Theresa, my brains aren't very spicy, I'm afraid.
Your brains are seasoned just right, thank you very much.
In some ways, the way Angel didn't end seems right for a show like this. In other ways, these boys have been fighting for so long, seeing them freed from that would be such a joy.
Oh, I don't think I could take the Angel ending again. It left me bereft for months. I've heard it rationalized a thousand times as a non ending but all I saw was Butch and Sundance. I just don't think I could handle going through that again with Sam and Dean. I'm sorry if it is trite or unimaginitive, but I really need these boys to have a happy ending. It would be sweeter if Bobby and Cas could be happy as well.
-signed overinvested and knows it.
I would have loved a proper unhappy ending for S5. It seems less urgent now that one or both of them die, but I'm not looking forward to curtainfic after. I want them, at best, two or three together on the road, worst one dead. Properly dead, other brother doesn't fuck with things.
I could handle that scenario, I think. I was all for the unhappy ending in S5. That window closed for me though I think.

dooo eeeeet iiiitaaaaaa
(unless you hated the movie, of course)
I don't think S1 or S2 JP would have been capable of RoboSam, acting ability-wise; the fact that he really has improved is what makes RoboSam possible. I also think the non-con resouling was pretty darn relevant and emotional, even without a soul.
This is all very true. And, you know, yay! But I'm always afraid the writers will fall back on the usual of filtering Sam's experience through Dean. I hope they don't.
I'm with Theresa on not wanting the Butch and Sundance ending--not another Angel ending. But rather that than one brother dying and one left to soldier on. Alive together, or dead together, I don't think my heart could stand another 5.22.
Aw, S. brought me the TV Guide with the guys on the cover. The picture inside is pure awesome. I'm trying to decide whether or not to read the article.
It's full of spoilers, Amy.
A lot of them were for Friday's episode, but I saw some other stuff and backed away quick. Ah well. I can look at the pretty.
Has anybody found the inside picture online yet?
I just realized I have interviews from the LA con with Jared about Sam's storyline this season, and with Jensen about directing that I'd bookmarked to listen to after they weren't spoilery anymore. Guess I should go do that.
Now I'm tempted to go get the TV guide. Shoot.
