Well I have to admit I'm probably going to be the only reviewer to have immediately had this episode upped in their estimation based on one wonderful reason, and his name is Don S. Davis!
Stargate SG-1 fans will know him as Gen. George Hammond, who for seven seasons was the commander of the Stargate Facility located under the Cheyenne Mountain Complex. I have had the great honor of knowing him as a kind and generous man. When my good (and now very much missed) friend Ruth
was diagnosed with cancer, one of the few things we got to do together before she became to ill to travel was to go to a few SG1 conventions around Los Angeles where Ruth lived. Don S. Davis always took a moment to tell my friend how beautiful she was and that did more for her spirit than any medicine in the world could to make her keep fighting for as long as she did. I miss my friend Ruth and I will always have a warm place in my heart for Don S. Davis, so seeing him in Sin City as the miserly business own Trotter immediately made the episode stand out for me.
Seeing Don S. Davis aside, I also have to admit it was cool to have the story taking place in Ohio, which is where I am from. It made the story seem a bit more 'sit up and take notice' for me. Sin City was a very well written episode of Supernatural. Robert Singer and John Carver created a very intense and layered story that touched into the lives of each of the Winchester men and opened up those layers for the audience to see. The story gave us humor within the characters of Sam and Dean without going over the top (I'm sorry, but The Magnificent Seven may just go down as my least favorite episode of Supernatural, easily displacing Tall Tales). It gave us insights into their emotions for and about each other.
The one really interesting thing that stood out for me in this episode is the appearance of the character of Ritchie, played by Marty Papazian, who was originally called Iggy in the casting sides. I was sad to see him be killed off and found myself wishing he could have been one of the recurring characters to hang around like Bobby and Ellen did.

After two seasons of well-written plots, this TV show only is getting better.
