as Kripke has since pointed out. But the reasons that I wasn't a HUGE fan are the same as all of yours: calling Dean stupid repeatedly, being able to steal the hand, just handing them money as a 'sorry', and getting saved by them.
Since it aired and since Fresh Blood aired, I've somewhat changed by tune on the last. Dean and Sam have proven themselves time and again to be the sort of guys that just need to SAVE people. Even if the people are unbelievable douchebags. But in FB, Dean has finally had enough. That bitch set Gordon on his baby brother, and THAT is unforgivable. I think Bela ought to watch her back next time she's around Dean.

Overall, I can watch every single episode again and again. Er...and have. But you know what one of my pet-peeve episodes is? Heart. I mean, a lot of the scenes were adorable. But I'm not a fan of the actress who played Madison (and then I watched her in OTH and hated her on that show, too, figures) because she, like Cassie, wasn't a good actress. And the sex scene sort of makes me laugh every time because of all the lighting and zooming in on Jared's muscles. *snort* A lot of people spontaneously combusted when that aired and voted it a million times hotter than the Dean sex scene we got in Route 666. Personally? I was a fan of that one. Understated, low lighting, nothing too dramatic, intimate. Both were appropriate to the mood of the show/the emotional state of the boys, but Sam's was just a little over the top for me.
I wish they'd bring someone like Taylor (Sarah) back to the show. Only... from watching the S1 gag reel, I think she may have been the reason that Jared and Jensen had that one fight that year. Jensen's face throughout those repeated takes is like a thundercloud. Seriously. Go back and watch that and then watch the S2 gag reel where Jared's fucking around in the kitchen during Heart. It's like night and day.
