While I'm on the topic of 5.13

Dear Supernatural,

Please to stop killing your wimmens.

Seriously.

I'm going to start taking it personally at this point. Just because one part of fandom hates the female characters you introduce (here's a hint: fandom is BATSHIT CRAZY and you should ignore them!), that doesn't mean you should automatically kill them off the minute they start being strong, interesting and independent.

No love,

Me


Heck, I don't like Anna. I just don't want her to be dead. I DID like Ellen and Jo, and I'm really pissed that they essentially died for nothing. Why the HELL did they kill off Pamela? That was completely narratively uninteresting.

In short, if you're a woman on Supernatural you may as well be wearing a red shirt and wandering away from the party.

This isn't a deal-breaker for me, because I do love the show otherwise. Still, it pisses me off.

Exactly. I didn`t even care much about Anna. I thought she was already dead. But ... arrgh not again.

Feh. I am annoyed at the show for the pretty much gratuitous killing of anything and everything female.

Seriously, the only recurring female character who's not dead now is BECKY.

Well, there`s Meg too, but she doesn`t resemble Season 1 Meg much.

I forgot about Meg. I bet you anything she'll be dead by the end of the season, though. :P
