I will have to look at an ep guide to remember specifics. I have been really annoyed with the mythology of the angels/demons. The characterizations of angels are all over the map. Also with how demons come about, all people who go to hell can be come demons? or only some? Angels were made by God, people in heaven cannot become angels? Then there is a finite # of them? Reapers are angels? There was something about Cupid that bugged me. I just wanted more consistency with all of that stuff.
Watching it so fast there were also main character inconsistencies that took me out of just watching, I think that was mostly the middle seasons, 6-9 maybe.
I hate Metatron. I kinda hate Charlie. I liked Bobby, Jo, and Ellen. Garth, I liked at first, then no. Liked first Ruby, not second Ruby. Liked first Meg, hated second Meg at first then she grew on me. Meg and Castiel should have hooked up.
Didn't like the Benny storyline or the Naomi storyline. Love Gabriel.
Still haven't looked at an ep guide, but that is some general thoughts.
Oh and huge surprise, I see no slash.
Angels are created by God, so they are finite--you cannot become one. That's been consistent. They pretend reapers have always been angels, but no. They "omitted" that detail in their first few appearances, as kindly as I can put it.
Not all people who go to hell become demons--I think there's some choice there. John never became one, for instance, and even though Dean had been torturing for ten subjective years he wasn't one yet either.
I really don't get liking Gabriel, but the volume of it in fandom has inured me somewhat. He was a selfish coward who only nutted up at the last moment and was ineffective with it.
Benny bugged me less upon rewatch - though I can't explain why. Maybe because I hated whats-her-name (the vet that Sam shacked up with) more?
And when demons are killed? The go to purgatory or just disappear forever? Angels?
We are to assume, I think, that being killed with the colt or anything that does that flashy effect means you're terminated forever. And, concomitantly, that *killing* a demon or an angel ends them utterly.
Amelia--utter despisation, or whatever that noun is. She had no upside, and the actress's voice didn't help matters any.
Can anyone give me some good Sam or Jared tumblrs that don't hate on Misha-Cas or Jensen-Dean? I really don't have enough of him on my dash.
I vastly preferred Gabriel as a Trickster to being an Archangel. Have not gotten over how much I dislike the portrayal of Metatron (it's so wrong that he was taking dictation!SO WRONG!)
I'm not sure how I'm supposed to get past Mystery Spot, in all honesty.
How do you think Metatron was supposed to be portrayed?
As the Voice of God, not a scribe, basically. It just sticks in my craw.
So your stance is that he spoke for God, not repeated/transcribed what God said?
I can't see Show going to full fledged Word of God while the Chuck question is unanswered officially.
Repeated is fine, it's the writing down I object to.
Possibly pretty far from rational, but I can't always choose where I draw my lines.
Chuck, for example. I will never accept Chuck being God.
