Also, honestly, my squee broke last season with the episode with the brother. That was the one step too far, the too much to put on their shoulders, that I couldn't deal with. And once I knew they hurt them (and me) that badly, and that irrevocably, it just made me nervous about every upcoming episode. Now that I know they'll do that, all bets are off, and the safety I felt from it being an episodic show is gone.
There's a reason I don't watch a lot of movies, particularly horro, and that I ran from 24--I like knowing the rug's not going to be jerked out from under me. And that safety net is gone in SPN, which makes continuing to watch it more of a dedication to the fandom than a squeeful event.
