Mostly what worries me about Carver is his intentions. Watching Kripke's version I always imagined the boys driving off into the sunset together - on the road forever. Gamble was depressing, Butch and Sundance, Dean was going to drive them both of that pier and I was kind of ok with that one too.
Carver though? I honestly think Carver is going to go for the Happy Ever After. Problem with that though is that he's pounded into my head over and over this year how miserable Sam is hunting and how happy Dean is hunting and determined to guilt Sam at every turn to stay with him. Dear god I hate Carver for that.
There's a 1000 words I could writer here about why I feel this is coming, but it would all boil down to Dean happily hunting from the MOL bunker with human Cas, Charlie, Kevin and all the others he's been "friends/family/brother/sister" with this season. Sam, who's been far more isolated from most of these characters will walk away, maybe back to school, maybe back to Amelia, but somewhere free of hunting where he too can be happy. Carver's already shown us how easy that would be, something I never thought could be possible, did I say how much I hate Carver for that? Yeah, I do.
The hero always wins doesn't he? Always gets his girl and his walk into the sunset. SPN has always been the hero's journey and Sam's is the journey we've been following since the Pilot. He was happy there and I feel Carver will mirror this in the final episode.
It's not what I ever wanted, I can't tell you how upset I feel over this, how I never, ever thought it would happen this way, and I agree, it might not happen this way, next season might take a huge turn somewhere, but right now, Carver's basic imagining of who these characters are and his re-imagining of so much canon I held dear has turned me sour and I get so bloody sad every episode I watch thinking about how this mess could ever be resolved.
As the saying goes - "stick a fork in me, I'm done"
