The one that happened after Kripke's Five Year Plan...

I’ve been wanting to reflect on season six for a while now but I’ve decided instead to just say WHAT SHE SAID!

missyjack has written a brilliant review/overview of season six. She captures the very reasons why I was so excited by the season.

More than anything, it’s the acknowledgment that Show really gave us something special in its overall approach to the season - that being its noir focus. I seriously recommend taking the time to read the review. It highlights all the noir elements and cements for me why Show didn’t rest on its laurels this season. It was gutsy in its choices and clever in its delivery.

Sure, there were things I was disappointed with. ( cutting 'cause I'm paranoid I'll spoil someone )

I'm going to pinch dotfic's idea and look at my wish list for S6 and see how close Show came to fulfilling it for me. (bold is what I typed back in Sept 2010)

( Should one even have expectations with a show like this.... )

Not bad really, considering many of my wishes were far fetched.

I was going to post wishes for season seven, but I've blabbed enough so I think I will leave that for another day.


Happy? Surprised? Disappointed? Looking back... what did you think?

regarding Sam's soul. (sorry for double post. Last one got too large to put this one on..)

( spoilery if you're not up to date )

but *shrugs* ... I'm trying to make some sense of this, so yeah...blogging against my better judgement.

( A question of investment... Sam and Dean... )

/removes soap box. *sheesh* anyone would think that this was important.. hee...

And no... I haven't written this to start Dean v Sam arguments. AT ALL!

Instead - a poll (out of curiosity)

[Poll #1706039]

Can anyone link me to a straightforward tutorial on making .gifs? I'd really like to give them a go and my attempts so far have been pretty abysmal.

Also... a ( wee question re 6.12.. )

Lost soulless puppy or devil in disguise?

I present the case for Sam Winchester: a devil in disguise.

( The Curious Case of Sam Winchester. )

I 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??

( ranty ms ranty pants.... )

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**

Yay! Show tonight. And once again I KNOW NOTHING about it! Not deliberate I just haven't had the time to seek out the spoilers. But I think I might be preferring to be non spoiled. It certainly aided my surprise and enjoyment of the last episode.

Speaking of the last episode. For those who thought it was more about "Sam bashing" than anything else I suggest and recommend this awesome meta by bardicvoice. (even if you didn't I rec it). Love the insight into Sam. And in fact it suddenly made one thing very clear to me. At the end of MBV Dean pleaded to God for help. In response God has given him Sam. (That might make more sense if you read the meta).

( And now because this has been on my mind. I suppose the parallels interest me... )
