I think the writers are aware of some of the problems this season (Sera Gamble has been asked a few times now where the hell Sam went to and her answer usually is "He's there and I think he's grown a lot and you'll see it! Promise!" but she was saying that about 4.09 so...), I just don't think they care. The nastier side of me though would point out that this entire season has been nothing but fanservice to the loud and vitriolic side of fandom that spent all of last season swearing up and down that they were DONE if they didn't get rid of those two bitches and give Dean some respect already. And I know that's entirely untrue and probably not what the writers were going but... so far Kripke has not said all that much about one brother while the other has been praised pretty openly. And that's where I start getting a little too fed up with the whole thing. Bad plot and melodrama aside, I'm just getting too much Dean and Dean's new blue-eyed fanboy and it sucks because I liked Dean fine before this season. Now I've learned to just do other things while he and his shiny angel are onscreen.
Thanks for the link though, I'll have to read it tonight after dogwalk. Mmm dogwalk. <3 <3
