justice for sam

If the spnepisodebracket craze has shown us anything, it's that the supernatural fanbase is extremely divided, with the lowly sam stan seemingly at the bottom of the pile. sam is always last in polls, so this is a bracket for the 10% or so who always votes for him. because yeah, there's 327 episodes of Supernatural, but how many are popular because of a dean or destiel moment? how many good episodes are drowned out because they focus on sam?

i've chosen, with some crowdsourced peer review (special thanks to @spneveryseason, @suncaptor, and @ambersock!) 125 episodes that are Sam Relevant. Some are extremely sam-centric, some just have a shot where sam looks like he's being crucified that gives me brain worms -- i tried to be generous about it to keep a relatively even seasons distribution! matchups will be random and polls will last 24 hours each. in the tradition of @spnepisodebracket (who this is obviously inspired by and would not be possible without!) i'll try to rb a gifset for every episode in the poll!

a final note: no this is not that serious but the criteria for voting here should be how good the episode is as a SAM episode, not as anything else, so please vote accordingly! i am making this for people who actually enjoy sam and if that is not you, then this is not the poll for you!

with that out of the way, here is the compiled list of episodes! voting starts this sammy sunday, 3/26!

I saw you recently rb a puckurt post , so now I have to ask what your opinion is on their development through the seasons . They have such cute background moments and that scene where puck looks adoringly at kurt in heart just makes me want to see more dynamic

hi anon! thank you for the ask <3

puckurt is.....a bit of a mixed bag for me. some days i really love them, other days i'm a little iffy. but generally i tend to really like them, particularly as the dynamic starts to shift.

s1 and early s2 are what's hardest for me, given the way puck is bullying kurt, the things he says, etc, but i think toward the end of s2 and s3 is where things really shift. forgive the obnoxious klaine fan in me but i really do think a lot of it comes down to kurt meeting blaine and his time at dalton. that period of time was so healing for him and such a needed break from the stress at mckinley, and i think a byproduct of that is him being more open and willing to connect once he returns. he learned that the world isn't always such a terrible place, that people can be good and kind and want him for exactly who he is, and i think that really helps him. being away, he realizes how much he misses his friends and his old school, and i think there's a definite shift in how he approaches them bc of that, when he comes back. (might expand on this in a future post bc kurt when he leaves in 2x08 vs. when he comes back in 2x18 are. so different, honestly)

but i think this is a change puck notices, as well, bc there seems to be this shift from kurt being written off as the gay kid that doesn't really fit in to him being seen and taken seriously for who he is. they work together to stage that intervention for rachel in 2x18, they have that lil moment where they're cracking up in the background in 2x21, etc.

that moment in heart is so cute!! puck finally getting over the way he used to see kurt as the loser gay kid and possibly finding him....attractive? that's development, if i do say so myself. i'd also bring up 3x20, where he puts on the dress after hearing kurt refuse throughout the ep. i feel like the old puck wouldn't have thought twice about it, and even made fun of kurt not wanting to do it, and this gesture feels very no, fuck it, he's not going to do it and we shouldn't keep asking him to, i'll do it instead. (there's also a lot going on with puck in this ep that i think also factors in, but that's another post) it just feels like puck finally sees him as an equal and takes what he says seriously, if that makes sense? i think puck develops a deep respect for kurt and i can def see that blurring into attraction he might not even consciously be aware of.

one other thing i want to bring up is 5x03. their scene in that ep is....difficult, for obvious reasons, but i think it illustrates the culmination of kurt's development and puck's response. puck resorts to old shitty tactics reminiscent of the way he used to insult kurt, but kurt has grown up so much since then. he meets puck exactly where he is and gives it right back to him, dares him to behave the way he used to, and leaves puck kind of stunned? kurt's strength here is so striking. and i think that's really what i like most about puckurt, ultimately. i love watching puck, in particular, go from writing kurt off and being awful to him, to being kind of in awe of his strength and the way he carries himself. it says a lot about them both.

#thank you for the ask! :) this was really cool to think about tbh #puck can be a difficult character for me sometimes but i do love this dynamic #dalton changed kurt in so many ways and i think that really is what sets him up for a lot of development #now i really want to make a separate post about that lol #puckurt #glee #glee meta #kurt hummel #noah puckerman #answered #anonymous
