We're breaking up, SPN.

At least halfway.
I can no longer justify missing Modern Family, which is consistently awesome and funny, hitting notes of utter hilarity and lump-in-throat pathos multiple times in a single episode, for whatever it is you think you're doing here.
Stop it with the flashbacks, SPN. They just make me flashback to when you did not use this unwieldy, clunky, and totally tired-ass storytelling trope. I liked you more then.
Please stop pingponging back and forth in a totally jarring and tonally dissonant way between serious business and jokes that are supposed to be funny but are not. See my new girlfriend, MF, for pointers on how this is accomplished.
Remember, SPN, when the boys used to care that a person was being inhabited by a demon? Remember when they used to not just kill people because they're inconvenient? I also remember those days.
Remember when I used to sit on the edge of my seat during every episode? Yeah. Me neither.
In conclusion, SPN, you are boring me and making me laugh in the bad way. I guess I don't mind watching your rear end as you walk away, so expect me for that last half hour, but overall--I think you should have ended years ago, and it makes me sad that you've grown so far from the show you used to be.
Yawn.
