The episode itsself was okay-ish for me. Not too much to talk about it. But what you said in the end: That's why I recommended you to watch the Spinoff before season 9, so you get to know Jimmy and Yves, to get a better feeling for their dynamic, to appreciate "Jump the shark" a bit more, which still is not a great episode. I thought it was convoluted. Something that often happens with crossovers, because you want to put all the main characters from both shows in it. An then you've got a lot of exposition and endless dialogue, because you want to make everyone understand what's going on, even if they didn't watch the other show. Also, "Jump the shark" lacked the spinoffs laid back tone, Jimmy felt out of character, he was constantly sad, for reasons of course. But in the end I'm glad that they tried to give at least some kind of closure. Of course I'm not too happy with their death. Btw: I don't know Bella from Supernatural, but Yves is also a bit like a female Krycek, always with her own agenda, lone wolf. The difference is, she's not as ruthless, and she's not a killer. Great reaction as always. Thanks.
