So maybe the acting in spn is mediocre. I can't disagree with that. but those guys do have screen chemistry that is a little bit unmatched it must be said. they walked onto the set of this silly monster hunting show day one and had to play estranged brothers with years of complicated history who are kind of regressing into an intense familial codependence all while delivering both the most realistic sibling banter and the silliest exposition lines youve ever heard somewhat compellingly and they said bet and jensen said also i will be infusing my performance with a sort of heartbreakingly desperate loneliness and jared said thats cool I'm going to be the bitchiest little brother anyone has ever seen but you WILL be able to tell within .5 seconds how much my character has missed his family as well and kripke said excellent now can you step back you are standing in the light and I need you fully ensconced in shadow
do you think michael taught adam languages the human way. do you think adam tried to explain what his favorite foods tasted like. do you think michael told adam about the creation of the universe and adam told michael about like. his favorite tv shows and the stuff he was learning in school and what it actually felt like to be loved by your parent
Okay look. I know they were planning to make Sam the main character when the series started. And I love Sam. Shoutout to all the Sam girls, you’re doing great work.

Realistically it may be for the best that she doesn’t come back, because this is Supernatural and she would have been killed off for Dean’s manpain, probably sooner than later.
But in an alternate universe where Supernatural is capable of being normal about women and black people and they actually let Dean and Cassie become a ride-or-die couple? I’d’ve been hooked right in.
