The scene in 13x20 Unfinished Business where Sam's getting choked while Dean's getting whipped by a twink. That's good scenes.

This poll has the same structure as the "let's make a cake", "let's build Cas's true form" polls.

Also, this poll is primarily intended for destiel shippers.

[tiktaalic]

The thing is. I don’t have to wonder what it means. I know what it means. There are four writers where I can say with absolute certainty they were writing dean winchester gay love angel. Steve Love can get crazier than that yockey. Bobo I love you berens. Meredith cas is my best friend Glynn. Eric twitter likes full of destiel gay sex charmelo. However. The problem. The issue. Is There are more writers than that

"I lost Cas and it damn near broke me..."

I love how the scripts really continue to validate and reiterate all of the points of Destiel in the story that have been made. We knew Dean had a grieving widower arc in season 13 but I love how this is basically confirmed by Dean himself. And the writer is Meredith Glynn, the same writer who wrote 13x04 in the aforementioned arc.

Last I checked, Dean wasn't the only one who lost Cas that night but Dean inserts himself into this context because he doesn't want to lose anyone else, namely Sam. (plus they have Cas back at this point) And it literally reiterates what we (and Sam) saw Dean go through on screen from 12x23-13x05.

Love that confirmation for us.

[italwayshadtobeyou]

I simply do not understand what so many Deangirls have against Sera Gamble. Was she the absolute best at writing Dean? Probably not; for that, I'd go with either Eric Kripke or Raelle Tucker in the early years, Jenny Klein in the middle, and Meredith Glynn towards the end of SPN's run. But I can't think of a Dean episode she wrote-- and she did write some-- that was horrendous, either. Most were pretty good, although, for most of the ones written after Tucker left, I'd lean more toward "solid B" than "A+." (She did, however, write some spectacular Sam eps.)

I will grant them that season 6 includes some shaky plots, including Dean's arc with Lisa and Ben. How do Dean and Lisa fund multiple moves? How can they hide from Dean's enemies while remaining in contact with her family? What does Cass fills in their two years' worth of missing memories with? All good questions!

But they're the kind of questions that bug me, not that bug most Gamble antis. I don't see them demanding answers to why the Winchesters think the bunker is safe from bad angels if the warding doesn't keep Cass out, or how Jack can be immune to angel blades yet susceptible to your bog-standard police stun gun.

If I put on my critic hat, Gamble didn't do a perfect job on SPN, as a writer or a showrunner. I can see why some people would dislike her work. What puzzles me is the lack of specific complaints. It just isn't how I think. I dislike plenty of writers-- but I can tell you exactly which of their lines ticks me off. Why would you be mad at a TV writer if you couldn't think of what they'd gotten wrong?

[shallowseeker]

My turn for Friendly Friday! a) Which character would you resurrect in later SPN seasons, if any?; b) Which writer would you hire to helm an SPN sequel?

Ooo, thank you!

OG Kevin Tran. There was the perfect opportunity for it to happen when Donatello got brain-melted. Say, Cas tries to heal Donatello, and through the power invested by someone else's soul or other, Donatello comes back with a BANG, but he's no longer a prophet. The power rebounded all the way back and resurrected The Kevin Tran, but very crucially, he doesn't want to help The Winchesters anymore, and that causes Big Tension. Jack will argue in his favor, because he failed to protect AU Kevin from AU Michael.

Writer for the sequel? I know everyone and their brother would insist on Robbie Thompson for his love and care, but I actually...love his themes more than I love his dialogue, which I found rather clumsy in both his OG run and in The Winchesters. I also don't think he has a good ear for Sam or Cas, so... I'm choosing Ben Edlund, the wryest Cas to ever Cas (more “lost in translation” style than “stupid duck” style) and who can tap into Sam's inner asshole even when Sam's trying to play nice. This second in command can be Meredith Glynn, because I like how she structures scenes, and that's just how my heart feels today. The heart wants what it wants.

I’ll happily trust Robbie with Dean and creating annoying-but-eventually-kinda-endearing side characters + world building + big plots. But I just don’t think he has the chops for quite hitting what I need with Sam and Cas, respectively, and a sequel would need to be so heavily Sam-driven, no offense. 🙏 (Besties, don’t kill me. I could be wrong. I don’t actually study the writers in depth.)

[hollywoodbabylondean]

You know, as iconic as The Charlie Attack was, I am very sad that no spn writers will ever do cons again because of it. Just because Buckleming deserve to have tomatoes thrown at them in the town square doesn't mean we'll do that to everyone. Pspsps Meredith glynn you want to do a con SO bad.

[mybrainproblems]

dgmw, it's not like i think berens is a terrible person, but i think he has a lot of blind spots (and a certain lack of nuance) and his particular storytelling sensibilities weren't always the greatest fit for late seasons/dabb era spn which did take a different tack & tone to prior seasons.

like all the other seasons are about The Cycle but seasons 12-15 are (trying to be) about Seeing The Cycle and Breaking It

[pollsnatural]

Yockey. Sorry for the typo.

[tiktaalic]

Meredith Glynn turns me into a misogynist. I’m always like supernatural would have benefited from a writers room with more women in it. Watches a meredith ep. Ummmmmmmmmm. Well. Hear me out. Sometimes things that are boys clubs are right?
