11.20 reaction

[ash48]

A very short, very negative reaction. Please be warned (I mean it. Not a happy camper - so, you know, don't click).

(*meep* and my comments are full of unmitigated bitterness too. So yeah. Don't read! You know the drill!)



That, quite possibly, has become the most rage inducing episode for me in the history of the show.

All I can say is FUCK THEM and their manipulative, canon and character destroying bullshit. I used to like Robbie, but now I'm just *side eyeing*

(I had a heap of stuff written up but I just couldn't post it. Too ragey and messy. I hope to gather myself and write a constructive crit on why that episode was the ultimate in mockery and manipulation. Or maybe it will come up in comments).

(and no, Dean calling "SAAAM!" didn't make things better - though the hair petting went some way in helping...;D)

ETA: Dammit, I have to add - making God real is the single worse thing they could ever have done. Just think about what he's allowed Sam and Dean to suffer (Rape, torture, loss etc etc). And think about how, with a snap of his finger he could change EVERYTHING. Every. Single, Thing. Curious to see how they write themselves out of that one.

Late to the party, but I'm not surprised at all that they made God real (I think he's been real since Swan Song actually. That was pretty definitive to me.) especially after they killed Death. I mean that pretty much should have changed the entire natural world, but nope, it's business as usual.

And as for God saving the world... well, that's a Christian view of God, no? I mean there's all kinds of gods in the world, so who's to say that the Christians have the right one? I'd rather the Christian god not be the omnipotent ONE singular god who saves the world. It's too US/Christian centric and excludes too much of the rest of the world for my tastes. I'd rather see all the other pantheon of gods come together to send both Amara and Chuck into the void. That would be truly satisfying to me. (And whatever happened to all the monsters banding together to defeat the darkness. Did that ever go anywhere after that one episode? Urg, so many dropped plotlines with these crappy writers.)

Ok. So this is really interesting to me. And wow, I would love for this to be the direction they take with it. I mean, they did do Hammer of the Gods so they have acknowledged other Gods in the show, so it wouldn't be completely off story to do that.

But then...he just saved those selected few - which suggests he could save anyone one else he wanted to. And he talked about creation which suggests (maybe) that they show is going for the US/Christian God. Agh. I don't know. And it would still mean he let Sam suffer terribly (which, unless something is said about that next week, I will never forgive them for). But I do really love the idea that he's not the only God and how AWESOME it would be if the other Gods got together and said ENOUGH of this world destroy bickering. You are in time out! Forever! (and take all the dick angels and demons with you - they keep causing misery too!) Ha.Oh happy days. :)

Dammit, now you've given me hope.

(And I just can't get my head around dropped plot lines. That episode, once again, just clarified that they pretty much make it up as they go and I really need to not get so caught up with it. I'm trying!)
