Me too. I just really, really, really hope they don't decide to parallel season 1 (with Sam and Dean's roles swapped.) There was nothing wrong with Season 1, but as I said, I crave novelty, and I kind of have my doubts that the writers could refrain from trying to hit us over the head with it.
I've been thinking about writing something on season 5, because a lot of my feelings and opinions on it probably would require a few digressions on narratology and history (it's just how i think about things), as it's not really "I didn't like X". It's more like "X is fine, but it becomes problematic in reference to Y given context A"
The truth of the matter is that I can't make the pieces of season 5 fit together in my head. They're like thematic fragments. I can talk about individual episodes, and their merits and difficulties, but I can't connect them to anything larger than that, because I can't make sense of it.
