Analyzing the Season 6 Title Card.



So, the above video is the Supernatural Season 6 title card. Every season it's a new one, and supposedly each one has a significant meaning to the season. Last year it was an exploding drop of blood. And we all know that blood has played a key role in the brother's lives in the show. Sam's addiction, they're related, they're lineage of hunters...and well, it's the prop guys favorite set decoration.

Anyways, in this season, we have shattering glass, and then a mirror reflection. Many people I've read had suggested that this was Dean's life being turned upside down, or shattered, from Sam coming back, and him deciding to leave the domestic life.

But I think differently.

The tag line of this season is, "Trust No One."

Which makes the whole mirror image thing perfect.
From the beginning it is clear that Dean cannot fully trust Samuel C. Or any of the other Campbells. He really can't even trust Sam.

Which of course is odd, since the normal thing to do would be to trust Sam, I mean, he's Dean's brother.

Which leads me to the storyline itself, everything is off with the characters. And the writing seems a bit tweaked.
It's like looking through the rose colored glass. We're in backwards Supernatural-land, and for me, it's fun to see a fresh look at a great show.

So, this is my interpretation of the title card. For the most part, I'm probably completely off, but it's fun to speculate.
