If there was a 'like' button...then I'd use it for your rant...:). That being said I only have heresay to go by as I have not watched the show since Season 7. I don't like how they 'side-line' Dean (from what I read) and I detest that it's always about Sam...what he has to do, what he wants or doesn't blah, blah. Kripke created TWO brothers not one. Yes, Sam may have been the original lead but that changed pretty much as soon as Jensen made such a big impact with his Dean characterisation. With Sam the writers have had to develop his character, pretty much. However, he should have been allowed to grown up and become more independent (of his brother)...I don't think Dean's job is to constantly take care of Sam (afterall he's not a parent!). Sam is a grown man and big and bad enough to take care of himself and Dean for that matter! I don't see that role as Dean's any more, or it shouldn't be. Dean should have more purpose, though still always consistent with the brotherly love as with any sibling relationship....afterall it's not unique.
Lastly, Dean needs some proper loving and taking care of too....
Ooops, forgot. Season 5 should have seen the end of Supernatural.
