Supernatural S05E04 The End

Warning: this is going to be borderline Dean critical

Goshhhh Jared's voice is so soft as Sam. I can't.. his voicemail voice can put me to sleep.. I'm not kidding

It hurts me to see that Sam called Dean with a huge news that he is the Devil's vessel and Dean goes droning on about his idgaf attitude

this is also the second episode where Dean goes time traveling without Sam

when present Dean wakes up in future verse and looks outside the window, the camera pans to scene and you can see a theatre is playing Route 666

In the next scene there's a bar that's missing the letter K so instead of Lucky's bar it reads Luc y's bar! That's clever

another Ben Edlund episode focused on Dean

Future Dean bothers me. He says Sam didn't make it knowing full well Sam was trapped in his body post possession. So he did nothing to save him? And he is just going to off him?

Dean doesn't trust Dean..why am I not surprised

lol Dean is so bossy he is bossing himself 😂

present Dean getting the same treatment from future Dean that he gave to Sam.. how lovely..

Anyone else feel present Dean would love to have a threesome with future Dean and some hippie chick?? 😂😂😂

im actually curious to know under what circumstances Sam said yes to Lucifer in this future verse. It can't be the same as canon. Shame they never answered that..

it's also the second time we see Dean talking to Dean. The first one was in that episode where they get stuck in a dream because of the dream root. The 'you are going to die and this, this is what you're going to become"

omg.. Dean is abusive to himself too..

Did anyone else notice, that future Dean dies in 2014 and if you do the math, Season 9 came out in 2013, add the one year Sam spent as Soulless and guess what? Dean really did die in 2014

enter Lucifer!Sam. And the crowd goes wild! I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed Jared Padalecki in that all white suit! People responsible for his wardrobe and hair and makeup in that scene, I love you guys!!

that head tilt!!!!!!! It does things to me! Y'all don't understand, if I ever get a chance to meet Jared IRL I'd ask him to do the head tilt 😍😍😍

like oh my god Lucifer!Sam doesn't even smile the same as OG Sam..

wait what? How did I not notice this before? In the end when Sam meets up with present Dean, Dean pulls out Ruby's knife and Sam steals himself away! Did he think Dean would kill him now that he knows he is Lucifer's vessel??? Please tell me someone else caught this too!

Does Dean ever tell Sam about his trip to the future? I don't remember it but if he does I'll put it on the review

Can you tell i love Lucifer!Sam?

Jared getting triggered

I saw a post about Jared and Misha and I agree with it but I don’t want to reblog it for the hateful anon in there. Anyways, I wholeheartedly agree with the response of that post where the person mentioned how much Jared has worked on himself and constantly grown while let’s face it Jensen & Misha have not. Misha Particularly so is still playing his petty games but I digress… The only thing about Jared that I’ve ever found less than is how he let himself get triggered and baited by Misha before. Anything and everything the hellers use against him always has something that Misha started or needlessly escalated beyond harmless joking. Obviously Jared in those years was really struggling with multiple things right from his work load, to being a new father to his mental health challenges. These are not excuses but just reiterating those circumstances.

What I am proud of amongst countless other things is that he has overcome that urge and he now ignores Misha and his pettiness just like Misha & his fans deserve. He never baited them despite enduring the worst bullying from them. So as the said blogger very rightly said, he has improved and worked on himself even here. Misha needs someone to keep him relevant and luckily Jared is not playing that role in any capacity now.

AAs In my inbox right now. I know that Jared is shit while Jensen is saint.

How do you know?

Well, I know someone who works with them and they told me this... because I am totes special.

How do we know it's true?

It is true because I said so!!!

What is the source?

Trust me bro

PS Anon : If you thought I will reply to your shit ask on my blog then you were sorely mistaken. I know all you guys crave is attention and i for one ain't going to give you one.

Also, if you know the person who worked with J2, then I am WB's and Amazon Studios President, and I say Jared is awesome while Jensen sucks. And yup I am that awesome that I handle two studios.

Stay Mad, Sucker's.

I feel for the cast and crew who got treated like crap with how Walker was cancelled early despite the network making it sound like they were safe. And I feel for the fans who truly connected with the show, and were sad to lose it.

But, if I’m being totally honest, I just couldn’t connect personally with Walker. I thought the cast had great chemistry and it had some episodes that I truly enjoyed, but it just wasn’t for me.

I haven’t seen Fire Country yet, but the descriptions of Jared's character and his potentially getting a spinoff, has me really excited in a way the Walker Texas Ranger reimagining announcement never quite did. It just sounds like something so different from the Jared characters I’ve seen so far. Cordell had his badasss moments, but he was often being talked down to and brow-beaten by many of the characters around him. I would absolutely love to see Jared play this really confident character, who is full of swagger. I hope Camden takes no shit from anyone. I’m so ready to see Jared play somone who isn’t constantly getting kicked in the teeth (Sam will always be my beloved, but he got shit on so much by so many characters and the show itself that it bummed me out at times).

I just feel very real excitement for this role, and I hope Jared likes playing this new character and gets to explore him for a while.

No one was treated well by the new CW. I hope the remaining cast and crew can find success elsewhere.

And I understand about your lack of connection with Walker. Not every show or character connects with every viewer, and that's okay!

Though, if the spin-off goes forward and Jared is the main protagonist, there might be some pain and drama beneath the swagger. That seems to be a common theme amongst protagonists, (not just Jared's characters).

And yes to badass firefighter moments! Bonus points for tight shirts and exercise montages, lol!

Speedy’s Supernatural Watch-through

hey can we all just pretend season 15 doesn’t exist?

I’m on Season 15, Episode 17.

The drop in quality from 14 to 15 is drastic and horrific. Whoever was in charge of the music completely changed the instrumentation of the background music, and instead of classic rock every song used is either like underground indie or country music.

I don’t want to critique the acting because that is unfair, the actors were working with a god awful script, but at times it feels like the actors are genuinely giving up. It gets better later in the season, but Jared in early season 15 is…struggling. Again, mainly the script’s fault.

Also just grave mischaracterizations. Since when does Dean not consider Jack family? They spend most of the last 2 seasons showing Dean getting closer to Jack and seeing him as more than just Lucifer’s son, yet when Jack has to sacrifice himself, suddenly “Jack’s not family.”?

There are things about this season I appreciate, mainly Jensen’s acting choices when interacting with Castiel, as well as…everything Alexander Calavert does cause he’s great.

I’m also deeply upset by the way they treat Dean, especially people outside of TFW interacting with him. Dean is still an attractive guy, Jensen looks incredible now at 46, and he did in 2020 too. And yet whenever Dean’s on a job, people treat him like he’s super freaking old and unattractive. Just feels like a giant fucking insult to one of the most attractive men in hollywood.

All in all, this feels like a grave misrepresentation of a show I’ve adored for months now, and I hope that if they do a season 16, they will fix some of the glaring issues with the plot.

[walkergirlsposts]

I think the reason that Jared never had to struggle for being employed after SPN that he is smarter as well as haedworking, ans he planned ahead. Jensen somehow expexted spn would run till his last breath and was at a loss when it ended. Thus came the chaos of chaos machine, that horrible The Winchesters, all the bad things and bad decisions. His main weakness is he cannot let SPN go, like Jared smartly did and started a brand on his own. Luckily he had Kripke, and he got Soldier Boy. Hopefully after all the time now he will get his footing back again. If not, we will get to here Jensen reviving SPN 2.0 in next 3 years.

Well in Jared's case he got another holding deal before the show ended which led to him getting Walker. That's what happens when you're lucky enough to get them. He didn't have to play golf and do guest starring roles because he was doing what he loved. When Walker ended because the CW was too cheap to pay for a fifth season, he had his deal re-upped to include developing shows. I'm looking forward to seeing if Pony will become a reality. Jensen is lucky Kripke is his number one fan or else he'd be clinging to Dean even harder. At least now I think he might start to let him go with Vought Rising around the corner. I don't think j2 are really that serious about a revival. I believe it's just con talk.

Jared’s Acting

Sam is my favorite and I don’t think that Jared Padalecki is a bad actor by any means. He’s capable of some the most incredible performances on supernatural (My favorites are everything from when the levee breaks, 15x20, s8 with sick sam and sacrifice, season 6 with soulless Sam and hell Sam from 6x22, S7 Sam, prophet and loss, Sam’s confrontation with Lucifer in beat the devil.) But I don’t really know why but his performance in a 15 feels kind of off. I feel like towards the later seasons the material for Sam had gotten much thinner unfortunately (although I will fight you if you say Sam has no depth or development in the later seasons.) so there’s not as much to work with compared to before. And after playing a character for so long, it’s natural too get tired. But I wasn’t really bothered by his acting at all in 12-14, but strangely in 15 I feel like the ticks and mannerisms that Jared uses to express Sam become a little too pronounced and repeated even for me. However, He still managed to deliver one of my favorite scenes in 15x17, and it never fails to make me cry.

I’ve been watching a couple of clips from Walker and the ticks of stuttering are lot more noticeable than even compared to s15. I kind of can’t help think that playing the same character kind of made his acting skill stagnate somewhat (Tbh, I think that stagnation was a bit of a problem that even Jensen and Misha toward the later seasons. They also had some habits they picked up). I think that Jared is at his best with really dynamic emotional moments and he’s a great character actor. I’m not sure I’m using the right term but when he plays other versions of Sam or other characters, he always manages to convey their differences so well in just the way he holds his face. He’s also great with comedy (swap meat and mystery spot anyone?) And while I love his Sam Winchester, I do wish he got to develop these strengths of his more and branch out to other areas. But Walker sort of seems like a sort of just an average nice kind guy and that role doesn’t seem like it would really push or challenge him to grow as an actor.

TLDR: I still think of him as a good actor but I would love and think that it would be good for him to try some roles really different from stuff he’s done before. Tbh I would really like to see him play more villains. (Soulless Sam and Lucifer Sam were incredible.)

It was so sad also for me. I was a heavy Dean fan and also a big of Jensen. I didn't even care about Sam/Jared for years. But the prequelgate really opened my eyes.

Literally me. When I found out about the prequelgate it really changed my opinion on him, and then you look back at older videos of panels and whatnot of him and just second guess everything, like his demeanour has never been that great, it gives off shallow and a little bit self-entitled (especially that pink race car story). His fandom is also psychotic and a massive turnoff. Deffo a Sam/Jared girl now.

[supamerchant]

So I talked about this previously with @loregirlsam and @small-scale-majestic, but would anyone be interested in a series of posts associating each Jared character with a breed of dog? It would mostly be all the variations of Sam for my son mutuals but would also include Jared’s other characters that I’m familiar with such as Dean Forester and Cordell Walker.

Danneel and Jensen Ackles + Jared Padalecki attend the 2014 Critics Choice Awards in Santa Monica, California on January 16th, 2014

[dimplecki]

jensen did jared so dirty by not including him in the spinoff :(

not even talking about their fallout or whatever

but the money is SAM AND DEAN 

and jared holds the show so deep in his heart and to be left out of the winchesters must have shattered him man. 

he said in interviews all the time he doens’t want the spn final to be a goodbye to Sam. he looked so hopeful for a reboot or a movie and jensen went and produced a whole spinoff without even telling his co-star pfffff

why did jensen do it im sorry i just don’t understand is jared really so awful to work with? that he must be excluded from his own shows spin off? 

[cam-ulu29]

Jensen may have gotten the SPN rights in the great Jivorce but at least Jared got to keep his sanity

[supernaturalconvert]

To the anon in my inbox, this is for you.

Firstly, I am not making anything up to praise Jared. He is effing brilliant. There are thousands of accounts from people saying that even his haters. Just say you are jealous and move on.

The fact that Jensen can be rude is something I've seen in panels myself and people who met him have corroborated very recently as well. Just check my blog there are numerous instance of how tone deaf he can be which he gets away with without even a blip of criticism.

Also, People hold Jared accountable - don't come at me with that lie ever again. I can see that you are one of those people/haters as well and I want to tell you that all of you are the biggest hypocrites out there. One of the recent examples of your bullshit is the copaganda narrative which is now gone coz it's Jensen.

Further Misha says the most horrid shit every other week and then posts a Castiel Gif and all is forgotton. So stow with your lecture, I am not in the mood. Jared being incredible and better than the other two is my truth, if it hurts you block and move on.

[jarpadswalker]

Look I get where you are getting at mate, I really do but you need to learn to take things with a grain of salt when it comes to fans tell about any actor interactions they had at cons because they can lie about an actor being an asshole or rude when in reality they weren’t. I’ve seen it happen multiple times. Also you, me and everyone in the fandom don’t actually know Jensen, Jared, Misha or any other actors. We can’t decide what their personality and also just for the record Jared also has plenty of rude asshole moments at cons but I don’t hate him, like I don’t hate Jensen. Everyone is not perfect, Jensen is definitely not perfect, Jared is definitely not perfect, you are definitely not perfect and I am most definitely not perfect but you do not decide an actor’s personality, like I don’t decides Jared’s, I don’t decide Jensen’s and I don’t decide yours and you should as-well learn to sceptical about any negativity about an actor coming from a fan who met them at cons because they could be lying.

Well, mate, none of the examples I shared about Jensen is con experience..None of them are speculative ...these are something that Jensen has actually done in public. And you are absolutely right, You and I don't know any J2 personally, which is why I can judge him, only based on his public behavior.

I also agree that Jared has made mistakes in the past, be it his bar fight or using social media platforms to complain. But the biggest difference between Jared and Jensen is that Jared owns his mistake. He never hides behind others or blames others or acts indifferently. Jensen, on the other hand, has never owned his mistake. He never said sorry. If anything everytime be it, prequel, YANA, or any other issue, he never owned it or apologized for it and blamed others for it. These are some of his greatest hits, and I haven't added others to the list. This is the biggest issue with Jensen. In fact, Jensen tends to narrate his mistakes as some great achievements or incidents. He boast about them and treats it as a sign of being an alpha. In reality, it is the biggest red flag.

Another interview with Kripke saying he wants Jared on. And this is new, like today new (they said they talked to him Thursday - aka today - and that Walker "was canceled earlier this week" and it was only cancelled Tuesday so this is a brand new interview).

I love this little bit with them excited because Jared was on GG!!:

Kripke was speaking with Variety ahead of “The Boys” Season 4 premiere, in an interview alongside “The Boys” actors Colby Minifie (Ashley Barrett) and series newcomers Susan Heyward (Sister Sage) and Valorie Curry (Firecracker) — who were all very on board with the Padalecki casting conversation. “As a childhood fan of ‘Gilmore Girls,’ I would also vote for that,” Minifie said. “That would be great.” Curry added: “Same! Same! Second that.” “OK, all right, the crowd has spoken!” Kripke declared, which hopefully seals the deal for Padalecki.

Boy, Kripke's really not letting the news of Walker's cancellation slow him down. I know it's just another day in Hollywood, but for a lot of cast and crew members, they no longer have jobs. A little tact and time would be nice (not that I expect the showrunner for The Boys to employ that).

I guess he's really trying to push now before Jared gets signed on to another project, likely because he knows Jared is a hot commodity right now, though I'd be curious to know if the interviewers are asking him about Jared or if he's mentioning him unprompted.

I do worry though, that with Kripke being this vocal about getting Jared on The Boys, if Jared turns him down, he's going to look like a jerk that wouldn't let Kripke have his complete set. Kripke's putting Jared in basically a 'can't refuse' situation. Though, if Jared really doesn't want to do it, I trust his ability to side-step the invitations tactfully (as he's done so far).

I will say, I do appreciate that Kripke call's him the "...one big one - very big one..." It makes it seem like Jared's the Holy Grail of SPN alumni (which he is, lol).

And also, lol at the GG fan from the cast!

[noegrl83]

Just a theory..but what if YES at first jensen thought the"love story of mary and john" was gonna be the golden ticket.. BUT after THAT hit the fan...the "jivorce",... the second hand cringe.., and the (omg-really!!?!?👀) realization that Dean is only a winning formula WITH Sam...maybe(🙏🏿🙏🏿) the season finale of TW will be a segway of Dean closing out the mary and john chapter..he pulls to the side of the road and SAM hops into the passenger side😭 and FINALLY the Sam&Dean revival kicks off!!!😍😍 or or or...the mary and john shitcom is still off the table BUT the season finale is Dean pulling onto the road to start his journey to find Sam and finally figure out why the FUCK he hasn't been around the whole time in the GD first place🙄

.....

I dunno...or maybe TW IS just a retcon shit show that no one ever wanted..and jensen really did just break our hearts and do us dirty in the end😔
