(This was originally posted on Blogcritics.org but is no longer on the site. I’m reposting it here in order to get a full archive of my SPN reviews.) I remember when The CW switched “Jus In Bello” and “Mystery Spot” in season three. Even though “Jus in Bello” was filmed first, the switch was done…
“Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel No long synopsis here, you can go find that over at www.moogi.com under SUPERNATURAL. This episode made me cry a lot, not just for Bobby, which is to be expected, but for Sam and Dean, too. By the way, what happened to poor Dean’s…
Ah, Thursday night – at last you return with my Supernatural fix. I settled in with my tea, ready to continue on the Apocalyptic adventure with the Winchesters. But wait, what’s this? A basketball game? That can’t be right! Sadly, it was. Yes, the first new Supernatural episode in months was pre-empted by a basketball…
This is a repost of my review for “My Bloody Valentine” that was posted at blogcritics yesterday. I’ve got a few discussion points going, especially at the end regarding the progress of season five. I would love some opinions on that! Happy reading to those that haven’t seen this yet. ————————————————————————– Um…Wow. That’s a Valentine’s Day…
Thoughts on My Bloody Valentine How we are at episode fourteen of season five already, I’ll never know. The last four weeks have flown by in a whirlwind of mytharc and emotion. I truly enjoyed this episode. Coming off last week’s heart-break, the humour was much appreciated. The gore, much less so. Several watches under…
“My Bloody Valentine” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel I had to watch this one three times before I was able to write about it. First, Famine was the creepiest MOTW we’ve had in a long time. With his brown-yellow teeth, leathery skin and pale pallor, I couldn’t help but wonder why he would want to be…
This is just a repost of the review I submitted to blogcritics this week in case you didn’t see it. Something to tide you all over until I get the full recap up. Happy reading!
“The Song Remains the Same” Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel That title. What does it mean to Sam and Dean Winchester? That no matter how many times they go to the past, they can’t change it? That whether or not they believe about free will, they don’t really have any? As a viewer who spent much of last…
(This review was originally published at Blogcritics.org in 2010, but is no longer there. I’m reposting here to preserve my archive of SPN reviews.) So what if you held an apocalypse and only three bratty teenagers came? A major dud, that’s what. So, that brings us to the episode review for “Swap Meat.” The episode…
Swap Meat was one of those rare Supernatural episodes that left you feeling a little “meh” by the end. Not horrifically bad, nowhere near top quality. When the DVDs of season five hit, Swap Meat will be one of the episodes I choose when I only want ear-TV as a soundtrack to something else that…
5.12 – SWAP MEAT Robin’s Ramblings Robin Vogel I have never been disappointed in an episode of SUPERNATURAL before, but I was not impressed with last night’s “Swap Meat.” The performances were terrific, and some scenes stood out with humor and more, but the entire show was ruined for me for one reason: Dean would…
(This was originally posted on Blogcritics.org in 2010 but is no longer there. I’m reposting here so I’ll have a proper archive of all my SPN reviews.) On my website, thewinchesterfamilybusiness.com, I’ve been going back and doing mini reviews of Supernatural season one as the episodes air in syndication on TNT. The idea is that…
