so elsie and i just finished 11x6 Our Little World which is the episode in which they explicitly reveal for the first time that Amara is "god's sister" and they explain their version of the creation story; that god had to sacrifice his own kin for humanity. and elsie points out. "uhhhh i sure hope he does???" and proceeds to do the sign of the cross. which is so insanely funny to me but i also like. had to sit there and process it.

bc like me and a billion other jewpernatural scholars have talked at length about how supernatural was never going to do Jesus. like . kripke is jewish and it would not have made sense. there's like two throwaway lines the whole show to Jesus and a fuckton of great crucifixion imagery w Sam specifically but like. there is no Jesus (or that would dramatically shift how heaven/hell works!!! and like the whole show would fall about). but like. yeah. fucking. yeah i guess.

which like sets up the question of like. okay so amara isn't jesus obviously (nor do i want her to be) AND we're talking about god making a sacrifice to create humanity, not for saving them from hell/damnation/sin. supernatural's god does not really give a shit about who goes to hell? like that's not his job and he would never sacrifice his own son to make sure people could go to heaven. like it does not fit in w supernatural lore and i love that. i love their absent god. which i want to talk about more when i hit s12 in this rewatch but i don't want to go too in depth on while me and elsie (again, my third watch, elsie's first watch) are only on s11 (as a reminder,,,,,, like at this point in s11,,,,, we don't even know that we've seen god and we've only seen him once, BRIEFLY, at the end of 10.5 . an entire season ago and we don't even know it's god. like last we heard of him was what, cas praying in 6.20???? and he doesn't respond???? anyway that's all i can say for now). but my question about amara is.... shouldn't she be a guy?

HANG ON OKAY. so this is the brothers show. it's a show about brothers. that's like the fucking tagline right (outside of saving people hunting things). and we just did the mark of cain in s10 right. and they didn't cast abel. they didn't cast abel. so wouldn't it make sense if this was a brother versus brother thing? like we haven't really done that since s5's lucifer v michael. could be fun to do it again.

but noooooo amara has to be a girl because of the weird dean shit going on. to be clear i fucking love amara, i think she's one of the more fun and interesting villains, and i LOVE the evil women of supernatural (meg and ruby and lillith and abaddon i loveeee you). but it's like. oh you had to make her a woman because you didn't want dean to be gay. you have a billion other male villains up against dean who have a weird like, face cradling "i know your shame/soul you have a hole in your heart i know you" dynamic with dean (crowley and alastair come to mind first). and we have a male version of every female dynamic sam has (sam gets ruby, dean gets cas. sam gets amelia, dean gets benny. sam gets the girl in mint condition, dean gets the guy. etc etc etc). but because the amara/dean thing is just SLIGHTLY more explicit... couldn't be a guy.

anyway does anyone remember when the market research was

Okay but why is no one talking about the fact that in this scene cas is the one that catches dean in his lie!! Sam doesn’t even question it until he sees the way cas is looking at dean,,

“Nothing worse than when normal people lose their minds.”

I’m loving these historical episodes. God.

[hellerradio]

For our last episode of 2022, what did we get up to? Dean being a creep, interesting set design, Cas being adorable, angry punching, the indignities of human experience… You know, the usual! 📱

We’d like to give a huge thank you to everyone who has joined us on the road so far this year! We love and appreciate you all, and hope you have safe, wonderful holidays, and a happy new year! 💙💚
