Day 22: Least Favourite Episode or Season



Swap Meat.

You will never convince me - not in a million gazillion years - that Dean would not recognise that Sam wasn't Sam almost IMMEDIATELY! Sam knew Dean wasn't Dean in Skin with one key toss - you cannot expect me to suspend my disbelief for nearly a whole episode and accept that Dean did not know something was very wrong with Sam. "Sam" crashed his car for God's sake! But even more than that...for Dean to be DISAPPOINTED that HIS SAM had returned at the end...I JUST....I will NEVER GET OVER THAT. *bawls like a baby* Lalala...that episode did not happen.

Runners up - Yellow Fever (grrrr... Sam sitting casually on the hood of a car while Dean was moments from dying...and everything else. This might be an equal with Swap Meat actually), Citizen Fang (hee...documented that one already), Reading is Fundamental (I know.. I'm sorry...I just...didn't like it that much. Mostly just bored). I know that the Wedding episode will be on the top of many lists, but not mine because I'm completely shallow. Sam was tied to a bed so, you know, there was that... *hides*

There's no overall season I would pick as my least favourite. I struggled with the first half of season six because I just couldn't connect with Soulless!Sam (but loved what they did - the idea was great and gave Sam's time in the cage real significance) and the first half of season 8 completely did my head (and heart) in. The brothers fighting for no real reason (read - totally contrived reasons) was frustrating and sapped the enjoyment out of the show for me.

There are so few episodes that I actually dislike - which is pretty amazing considering how many episodes there are. Also, I am pretty forgiving of this show. I want to love it so I let quite a lot pass by me.

Season 7 is a weird one for me. I remember enjoying it when it aired and then after the final episode I was considerably underwhelmed. I'm one of the few who enjoyed the leviathan story line, I just think the resolution sucked big time. It's also disappointing that they didn't have a good explanation for what happened to all of them after Dick disappeared back into Purgatory. But yeah - S7 is probably the weakest of all the seasons (though not nearly as frustrating as the first half of S8 for me).
