Supernatural: 7x08: Season 7, Time For a Wedding!

Things That I Liked:
Uhm ...

Things That Were Pretty Okay:
Well ...

Things That I Didn't Care For:
How about ...

ALL OF IT. Oh, Sweet Moses. What the hell was this episode?

I like Emily Perkins. Okay, I really liked her in Ginger Snaps and something else that I can't think of but every time I see "Becky" I like her a little less and that makes me sad.

And how ... why did they decide that Becky represents the majority of fans? I know I'm a nutjob at times but I have zero desire to drug, kidnap and uh, at the very very least think about raping any well known person. Or any person. At all. Ever.

I also had no real opinion on Sera Gamble.

Then I read this. "The episode, which Gamble said “has elements of meta,” will be one of the season’s “lighter, funnier episodes,” but will “not attempt to tread in ‘French Mistake’ territory.”

How is any of that lighter and/or funnier? Why would she say that? She knows she's a girl right?

Ugh.

Then I was thinking, 'Well, at least the ending was sort of nice.'

And in some ways it's nice. In sort of sad very co-dependent way that Dean doesn't know anything outside of looking after Sam.

However.

After awhile of thinking of fictional conversations between Sam and Dean, I was reminded of an episode awhile back.

When Sam said, "Hey. I've got this demon blood problem. So. I'm going to leave."
And Dean replied, "Yeah. That's a great idea. I've got my bestest buddy Cas to hang with and clearly Bobby loves me more."
Then Sam was all, "Uh ... That wasn't quite what I expected."
Dean was just, "Oh, well. Tough titties for you, I guess. Hey, you want the Impala?"

And I just. I know that sometimes people hit rock bottom. And you just have to let them and then be there for them when they start climbing back up. Or send them on a magical quest.

I know that episode was awhile back. But I still don't like that Dean didn't try and fight Sam about that. Didn't try and tough love the shit outta Sam.

And now Sam's all. "Hey, we're okay now. We're grown ups. We can take care of ourselves now. Yay!" Dean's all, "BUT I CANNAE LOSE YOU, BABBY. YOU ARE ALL I KNOW."

Which on the one level, I really love and and enjoy. Like a lot. But on the other hand. I don't understand ... why now? I mean other than Dean's bestest bud is no more.

I think there might be some sort of sense that is buried amongst the babble. Maybe.

On principal, I've decided that this episode doesn't exist and therefore I will not be watching it. As far as I'm concerned there's 7x07 and 7x09 (which I hope to hell I don't have to skip too because yo, I'd be pissed!). I do like Emily Perkins. However, I don't like the picture they are painting of the fans every time she's in an episode. I, for one, am NOT like Becky. I will never be like Becky and I never WANT to be like Becky. End of. It seems that the writers of this show think all the fans are batshit crazy. HELLLOOOO I'M NOT ONE OF THEM and I know you aren't either and I can name half a dozen more that aren't either. I wish they'd knock it the hell off, kill Becky and be done with this fan service bullcrap. It's bad enough that time after time they keep coming back to this. It was funny ONE TIME. Now, it's just annoying.

Thank you. :D

That's been building since Friday, LOL. It felt good to get it out. :)

I was thinking that but then I thought. No. I am going to commit this episode to memory. That way, should I ever see Jared or Jensen in public, I can run up to them. Glomp them. Maybe pepper their cheeks with kisses. And while they're freaking out, their wife yelling at me and hitting me, and Clif is pulling back his arm and making a fist to punch me in the face. I can be all, "Oh, no. You cannot act this way. I am a part of fandom that you all think is adorable and funny."
