Dec. 6th, 2012 07:59 pmI hated that beyond words.
I am literally sobbing as I type because this actually feels like the end.
What happened to my beautiful, bromancy, interesting, scary, intriguing show? My show that had "something up its sleeve", my show that only ever had brothers at odds with each other FOR A REAL REASON! My show that had brothers who loved each other. My show that knew it's history. My show that WAS NEVER a soap opera. My show.... *sobs*
My heart is breaking so much and it fucking hurts.
I trust that I missed something. To be honest I don't even have the energy to rant. I am so disappointed and hurt. The season cliffhanger is Amelia walking back into Sam's life... just. No words.
I have never witnessed so much distrust, disloyalty, dis-LOVE between the brothers....EVER. Even when they were fighting at the end of S4 there was at least passion. This was just...nothing. All those things without any reason. They were hardly even on the screen together. I think I even detected real hate between them. And if that's supposed to make me tune in to see how they resolve it?...well...yeah. Not so much.
The show has changed. I suppose it had to. So many of you already saw it. I glimpsed it and clawed myself back. But this is what the show has become and that saddens me so, so much.
I know I shouldn't post. I know you want positive stuff. But in one episode it cemented everything I feared this season would turn into. A boring soap opera.
(I will say that it was beautifully filmed. And if it was a soap opera then I am sure it was beautifully written).

@Sam Why does he care so much I think much of his talk is a prime example of no. 3 on the BPD list. Sam doesn't really know or understand himself. He grew up molding himself into who he needed to be (working cases) or in lashing out against it (John) Even at Stanford one of the first things he says to Dean is, "I never really fit in."
in many ways I think the boys are more in charchter than they've been since s.3.
