The first 5 seasons of this show were absolutely fantastic and if it ended there this show would've been a memorable one. But they dragged it out for far too long for it to even gain a proper ending. It's also very underrated for that reason alone.
There's a reason why franchises like Harry Potter or Breaking Bad for quick example are absolutely flawless. It's because the creators of those series ended them without stretching out the story and trying so hard to come up with pointless plots that ruin the character development.
For example.. Metatron kills Dean at the end of season 9 and he became a true hateful villain during the 10th season. All of a sudden in season 11 he sides with Sam and Dean in effort to stop Amara. Im supposed to hate metatron, why am I liking him all of a sudden??? That is not character development... that is ignoring who the character actually IS. He kills Dean and Sam just "okay let's ask Metatron for help!" That's not something you forgive and forget and just move on from. Wtf? But oh when Dean gets mad at Cass let's ignore him and give him the silent treatment whenever they actually needed his help multiple times. Sure they faced Amara who was a huge problem but trust the monster who killed Dean. Makes perfect sense right? Okay I can buy into that. NOT. Nothing in this show is realistic or makes any sense at all anymore.
Oh and I hate when people say "so demons and monsters that go bump in the night is realistic to you but not a character that can go from bad to good?" Like listen morons... The point of having villains at all is to HAVE AN ACTUAL STORY. So YES everything else in the show does make sense because that is the purpose of what Sam and Dean are fighting. Demons, ghosts, werewolves, vampires etc, you need all that to have this kind of story. It's THEIR world! And they did it WRONG with Metatron THATS MY POINT. Metatrons character was a villain and he was supposed to stay a villain. But because they wanted to drag this series they literally ruined his character when they had a chance to end the season using him. It's like what's the point of even making him a villain in the first place? Even Sam said it himself. "You killed my brother!" But okay let's team up with him 🙄 because that makes sense. Not.
Also, you need to know when to end your project/work, so it has proper substance, meaning, character development and most importantly of all, a proper ending. And supernatural had so many chances to pull that off. It should've been season 5 or at least season 10. The show lost itself after that. And because they decided to stretch it... the story of Sam and Dean no longer had a meaning anymore and lost its purpose for the reason they were hunting in the first place. Bringing the mother back was a big mistake. That's where it became meaningless. What a stupid idea.
