“The Devil You Know” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel That first scene was just awful! I hate labs with all the helpless animals being subjected to tests, even though I know it’s ultimately for the good of humankind. I guess they gave the one doc a shot of the Croatoan virus, and it’s working…
Thoughts on “Hammer of the Gods” Going into this episode, I thought it’d be light-hearted and funny. I didn’t read the descriptions but I did see the preview clip. Little did I know that Lucifer and the Trickster would be returning and thus overshadowing the humour with drama and emotion. At first, when Changing Channels…
Open Supernatural Couch after Hammer of The Gods Or Your friendly neighbourhood therapist on the verge of a nervous breakdown – wanna join? The last episode Hammer of The Gods was not one of the most heartbreaking ones of our favourite show. I was not a complete basket case as I had…
“Hammer of the Gods” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Poor cop–I wonder what he was doing there, anyway? Weird goings-on to investigate? Why didn’t any of his fellow officers follow up? Why did the tulip come back to life? Why do gods eat people, anyway? That’s not nice! The gods fight like children, are…
Point of No Return, by Elle2 There is something so huge about a show’s 100th episode that if not careful, it can go over the top. Supernatural successfully avoided that trap, so successfully that with all the hype, if the viewer is not in turn careful, it can be a letdown. If you were looking for…
“Point of No Return” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel This is going to be especially rambling because this episode got me in such a super-dither. My emotions were in a crazy stew by the end of this ep, bubbling happily at the end. Bobby showing Dean the gun and bullet he had on hand…
Thoughts on 99 Problems When this episode opened with a high speed chase (featuring the Impala in all her glory and being wounded with a broken window) I thought we were in for an X Hours Ago to tell us the story leading up to the chase – not what happened. The heroes instead were…
99 Problems –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel I need to buy stock in a tissue company. Seriously. Kripke has killed me again, my heart, my tear ducts, everything. It’s obvious that Dean’s sweet, tearful farewell to Lisa (and let’s face it, although he saved her son who might be his), their affair was only…
Thoughts on Dark Side of the Moon DSotM was an exercise in devastated hearts and lost hope. It was also full of welcome friends, more-maniacal-by-the-minute foes and threads of what’s to come. Sad and crushing events twisted up the Winchester brothers and left them broken, battered and raw. Death Comes (Again) Had I not seen…
We have another guest submission, this time from joelsteinlover. It is her first recap and she is taking on “Dark Side of The Moon.” Now, I’m sure many of you ask, why do I sometimes post so many reviews and recaps on one episode? Because, especially with this episode, no one usually views a scene the…
“Dark Side of the Moon” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” usually makes me cry, and in conjunction with the brothers, ALWAYS! The memory of the brothers playing with fireworks, having a great time together (and doing something John would have killed them for) also made me teary, especially with that…
Recap Then: We start with a montage of some of the Winchester brothers’ most memorable deaths and Bobby’s voice saying “how many times have you two died anyway?” This can’t be good news for what’s to come. Castiel’s trying to find God, and wants to do it using the amulet that Sam gave to Dean…
