Supernatural : 6x06 : You Can't Handle The Truth

[certainthings]

So, some spoilers for this ep but mostly I think I want to talk about the promo for next week's ep.


I liked it.

I did not like Bobby saying that Dean was his favourite. I want him to like them both equally.

I like that Lisa is done with Dean. I hope her and Ben stay gone. They don't really have a place on the show.

I do not understand why Jared's acting is so not ... well, good. I mean, he looks like he's lying, he looks insincere. Which, I get that he WAS and IS. Only, he's supposed to look, sound ... seem like Sam. And he just wasn't at all. And why didn't anyone (on the show, obviously) pick up on this shit? Why did Jared choose to go that route and not just do his normal Sam act and maybe change something *slightly*.

Ugh.

If Dean had punched Sam once, perhaps twice, I might have understood that. But punching the shit outta him? I didn't like it. Made my insides all ouchy.

* * *

And now. Spoilers based on the promo.

So, Sam doesn't have his soul. I don't think that explains why Sam has no emotions or feelings. Bobby didn't have his soul for awhile and he was still Bobby. Why is Sam different? Is he more prone to evil because of who he is or is his soul trapped in hell and being influenced down there? Does a soul really make that much of a difference on what your character is like? Or is having no soul just a real good excuse to be a right bastard?

I'd really like to know how people would react if it was the other way around, if it was Dean being all souless and douchey and letting Sam get vamped and such. Would there be a great difference in reactions or would it be how it is now?

I'm not surprised that Dean is Bobby's favourite but I don't like it.

This damn show.

I'm sure I have things to say, I just don't know how to word them

I lol'd. You know very well what would happen. There'd be a chorus of "Awwwwww, poor BABY" from around the world, and some extra "This is all SAM'S FAULT" to follow.

I'm pretty sure that whatever you're thinking, I'm right there, creepily agreeing. :D

Yeah, probably I just like to think/pretend that we'd all be fair in our judgement.
