If I'm really into the storyline of a show (as with SPN this year), I don't want to know anything about upcoming plots or who future guest stars are playing. But for something I just like and catch when I can (like Castle), spoilers don't impact my enjoyment. And for shows that I think are crap but watch for whatever reason (like Stargate: 90210Universe), the more lead time I have on knowledge of upcoming fail, the better.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Because books.
I just looked up nephilim and confused myself. I never knew there was any definition of them that made them some giant race.

Well, he is a giant. . . do we think THAT is the Winchester family secret?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Things like knowing Adam was coming back really annoyed me this year. Knowing they were going to a convention, wouldn't have. With lines like that, it's safer to stay away from the meaty stuff. But, since I'm happy spoiling myself for other shows, it's difficult with the threads here (in theory, not in fact) to make sure I'm safe.
As things are, google is what spoiled me for Adam, without me even clicking on anything or searching for spoilers. Muy irritating.
do we think THAT is the Winchester family secret?
The long fic I last linked to, Absolution and then Kin, did hinge on Sam being Nephilim, but not through conception, just through taint of blood.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
The whole nephilim thing does seem ripe for fic. Although that could lead me down an mpreg path that I'd just as soon avoid. Anyway, thanks for clearing that up.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Have we considered that Sam might be an angel? Today in "On the Head of a Pin" a streetlight flickered when Anna showed up.

It would be new. We haven't had any indications that you can make angels. Or do you mean that he's possessed by Lucifer? Or Michael? Because I'm pretty sure we're done with that.
Maybe he's Castiel! That's a mess.

Didn't Anna get a body back after it was dead? Can you wear your own meatsuit?

She recreated a body in the image of her own. But she never had a meatsuit--that's what she was born into when she fell and lived her life.
I'm 100% sure that we're getting Sam back, not something Sam-shaped. It might take a bit to get back into the groove, but the show is about brothers, and if that's not really Sam, this isn't really Show. So Sam being dead and this being something riding his facsimile? Really doubtful.

Because books.
That was on this morning -- Cas remarked that her human body was the same after she'd been sucked back into heaven or whatever, and she said she was sentimental and called in a few favors.
