I sometimes have a hard time reading her stuff because of some of her beliefs about John.
Oh, I totally get where you're coming from. I'm inclined to agree. I think he was a good guy who got stuck in a bad situation and did his best, but made some major mistakes. I do not think Show is his or about him, nor do I think everything on show revolves around him. Major influence? Yes. Key component? Absolutely. Impetus for the Show's original premise (two brother's finding their missing dad)? Duh. But I don't think Show is about him.
Of course, as a Jensen/Dean fan, I see pretty much everything on show in relation to how it affects Dean and how Dean affects it. So I kind of work under the understanding that DW is a big JDM fan, so that's where her interests lie.
I appreciate you allowing me to air my negativity about this episode. As I said, I didn't hate it per se (it certainly could have been worse), but I didn't think it was anything special for a 100th episode. For me, some of the issues I had with this episode, are just par for the course with the show and some of the writing.
You're welcome. :-) I know I'm not in agreement with a lot of the fandom with a lot of things. It's always been that way. As far as this being THE 100TH EPISODE BREAK OUT THE CONFETTI! I overall didn't feel anything SPECIAL about the episode. Yes, there were breakthroughs. Yes, they brought back Adam. Yes, they killed Zach, but up until the very end, it kind of felt like marking time plot-wise. Character stuff was going on, but as far as forwarding the overall action? Not so much.
Which, I kinda can appreciate, in that though it was a milestone episode, I'm kind of glad that it didn't stick out by itself, being something completely off-the-wall and out there. Ya know?
