Supernatural at Comic Con
Am I the only one who really didn't feel all that excited about Supernatural at this year's Comic Con? I found barely any write-ups about the panel even though they had all the usual suspects there, Jared, Jensen, Misha and Mark. But it made such a little splash this year... I think the comic book movies that held their panels in Hall H this year overshadowed pretty much everything. Still...
It all feels like, been there, done that. Once again, it's a "new world" where angels now live on Earth, with their powers but unable to go back to heaven. How many times have we heard that? That it's a "new world"? And nothing ever changes.
Cas will be living with the boys and they now keep Crowley in their dungeon? Charlie will be back, Bobby too and they want to bring Benny back also? Hm, the only thing I'm really excited about is the Benny bit. With Cas, it will be much innuendo but we know they will never go down the Cas/Dean lane so...
And Dean will be keeping secrets from Sam again? Eh. And it's the only thing we have been told about Dean. So, I guess it will be Sam the special Messiah and Dean his human caretaker again, huh?
I'm not bashing or hating on the show, I don't demand its cancellation, I'm just a bit disappointed that 9 years in and it feels like the same old song again. Powered Sam, human Dean, slashy Cas... Why not a shake-up? Why not give Dean the powers, have Sam be the caretaker and actually make the Cas/Dean thing happen? Because, honestly? This is starting to feel like NCIS all over again - nothing really changes.
