Supernatural season 8: Thoughts and Predictions


Here's some of my thoughts on season 8 after I just read another Jeremy Carver interview. Either Carver is purposely trying to confuse fans or he doesn't know what he's got planned. I've read so many conflicting things that it's getting ridiculous already. Carver says that Sam and Dean are going to be central to the storyline, but then Dean is going to have a story arc that is totally separate from Sam. Like Dean hasn't had how many of those already. His whole relationship with Castiel in season four was mostly separate from Sam. Just like Sam's relationship with Ruby was separate. The only difference, we saw Dean and Castiel on screen and Sam and Ruby were off screen. Carver says he's taking away the crushing mythology, but the show is going to go back to angels and demons again. Plus more vampires. I wonder why there are going to be vampires. Maybe because vampires are popular right now, so of course Dean's new buddy Benny is going to be a vampire. I'm sure he'll be a good vampire because he helped save Dean and he's buddies with Dean.

Yes, Sam and Dean are going to be what it's all about, even though I've seen how many spoilers with how many characters coming. Season 8 looks like it's going to be cluttered with a bunch of guest stars. There's Crowley, Kevin, Benny, Amelia and Castiel for starters and they are recurring characters. Garth is coming back for one episode so far. Then there are a bunch of other guest stars. I've read the episode titles and they sound stupid so far. Two of them with Kevin in them. I wonder what they'll be about? Probably Kevin.

I will not have any faith in Jeremy Carver until he proves that Sam is a main character on Supernatural and we actually get to see Sam's storyline played out on screen and not off. Then maybe I'll say he's done something. I love how most Supernatural fans hated Dawn Ostroff when she was in charge of The CW and frankly the network and shows were better when she was in charge.  Now that a man is in charge and says he loves Supernatural, they love him and think he's done more for the show than Dawn. I'd love to know what. Dawn renewed the show every year and all she got was hate from them, but everyone wants to send letters thanking the man for renewing the show. Sera Gamble was the show runner for season 6 and 7 and the show was crap according to how many fans, but now that a guy will be in charge, that means the show will be great again. And how many of those fans hated CW and other shows and now they say they love the shows on right now.Obviously, most of the fans think a woman's place is underneath a man and a woman can't do anything right. Only a man can. Sera Gamble did a great job for 7 years on the show and all she got was hate, but then so did Kripke. I guess neither of them knew how to write for Sam and Dean, even though they were doing it from the start and Kripke created them. Only Jeremy Carver knows how to write them.

Now on to my predictions. Here are a few of them.

1. I could bet money that Bobby will return from the dead. Either an angel or a demon will bring him back to life with a new body and everything. Adam and Gramps were brought back to life and I bet Bobby will come back as well.

2. I bet season 8 will be just like season 4 and 6. It will have elements of both. It will be like season 4 because Dean will have a separate story from Sam and it will be the main thing shown above everything else. It will be like season 6 because Carver claims he's going to have how many stories going at once. That's simple all right. Season 6 had how much going on with all the characters. How many fans said they were confused because the show was so cluttered?

3. I don't even have to predict this one. Sam will be the least of all the characters on the show. We'll see all of their emotions, hear all their thoughts and problems and whatever and Sam will be there to comfort them or whatever.

4. I bet there will be how many episodes that focus more on guest stars than Sam and Dean. How many fans just loved the computer hacker episode and that was about her and not them? I can see more crap like that in the future.

5. I predict Sam will have sex again on screen and probably how many times. It seems every other year, you see him doing the deed.

6. Last but not least of the predictions. Dean will save the day as always and be the perfect saint and righteous man he's always been. Every character will revolve totally around him since that's what's happened since the second season.

I do hope my predictions are wrong, but I do believe some will be right on. I won't believe or support Jeremy Carver until I see something different and Sam being treated like a main star and not a guest star on the show. I'm hoping for the best, but I'm not going to hang my hopes on anything.

I was getting depressed again and then I have to tell myself to stop. I know I'll get excited the closer it gets to the season premiere. Not too excited because I've been crapped on before and I'm sure it will happen in this season as well as the last four. I just want to be entertained by the show. If I get something out of it, then it will be worth watching. I have gotten something for the last 7 years.  But if all I get is nothing, then it's not worth my time sniveling over it. Even though, I'm sure I will. I'm an addict and obsessed with this show and I have been for 7 years. I want to kick the habit, but all addictions are hard to kick.
