ABSOLUTELY. I read an article where Sera, I think, said that they boys have always fought, and I guess it's true in a way, but they had an unthinking solidarity the first two seasons that I desperately miss.
Agreed. In S1/S2 the boys definitely had their differences and squabbles but it was backed up by the fact that we knew it was out of love or at least there was some genuine affection to balance it out.
This episode? I was bored with Sam being "weird" (yet again, because heaven forbid we get a straight Sam POV because that would remove "the mystery") and pissed as hell that Dean was deciding to be distrustful when he damn well was okay with it last year so he can get over t- or at least the writers can find a different path. They did have an adult conversation going at the end until, of course, they had to bring in the conflict. -.
I am such a hater of this season for precisely the reason that we've seen them act douchey at times, both of them but this is ridiculous, he's SO OOC he's unrecognisable and once again we get no explanation for Sam, it's just SO unfair. And I am miserable watching them at odds with one another AGAIN. What was the point of them growing together all last season just for this.
yeah, they're making the changes/coldness in Sam be a big plot point for the season, methinks. I'll wait and see, but it does feel a bit like more of the same. Still I'm hoping Sera will pull out the stops when the show finally lets us see the "real" Sam again.
Also, yeah, I could really do with some brotherly closeness right about now, though I still think there's this innate thing coming through, a trust that they know they want to be together and hunt together. Or maybe it's my Pollyanna showing (I thought I put that thing away!)
