Dec 3rd - mews1945 Tell me what you see as Sam's life journey during the ten seasons of Supernatural, and how you think his character has changed
( Read more... )
Season 8 Sam is so different, it must've been a little disorienting to watch Season 10 at the same time.
We've seen Sam look for Dean under similar circumstances (In Time after Time, when Dean disappeared in front of his eyes, in almost the same way that Dean did in ep 7.23.) But, Sam didn't assume Dean was dead and walk away. Sam also said that there was no one to turn to...that he was alone. But, he could've called Jody or Garth. And he really didn't need to even do that... in Time after Time, he tried to figure out what happened to Dean... without any help. It was Jody who called him, and volunteered to help Sam. And there was no "rule" about them not looking for each other. Even Bobby said that it was something they ignored. All this, and Sam deserting Kevin (even though Sam spent the last part of 7.23 rescuing Kevin). None of it made sense. The first half of the season, the writers were smoking some funny stuff... yes! The second half of season 8 was so much better.
Then, in S10, Sam's search for Dean was unrelenting and much more Sam-like. Sam has definitely been on an interesting journey from college kid to confident adult, over the course of the show.
Yes, he's much more Sam-like. It reminds me of the way he was in Mystery Spot.
