I loved Bela. And I was really irked at how the fans reacted to her. There was so much hate for her character before we even saw her. That whole summer was filled with people saying that they hated her and she was unnecessary just based on her character description! And then, heaven forbid that she was actually competent and got the better of Dean and Sam on occasion. (And it isn't like they didn't also get the better of her. Or that she didn't need their help with the ghost as they knew more about how to deal with it.) I saw it as an equal relationship competence-wise, yet everyone seemed to be yelling about how she made the boys look like idiots. And how dare someone (a girl, even!) be as good as them at something so they weren't perfect. Ugh.

She and Ellen were/are my favorite characters. And I'm sad with how both of them were treated by the show and by how Bela was treated by the fandom. (At least Ellen was just largely ignored rather than bashed.)
