Yes you may, no promises but sometimes people have said it helps...so what's your poison (just kidding) what do you feel you connect with the most, dolphins, angels or fairies. All answers will be positive, I don't do any other types. Focus on 3 questions but don't tell me them. Once you're ready reply. If you want me to pm answers let me know. Who knows you may find some laughter where you once had confusion and then the right answers show up.

What I see from Carver is a lack of excitement. I find I usually sleep through his interviews so I skip them as what he says will happen isn't what I see on screen. Somehow he does come up with some good ideas, but then the WTF shows up. Maybe he is better off camera but he needs to figure out what the fans see and have his stories match up to what is shown and what he wants to tell. IMO.

I found it funny that Jensen unfollowed Mark Shepperd on twitter, not because he didn't like him but because he is showing too many pics of him working out...lol Both Jensen and Jared have bluegreen eyes. I have them too and depending on what I wear they change color. If it has a lot of blue, their blue, but I found it interesting that Jared's can look brownish, very light and mine never go that color. lol.

I think they care about the show, but one thing I see in teaching is that taking pride in what you do or really editing what you do isn't happening anymore. There is an overall laziness that is happening in society today that didn't happen before as much. I think audience's in general have grown from what we use to accept as great or good TV. Some of the writers are writing for the styles that use to be okay. But because of DVD's, vhs and other methods that the audience can really nitpick an episode, the writers can't get away with some of the stuff they use to do. I see really smart kids not putting much effort into their work and many are telling them that they are the A student. Then they get me and boy are they mad, because suddenly I'm like this is crap, go redo it, not even a high B. So I can agree with both sides of your argument. I think they care but they seem to lack the ability to polish their work and I'm not sure if it is because they are blind and can't see their own short comings or they no longer have someone really fine tuning their stories. But I can say I've felt this way since season 1. They have had some really great ideas, but it felt half baked instead of fully cooked. At first I thought it was because they aren't given much time to write the scripts but now since I know they have way more than 2 weeks, that excuse just doesn't hold water. I think they care, but maybe they are just to blind to see the weakness in their scripts and their isn't someone to say hey do you really mean for this to happen? But I do think that Robbie and Adam really try and care about the show. JMV

That is they way it is with Set designers, they do a lot of work really fast to have it torn down and then build something else. Depending on how much storage they have they will store the stuff they can use again, but most of the time you just try not to destroy the wood during strike and reuse it. Wish I could build like that, but I wasn't paying attention in class thinking I was only going to be acting. If I could go back I would have really learned how to do this, cause I then could build it in my own home....lol. I would love the bookshelves, so maybe they will try to sell a few things. They do create create cool sets for the boys to pretend on. :)

I just don't know if the show will go this deep. Since they don't seem to really think things through, I'm not sure they are thinking this way. I think they will do something stupid, hey this is a cool idea from some movie or show. Then let the fallout happen. It really feels like they had an idea, let's turn Dean into a Demon and then said nah - not really what we want to happen, so we'll fix it this way. The whole Demon Dean for a year turned out to be for naught. They have wasted so many opportunities. The only idea I've come up with that might be interesting is... Dean running off to Purgatory. I figured he would do it, just to save everyone and if he's a monster there, well it won't matter. There's only one person he cares about there and that's Benny. Would Lucifer even really care about Dean now that he has the mark? I still wish Cain hadn't been killed off. One loose tie that hasn't been dealt with is, Where's Mary or John and why are they missing...So they could use them because where the hell are they? But again that means that the writers have really planned this stuff out and not just said oooh here's a cool idea. Let's do this. OOOPS now what do we do?
-
++Crowley ++ Cain -- Ruby 19 - Meg Masters 19 - Azazel 19 - Cain 17 - Crowley 15 - Abaddon 13 - Alastair 11 - Lilith 09 - Ruby Well although I liked Ruby in Season 3 I hated her in Season 4. then add that she seemed to be the cause of the anvils of angst that has never ended since they introduced that pattern so I think I'll just try to kill her off quickly. It's nice to have a goal. I agree we leave out Sam and Dean on this list.
-
Then you have a stupid big sister, lol. I would show you how, then let you get in trouble for doing it wrong...ooops. Now falling for my lying sister...it took me years to figure out she just can't tell the truth...but then again she believes her lies and does have some issues...I think nearly dying 7 times before the age 10 has something to do with it. So most likely it was guilt, but I had no trouble letting her do her own chores. There is a big age difference so part of me felt like parent so I really really get dysfunctional families. Rue if you want me to do a card reading for giggles, I'll do it for free. No promises of anything. lol Although for some reason I'm really good at helping others figure out what to do, but I suck horribly for my own life.

Hey I had to try, but yeah I wasn't real worried that Cas would bite the big one. lol
-
One question that isn't totally clear to me, I thought Cain made the other knights of hell without the mark. My impression is on Dean and Cain have the mark. So this bonds them in a way that he wouldn't bond with anyone else. Now where did Cain go when he died? Still wishing he's not gone because he's such a fun character. Of course it might be fun if Crowley was driving Dean and Sam a little crazy by having so many Dean's and Sam's and neither could tell which one was the original. but trying to search for them only to find they'd been tricked again. A warp version of What Naomi did with Cas trying to get him to kill Dean. It's your fault for making me think this crazy idea...or is it the kids....Boy do I need Spring Break....yeah an entire week off with no students.

Because I like them both! Castiel -- Gabriel + 04 - Castiel 03 - Gabriel Molotov'd with Holy Oil Metatron Hannah Uriel Raphael Michael Zachariah Anna Milton Lucifer Samandriel Balthazar Naomi Gadreel
-
Well I remember faces not names and sometimes I've had to fake that I remembered someone's name when I didn't. Good thing I can act. Lately I don't learn all of my student's names...I know this is really sad. Bad teacher. Sounds like I will be fast forwarding a lot and not keeping it. Will see if they surprise me. Not that hopeful though. :(
-
Castiel -- Gabriel + 12- Castiel 11 - Gabriel Molotov'd with Holy Oil Metatron Hannah Uriel Raphael Michael Zachariah Anna Milton Lucifer Samandriel Balthazar Naomi Gadreel bye Gadreel I've given the reason I liked you but it was really because I liked the actor. So I've almost tied the two left...but I like them both and Cas storyline isn't as compelling as I wish it was soooooo I say tie them up. I know others will disagree with me. :)
-
Castiel -- Gabriel -- Gadreel + 21- Castiel 17 - Gabriel 04 - Gadreel Molotov'd with Holy Oil Metatron Hannah Uriel Raphael Michael Zachariah Anna Milton Lucifer Samandriel Balthazar Naomi I know that Gadreel did some really evil stuff but so has Cas. I like Cas but I really like Tamoh Penikett as he made the character really interesting. So I doubt he will last much longer, I'm not ready to kill Gadreel off. Besides I didn't even blink when Kevin died...why because Supernatural pulled a Lost and has killed too many characters off...so he's gone and Gadreel gone but the storyline with Cas has been pretty weak because unless he is reacting with Dean, I just don't seem to care about him. JMV. :)
-
Gabriel + Gadreel + Castiel-- 31 - Gabriel 30 - Castiel 13 - Gadreel Molotov'd with Holy Oil Metatron Hannah Uriel Raphael Michael Zachariah Anna Milton Lucifer Samandriel Balthazar Naomi Awesome we voted at the same time so got to fix my votes....but leaving what I wrote anyway. :) Well I figured they needed to go out together. I liked Fun Balthazar, of course my first introduction to the actor was General Hospital. Naomi how you tried to get Cas to kill Dean but you failed, failed, failed. I did like her last moment where she remembered her reason for being an angel to begin with. IA they need to make the angels more interesting to get fans on board. the angel storyline isn't compelling and the few they make interesting they kill them off pretty quickly. ETA: I'm sick and in an evil mood...Wonder how long this will last? hee hee

rue and awesome0 I don't think we are that far off of each other's opinions. I know it took me a long time to forgive. And I do fight self esteem issues which is understandable considering all the stuff I've dealt with. It didn't happen over night, it took years and I did take to heart things that were said in the heat of the moment that I never should have, but that is life. In some ways Dean is more youthful than Sam. He didn't break free from John, he didn't honor his desires and instead squashed them so that Sam could have a better life. I can get that but at one point I had enough and like Sam left. So my problem in any argument is I see the middle and if you feel I am not holding my points it is because I believe the truth lies in the balance and that is somewhere in middle ground. Dean is learning this slowly but he is still unable to give in to what he wants. If that makes sense. It took me a long time to forgive and to be honest if it hadn't been other people helping me to look at it differently I don't know that I ever would. I now know how not to react, but it took me a while before I learned how to do that and first I did it all wrong and made things worse. So I can see that behavior from both Dean and Sam. Dean has had some mess up ways trying to get him to look at it differently and I think he has finally seen some of it. I know we are seeing him trust his brother to a major degree but he also knows how awful it felt when Sam asked him to kill him if he turned evil. So he is avoiding that all cost. Dean is messed up and so far I think he is responding well to Sam's efforts. I'm really really hopeful that next season they move to the boys fighting together against the big bads and both actors are saying that is what they want to see happen and it sounds like they have expressed it to the writers. No spoilers because it is what they wish would happen, not what will happen. I kind of think Carver has been willing to stick to his guns about the direction he wanted to go and this season has been enjoyable so if the mess of 8 - 9 can create a Dean that can let go and I agree he needs to do this, I'm all for it.

Darn at halfway so only 1 + from here on.... I'll try to give a eulogy to them but feel free to add too. Gadreel + Samandriel -- Naomi -- 31 - Castiel 29 - Gabriel 18- Gadreel 07 - Balthazar 05 - Naomi 05 - Samandriel 05 - Lucifer Molotov'd with Holy Oil Metatron Hannah Uriel Raphael Michael Zachariah Anna Milton How I liked Anna at the beginning. She gave such comfort to Dean and called him on his shit. She tried to get Cas to open his eyes...but then TPTB decided she had to go looney and that is the part I despise. Zachariah what a fun angel to hate and yet love. He helped us to see future Dean in "The End", tried so hard to get his way but what a delicious way to die. Because of his stupid mistakes he finally got Cas to see the light so for that I must admit I will always enjoy him a bit. :) ETA: what not was....where is my brain??? If you find it send it my way.

I can get what Sam wanted and even needed...but Dean was falling rather rapidly after his father's death and had a burden he couldn't share. Dean's character wouldn't allow him to share and his lashing out is in character. He does later in his own way try to comfort Sam but it's after he's done with his own tail spinning. So although many would love Dean to give Sam what he wanted or even needed, this was the one time I'm glad they didn't. It's the tough guy or I can't look weak mixed with his own anger and doing the right thing just wasn't in the cards. It also shows how much Sam was capable of understanding his brother. He didn't fall for his act and continued to try to reach out. Interesting both actors talk about that now they would have played some moments differently now that they are 10 years down the road. I think it is also the growth of both actors that those scenes might have gone a little more complex, but I can also totally get why Dean reacted in such a negative way. A wounded animal won't always react well. I had a cat that I know if a fire or something bad happened I most likely wouldn't be able to save because she would have attacked me instead of allowing me to comfort her. This is how I see Dean at this moment. His world is falling apart and he can't see reason. So although Sam wanted, even desperately needed it, Dean for the first time couldn't give it to him. This allowed growth for Sam as well because for the first time he really had to dig deep to fight to help someone else. He couldn't do it for his father but he could do it for Dean. He doesn't run away, instead he sticks with it and even reaches his hurting brother. Of course poor baby takes one of the worst beatings ever, but Dean fix her up again. Truly it wouldn't have the same impact if he had beaten up another car. Taking his anger out on baby showed just how far out of control Dean was. I think Sam saw that and wisely waited his time. It's also why at this time of the show I was a brother's fan. I liked Sam and Dean...but Dean has always had a bit more for me. I can relate to both brothers and I like complex characters. For the first time I saw Sam being written a little more complex and not so one dimensional. I get we won't really agree on this but this is one time I think the writer's got it right. Shocking isn't it. :) This is where but I didn't mean it, just didn't work. Dean knew something was up, because that much anger came from somewhere and not just from some spell. If Sam really didn't feel anything like that, it wouldn't have been so easy for the spell to use his feelings against them. That's why ever time those fights happened, no one really believed that they didn't mean it. It was a form of truth and for Dean a part of the wake up call that would really show up in Season 5 in Dark of the Moon. Plus in Season 5, Sam admits to his anger that he really hasn't been able to let go. I think if you come from families that don't fight dirty, you can't get it. I do and have even said some pretty bad stuff in a heated argument. It took me time to forgive and actually create a better relationship. So I learned as a child how to figure out if my strike hurt. If it hit, it caused a big reaction, if it didn't it slid by without a reaction. Of course then they would return the favor. Of course all of this was done at home and what happened at home was never to be shared outside of the family. It's why people tell me I should write stories based on my family because now I spin it in a funny way. Not when I was living it of course, but now it is a story to tell. I just have to figure out how to change the names and keep them from figuring out who I'm talking about. I think to a degree this is what Kripke did. But it is fine if we just don't see eye to eye. LOL

She has some really great vids and yes it is really well done. I play farmville 2, it has a farm full of happy animals...lol but kittens would work too.

I really thought that moment was really transparent but Crowley is so off balanced that he would never see it. He's also the one that might have figured out what Dean might be hiding. Cas and Sam don't usually see some of Dean's behaviors but Crowley has called him on it many times. So what better way to keep something to himself but to get rid of the one person that could rat him out right then. It's a solid plan especially if Cain isn't dead. I can dream can't I????? lol I really wish someone would ask Jensen if he thought that Cain was really dead...I'm still kind of hoping he isn't.

Dean was in denial about a lot of things immediately after his dad died. Lashing out is a natural reaction because for years all he had heard was how bad John was and suddenly doing a 180 is really difficult to take. I can get this on a personal level. A love one died and another loved one talked about how peaceful she looked, I was furious and just wanted to smack her. Why because behind this person's back all I heard from the loved that was still alive, some of the worst things about the person that died. I literally saw red. So Dean's reaction was totally in line with his past and it took time for him to let it go again part of his need to control things. Also Sam has kicked him in the gut a few times when he didn't expect it and that was Season 1, so I can really see it being difficult for Dean to let his guard down to Sam. Besides he has the big brother gene that he just isn't suppose to express what he feels as he must protect baby brother at all cost and not look weak. It's why I liked Dean even during season 1. Sam may say the right words but Dean's couldn't be vulnerable at that moment and I even think a bit of can I really trust you was lurking behind all of his other emotions. So I can see him still being very cautious to trust Sam at this point especially since Asylum had shown Dean that Sam had some buried feelings toward him and he blamed himself for causing Jessica's death. I can get that too, as I still to this day blame myself for my sister getting hit by a car. Was it my fault no, but I didn't trust my gut and I didn't follow my normal pattern of holding her hand as we crossed the street. She got hit because she ran across when she shouldn't have. But I was the older sister and she was the baby sister at age 9. Old enough to know better but still...she's fine and has a family. But my point is no one can say anything to take that responsibility away from me. Like Dean I picked it up willingly but sometimes when your hurting you just can't make sense of your own feelings and you lash out. So I don't think it takes away from why Dean has reason not to trust Sam even though his words may say something different. JMV I don't think my opinion would be different if I had watched it live but I didn't so it might have changed some of my reactions if I had watched Season 1-3 live. I think I want to see Sam trying every way he can to show Dean he is going to do everything in his power to keep him from turning dark again. It's why this season at least I really have enjoyed Sam again. Best of all he really gets why Dean is so scared...he's been there not just once but several times so he should understand how much Dean needs to hear it , even if Dean will never want to appear that weak, although this season he has been the most open, IMO and allowing Sam to see what is really going on with him. I also think that is why Sam is soooooooooo freaked out. ETA: may have over shared, but sometimes I feel that sharing personal experiences helps people to understand my points that I may not be able to state otherwise.
