For the sake of my own sanity..or what's left of it...LOL!, with a few exceptions I'm not going to be reading your SPN episode reviews anymore. Sorry!

Unlike other posts where you can get an idea what you are going to be reading if you click on the cut, because of the outcry over being spoiled.. with episode reviews you can't.

And by then it's too late.

I don't expect everyone to like every episode..I don't myself! I don't expect everyone to share the same views on what they have seen! But..

But yesterday...the Titanic would have sunk under the weight of the negativity that I read! At least four of you are close to never watching SPN again, another was whingeing about it without even having watched it! And from some of the comments and those of your friends ..I found myself thinking WTF?..are we even watching the same programme anymore!

So as well as sinking the Titanic, my mood sank as well. I have enough trouble trying to keep that up anyway..without having all the enjoyment I found sucked right out of it.
Not only that it sends my will to be creative right out the window..and that is an outlet for me.

It makes me sad as well, that because SPN is the only programme I download, I don't get to squee or not with you over others that we share an interest in. When i see them, generally you are pass that point.

I really was close to hitting the defriend button last night, I slept on it and didn't and I'll sleep on it some more. But to be honest, if you don't like SPN anymore, or aren't going to watch it anymore and you don't comment on my posts anyway..what's the point on staying on each others lists?

If anyone wants to defriend me over this, or anything else, then fair enough, please do so.

Okay, end of me moaning..you can uncover your eyes..or unblock your ears now ;-)

Sweetie it is your journal, your opinion and I can't say that I disagree. I couldn't understand the huge negativity either.

But, I would definitely recommend reading [livejournal.com profile] dodger_winslow's episode meta. It was fascinating. She does an amazing job of explaining just why this episode was so pivotal. If you haven't already seen it, here is the link.

Oops, went to get the link, and noticed you in the comments. Left the link though for anyone that reads your post that didn't see it.

*hugs you*

No de-friending you. You are stuck with me. ♥

THANK YOU for linking this here - otherwise I would have missed it. I read dodger's take on 4.11 and it's some of the best meta/review I've read.


Jo - you're one of the few reviewers/commenters I read, and I'm with you on the 'if you don't like it, why are you watching?' feeling. A couple of the things I've read...I, too, wonder if we're watching the same show.

Don't let 'em get you down though. You're one of the more talented (and nice!) people in fandom, and I would miss you if you went away, which is why *I'm* not going away. I friended you for a reason - I like your style.

*hugs* :)

Dodger's meta and ep reviews should be standard reading before anyone else posts something, then we wouldn't have this problem.

Sometimes I don't bother with meta because it's too heavy for my poor little brain..LOL! But her meta has helped :-)
