pray4jensen:

tbh jensen has already told us. the facts are this: kripke didn’t see the show after s5. he told jensen the same thing he did when the show started: it starts and ends with the brothers. and…jensen agreed because he still has fond memories of landing the role of dean winchester and he assumed that no one could understand the essence of these characters better than kripke himself because kripke is supernatural’s creator.

but….the sad reality is that jensen was wrong. jensen was the only one who carried dean on his shoulders for 15 years. jensen saw dean grow because he had to be dean and had to rationalize every action that dean took on the script so that he could portray it to us authentically. jensen thought about what made dean tick more than anybody else did. jensen thought about what dean felt for his mom or for cas or for his brother and father and any character that interacted with dean, no matter how small in our eyes, because that is the type of careful deliberate actor that jensen is.

jensen’s gut reaction was right because he was the closest to dean and the tragedy is that all of them told him that he was wrong because of that closeness.
