Prisoner: noun – “individual who is or feels restrained or trapped by a situation or set of circumstances.” Not only does this word aptly define all three of our main characters (and then some) at this point in the game, but it is also profoundly appropriate for the viewer this week- so captivated by the…
There isn’t much in the way of coherent thought after an ending like this one. Aside from the image of Charlie’s prone body half-in, half-out of the bathtub, well, the mind is mostly blank. “Dark Dynasty” was all about the family unit, in one way or another and the emotions – and thereby actions –…
What to say about “Angel Heart”? As villains and devious concepts go, this episode fell considerably short in the grand Supernatural scheme. Evil beings feeding on a humans while the human lives in a utopia mentally? Well, it’s wholly similar to the idea of a Djinn, first presented much more significantly in “What Is and…
Good intentions produce negative consequence: a running theme throughout this week’s installment. It is a hard learned lesson on any day, but when you mix in spells and witches and hex boxes, well, it’s even more complicated and gets even messier. “The Werther Project” served as an epilogue of sorts to 10.18. The details of…
Phenomenal. Truly, that is the only thought I had after watching this episode. It was 42 minutes and change of fully engrossing television and one of the best episodes this season has had to offer. From the opening, which started like a scene from a Marvel adapted television series with the darkened alleyway and hooded…
Well, even before I saw this episode between the preview and the excited, emotional tweets exploding my phone 24 hours before I was able to watch it, I just knew it was going to be one of those gut-wrenching, heart bursting installments that would take days to recover from. In hindsight, the watered down version…
Alright, let’s talk about 10.16, “Paint it Black”.
Drama, Drama, Drama! Let’s take a look at two very different perspectives on a very intriguing episode from the season six trick bag – Unforgiven.
We’re a couple weeks into hiatus now after the masterpiece of The Executioner’s Song and while there are hundreds of nuances available for analysis and examination in that episode, the pre-cursor Halt and Catch Fire offers a much calmer and arguably more classically formulated episode inspiring its own thoughts on later viewings as well.
Season Six: Ups and downs, relationships new and old and full of unexpected appearances, trips and reveals. Let’s look at what worked and what should have been left alone…
If season five ended with loss and devastation, season six started with a bang and a brand new reality shift an entire year after overwhelming grief and destruction. Year Six brought family man Dean, the return of Sam and a whole new cast of characters in the Campbell clan. And that was all in the…
From the title alone, there was no doubt this was going to be a powerful episode. Throw in an appearance by Cain and everything is fully primed for one of those emotionally overwhelming game-changers that will be talked about for months to come. For the most part, this did the job – with just few,…
