supernatural s2 is SO GOOD because every decision has more weight because the after life is still unknown to us. we know there is something after death but we don't know quite what that is. the season starts with tessa the reaper begging dean to come with her. to where? she cannot say. when john dies it’s devastating to the brothers that he’s no longer here but elsewhere. but it’s even more devastating as they come to the slow realization that elsewhere is probably hell, whatever that looks like. sam and dean don't know anything more than the audience does about hell.

there is an effort to exorcise the possessed and save them instead of letting them die because there is no promise of heaven to be made. the ghost in roadkill wants to know what happens when she crosses over and sam and dean just don’t know. where do the monsters go when they die? are there angels? is there a god? sam and dean don’t know. sam more than anything wants to believe. and secretly dean does too. but they just don’t know.

when sam dies where does he go? dean doesn’t know. we never get to see it. and more than that. does dean truly believe that he would be sent to the same hereafter as his brother after everything he has done? all dean knows is that there is a way to damn your eternal soul to hell and there is a way to bring his brother back from the unknown and he will choose that path without hesitation over and over and over again.

the second the angels are introduced we lose that sense of unknown. while the stakes are higher in seasons 4-5 the second we can see behind the curtain it’s over. yes you can damn the world and start the apocalypse but at least you KNOW. you know there is an afterlife. a heaven. a hell. a hereafter. and all the people who die will end up will end up where they belong so how guilty can you feel using a demon knife to kill an innocent? how wrong is it to drain the host for blood? they’ll end up in heaven after all. no more pain. and that is how only the winchester family drama becomes important to the brothers, because they KNOW the end is not the end. there’s more than just ghosts and demons and reapers. there is a heaven. and if there is a heaven every wrong bad thing in the narrative can be brushed away by the characters or the audience as “well at least they are at peace in heaven now.” they do this to jimmy novak and ash and pamela and lord knows who else.

season 2 sam and dean don’t have this opt out. every choice they make is so much heavier because they just. don’t. know.

soulless sam consistently referencing the panic room says soo much actually in this essay I will

In baseball, the "Shot Heard 'Round the World" was a walk-off home run hit by New York Giants outfielder and third baseman Bobby Thomson off Brooklyn Dodgers pitcher Ralph Branca at the Polo Grounds in New York City on October 3, 1951, to win the National League pennant. The game was seen by millions of viewers across America and heard on radio by millions more, including thousands of American servicemen stationed in Korea, listening on Armed Forces Radio. The dramatic victory to secure a pennant was intensified by the cross-town rivalry between the Giants and Dodgers and by a remarkable string of victories in the last weeks of the regular season by the Giants, who won 37 of their last 44 games to catch the first-place Dodgers and force a playoff series to decide the National League champion.

Day 18: Drag

And this is why Castiel is a Dom/Top

[fatallyaddictedtofiction]

Nah i have a bone to pick about demon dean because there was SO MUCH unexplored potential and the potential they did explore it was just like... If dean was soulless.

We could have had dean murdering innocent people for the hell of it. Beating Sam up for being in the same room as him.

They made us root for demon dean (to an extent). They made him kill a douche (people in this show have been killed for less than cheating) and fight Cole (honestly? Pretty much self defense).

Where is the dean that tortured souls in hell for 10 years and liked it. Where is the mark of cain dean that killed people for the rush. He was restraining himself when Sam walked in the room? He shouldve gone feral. The boy he was forced to protect his whole life, the person he was prepared to and DID give his life for over and over again?

He should have no restraint. He should have fought dirty and mean and they just made him a little more like a dick instead.

Dean carrying/grasping and pulling Sam out of the fire not once but twice in the pilot episode?

John may have handed lil Sammy to Dean the first time, but the 2nd time was all on his own. Dean didn’t have to come back (yes, I have seen the deleted scene, however take that out of context to what the viewer sees without access) and yet not only did he come back but he pulled his Sammy out of the line of fire (literally). Dean is hardcore head over heels for his little brother and haddddd the bad feeling which is why he came back to rescue lil brother and be the hero to him 🥺🩷

I failed in this experiment already. Let’s try again in the 2nd episode?

[ebenelephant]

thinking about how prissy dean remembered sam as in the bar scene in 2.15. like jeez, man, might as well have called him a faggot it probably would've stung less.

[lovealwayssay]

I have such mixed feelings about 4.6 Yellow Fever. I think its extremely interesting and sad and funny. I love how Sam really just goes along with whatever Dean needs to lower his anxiety. But also, I absolutely hate how the only reason Dean gets infected is because he’s a bad person. Fundamentally, Dean is a good person. He sometimes acts like a dick, but its only because he cares so much and wasn’t really shown how to express his emotions in a healthy way. It bothers me that they would lump him in with men who did such a heinous thing. Dean is just too good of a person to get this sickness.

[nobodymitskigabriel]

I don't know where fandom got the idea that 5x03 is "just a destiel filler episode". Raphael's electric wings? Jessifer? SA-coded demon blood bar scene? Sam learning that he's Lucifer's destined vessel? All that only to be remembered as a destiel filler episode.
