Soulless Bastard !!!! Lucifer wanna be!!! I loved you!!!!Maybe like the fact that Kyp Durron hasn't had more than a line or two in the most recent set of books, my hero Sam Winchester hasn't had a spine or an ounce of darkness since his resouling. This sadddens me. In supernatural fiction, typically one of the "good guys" has powers, abilities, secrets, connections to the supernatural, etc.... Sam was that character. Season Six gave us Sam as a soulless thing, and that provided mystery and tension, but then he got his soul back and Sam lost any amount of chutzpah he ever had on his wimpiest day. He was as much fun to watch as Kyp the wise (and calm) Jedi master on a diplomatic mission (this happened in the recent book).
As if that was bad enough, the only conflict turns out to be straight forward. Cas turns to the darkside (yawn)! Seriously!!!!!! That's it? So Cas swallows all the purgatory souls and is this new unstoppable creature. He was their friend! That's like character assassination to the 1,000,000 th degree!!!!!
Bastards!
Where is Death in all of this? Shouldn't he want an apocalypse? It's kinda his job. He wants balance, right? Then he needs to show up in season seven. I am happy there will be more, but I am worried that Sam will no longer have powers or connections to Hell. This would bore me. However, if he has Hell memories, perhaps we can hope that he will have that internal conflict and struggle.
