The show just made way more sense to me when they were chasing yellow eyes...then it made sense when they were tracking down other children of yellow eyes
But then here's the thing....yellow eyes, he had to create X amounts of kids...then Sam has to kill Yellow Eyes, do all this other stuff, then go with ruby, stay on on Lilith's tail then kill lilith only to find out that lilithe actually wanted to die, and since Sam is a junkie now Satan is free and it was all a trap?
I mean its all just "ah-ha! It was my plan all along!"...kinda a "Deux Ex Machina" ending for me.
Maybe its because supernatural was my 3rd or 4th favorite show this year, I just expected a lot of it. See: My whining about Chuck.
FTR, this season it went
#4-Life on Mars-well done. Very well done.
#3-Supernatural
#2-Chuck
#1-Life. This show is so underappreciated it's criminal. And its criminal it was canceled. You ever see actors you really like that you know are gonna end up doing bad roles cuz its the only role they can get, despite the fact that you know they have the chops and ability to be a powerful character in a very good project? Damien Lewis is like #2 or #3 on that list for me. He's up there with Peter Sarsguard and Kevin McKidd (Lucious from Rome, and Tommy from Trainspotting)
