I don't see a reason for Dean to die in service of saving the world, whereas how things are set up, Sam might have to. So Dean might be able to resolve himself to that particular tragedy, but could Dean deal with the reverse?
But I think it would be no easy deal for Dean to move on either, just less impossible, for all possible values of that.

Oh, I agree. But I think whereas Sam's been focused so long on the end of the world and the particular demons/hunt, Dean began to grieve a while ago, for everything he's lost, including Sam's innocence and the relationship they used to have.
He also had forty years in hell to be without Sam, or anyone he loved, and I think that might make it a little easier for him to get through the rest of his life without Sam.

I agree with Amy. Hell, I think if nothing else, the notion that his eventual destination might still be back down in hell would keep Dean alive, if not especially functional.
I'm stupidly excited for Monday morning and the pilot on TNT at 10 a.m. Like I don't own the DVDs and could watch it whenever I want. Um.
D'oh! Thanks for the heads up! (And me too on the DVDs. Still.)
One of the joys of working at home for me, for sure. No getting out the DVDs, just changing the channel, and instant Winchesters on my screen!
I'm unreasonably excited.
You'll have to keep track of the cuts. Those early eps will probably make even less sense with the extra ad minutes cut out.
I also have the dvds but am unreasonably excited about the TNT premiere. Our little boys are going into syndication. Ima set the recorder now.
ION, the trickster episode rocked again tonight with the reveal of Gabriel. Much Speight love. And you know, I didn't cringe when they were doing Caruso. I just smiled at the silly little silly heads.
I saw Speight on a commercial right after SPN--for the USPS? Toy clown has family at bay on the front porch while it's inside, and the mail carrier tells them to use the Direct Mail box, I think? The dad is Speight. With short dark hair and a mustache. Or his brother. Some relative. The voice is right, the expressions are way less broad. "He's an actor," so I'm thinking it's him. Go, paycheck!
Wow. Watching Criminal Minds episode Open Season. It's kind of eerie how easily it could be mapped into Supernatural - either with the people
being hunted not really being people, or as a Sam and Dean go off the deep end tale.
