*sadface*

I sometimes wonder what show people are watching.

Clearly, it's not the same one I am.

If you need me, I will be over here in my happy bubble that is free of ship wars, character-bashing, and show-bashing in general.

I hate when the show does a reasonable job of making me hopeful again and feeling for both brothers and then fandom starts in on bashing. For Pete's sake, we weren't supposed to hate Dean for the price he paid in hell! Why should we hate Sam? Their tragedy is that their sacrifices strip them of everything, so that they're paying the price even after it's supposedly over. Yeah, show's made this Sam vs. Dean for reasons unknown (probably the drama) but I wish people would see that as much as Sam is fucking up right now, he wouldn't be doing so if he could possibly help it. It's terrible because he can't help it and he's hurting he people he loves all over again and he doesn't deserve it! After fighting and succeeding with free will, to stripped of it and be essentially pushed down the same road he was on two season ago is so sad. All his work to get Dean to trust him again, wasted.

God, it's so tragic I want to weep. A year's worth of work, two years' worth of pain and misunderstanding, flushed down the toilet.

The Show made it Sam vs Dean for the Epic Tragedy of it Allâ„¢, I suspect. There is very little that hurts more than seeing family turn on each other (see the Greek tragedies for reference, among other things).

I'm just waiting for them to fix it.
