So with the big big hiatus in front of us, I thought we might like to discuss the season so far, the arc, the myth, Lilith, the boys, the brotherly bond, the deal and so on...
This thread is inspired by Chris and Lyns discussion in the VIP yesterday
Please hide spoilers for upcoming episodes!!!
Personally I'm enjoying the season a lot so far. I've read many complaints in the beginning about the boys being so far apart, but I was okay with it. I don't have a sibling, but still I can imagine the weight and stress a deal like that puts on you, for both sides. And given the situation not being able to talk to eachother about it, I thought it was logical that they were apart a bit.
However how the season is twisting around, especially after Fresh Blood, is really good and convinsing.
I'm wondering how Sam is going to deal with the hopeless situation. I would think he will bite himself into it, ignoring everything and maybe even stop eating, to do everything to save Dean.
But I don't see him going dark side after all. I just don't believe the writers would go there and destroy this carefully setup and good character. Even if Sam has shown less compassion for innocent people so far, like in Mystery Spot and Jus in Bello, where he was willing to kill an innocent to safe Dean or everyone.
Season three is, I think, very much about Sam's character development and Deans character statement.
It feels like Dean has grown into this person that is good, giving and stable in personality (not perse emotionally), while Sam is developing and growing with the sword of damocles (???) above him.
Even though Dean is the one going to Hell, and so would have that sword above him more obviously, I think that with Sam its heavyer, carrying the burden of his brother going to hell for him.
hmmm well there's much more to say, but I'd love some input if you guys are interested
