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.

Still my favorite Shazzy. Awww, hun. Hopefully you'll see something in the time to come that will bring you back. I agree wholeheartedly about Bobby. The old Bobby wouldn't let a couple of bum legs get him down. He'd supe up that wheelchair and kick some demon/angel @$$.

For a good part of the episode I figured that Zac had taken the form of the Trickster, would have made sens, with his wanting them to "play their parts", but not too happy it was Gabe either. I don't like it when a show goes back and REWRITES what we already where told was fact... Kind of the same way they messed with Dean's necklas. He was a great character, now, not so much.

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.

KDT....I tried...I really really tried...but you know that I think the whole show and plot has been going downhill since last year. I've hung in there long enough. I may still tune in occasionally, but it won't be my weekly thursday ritual anymore :: sigh :: I miss the good ol' days!

You gonna leave the boys?!? Shazzy!
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!?!? ) talking about the brothers having to kill eachother..and I felt nothing. And I thought to myself, why am I not more emotional about this? 2-3 years ago, I would have been bawling my eyes out. I used to get all chocked up at the thought of brother vs. brother. I mean, the secret from John, Dean had to kill Sam, all of that, and Dean's one year left,, them leaving eachother, like the very toned down end of Bedtime Stories, with "That's what you want me to do, Dean? Just let you go?" and Dean leaves... The breaking up between the brothers, that one was all toned down, and it got to me. And now...nothing. I miss being as enthusiastic as I used to be about this show. There was a time when my week was based around getting to dl the newest ep as quickly as possible. Now, I occationaly almost forget that it's my SN day. Sure, I have more going on in my life now than I did 3 years ago, but it's not just me, it is the show. It's just not the same as it used to be. And it's sad. I am so sad this has happened. But I'm gonna stick with it. I am a loyal viewer. If I have managed to stick with SV all these years, then surely I can stick with SN. I may not enjoy it as much, but it's not as drained as SV. It's just sadder coz SV never had such a hold on me as SN has/had.. This is exactly why I've rated SN 9.9 on here, not 10. And why I always say L&C and SN as my fave shows, not SN and L&C. Coz L&C is done (too soon ) and I enjoy it all the way to the end, SN is still not done, and I took my precautions in case something like this might happen.. It's still one of my two fave shows, I still love it for what it's been, but I am really starting to worry... And I'm gonna shut up now, I got a feeling my comment may almost exceed your blog

'Trickster' being Gabriel, major suckage!!! I guess when you start with dubious theology in the first place you get to a point where you have to start changing things...

and I agree w/Supes, I'm just not as into this season!

oh, and BTW, hiya Shazzy!!!! Ange's baaaaaack!!!!
