User blog:KillRoy231/Is there really going to be Season 12?

(Insert Scott McNeil's big "NO" from Gundam Wing when his character, Duo, witnesses his Gundam being destroyed, which he said to get into the right frame of mind for that he had to think about the time his wife accidentally ran over his motorcycle)

This show can't keep going on for 12 whole seasons. Charmed ended at 8, and Buffy ended at 7, though it's 12 if you take Angel into account, but that atleast split the Buffyverse half and half (almost) between Buffy and Angel, and, being Joss Whedon series, waited until the series finale to kill off the fan-favorites, and even brought one of them back for the final season of Angel. But if a show has too many seasons/episodes, it gets hard to keep track of, and you never know if you'll be alive to see the end of it, if there even is one.

Now, I might be able to accept this if Castiel and Crowley weren't the only fan-favorites left. Over the seasons we've lost all our other fan-favorites: Did I leave anyone out? Evidently Garth survived only because no one likes him as much as I do. I don't know where the Ghostfacers stand with everyone else but they're as good as dead because they split up.
 * Ruby - Stabbed by Dean with the demon-killing knife, though we already essentially lost her minutes earlier when she was revealed to be evil all along
 * Gabriel - Stabbed by Lucifer with an angel blade. (I don't care what his actor says, Mark Sheppard also said Crowley was dead at the end of Season 10 and he's not, plus we don't see Gabriel anymore except in what I'm sure is an illusion created by Metatron, even though with his God powers Metatron could bring angels like Gabriel back if he wanted to)
 * Balthazar - Stabbed by Castiel with an angel blade
 * Bobby Singer - Shot in the head by Dick (though at least we continue to see him as a ghost and in the afterlife)
 * Benny - Decapitated by Dean to get Sam out of Purgatory and Bobby into Heaven
 * Meg - Stabbed by Crowley with an angel blade
 * Charlie Bradbury - Brutally killed offscreen by Eldon
 * Death - Killed by Dean with his own scythe

So how long can the show keep going without all of them? And how long are Castiel and Crowley going to last before they end up like the others? Even though they're listed as main characters now

And if Amara really is invincible, why make something like her the main villain of Season 11 and possibly Season 12? There is imprisonment, of course, but we already know that to imprison her someone has to be corrupted by the Mark of Cain. Maybe it'll occur to Sam and Dean to have Death give the Mark of Cain to Rowena, and then send her to the other world, she lives forever in no man's land with the Mark while the Darkness stays imprisoned, or maybe Lucifer if Amara doesn't kill him first then send him back to the cage... no, wait, Death's dead, and his successor isn't anywhere near as helpful as he was. The only ending I can see - and at this point I'm thinking I hardly care how this Bobbyless Bennyless Megless Gabriel-less Charlieless Balthazarless Deathless show ends as long as it does - is Amara's victory, UNLESS she really was killed by the angels' smite, but almost everyone agrees it only knocked her out. (I guess we'll find that out in three days, this hiatus is almost as bad as Gravity Falls!)
