that was kinda underwhelming ngl. I really expected that either Dean would show up, or we’d meet the “Queen” (it feels so weird to not call her The Empress/The Condesce/Meenah). Neither of those things happened.... yknow I keep saying that if the writers were confident enough in their ability to convey themes that they didn’t spend 15 minutes of every episode looking directly into the camera to talk about generational trauma (...and then illustrate it just fine immediately after, might I add. they don’t need to explain it all. the themes come across just fine) we would have a LOT more time for actual plot and the story wouldn’t fucking crawl like this.

#spnwin spoilers #keep the themes for all i care just have some confidence that we can actually UNDERSTAND a theme and dont need to be told on repeat every ep #you're either making a good show or an add for therapy make up your mind #seriously what the fuck is going on in the writers' room I am still genuinely baffled at this #I've literally never seen a show with a target audience age above 8 that diverts this much of its time and energy #to explaining the already-perfectly-clear themes directly to the viewer #except steven universe and that one WAS blatantly about therapy first and monsters second #seriously i cant be the only one feeling like this show is moving at an unbearably slow speed right?#literally half of every episode is the exact same paragraph about therapy repeated directly to the camera #im not even mad abt the heavy therapy themeing here im mad because the WRITING SUCKS and the SHOW SUFFERS FOR IT
