The comment was how Dean would be "found in a situation at the end of the season that he's never been in". And... I dunno, this might be? Kinda? On the other hand. dude's been to hell, so.
It's not like something's actually lacking, it's just that my excitement had been diminished the last few weeks. This might be partly a Dean-girl problem (SO many things they hinted at in the first half of the season, and they delivered on JACK SHIT later on) and partly an issue with the main arc (the Levi arc as a whole didn't work for me, it couldn't generate the urgency it would've needed to keep me interested in how they solve it). All in all, the possibilities this season finale leaves us with are AWESOME and ENDLESS, I just lost faith that they'll use them to do any of the things I'd be hoping for. It's an opportunity to explore both boys issues, on their own and with(out) each other, and Dean's and Cas' relationship and issues with each other, and the things purgatory might stir up in Dean that he's repressed since S4 and... I kinda doubt much of that will happen. If we get a gloss-over and a time-jump to when Sam rescues Dean, I'll scream.
