*hugs* Totally get how you feel. Think I am pretty obvious in how I feel about show right now. If you need to chat I am over at Yahoo. :-)

You know, of course that I completely agree with you. It's been so hard watching this show that I used to love just all out ruin the brothers relationship (and their own characters) to the point where it's basically unwatchable. It's also hard to see around the fandom how people are claiming it's "better than it's ever been" I don't understand them. What show are they watching? They've completely ruined Sam and Dean and if that's not the heart of the show, what is?

I love the point you made about the reason behind killing off John Winchester and how far they've come from their original "it's about family" coda. It makes me very sad to see the shadow of the show I used to love now. I'm always here to chat if you start to get frustrated. :)

Oh and of course, there's always fanfic!

You know, I think it's mostly me not being able to write about the show anymore... Fanfic has always been a way for me to channel my frustration and find at least something I could still like about it. And with that apparently gone (though I'm hoping this is a temporary issue and not a permanent one) there's this feeling of... finally coming to an end with the show...

I love the point you made about the reason behind killing off John Winchester and how far they've come from their original "it's about family" coda. It makes me very sad to see the shadow of the show I used to love now.For me it's not even the shadow of a show I used to love, for me the idea behind the show is gone. As are Sam and Dean ( ... )

I guess I've just felt this way for about 3 years now so I got used to avoiding fanfic that obsessed about Castiel and Angel stuff. It IS really hard, it's always hard to let go of something that you feel so attached to. And I did really feel attached to Supernatural. It was like the perfect show to me, I loved the brothers so much. I got all my friends to watch and love it with me and when it took its turn making the brothers hate each other and fight each other I started to complain and everyone told me to stop being so negative. That you weren't a fan unless you worshipped everything about a show. That was hard for me to take b/c I think being critical of anything is super important (not negative but critical) and it became this thing of "oh don't talk to Jenn about Supernatural, she's gets all crazy and bitchy" which was like, WHAT SHOW ARE YOU WATCHING?! Eh sorry about the rant there but yes, I completely agree. It really ruined my want to write fic too but it did come back for me (I just created my own SPN world where ( ... )

With me it was actually the other way around, a friend of mine got me into the show. She gave me season 1-3 when I was sick and had nothing to do for a weekend and I popped in whichever episode sounded good to me and watched. And fell in love. And then I watched the whole show again, in the right order this time, and fell in love again. Because, even though there were ghosts and werewolves and witches and ghouls and zombies, the show was so down to earth, Sam and Dean felt like normal guys with normal... well, almost normal problems ( ... )
