Alice’s Review: Supernatural 10.09, “The Things We Left Behind” aka Where’s My Sci-Fi Show?

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 10.09, “The Things We Left Behind” aka Where’s My Sci-Fi Show?

As a long time fan, I just don’t know what to say.  I’m usually open to a show re-inventing itself.  I’m usually open to the idea of creative license.  I’m usually open to pushing character studies over real action (at times).  But I absolutely hated “The Things We Left Behind.”  As in fire spewing, cursing…

Let’s Discuss: Supernatural Season Ten Happiness Thread

I know there are happy “Supernatural” fans out there.  Unless all those comments of joy about our show on Twitter week after week are coming from all unusually happy people that just like joining in on fun even though they’ve never seen the show, there’s a bunch of you that love “Supernatural” for what it…

TV Fanatic Roundtable:  Supernatural 10.08, “Hibbing 911”

TV Fanatic Roundtable: Supernatural 10.08, “Hibbing 911”

It’s that time again!  Before taking in the midseason finale, our panel of Supernatural experts – myself, Narsimha Chintaluri, Carla Day and Sean McKenna of TV Fanatic – look at the one before it, “Hibbing 911.”  Did we like the story of the Monster hunting cops while Sam and Dean hang along for fun?  Yes,…

Let’s Discuss: The Supernatural Season Ten Bitterness Thread

We’re almost halfway through season ten and one thing is pretty clear, some fans are happy, some fans are disappointed, and some fans are sticking pins right now in their very own Jeremy Carver voodoo dolls.  The criticisms are various.  There’s either too much time being spent on the angel storyline or not enough, Sam…

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 10.08, “Hibbing, 911” aka The Good, The Bad, and The Inexcusable

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 10.08, “Hibbing, 911” aka The Good, The Bad, and The Inexcusable

Episodes like “Hibbing 911” are hard to look at too critically.  The intent is light fun and filler before we get to the meaty stuff and as far as filler goes, I liked it.  Once in a while you’ve got to change it up and give the lead characters a rest, and this worked well…

TV Fanatic Roundtable:  Supernatural 10.07 – “Girls, Girls, Girls”

TV Fanatic Roundtable: Supernatural 10.07 – “Girls, Girls, Girls”

This season just keeps on rolling and so do the TV Fanatic roundtables.  Myself, Narsimha Chintaluri and Sean McKenna pondered some interesting questions this week, like what is Rowena all about, did we enjoy Cole’s resolution and how surprising was Hannah’s decision (for those that grown to care).  Then there’s that Dean and the pesky Mark…

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 10.07 – “Girls, Girls, Girls”

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 10.07 – “Girls, Girls, Girls”

There we go, some actual, fluid, well paced and just plain well written story telling!  One of the glaring weaknesses with a majority of the “Supernatural” scripts over the last four or five seasons has been the inability to juggle multiple overlapping stories at once.  Heck, they aren’t even good at tackling two strong character…

TV Fanatic Roundtable:  Supernatural 10.06 – “Ask Jeeves”

TV Fanatic Roundtable: Supernatural 10.06 – “Ask Jeeves”

It’s that time again, where our illustrious Supernatural panel at TV Fanatic muse over the previous episode.  Between myself, Carissa Pavlica, Narsimha Chintaluri and Sean McKenna, I think the consensus was pretty unanimous about “Ask Jeeves.”  Not bad, but none of us were blown away.  Even one smart alec commented the reviewers are “clueless.”  Oh wow,…

The WFB Spoilery Lite/Speculative Preview:  Supernatural 10.07, “Girls, Girls, Girls”

The WFB Spoilery Lite/Speculative Preview: Supernatural 10.07, “Girls, Girls, Girls”

I get to pull preview duty this week, which is kind of bizarre for me for two reasons.  For one, I haven’t done one of these previews in a while and two, I’m writing a preview about an episode that I have absolutely no clue what it’s about!  Yes, call it being spoilerphobic, laziness, or…

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 10.06 – “Ask Jeeves”

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 10.06 – “Ask Jeeves”

I vaguely remember the movie Clue.  It was a ludicrous concept, a whole movie of antics based on a board game.  It had three endings and none of them was a Scooby Doo ending (Wayne’s World got it right).  I also know that it was a forgettable film because I don’t remember anything else about…
