It is annoying that they do kill all the interesting side characters, then again they kill everyone off. I don't keep up with the meta of the show, but is it 'picking on female character or characters of race' when in fact they do kill everyone?
I know I'll get hammered for saying this, but there are only two characters the show cares about and that are Sam and Dean. The end. If all the side characters were white men, then the show would get hassled for not having diversity...when they do cast characters other than white men, they get hassled for killing them.
I guess the main problem is that everyone on she show ends up dead or evil, which they are consistent in doing. Lol I do think they could keep a side cast without bumping them off at every turn though, you’ll hear an amen on that :D
As far as filler eppys vs. myth arc, no one seems to be happy.
It seems half my f-list is sick and tired of the apocalypse and wants more 'monster of the week' eppys, while they other half wants more myth arc eppys vs. filler ones. And that's a problem the show has had since they made a major turn at the end of season.
But to be honest I only watch the NCIS(s) and SPN, so I do watch for entrainment purposes only and I still enjoy watching the heck out of all of them.
