Alice’s Review: Supernatural 12.08 – “LOTUS” aka The Book of Enoch Meets “Jus in Bello”

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 12.08 – “LOTUS” aka The Book of Enoch Meets “Jus in Bello”

Color me surprised!  I went into “LOTUS” with some incredibly low, sub zero basement low, if not totally despondent expectations.  I mean, how in the world were they going to turn around this fiasco known as season 12? The synopsis had me believing this, to quote Comic Book Guy, would be the worst…episode…ever.  Given the…

Alice’s Review:  Supernatural 12.07 – “Rock Never Dies” aka Distraction Addicts Anonymous

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 12.07 – “Rock Never Dies” aka Distraction Addicts Anonymous

Um…   You know, on the first watch, “Rock Never Dies” wasn’t so bad.  No, it wasn’t very exciting.  I remember when it was half over I thought, “There’s still 30 minutes left of this?”  Pacing was glacial to say the least.  But honestly, three things made it a watchable episode for me.  First, I’m…

TV Fanatic Supernatural Round Table: 12.06, “Celebrating the Life of Asa Fox”

TV Fanatic Supernatural Round Table: 12.06, “Celebrating the Life of Asa Fox”

So yes, in the rush of Thanksgiving and holiday shopping, I’m just now getting to our look at the latest TV Fanatic “Supernatural” roundtable.  The subject, episode 12.06, “Celebrating the Life of Asa Fox.”  Did we love it?  Does a bear…yeah I’ll stop there.  But still, we had some differing opinions on items like our…

TV Fanatic Supernatural Roundtable 12.05 – “The One You’ve Been Waiting For”

TV Fanatic Supernatural Roundtable 12.05 – “The One You’ve Been Waiting For”

Well, it’s pretty much unanimous, our panel of Supernatural pundits, myself, Nightsky, and Christine Laskodi and Sean Mc Kenna of TV Fanatic, didn’t think much of “The One You’ve Been Waiting For.”  Reactions ranged from “disappointed” to “hated it” (yeah, I think that last one was me), but overall it was agreed that this was indeed…

Alice’s Review – Supernatural 12.05 – “The One You’ve Been Waiting For” aka We’re Still Waiting

Alice’s Review – Supernatural 12.05 – “The One You’ve Been Waiting For” aka We’re Still Waiting

Well, that was certainly an odd duck in this versatile “Supernatural” universe, wasn’t it?  I get exactly the intent of the writer, Meredith Glynn, who delivered her first “Supernatural” script with “The One You’ve Been Waiting For.”  She chose to deliver a tongue-in-cheek tale that targeted something that shouldn’t be taboo by now, but this…

Alice’s Review – Supernatural 12.04 – “American Nightmare”

Alice’s Review – Supernatural 12.04 – “American Nightmare”

Welcome to “Supernatural” Davy Perez.  I got to meet this new writer at Comic Con this summer and it sounded like this new batch of writers were dedicated to telling unique stories while staying true to the SPN Verse.  After seeing the first episode from this new crop, “American Nightmare,” it looks like they’re off…

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 12.03 – “The Foundry” aka Too Much Drama?

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 12.03 – “The Foundry” aka Too Much Drama?

What can I say that hasn’t already been said?  “The Foundry” was a well written, cohesive, dramatic tale that did everything in its power to effectively tell another chapter in the tragic yet heroic story of a family named Winchester.  It hit all the right marks, had characters that were actually acting in character, and…

TV Fanatic Supernatural Roundtable 12.02 – “Mamma Mia” and 12.03 – “The Foundry”

TV Fanatic Supernatural Roundtable 12.02 – “Mamma Mia” and 12.03 – “The Foundry”

Wondering what our panel of “Supernatural” pundits had to say about the episodes from the last two weeks?  Myself, Nightsky, and Christine Laskodi and Sean McKenna from TV Fanatic had a lot of ground to cover.  What did we think of Mary’s story?  Lucifer?  The British Men of Letters?  It’s all in these two links. …

Alice’s Review:  Supernatural 12.02, “Mamma Mia”

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 12.02, “Mamma Mia”

When watching any TV show, especially one that you’ve been watching a long time, enjoying an episode more has to do about level setting than anything.  For example, I watch “Arrow” for the characters because the plots and villains often fall into ludicrous territory.  I watch new show “Designated Survivor” mostly for Kiefer Sutherland but…
