ash48I am reading that there's a lot of Sam character bashing today. (Luckily, I haven't read it just heard about it..)
Why? What has he done wrong now? I mean seriously? WTF??
Oh. Is it because he's been lying to Dean? Manipulating Dean? Using Dean as bait since the get go? Not caring about victims? Unsympathetic? Unheroic? Didn't accept the keys to the Impala? Smirked when Dean was turned? Paid for sex? Smirked when he first saw Dean after a year? Didn't tell Dean he was back from the dead? Sided with the Campbells? Continually gave lip service in just about everything he said in that last episode? (and each episode proceeding it)..
Yeah.. because that makes sense. That all sounds EXACTLY like Sam.
HELLO??!! Clearly NOT SAM... Jeez.... how many more friggin' clues (and anvils) do they need to drop?!
This is the whole POINT! If anyone thinks Sam is in any way capable of the above actions then the Sam they know is not the Sam I know. Wow... after 5 seasons I think it would be pretty darn clear what kind of person Sam is.
Oh ...oops, that's right. He left Dean for college. He wanted out of the hunting life. Damn I forgot. Sam is totally all of those things. Silly me.
*sheesh* Ok. I got worked up... needed to rant and I figure my own journal is the best place to do it.
At least that way you can ignore it.
This is why I don't go anywhere else other than LJ when reading discussion posts. I think I'd probably BURST something if I actually read it. I like my little safe, sane haven and awesome, sensible flist. And I am totally up for someone telling me (in a non bashing way of course) if there's a Sam they are seeing that I've totally missed here. Totally fascinated by that...
*breathe Sarah, stay calm...*g**

Date: 2010-10-31 05:36 am (UTC)Dean loves Sam loves Dean - THE END and long may Supernatural stand.
I mean that is the whole point of the show as far as I knew...
Yeah the bashing is just stupid... and I have found myself sticking up for Sam as well as Dean, which is just kinda odd for me since I am a Dean girl, but all this wank is dumb.
I stuck up for Dean in the last eppy and then turned right around and had to do the same for Sam because someone went off the deep end in that area too. *facepalms*
I can remember when this fandom was happy and Sam and Dean girls use to be nice to each other... *sighs and shakes head*
I guess S4 ruined that and then we get a glimmer of hope in S5 only to have it jerked out from under us again.
Instead of bashing the characters, maybe we need to wait until the end of the 'book' and see how it all pans out.
*gasps* Oh no wait, now I am speaking like a Castiel Girl and trying to see the bigger picture....
I'm dooooooomed..... *headdesk*

Date: 2010-10-31 05:51 am (UTC)The boys have to be played with certain personality traits and flaws, otherwise we wouldn't have an interesting show. And as much as it hurts me to see Sam being put into the role of "monster" again, at least there's consistency in the whole concern that has been plaguing Sam since S1. I LOVE that about the season so far.
So yeah - peeps need to see past all that and see how they are shaping these characters.
*smish*
