I am REALLY tired of closing every damn episode with "Dean emotes epically and Sam tries in vain to understand."

I am starting to lose sympathy for Dean. I mean, I don't WANT that to happen, but all the same! IT IS.

It's like they just keep turning up the volume, but I'm learning to tune it out.

"I remember Hell. But I'm not going to tell you" got a reaction from me.

"I remember Hell. It was forty years long, and I tortured people, and I feel bad!" got less of a reaction.

"I remember Hell. And I was there a long time, and I tortured people, and I feel bad, but also secretly I liked it." Got no reaction. I felt nuthin'.

Next week I'm anticipating, "I remember Hell. It felt like years and years, and I tortured people, and I feel bad, but that's cause I liked it and... uh... and... I'm dying of CANCER, Sammy. You will NEVER understand me. Not ever."

EXACTLY.

And Sam just looks around mournfully.

*SIGH*

My joy at seeing Sammy on my screen was a bit wilted when Sam like... I mean what did he even do? He didn't even kick any ass! There were TWO insane incest freaks and Dean fought BOTH. All Sam did was read a diary oh and looked at Dean with concern. I feel bad for Jared. Like how is he keeping himself occupied on set? (My guess? Naps! And poking people.)

But KIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTYYYYYYYYYY. HE'S GOT PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNN. He had to climb down off the RACK. And. Torture people!

I said this in my post, but I swear to God when he said "nothing can fill this hole" I said (out loud to Tess and my tv) SAM CAN!

I'm just... so not liking Dean. Like, at first, this season he was too jockular, and acting like nothing was wrong and that felt weird. Now he won't shut up about how no one can understand him, and that's just BORING. Dean doesn't make any sense anymore. They want him to still be Dean-esque, cracking know-it-all jokes, getting touchy about the Impala, and they also want him to be IRREVOCABLY CHANGED and apparently the only way to show this is for Dean to keep confessing crazytown nonsensical stuff.

Dude, I dislike Dean so much right now that I don't even find Jensen attractive anymore. I'm totally there with you. He is excessively boring, Sam's basically just scene filler. This season blows.

misskittye January 16 2009, 19:38:15 UTC

I was never a Jensen girl, but it was because I found him too pretty. Now I find him off putting because it feels like he's taken a cue from Christian Bale and uses like the Batman voice, but for Dean. Like... it's all husky, all the time.

You know, I have almost been wondering if there has been some reason why Jensen seems to be on the screen more this season than Jared... like, if there is something Jared needs time off to do or something because it's becoming weird, the amount of times we have watched Dean run around and Sam sort of... not be on screen... have you noticed? Maybe it is just me... and I am aware this is not what you are talking about... but reading your entry reminded me that I was thinking it last night.

misskittye January 16 2009, 14:50:22 UTC

I'm not sure. I'd hope it was just that Jared has so much awesomeness going on in his life that he's like, "Yeah, I'm really only good for a few grimaces and sadfaces today." But I'd hate it if he was just wandering around the set, bored, because he has NO LINES that mean anything beyond "She took our guns!" or "I read her diary!"

ewlyn January 16 2009, 16:37:46 UTC

That would be so sad... I imagine Jensen isn't too happy about it as he is sort of being forced to carry the bulk of the show... maybe Jared is enjoying making Jensen suffer? Who knows.

I just want everything to feel balanced again. It's all so unbalanced. :(

misskittye January 16 2009, 16:43:36 UTC

SO UNBALANCED. Dean's character is unbelievably lopside in his own right (too much pain vs. sparse, and oddly placed levity), and then to have his foil, Sam, be whisper thin like he is right now? It's just bad writing.

I'm going to imagine Jared as napping, and having fun pranking people. And Jensen is rolling his eyes after every cut, and poking fun at himself that night over beers with friends.
