Why I Love Sam Winchester And He's My Favorite TV Character?



Why do I love Sam Winchester? The main reason I love him is because Jared Padalecki brings him to life and I love Jared. Jared makes me feel good every time that I watch him. I remember the first time I saw him on Gilmore Girls. He smiled and I smiled and it was like the sun came out or something. He has such a wonderful and bright smile and he makes me feel good when he smiles. I still remember the time I watched a video someone made of clips of Jared on YouTube and him smiling and laughing. I went to work feeling great and I sat there all day thinking of him and I was happy. I know that sounds dumb or lame to other people, but that's how I feel.

I love Sam's character because I feel kind of like him. I'm the youngest sibling in my family. I have three older sisters and an older brother. I don't think anyone can know what it's like to be a younger sibling, unless you've been one. My older siblings think they know everything and that they have to teach me everything and that I don't know things. I doubt my older siblings even know who I am. I'm always acting like they want me to or expect me to and I think that's what Sam does with Dean at times. Sam just goes along with Dean because it's easier than trying to fight him on things or explain how he feels. Most of the time, it seems that Dean doesn't care how Sam feels or what Sam wants. Dean thought he had to keep Sam on the straight and narrow. I thought that was kind of funny coming from Dean in Point Of No Return. Maybe the straight and narrow of hunting or something, but not with the law or life. Sam is the one that always wanted to earn money honestly instead of credit card fraud or hustling pool. Sam didn't like getting in trouble with the law and he even was going to become a lawyer and Dean thought it was fun or neat when they got arrested. Like he was proud of it or something. I loved that Dean.
I think I'm most like Sam because Sam said that he has something inside of him and he catches glimpses of it. Like he goes too far or he would if he was pushed. I think I would too. If someone pushed certain buttons of mine, I don't know what I'd do and sometimes I'm afraid of that. I have darkness inside of me and I've faced that darkness. I know who I am and what I could be capable of, if push came to shove. I don't think my family even knows that about me. I try to be a good person and to do the right thing and I always will because I do believe in God. I don't think Sam ever stopped believing in God. That's just my opinion because we've never heard lately what Sam has thought about God, only Dean. We know that Sam used to pray to God and who says God never answered his prayers. Maybe God was watching over him and it's funny because Dean never had any faith that there was a God and that's why he always thought he had to protect Sam and no one else.

I just know that I love Sam's character because Sam always tries to fight that evil inside of him and turn it into something good. He might use evil to fight evil, but maybe sometimes that's what you have to do, especially in the Supernatural world of TV. Sam has always been caring and kind and if Sam was a real person, I'd let him in my door if he came around. Dean on the other hand, I'd be wary of. Sam just has a way of looking at people with his big puppy dog eyes and you just want to let him in and you trust him. I love how Dean told that couple in Scarecrow, that if his brother was there, he'd look at them with his puppy dog eyes and they'd believe him. Sam has that kind of power and that's the most important one of all.

I've loved a whole lot of characters on TV in the last 30 some years I've been watching and I think Sam Winchester tops my list of my favorite of all characters ever. He's no. 1 on my list and it's a really long long list. I've loved a whole lot of TV shows and a whole ton of characters on all those shows. I'm grateful and I love Jared for playing Sam for the past five seasons of the show.

I'm sure I had more to write, but most of the time, it goes out of my head before I can write it all down.
