Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?

Because books.

I think it's hard for anyone in an hour-long drama to find movie roles, too, simply based on scheduling, right? After the show is over they can grab for more roles that are filming wherever, whenever.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Right, but in S2 they were trying to find YED. There's always some overarching goal, just like in BtVS or Angel.

But there's no reason there couldn't be this again. That's what I'm saying, though maybe not too well.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

What was behind Jared's dubious choices?

That young actor need to get his face on screen as much as possible--recognition factor, so producers and casting people at least know his face when a project comes up.

Oh! I thought you were saying there didn't need to be a goal. You just want the more human, personal stories along with! Which is also a-okay with me.

I completely agree with Lee. I don't think that's a surprise, since I've been vocal about that all season--probably last season too.

I want more "Killing things, saving people. The family business." And I'd like the show to go out on that note--helping ordinary people, doing good on a human level--rather than "We saved the world! Now we're going to Disneyland!" or heaven or something.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Maybe defeating Lucifer creates a civil war in Hell that spills over into the physical world. That could easily take a whole season to mop up.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

They've planted some seeds for that.

I like it!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmm. I've been thinking of the brothers dying as a result of the battle with Lucifer, and that they probably can't with season six becoming more likely. But Castiel could totally buy it.

As can Bobby, but that's just too much in a season where we lost Ellen.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It's entirely possible that both could buy it in the big climactic battle and then get brought back for Season 6 by another agency. Castiel and Anna would both be disposed to do so if either is left standing at the end, and others might have their own reasons.
