I hate it when a male character rescues a female character and the subtext is that it's the male character right to sleep with the female character and/or the female character is obliged to fall in love with the male character. It's the owing that's damn skeevy.
Oh G-d yes.
I don't think "Character introduced solely to be slaughtered to motivate main character" is in itself bad, but I dislike how constantly gendered it is, on a macro level.
Understood, but I think there has been some of that with men--Caleb, Pastor Jim?
Samantha Ferris felt that the CW was reluctant to allow Kripke to bring her back because she was older. I believe she said this in a blog post.
However, now that Bela has STOLEN THE COLT, it appears that she's in full-fledged antagonist manner.
And sicced the Feds on the boys, ending up with the death of Henriksen, which means she has to replace him. Bela was always intended to be a recurring character and the CW tried to get Kripke to make her a Love Interest (ugh).
I was disappointed that Ruby wasn't Lilith and that Lilith is the big bad; I had really wanted Lilith to be on the boys' side against Azazel and/or his replacement, but I'm a daemonology geek.
