but you can note the changes in the two of them

Every time I hear S1/S2 Sam and Dean's voices, I can't help but think "prepubescent" even though obviously they're not.

I feel like neither has gone anywhere really since S4.

Dean seems to be, for the most part, still dealing with his issues with alcohol and anger, although I feel like his issues with John have been tempered with time. I think Sam, though, has changed since S4. He's forgiven himself (mostly?) for what happened in S4/S5 and he made peace with John in 5x13. Even though I feel like the tension has eased from Sam and Dean's relationship this past season, their dynamic is still the same. I don't know if that's bec. the premise of the series remains static (brothers against all else, saving people, hunting things) or bec. the writers don't want to change it for fear of ruining a "good thing".

Cas with Anais, with Kevin, and with Others

Yikes. And those are good examples why fanfic thrives. Everyone can play in their own sandbox. ;)

I can only conclude it's been deliberate

Agreed. Although I can't think of a reason why.

Sam never has anything to say to them in the whole episode

No kidding, right! Argh. I've always wished there was some sort of conversation between Sam and Jo regarding what happened in BUABS.

it's lacking any tension for me

For me this finale this season has been the most unanticipated yet. If anything I was more curious to see how we were going to be left for S8 rather than looking forward to seeing what was going to happen to the Leviathans.

none of those resurrections were even explained

God has conveniently left the building.
