Let’s Discuss: Supernatural Season Ten Happiness Thread
I know there are happy “Supernatural” fans out there. Unless all those comments of joy about our show on Twitter week after week are coming from all unusually happy people that just like joining in on fun even though they’ve never seen the show, there’s a bunch of you that love “Supernatural” for what it is and want to shout it from the rooftops. Or shout it from something more potent, social media. Well this thread is for you.
Happy that the brothers are together? That Dean has been cured by Sam, even though the Mark of Cain is still an issue? Happy with the angel story and what’s happening with Crowley? Happy that Supernatural is on the air another season and you can’t imagine life without it? Share all that infectious enthusiasm here. Spreading joy releases endorphins, and we all could use a boost.
Alright, now that the disclaimers out of the way, it’s time to let loose. I know you’ve been bursting with enthusiasm and want to say why Supernatural is making you happy as a loon. Let’s discuss!
Well i love Supernatural so much that even season seven my least favorite season, looking back i love that season too. More than for me, I’m happy about this season because Sam fought to get Dean back and i know most of fandom are happy about that. Season 8 is one of my favorites but a lot of fans weren’t happy with it so it just reassuring to my piece of mind that fans could be happy about that part of this season. I love the boys and although I’m a Dean girl, I’m glad we got some insight into Sam’s head at the beginning of the season. Months ago i wouldn’t have care as much but reading Alice reviews and recaps has made me appreciate Sam more and i understand this character now. I love how their relationship has been this season because they are both worry about each other and caring for each other and i felt like that was missing a little bit last season. 🙂 I think this season its always going to hold a special place in my heart because its the first time I’m watching Supernatural live (I found Supernatural this summer) and because every time i think about the 200th episode i get teary-eyed ( seriously i love it).
Im really happy with this season so far. Hopefully it just keeps on getting better.
The new fans that are discovering the show for the first time is what makes me happy. I love the fact that new fans are just as passionate as those that have been with the show from the beginning. The theme of SPN is family, whether we agree or not we are all here because we joined the family. I love that.
I fall somewhere in between being delirious happy and bitter. However I do love this show still and I am enjoying this season this season very much. I like the lack of underlying animosity between the guys. 🙂
I love this season. I can’t tell you how happy I am to finally get back to a season that’s focusing on the boys. We’ve done the end of the world stuff already. You can’t really top the apocalypse. I loved s6 and I liked s7, but trying to find something bigger than the apocalypse, well I don’t think that’s really possible and I don’t necessarily believed it should’ve been attempted…because sadly the result was a lot of dislike for s7. While the angels falling was very exciting and made for an awesome season finale….the angel story itself isn’t all that exciting as much as I think it’s been done so that jared and Jensen can get their well deserved days off:D. I do adore metatron though, but the whole angel vs angel stuff….kind of filler fluff for me. I love Crowley and adore every minute he’s on and I like that they are getting him back to doing what he does best…while it’s nice to see him struggle with addiction to humanity, Crowley is best served while being deliciously bad….this fawning over dean was a bit over the top…so it’s nice to see him get back to his business at hand…whatever that may be.
I can’t even count how many interviews carver has spoke about the layout for this season. he’s explained from the beginning how this season is going to be different. how it’s going to be character based and more personal. he told us that there isn’t going to be a big myth arc as there has been, but that it’s more that the big bad will sneak up on us. I was thrilled to hear about this. I am one of those who enjoys the focus on the boys and their personal journey more than any big myth arc…so I was so glad to hear that we’d be getting back to their relationship. There is still myth arc here. The moc is a major part of the story and the boys have to find a way to deal with it. But this year has been so enjoyable in watching these boys begin their relationship anew in a way. The love was and always will be there, but there is a fundamental change that i’m starting to see here. Their relationship is starting anew as they are as men and not as they were as boys. So much has happened. They have been through so much….and the genius of it all is that they’ve ea. been through the same or similar situations at one time or another….and now, for the first time, show is using their similar circumstances as a way to accept who they are for themselves and regarding ea. other. they are literally walking in ea. other’s shoes. There is an understanding now that wasn’t there before. The boys are more honest with ea. other than they have ever been. They are growing closer more and more with ea. episode…not that they weren’t close before….but close in a way of truly understanding ea. other. It’s not that sam is falling for what dean is trying to sell, it’s the opposite. sam knows exactly what’s happening with dean and he’s being patient and careful as not to become defensive and push dean away….and it’s working because dean is opening up to sam more and more with ea. episode. dean may not realize it, but he’s depending on sam more and more and sam is there for him….he’s right there….and it’s sam’s faith and love and perseverance that will get dean through this dark journey. sam told dean once that there was a light at the end of the tunnel….well dean is in that tunnel and sam is dean’s light.
this season exemplifies that like no other season has…..the building of their relationship anew…it’s an incredible story and one I’ve been waiting for….so yes, i’m enjoying this season very much….I’m looking forward to watching the boys continue to grow closer in a new way….a more mature way….an honest way…..it’s so very refreshing….:D
Very well said I agree.
Ditto.

Wow, sugarhi15 – What you said! And you said it so much more clearly than I could have. Exactly how I’m feeling about this season and the boys relationship. I’m loving that the focus is mostly on the boys and not some ‘we have to save the world’ apocalyptic angel/demon mess up. The underlying arc can be ticking away in the background as the main theme is the brothers together again for a change as opposite to being completely at odds as the last few seasons have shown.
Thanks so much for this post!!
Well, Sugarhi15 sums up my happiness completely! I actually have two articles in the works for the winter hiatus to express my happiness. So I’ll save the rest for when those are finished. But, suffice it to say, I am very happy with Season 10! 🙂
I am looking forward to your articles. They should be a great fun read.
Can’t wait for those articles either! Thanks elle2.:)
Me too!:)
this is an off topic question…..but then again, its all about the happiness….right….so I was damn happy after finishing this ep, it was slow, but it got there….anyway, the coming attractions for eppy ten were kind of awesome that I failed to see when we were coming back…..could someone tell me when we come back?
oh and elle2, really looking forward to reading your articles during hiatus.
I would like to know as well. January sometime I guess?
January 20!! well that isn’t very happy
holy loly batman…that sucks….:p…what’s that in hell time? 😀
I don’t want to give spoilers away so I will be careful….but the coming attractions for when we come back….that wasn’t only eppy ten right? that seemed like a promo for the next few eps…
what’s that in hell time? 😀
HA!
West coast here haven’t watched it yet. But yes they do sometimes show clips from several upcoming episodes.
This show means the world to me, I do have some issues, like a lot of issues with the way they developed the arc this season, however there’s nothing on earth that will stop me from watching and supporting the show. Out there may be a lot of great tv shows with the most amazing writers ever but none of those have done so much to my insignificant life. I adore this show and will stand by it till the end. I am so happy newies are becoming part of the spnfamily and I super super happy about the new season. I will always love this show. always. I owe it to the boys.
Enjoying season 10 mostly. A few glitches but overall solid episodes with superb acting not just from the leads, but the supporting cast as well:Ruth Connell, Kathryn Love Newton, Aaron Wade…. Not sure about the recon on John W. but then again it is Dean’s take on his Dad.
