Blood will Flow

This, times a bazillion. I made a pact with myself (and fandom) that I wouldn't be a Debbie Downer. (But I'll still concrit, if I feel so compelled.)

So I'm just sorta putting my fingers in my ears and LA LA LAing when that little voice inside says "Ah, those were the days, huh?"

Yeah, in older seasons, the writing was just plain better. Period. I just started rewatching 'Scarecrow' and that first argument, where Sam brings up how much of a yes-man Dean is to their dad and then gets left to hitch-hike to California ... SO GOOD. Their fight had pain and believability and felt so smart.

Now, I watch for the pretty and loyalty and collecting new canon to play with. But it sure isn't for the zippy plots anymore. Ah well. C'est la vie!
