Instead, he gets beat to a bloody pulp.

Ass-butt!) but I feel like their deaths totally lost any kind of emotional resonance when they were so easily restored. It wasn&#8217;t <i>earned<\/i>. It was lazy writing. Their deaths didn&#8217;t even have a chance to sink in yet! But I guess I&#8217;m torn because I don&#8217;t think the show would be the same without either of them.<\/p>\n<p>As far as the ending, I had a feeling that Sam (or is it Lucifer?) was going to reappear. There really isn&#8217;t anywhere else the story could go. I just hope they&#8217;re not going to recycle the Buffy storyline with Sam not coming back &#8220;right.&#8221; I&#8217;m happy enough with Dean giving up hunting and settling down but a part of me wishes it could be with Jo. Why&#8217;d they have to kill her off? I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m the only one in this fandom that feels this way, lol. I just love Alona Tal.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly&#8230; Chuck? God?! Where did that come from?
