SPN!
SO UHHHHHHHHH HELLO LIVEJOURNAL.
I honestly was not looking forward to this season premiere. I had been spoiled for a couple things -- like Sam not looking for Dean -- and of course was not really motivated to see it.
But!
I don't know, it wasn't really all that bad!! Maybe because I haven't been around SPN fandom all that much over the summer and I got some healthy distance from it and just don't care anymore? It is completely and totally insanely OOC that Sam wouldn't even try to look for Dean. I mean, there is no excusing it, and I will never forgive SPN for it, and that is sad, but I will deal. I mean. I understand him moving on when he thought Dean was dead and hunting was the thing that has taken everyone he's ever loved. But yeah. Sam Winchester is not going to be in this season as far as I'm concerned. This is someone else who looks like him. "I'm still the same guy," he said. Clearly he's not.
Anyway. I liked him being so insane over the dog, it was adorable. I could not care less about his girlfriend or whatever, and I am glad that when Dean called he just ran off, no questions asked. I ALWAYS LOVE A WINCHESTER HUG. And their emotional breathing and eye-squeezing. *____* My love for you endures despite your insane characterisation, Winchesters. Because I also thought Dean was kind of OOC -- I wouldn't have thought he'd be mad that Sam moved on and didn't look for him. Dean is such a martyr and has always wished Sam could have a normal life and all that, I imagined he would be manpainy and sad and alone but think Sam deserved a life. I do enjoy all the buttsex references that will surely litter the season since Purgatory is supposed to be like prison. "What we did down there was what we had to do," INDEED DEAN. AOSIGNKDSHLMSdhfdhfh.
I ALSO LOVED HOW FUCKED OFF HE GOT WHEN HE FOUND OUT SAM HAD A GIRLFRIEND OMFG I MEAN. THAT WAS PLAYED PURPOSELY JEALOUS-WIFE-Y AND IT WAS GLORIOUS. SAM WAS SO COWED AND DEAN WAS SO UPSET HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAOGNIDHKLDHOISGN. It's okay Dean, he dropped her in a hot second as soon as you were sprung from the pen!!
The dialogue in this episode was hilarious. Dean asking about Sam's girlfriend, but like. Kevin too, with his, "Myself for the girl!!" and Crowley's awkward "LOOK WE GAVE HIM A HAIRCUT..." thing.
Kevin in general was adorable, and I am glad he is back to stay, even if it was because his gf's neck got broken JESUS SPN WITH THE SACRIFICED WOMEN TO GET THE MEN INTO HUNTING MUST YOU REALLY!! But anyway Kevin is so sweet hangin' in their backseat. OH RELATEDLY how much do I love that Sam fixed up the Impala. <33333!!!
Something I HATE HATE HATED: THE FUCKING VET. What the hell was that. NO VET WOULD EVER FUCKING DO OR SAY THAT. INSANE. I MEAN. JESUS CHRIST. SERIOUSLY PISSED.
SFIONSdgkldfiodnfoh anyway. So. I guess that happened! I'm interested to see where this season goes, I suppose, but I'm really really really glad that I went into this not expecting to see Sam Winchester. Because he wasn't in it.
ETA: IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THE VET MAY HAVE BEEN SAM'S GIRLFRIEND??????????? OMFG I DID NOT REALISE WHAT THE FUCK WHY?????? WHY THE ONE THING I TRULY HATED ABOUT THE EPISODE???????
