Season 11's storyline is writers apologizing for earlier seasons and the way the characters went from heroe trying to protect people to basically sociopaths only out for each other.

The scenes that basicaly confirm this all happened in the first five episodes, Sam admits that he would release the Darkness (or any other world threatening force) as many times as needed to save Dean.

Upon finding out the Len doesn't have his soul anymore Dean just say "We can't kill him cuz he hasn't done anything wrong yet." I don't really rememeber him threatening to do that to a soulless Sam.

What is especially hilarious I realized recently is that the Singer & Carver era seems to be the most hated, seasons 8-11 basically just retconning things to not make sense.

Gamble's run was fine, 6-7 was a good thing of "the world is saved, now we need to figure out how to pick up the pieces" and while the Leviathan were just stronger monsters at the very least they didn't try and make you sympathize with the things that kill with no remorse unlike Amara.

Of course some serious what the hell heroes moments still occured, as Adam was basically forgotten about almost immediately after Sam's soul was rescued.

Almost everyone agrees that the first 5 seasons were the best, dealing with actual family and such.

New tagline for Supernatural seasons 8-11 "Save each other, screw the consequences the world suffers, the family business"

Season 11's is also "We're sorry guys, look we brought Lucifer back and had him be our admittance to the out of characterness we gave the brothers... love us again?"
