Does ANYONE out there still enjoy this?

It feels like everywhere I turn, all I'm seeing is angry SPN fans. People who hate the storyline. People who hate Amelia. People who hate Benny. People who hate Cas. People who hate the flashbacks/story structure.

People who hate Sam because he's clearly 100% in the wrong and want him to DIAF for being such a terrible brother to Dean.

People who hate Dean because he's clearly 100% in the wrong and want him to DIAF for being such a terrible brother to Sam.

So I figured I'd do a poll, for SCIENCE. What are your feelings, flist? Do you all really hate things as much as it feels like you do? Or are there some of you out there who are still enjoying yourselves?

I think for me personally, I should probably watch this show in a vacuum.

I'm enjoying it, honestly and I think it's interesting what they did this season. I'm ok with Benny (I'm sorry Benny, but after all these years I'm still bitter that Ruby turned out evil and I'll side-eye any evil creature that gets a redemption storyline)

My main problem is the fandom. See, I'm a Sam-girl of the of-course-I-also-love-Dean variety, but I see so much hate against him, it makes me reflexively angry. So, I dind myself watching the episodes and then somethings happens that I have no problem with it, but a nagging voice in my head says -Omg the Sam-haters are going to have a field day with this, twisting it around from a general everyone-is-shit-at-life and/or communicating thing, into why Sam should totally leave the show, and I can't enjoy it anymore.

So, I think, I'll keep enjoying the show, but stop looking at youtube comments/general fan reactions, because it seriously takes the fun out of it for me right now
