You know, I don't think I will ever understand the sheer hate that lies in the fandoms of Stargate: Atlantis and Supernatural. I mean, both shows have served their purpose. While there are certainly some writing issues, that happens in every show. But people become so defensive of their characters and it's like, I realize I'm heavily involved

I was out of SPN fandom for a loooong time, and when I came back after catching up on season 4, I was like, "oooh boy, here we go." Because back in season 2 it was Jo everybody was hating on, and then it was Ruby (and Anna, honestly, what did she ever do to anyone except have sex with Dean? ...oh, that's right, HOW DARE SHE). And I really liked Ruby, but even if I didn't, I'm sure I would have just been indifferent to her at worst, because like you said, what is the point of focusing all your energy on HATING something on a show you watch? Focus on what you do like, or, like you also said, if you really are feeling this much anger watching a show, maybe you shouldn't watch it anymore! It's supposed to be fun!
Us vs Them doesn't mean Us and only Us. Exaaaaactly. I think this more than anything is what bugs me. Sam and Dean caring about other people (or angels? haha) and other people doing the same is NOT A BAD THING. They could use some more love!

I stopped reading SPN fic for a long time because I was caught up by Heroes and SGA, but I've always been in the fandom aspect. And the hate for Anna really surprises me! Ruby, I can almost understand because she was bad. But Anna didn't do anything. Except the sex. People just really hate all girls on SPN (unless they act like the boys mothers).
Sam and Dean caring about other people (or angels? haha) and other people doing the same is NOT A BAD THING. They could use some more love!
I agree! I just don't get the bubble they want to put around them, but then they still want to see them living lives.
