Whatever night Supernatural is airing that year, it's my favorite night! I pray to God it doesn't end any time soon. Normally I'm a chicken and hate anything scary, but it grows on you quick!! Smallville used to be my favorite, but now it's a definite second. Sam and Dean or Jared and Jensen are the perfect match!! Please don't end anytime soon!!! Seriously!!

I honestly loved this show but the longer this show goes on the more major problems come into focus:There is a distinct lack of female characters in this story. A lot of them were killed off or just 'disappear' and are never mentioned again. Apparently, a lot of that is because of the fanbase that seems to harbour a hatred of all female characters but it is still something that works against viewers, especially female ones. Another problem is the characters: You have your overpowered characters, your overpowered characters that do nothing, your overpowered characters that are killed laughably easy (demons/angels without names), and your 'normal' characters that survive impossible odds. Especially the powerful characters are weird. The angels, for example, are built up to be an atomic bomb on their own, each one a weapon of mass destruction. However, we never really see much of their potential, especially not from Castiel, who's belonged to the show for ten seasons now. The show has a problem with establishing how powerful a character is and sticking with it. Of course, you can't just exposit what each character can do every episode, but some guidelines would be useful. How much more powerful are the archangels in comparison to normal angels? How much more powerful are the demons? It's all a bit hazy.Another notable problem is the shameless queer baiting that's been happening since Castiel first appeared on the show 10 seasons ago. Every objective person would think that Castiel and Dean are either together or aat least have crushes on each other. Not the writers, though. There have been cut scenes where it would have been acknowledged as canon but every scene has been cut. It's a disservice to the fanbase at this point and I actually don't want to continue watching the show because it's too frustrating.
A problem that really rankles is the fact that the show has major problems with how it represents consent. There are some moments in the show where the topic is either played for laughs or just ignored. One scene is in season 7 (Season Seven, Time For a Wedding) where Becky plies Sam with love potion to make him marry her. This amounts to rape through a date-rape drug. It's played for laughs and it doesn't have any consequences.
Another scene is in in the episode where a cursed coin makes wishes come true (season 5, 6?). One man wishes for another woman to fall in love with him. They presumably have sex. This falls under the same category as the episode with Becky, a sort of date-rape drug if you paraphrase. It isn't ever really talked about and it's seen as something problematic but somewhat harmless.The biggest problem right now is the plot. With every season the problems have to be bigger, the antagonists more powerful, the villains meaner. By now we've had demons, angels, demons, angels, the Devil, the First Demon, a Knight of Hell, Princes of Hell, the King of Hell, The Mother of All (who was somehow defeated in an episode), the Horsemen of the apocalypse, the Apocalypse, and the goddamned sister of god (no pun intended). The villains haven't been good since at least season 10 (Amara), if not before that. All in all the show has gone on for too long. It's gotten repetitive.

Straggling to finish in FF, season 8. Show tittle should be "Supernatural screwballs", the 2 brothers and 1 angel. 2 brothers screwing up with everything, again and again, heaven, hell, angels, demons and the whole universe. I vote 8/10 up to 5th season and 3/10 for the rest.
