#spn issues

Cause YouTube sucks and I can't find the Sam clips I wanted to watch.

Anyway watched an reaction for 9x01 and 11x17

And it's hard enough to find a good channel who isn't someone with shit taste (Destiel, Minion.) Or full of dumb comments.

Anyway 9x01 some clown said that Sam imagined talking with Death and that it wasn't really Death it was just Sam ego.

Then in 11x17

It was the reactor herself. She seemed like one of the good ones.

But that last bit where Dean talks with the female victim and she says about watching someone you love die.

Which of course is Sam in this case cause you know thats what the ep was about.

She said how poor Dean watched his love Asstiel became Lucifer...

Can I please get an non idiot reaction channel. Please.

Totally agree, my darling.

SPN Issues: Sexism (II)

12x23 || 13x23 || 14x20

Dabb’s been showrunner for three years now and not only has he still not made a recurring female character a series regular (while freely handing out that honour to their male colleagues), he’s also yet to give us a single finale starring the show’s currently best-developed and best-loved female character: Rowena.

In the S12 finale she was killed ignominiously off-screen.

In the S13 finale she was mentioned in a throw-away line which seemed taken straight out of badfic. Personally, I had no desire to see a badfic-like Rowena and Charlie team-up, so I’m not terribly disappointed we didn’t get to watch them interact; but it is telling that their connection was never mentioned again throughout S14. (Just like it’s telling that Mary spent most of S14 hanging out at Donna’s cabin, and yet never had any meaningful interaction with her either.) Who needs connections between female characters, right? We wouldn’t want anyone to start thinking that women aren’t completely determined by their relationships to men.

In the S14 finale we then witnessed a one-side Rowena/Sam phonecall which ended with Sam hanging up on Rowena without a goodbye and her involvement never being referred to again for the rest of the episode. When Chuck showed up with the Colt 2.0, they could have given Rowena a quick heads-up that she didn’t have to “just try” to put together a soul-bomb to take out Jack any longer. Dean had enough time to sadly sit in the shadows of his room and drink, and Sam had enough time to put us through what felt like a hundred iterations of the Pinched Diva Face of Moral Righteousness™, yet neither of them could make the time to call Rowena.

Dabb’s treatment of Rowena perfectly mirrors the Winchesters’, who constantly expect her to be at their beck and call whenever they need help without ever treating her like their equal, and who expect her not to bother them the rest of the time. And it sucks.

Exactly! It's nothing new. We already knew how Cas felt about the Winchesters. What I find especially annoying about that speech is 1. The things he said about Dean actually applied better to Sam, and 2. It contributed nothing to the story, and in fact, was antithetical to the larger storyline (and I say that loosely) that Cas was involved in.

Cas and Jack had previously been set up as parallels to Dean and Sam. Cas was told to kill Jack, but refused to in S12. Cas made a deal to give up his own life in order to save Jack in S14. If Berens (and Dabb, by extension) really cared about the story and what happened with Cas, they would have completed Cas' sacrifice story with Jack by his side.
