I haven't been around too much this past couple of weeks - it's a rough time of year, because I am missing my mom something terrible, and work is just a ridiculous situation. (I keep thinking, I graduated from high school in 1972, but apparently, for some people, high school NEVER ENDS. We're all in our 50's? Doesn't matter! Let's play "Mean Girls" LOL!!!!) It just makes me enormously tired.
But I'm good with Show this season. True, I'm not nearly as excited about it as I was back in S2 and S3, but that was the fun of a new, shiny love. Show and I are kind of used to each other now. It's like, "Could you take out the trash, PLEASE?" "Okay, if you stop leaving your stuff all over the table!"
I'm getting the sense that a big chunk of the fandom won't let go of their anger over the loss of Cas/Misha, so even if Show came up with The Best Episode EVER in the History of Television, they'd still be disgruntled (and loud about it). Another chunk is angry over the loss of their ardent J2 fantasies. So yeah - it's tough to find a sandbox that's not contaminated, these days. I've been contenting myself with just reading the flisties' more RL-oriented posts, and chatting with them about those things.
I've only heard one plot-oriented spoiler lately. I will say, it perked up my eyebrows. (In a positive way.) The casting stuff, I haven't been impressed with, because I don't know those particular actors.
