I watched the Ghostfacers episode and did it...did it just more or less sum up the last three episodes
YES we don’t talk enough about how Mr. Ben Edlund pre-emptively criticised EXACTLY WHAT THEY DID IN THE FINALE... I’m just going to copy paste the last paragraph of synopsis from the fandom wiki because it’s funny:
Everyone (minus Corbett) leaves alive the next morning, taking Ed and Harry back to the fireplace to lament over the loss of their friend in a completely exploitative way, even showing the typical reality confessional moment. They show their pilot to Sam and Dean, who warn them that revealing such ghostly secrets usually lands them in straight jackets or gets them a punch in the face or both. Sam and Dean go, but leave a bag behind; Ed pulls out a large electromagnet, which proceeds to erase all the hard drives, including the Ghostfacers pilot. Sam and Dean peel off in the Impala, confessing they didn't think the show was half bad.
I mean. the exploitation of tragic unreciprocated gay confession death for views. the metaphorical wiping of what the show means and its history. jared padalecki driving off and saying the show was good actually
