I handwave the sleeping on the floor thing as the meta of not wanting to build more sets.

Have they shown it, though? I don't remember it being canon. And there's no fanon excuse.

I can buy that one room might be taken up with storage, if they need to bunk together. There's no real reason a single man would need to maintain more than two bedrooms.

Have they shown it, though?

Yeah, in the episode where Cas tells Dean to show him some respect. Sam's on the couch, Dean's on the floor, Dean talks to Cas in the dream!kitchen and gets the big smackdown, and the boys are adorably sock-feeted.

PANIC ROOM.

Sorry, I can't get past that. The idea of the iron panic room fills me with glee every time.

Sam's on the couch, Dean's on the floor

4x02 or thereabouts. then? Thanks.

And they're both sleeping clothed. I guess you can fanwank that away as them not sleeping normally.

I can kind of see it, if they used to bed down in the living room when they were kids, that could still seem like the right place to sleep even if there were more reasonable alternatives.

Wouldn't kids be more likely to get a room? At least the Weechester stories I can think of them had them either in a room, or completely outside in a trailer.

Also, have we seen Bobby's TV?

I like to think Bobby has a secondary TV in a secondary panic room, stocked with a Man Fridge and an ginormous fucking flatscreen.

He watches NASCAR, hockey, and football on it when he can.

Sorry, Jen. He's just a NASCAR kinda dude.

Oh, and he's got a soft spot for NFR.

Of course.

He watches NASCAR

He's totally a Mark Martin fan. That old guy still motors, man.

Around that ep, it feels like there were a lot of scenes where they'd given up going to bed properly, e.g. in sleep clothes and under the covers. I fanwank that they were up late researching and simply crashed downstairs out of convenience.

It could also be that they would feel defenseless if they were so far from the front door?
