Michael and Lucifer downtime?

[rogueslayer452]

I'm actually wondering, since Lucifer and Michael are still trapped in the cage, would they be succumbed to having a little brotherly bonding time, or fighting it out as they were supposed to have done and then, after years Hell-time of duking it out, they start bonding and making amends? Also, assuming that Sam's soul is still trapped in there as well (however they plan on explaining that), would he be kind of playing referee? Hey, what better way spending solitary confinement with two archangels trying to sort out their brotherly and familial differences. It would actually be a metaphor of the Winchesters, the fact they keep rehashing the same-old issues and it would take centuries for them to come to any kind of resolve or moving forward. Not that I like that direction they're still doing for them honestly, it's boring as fuck now, but whatever.

Also, I miss Marksha. ;___; Despite being an important factor last season they really underused him. I am sorely disappoint. MARKSHA COME BACK TO US!

They also need to mention Adam somewhere this season. Neglecting him is just making their continuity failings even worse. Just saying.

I haven't rewatched it, so I can't really say, but yes, there were a fair number of episodes that didn't do anything at all, and whilst they might have been entertaining (esp if they were back in previous series), they just felt like they were procrastination, and then as always happens with procrastination, there was a big rush at the end.

Which you'd think you know, with a biblical apocalypse and all, they would be at least somewhat more serious with the entire dealio.

And in one year, he's really not gonna have changed that much. Certainly not if he's still hunting.

But hunters can't stay away from hunting. They go mad, they get killed, or they grow old without ever getting the peace they deserve. Mary wanted the same things as Dean, look how that turned out. Oh, and Sam too.

Exactly. Which is why this "domestication" is kind of bullshit, so why should he be all angsting over something he should have already known wouldn't even last? I honestly would have preferred it if he had tried to have made a life for himself instead of imposing on someone elses, and still kind of being a hunter without having to lie about who he is. At least that would have been more believable, imo.

I can see how Sam taking over a little more might be a good thing, because some of the show is kind of Dean-centric (but I don't know if that's just because I'm such a Dean fangirl that I see him before I see Sam).

Hmmm, I consider the show to be more Sam-centric in some ways, mostly with everything revolving around his issues rather than anything else (ex. the Something Is Wrong With Sam is getting rather old, to be honest) while the show has shifted somewhat Dean-centric in terms of perspective. But even with the brothers working together it's been mainly focusing on Sam the entire time, which is why I preferred the fourth and half of the fifth season because Dean actually had some involvement in the mythology that was separate from worrying over his brother.

All in all, I do wish that the show could balance having the brothers have their own storylines yet still work together without there being some kind of push/pull or whatever else. Which I thought there would be progression in that, and some of the episodes and how they're written it can be at times, but others not so much which makes it rather inconsistent.

I think if they wanted Dean to live a normal life, then season 6 never could have happened.

True, but with this show you never know what they're thinking of doing, esp in terms of directions. Hence me being nervous and worrisome with what they've been doing with this season.
