yes, definitely important to distinguish between *good* storytelling and... basically tormenting your fans into staying against their will

Well yeah and Lily goes into that in her big list of don'ts, she calls it "addictive storytelling" in that judgmental way of hers I mean honestly if she admits that the tropes she dislikes *work* to fill seats and sell tickets and she disapproves, who cares what she thinks

I keep thinking of the Noel Coward quote "Extraordinary how potent cheap music is", which I think is more interesting than just "No accounting for tastes" Maybe Supernatural doesn't hold together as a work of art very well but that's not what the customers were buying

It's interesting, some of the most enduring fandom communities - esp. the ones where fanworks/shipping are central - form around some of the most mediocre source material. Supernatural's storytelling gets dragged pretty harshly by its own fandom :)
