That's it...there is no doubt left in my mind. The powers that be at Supernatural have officially lost their minds.
With a mean glare, shaking my head in utter disbelief, I stared at the screen as it was revealed that a beloved, multi-dimensional, fabulously played, Pagan god, was really.... get this..... an archangel all along.
Yup..that's right. We are supposed to believe that since his very first introduction, (Tall Tales was it?) the craftily played Trickster (Richard Speight whom I met and just loved!!) is really, Gabriel.
Now, isn't Gabriel the archangel supposedly protecting Chuck? (I may be wrong in my recollection...I'm not into the whole angel thing). But, if it is indeed good ol' Gabe protecting Chuck, when does he have time to cause so much mischief and mayhem in the human world?
That aside..... WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
It was one thing for Kripke to bring back the ever so enigmatic Croatoan as an evil zombie-inducing plague of the future...but to try to tie in a pre-existing character who was solidified in the Pagan order of things as a Christian symbol all along is just beyond the realm of understanding. To hell with all this apocalypse stuff. This may actually be what gets me to stop watching the show.
As it is, the last episode was ALMOST bearable, and there were some entertaining tid-bits...but I'm ready to be rid of Bobby. Either get him out of the wheelchair (which doesn't seem to be serving any purpose other than being a receptacle of self-pity), or get over being a "broken" man...I'm tired of it.... Just gratuitous wallowing. Don't we already have enough of that with Dean and Sam???
*still shaking head in disappointment and horror* I used to ask what they did with "my" show.... now I just throw my arms up and throw in the towel and say, you can have the damn show. I just don't enjoy it any more.

Also agree about Bobby - fix him or let him stop bit**ing about being in the chair. He's not the type that would sit around (no pun intended) and pitty himself, he spent a good many times while the boys were hunting sitting at home feeding them info from his books, it's not like he needed to be up and walking then.
I'm not going to give up on the show just yet, it's the only one I watch every week when it's on. I do hope it gets back to what it once was, but don't see it happening, atleast not in this season.
That doesn't mean you're gonna leave us too, does it?
That aside... I agree. They ruined him. I do not feel it at all. For the first time, I do not only question (coz that has happened before..), I even doubt Kripke's plan. I cannot say I see how this was part of the original plan. He was an angel from the start? I just cannot believe that. And it sucks. Kripke, whom I had such trust in, him and his great plan has ruined his amazing show.
I even sat there, listening to ex-Trickster (*cry* I want him to still be the Trickster! Why did they have to ruin him!?!?
and I agree w/Supes, I'm just not as into this season!
oh, and BTW, hiya Shazzy!!!! Ange's baaaaaack!!!!
