'Safe'
[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.
Nick's wife? Fridged.
Hmm. I wouldn't have though to call her fridged, because she was never really a presence when she wasn't a dream meatsuit. I guess she was, but Nick didn't fare much better, because he was only introduced to provide a meatsuit for Lucifer.
It's true, but they just killed Nick's family in order for him to step aside and bend over for Lucy. So it's not in service of a major character, but it was one of the female deaths that prompted male anguish and action that came to mind.
Madison? Casualty, not fridged. Still trying to think of others.
I guess my takeaway from the Home scene was always that Mary was accepting blame for something, and until now I never considered that she was expressing sadness. Which makes total sense, except I like my way better.
So then you'd count Bobby's wife as being fridged too?
We found out about her so late, that I don't consider her much. In retrospect, she was the death that made him a hunter, but eh. It made him sad, but it all seemed proportional, if that makes any sense.
Maybe she was fridged the second time. How's that for an honour? Nah, it didn't take.
I think if we'd been introduced to widower hunter Bobby, then I'd call her fridged without hesitation.
Gordon's sister? Fridged.
If fridging included kids, I'd say it was true of Tamara and Isaac's daughter, too.
Pretty much every hunter we've been told the history of has a fridged relative, right?
I think we've only every heard the ones mentioned here -- I don't remember any kind of origin story for Caleb or Pastor Jim or the guys who beat up on Sam in Free To Be. It seems sort of assumed, though.
OR THE GUYS WHO KILLED SAM AND DEAN. I HOPE THEY SUFFERED MASSIVE LOSSES.
Oh my. Tell us how you really feel, dear.
I forgot Elkins the old guy! It's such a common trope, though. Aren't a lot of cops in cop shows/movies turning to the thin blue line because someone was murdered, or doctors go to med school because a relative was ill? Seems likely.
I'd love to know what Ritchie's story was (from Sin City, the Jersey boy), just for a laugh.
Tell us how you really feel, dear.
There was totally not enough "fixit" fic for that part of the episode. Everyone went Samulet crazy, and ignored good cold-hearted vengeance.
