Count me among those happy to have Carver returning! That bodes well for the show continuing and even having a new life breathed into it storywise. Yes, this is definitely a good thing I think.
Gamble just didn't have what it takes to be a showrunner imo, and as a result the whole series as suffered. As a writer of individual episodes she usually did pretty good before she took over as showrunner and then the quality there just dropped through the floor.
Its especially exciting in terms of Sam's character because Carver was also the last person to write and show Sam having some real character growth. So just maybe he can help turn Sam's character around and make him at least likable if not get him back to being an actual hero on the show. And follow through on Dean's storylines especially since he seems to really like Dean too and writes him as the strong, kickass hunter he is. :D
Issues with the one scene in 5.18 aside, the episode is really strong and promoted both brothers well so I'm hopeful for more. And just maybe a flip of that one scene would be nice...why yes, I'm feeling a little vindictive and want to see more of Castiel getting his comeuppance, what gave me away? :P And I also want to see Cas find true redemption as well.
