S9 SPN Thoughts

Jan 25, 2014 22:06

Surprise! I'm still here (barely)! Argh, you guys, so many Show thoughts, so little time!!!!!! So I’m suppose to be working on grant applications for Important Things for one of my kids, but instead my brain wants to think about SPN. This is so typical that I’m thinking I should try to trick myself into thinking I have Important Time-Sensitive ( Read more... )

Part of me just wants to write on these applications: “Just give me the money, OKAY!?!” but I don’t think that would be very convincing even with a smiley face and a promise not to spend it self-medicating on chocolate.
LOL. I should totally try this sometime ( ... )

Hi. I didn't realize I hadn't replied to this until now. How rude. My bad!

either the boys' quests were swapped so that Dean can have a mytharc and the odd swap was inevitable, or there's another reason for it which we'll see later.

Yes, Dean being the plot tiger FINALLY!!!!!! I'm very excited about this partially bec. I'm wondering if we'll get more Sam POV judging by the past seasons where there was a lot of Dean POV bec. Dean was the motivation tiger, but mostly bec. I can't wait to see how this changes Dean as a character. I'm also finding it sort of "Harhar, I see what you're doing, Carver" with Crowley being to Dean what Ruby was to Sam. Awww, demons, so predictable, and the Winchesters are always someone pawn.

It has felt like Sam has been missing for the first half - which is weird because at the same time he was totally there. And in fact the brothers were working so well together. I know they were setting us up for this fall - but at least we got some pretty good broments out of it. What hurt was Dean and all of us knowing what was happening to Sam and Sam being kept in the dark. I feel very relieved that at least he knows everything (including everything that Gadreel and Dean did ( ... )

So months later I found that I had somehow forgotten to reply to comments in some of my posts. Whoops!

What hurt was Dean and all of us knowing what was happening to Sam and Sam being kept in the dark. I feel very relieved that at least he knows everything (including everything that Gadreel and Dean did).

Yep, yep, yep! That was the tension! Now with a good number of episodes under our belt this season, though, I can't help but wonder if the ramifications of what Dean did and Sam's reaction are going to keep playing out in a major way. I feel like I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop and not in the sense that it's the boys reconciling. Maybe it's just my own wishful thinking, but I'd still like to see the depths of Dean's deception and Sam's feelings about it play out on screen in an overt way instead of it just trailing off and getting buried under the mountain of Winchester issues.

Somehow the boys are going to have to make some sort of truce in order to work together -so going after Gadreel together will ( ... )

Hallo, stranger! Nice to see you popping up again.

...and that's all she wrote. I'm not watching Supernatural any more (I know!) so can't contribute to any current season discussion of it at all. I'm happy other people are still enjoying it, though. :)

Hello back, albeit months after the fact! Doh. I've been hibernating from fandom, but I pop in once in a while, and this time around I noticed (to my horror) I had posts with comments that I hadn't replied to.

I'm still watching SPN although not engaging in any sort of thinkiness or fandom discussions any longer. We'll see if that changes. *shrugs*

Hope you're doing well and your two kitties are healthy and pouncing around. :)
