5 ways in which the SPN fandom is awesome

May 20, 2013 10:12

A couple of things happened recently.
1. I got so invested in my love of show that when I saw some of the ways in which people outside my safe bubble of fandom hate on it, I got upset and whined about it on my journal a few times.
2. There was this 'reasons why' challenge over at

I can add three more things I love about the fandom:

1. This is a passionate fandom -- deeply involved, in the things they love and hate about the show. It's hard to find a Supernatural fan who doesn't care.

2. The fans are supportive of each other.

3. Family love is the basis of this show. It's why I am so enthralled with the show, why I keep coming back.

I'm pretty sure Dean/Pie is everyone's OTP

Ha, this is awesome! I love everything on the list.

SAM'S HAIR, YES. I've seen people complaining about it, but how can they?? IT IS PERFECTION.

It outlines the 18 episodes in which Dean does not get his pie, talks about pie as metaphor, discusses how pie is a harbinger of 'bad things to come'.

This is hysterical. Although I would argue that on a show like Supernatural, pretty much everything is a harbinger of bad things to come, as bad things always seem to find those boys ...

Sam's Hair should be a separate character on bingo cards or something.

very true! poor boys

Great list! Now I really want pie.

Poor Dean! Not even Castiel could get him pie this season!

Pie is always a good life choice.

The beefcake, you forgot the beefcake! For goodness sake, look at my icon!!! :D

Seriously, my love/hate for the show comes from the way it keeps pulling me back in. Just when the bad episodes (and, man, there are some BAD ones) have me ready to stop tuning in, they'll give us one that adds a fascinating new layer of lore, or makes me laugh out loud, or simply pulls at the heartstrings just right. And just like that, I'm like a junkie enjoying a fix. :) This season's ender, "Sacrifice," is an excellent example; you better believe I'll be parked in front of my TV for the S9 opener!

And I have to admit, here we are going on nine years, and the good episodes still far outnumber the bad. Really, how many shows can say that? Our show rocks. :)

LOL -- yes, the characters are certainly easy on the eyes.

Yup, I'm addicted to it Dunkin is addicted to Donuts, I JUST CAN'T STAY AWAY, me/show belong together
