Topic > Supernatural, by Sigmund Freud - 1358

Gordon's generalization that all monsters deserve to die demonstrates the ideas of rule utilitarianism when he uses his past experiences as a guide that will produce the best possible outcome. Furthermore, when Sam is confronted with the parts of himself that were contained behind the wall in his mind, Freud's concept of repressed memories is shown by his need to face the memories he has repressed in order to recover them. Ultimately, when Dean refuses to take the life of a little girl while acting as Death, he learns from the consequences of his action that everything happens for a reason and that the laws of nature are inevitable. By spending an entire Saturday watching Supernatural, you might miss many of the underlying deep and philosophical concepts woven into the plot of each episode.
