#fire Bucklemming

[laf-outloud]

Man, you doing God’s work out here saying the truth. I couldn’t really comprehend why Jared was getting the hate for being betrayed by someone who was supposedly his best friend, and then the onslaught of undeserved criticism against him for petty made up reasons.

Even back when the show was still running, I hated how Sam was often pushed to the side and undermined while the spotlight was shifted onto Dean/destiel

If there was someone who could’ve saved supernatural, I would’ve honestly handed the show to you, I think you would’ve done the characters and casting justice

Well, I'm not sure which of my posts prompted this ask, but... thank you? I think?

Though I will disagree that the spotlight ever shifted to Destiel. Dean, maybe, but never Dean and Cas (most everyone involved considered Destiel a joke).

And while I appreciate the compliment, I guarantee there are much better SPN writers and analysts on this site who would easily surpass any ideas I could envision.

If I had worked on SPN, it would have been as a script supervisor, ensuring continuity... (and also EP so I could fire Misha, Bobo, Robbie, BuckLeming, Dabb, and Bob Singer).

A, B, F, I, L, V, Z

A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.

Geez, do you have a couple of hours?? Sastiel, Wincest, Wincestiel, Sabriel, Casabriel, Sauck, SaRaph, SaMichael, Samwena (I'm sensing a theme here), Debriel, Drowley, Dreamhunter, Dodio, Deonna, Samchit (also your fault), Otayuri, Viktuuri, MilaSara, WinterIron, IronHawk, SpideyTorch, Buckchester (Bucky/Sam Winchester, because crossover ships are too fun sometimes), Asushin, Shinworu, Asurei, Reiworu, Kajisato, Drarry, Rorry, Twincest (Fred and George edition), Twins/Harry, Charlie/Harry, Bill/Harry, Bleur, Percy/Oliver, Ozander, Xander/Spike, Willow/Tara, Xandelia, uhh.... Yeah, there's a number of fandoms where I don't have ships for one reason or another, too, so. That's not it, but it's all I feel like admitting to. XD

B - A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.

Answered here, and I blame you. XP

F - What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom?

Do you mean active participation in., or from inception? Because I don't really consider myself as having left very many fandoms even if my participation in them faltered and lay fallow for a while. For active participation, Supernatural is probably the longest I've been continuously a part of, which is funny since it's the one I resisted getting into the most. From inception, though, probably Animorphs.

I - Has Tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why?

Tumblr actually made me dislike a fandom before I was even in it to the point that I refused to even watch the series for ten years before a crossover fanfic piqued my interest in the characters enough to go looking for more and eventually reading fanfic for it without the crossover element, and even then I resisted actually getting into the fandom until I started getting plot bunnies I couldn't ignore anymore and now I've been in the Supernatural fandom for seven years and counting. Go figure.

L - Say something genuinely nice about a character who isn’t one of your faves. (Characters you’re neutral about are fair game, as are characters you merely dislike. Characters that you absolutely loathe with the fire of ten thousand suns are exempt, as there is no point in giving yourself an aneurysm over a character that you hate.)

Lucifer had the potential to be an amazing, complex character full of head-twisting theological implications of free will and the nature of angels, the incredible and infuriatingly human potential to grow beyond the limits of what he was created to be, and he deserved better than to be Bucklemming's yoyo.

V - Which character do you relate to most?

In which fandom? I don't think I could pick just one, anyway. Online quizzes have put me as "Sam-coded", if that helps?

Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go! (Prompts optional but encouraged.)

Gah! Every time someone asks me to talk about some unspecified "something", even with the codifier of "fan-related", my mind goes blank. I have no idea. I'm tired and need more sleep than I get and I could really use a hug. One of the best hugs I ever got was from Jared Padalecki at JAXCon in December of 2018. It was warm and solid and felt like hugging a flannel-wrapped tree, and I'm amazed my eyes were actually open in the photo op. Second to that was also the hug I got from Misha Collins that same weekend during an earlier op. Something about him, his presence, was just so incredibly calming that I felt like I had been dropped into a liminal space where a full thirty-minute meditation was compressed into one and a half seconds, and it left me feeling so relaxed for the whole rest of the day. Hugs are really nice, and those two in particular had to have hugged a LOT of people just that weekend alone, but it still felt special and briefly connecting. Good memories, and I'm glad all of us were in the right places within ourselves to make those memories. (I rather doubt I stand out in their memories at all, or at least I hope I don't, I was an awkward bean that weekend and I just hope I'm part of the more positive background blur in their minds.)

Carry On (#327th ranked; so bad I pretend it doesn't exist, actually undoes many of the themes and core message of the show. -8/10, will never watch again)

Halt and Catch Fire (#326th ranked. Very stupid premise, foolishly executed. Episode that made me fall off the show for several years)

Bloodlines (#325th ranked, this one is kind of a freebie because everyone agrees that it's crummy. We don't watch Supernatural because we want to watch other shows.)

Heartache (#324th ranked, and a perfect example of what poor writers Buckleming are; interesting idea told through clumsy exposition and hackneyed dialogue)

The French Mistake (I just didn't like it)

we need a worst episode of supernatural bracket. reblog with your least favorite episode(s) of supernatural

SPN 15x13 Plotholes courtesy of Bucklemming

1. Anael became a scam-healer after the fall. She was not on Earth during the Apocalypse and couldn’t possibly know a demon nor guess that demon’s secret allegiances. 

2. Ruby had never seen angels before, was scared of them and wasn’t prepared for the angels introduction, and so wouldn’t possibly have been in league with any.

3. The Garden of Eden (even though it looks different for everyone) is the epicenter of heaven as Joshua explained which humans CAN visit as evidenced by Sam and Dean going there. 

4. AU!Dean and AU!Sam couldn’t have found and driven the car while TFW2.0 was gone because...they took the car.

[itisa-profoundbond-sarandom]

Call me when Bucklemming will write an episode without sexual and inappropriate jokes.

Making fun of sexual abuse and manipulation....after all this time, really?

I'm happy the bros didn't met Ruby again but Cas looking happily at Meg...fuck off.

At least DeanCas got almost married...well, their child has eat the ring and the bestman was busy with the gifts.

SPN 14X12

ENOUGH WITH THAT NICK'S STORYLINE!!!! GOD NOBODY ASKED FOR IT WHAT THE FUCK???? LIKE WHY ARE THEY FORCING SUCH UNWANTED CONTENT?????? I THOUGHT WE WERE DONE WITH IT LAST WEEK!!!! AND WHAT WAS THE TURNING POINT ???? FOR DEAN AND CAS ???? SUCHA BAIT MY GOD!! I WAS ACTUALLY EXPECTING THIS KIND OF BULLSHIT BECAUSE IT CAME FROM BUCKLEMMING!!! FIRE THEM ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'D RATHER HAVE NO SEASON 15 THAN WATCHING ONE MORE EPISODE OF BAD WRITING AND POOR LEADERSHIP OVERALL

[ldrmas]

So from now on when fucklemming puts out an article that has anything to do with Cas and Dean, I'm just going to assume their promoting they gay vibes Nick is giving out for Lucifer. Because that is seriously the rabbit hole we are falling into here.

[very-not-natural]

Just had this convo with a friend, this is what I would do if I could kick Dabb out of the showrunners seat and end the show. Supernatural has become so unnecessarily convoluted with all these plotlines that never get resolved, too many unnecessary characters that take up way too much screen time with no payoff, not to mention the blatant disregard of cannon and being true to the characters themselves. It’s supposed to be about the boys and how they fight to save people and hunt bad things. I can’t get why the writers can’t get back to that...

[chaoticwaywardrebel]

WHY THE FUCK ARE BUCKLEMMING TRYING TO PROMOTE DEANxKETCH??? LIKE,FOR FUCK’S SAKE. IT’S SO FUCKING WEIRD???

[billiewena]

I am ALWAYS saying this (x)

[debatchery]

look, as excited as I am for Gabriel’s return, can we all acknowledge that Bucklemming just butchered the show’s lore? (yet again)

let us remember the amazing episode that was Hammer of the Gods, wherein Gabriel the Archangel attempted to kill Lucifer and used a regular fucking angel blade to do it

let us remember that none of the archangels that we’ve met throughout the years have ever wielded that ~~~~*special archangel blade*~~~~

that blade has never come up in conversation, even though we spent an entire season trying to find an effective way of killing Lucifer. not a peep, not a mention of it anywhere, not even from Crowley, who had always been very interested in collecting powerful weapons and should have at least known about it.

I call major bullshit.

[chevrolangels]

“new spn episode tonight!”

“written by brad buckner and eugenie ross-leming”

[ladylilithprime]

Bloody clothes, holding a bloody hammer, Artie.... Yeah, I didn’t think Nick was going to be a good guy, but thank you, BuckLemming, for EXCEEDING MY FUCKED UP EXPECTATIONS!!!

[samsrowena]

charmelo and snyder when i fucking get you

[nellycakess]

You know what? FUCK BUCKLEMMING!!!!

I RARELY get upset with an episode. I’ll defend the majority of them to the end but 12x21 was HORRIFIC writing with ABSOLUTE NO CREATIVITY or compassion for the characters that the better writers of the show created. 

Supernatural is better than this and deserves more than this. Bucklemming have no concept of what Supernatural is about. This was an absolute disgrace to the cast, crew, and the other writers, like the ones who have to clean up the bullshit of a mess that these two create in the first place. 

I’m sure Robert Singer is gonna get shit AGAIN at the conventions for this episode and Andrew Dabb is going to get shit at SDCC and frankly, I hope they curl up in a corner for it.

Where’s Robbie Thompson, where’s Jeremy Carver, where’s Eric Kripke?!

I want my show back.

[sunflowerdigs]

What really bothers me is that the show is not bad yet.  Most shows barely have enough material to last 5 years but in the hands of competent writers, Supernatural is still putting out solid, interesting episodes with great characterization.  I love this show.  I’ve loved it for 10 years, whether I was watching or not, and I think I’ll love it until Sam and Dean sail off into the sunset for the last time (only to come back for guest appearances on the inevitable spin-off).

And so Bucklemming come in and they shit on this thing that is not dead yet, this thing that so many people are still passionate about.  Supernatural does not deserve that and the fans don’t deserve it either.
