Alice’s Review: Supernatural 15.09 “The Trap” aka Not My Heroes’ Journey

Um…err…well…oh crap.  Who am I kidding?  There are 11 episodes of “Supernatural” left and at this point, I would like to watch episodes I actually enjoy.  When I look at the construction and intent of “The Trap” from a writer’s perspective, I see what was supposed to happen.  On paper, it could be perceived as…

Alice’s Review: “Supernatural” 15.07, “Last Call”

As these final episodes air, there’s a nagging question that keeps coming up.  How would I like the show to end?  I know that the end is truly not the end.  The story can carry on with limited series runs in the future like “The X-Files” or “Gilmore Girls,” or through a movie like “Firefly,”…

Alice’s Review: “Supernatural” 15.06, “Golden Time” aka A Much Needed Win

Huh.  Go figure.  I actually loved “Golden Time”.  I’m wracking my brain trying to figure out why, because it wasn’t a complicated or fast moving story by any means.  Maybe because it finally ended with a win.  Maybe it’s because I watched a really crappy episode of “The Flash” before it so the bar was…

Alice’s Review: “Supernatural” 15.05, “Proverbs 17:3” aka Flying Anvils Alert!

Sam and Dean are totally screwed.  That’s our big takeaway from this week’s episode, “Proverbs 17:3’. It took me week to come up with my last review on “Atomic Monsters.”  This week, it’s only taken me a few hours.  Why?  Because the episode can be summed up in just one word.  Depressing.  Nah, I’ll give…

Alice’s Review: “Supernatural” 15.04 – “Atomic Monsters” aka When Fans and Writers Collide

“Oh, Becky. I can do anything. I’m a writer.” Davy Perez really opened a can of worms in “Atomic Monsters,” hasn’t he?  I spent a good long week trying to process the underlying messages about the writers vs. the fans and it’s clever.  Wickedly clever.  It all leads to a three way struggle for between…

Alice’s Review: “Supernatural” 15.03 – “The Rupture”

Me:  Dean, haven’t we talked about building those walls?  Keeping those you love at arm’s length, being emotionally unavailable? It will result in your worst fear, you will be all alone.  Those walls will crumble on you.  Dean:  Yeah, well how about this wall?  (Scene of gruesome violence involving one very large brick wall…)  …
