Nate’s Episode Review – Supernatural 15.13 “Destiny’s Child”
Well, I knew who wrote this episode without even paying attention to the credits.
Well, I knew who wrote this episode without even paying attention to the credits.
Doppelgangers and flashbacks. Old faces and new souls. This episode had a lot happening, past, present and even future (in some roundabout ways) and yet by the end, were we very much different from where we began? Time will tell.
The Morning After Now that’s more like it! Supernatural‘s “Destiny’s Child” engaged the imagination. There was mystery, emotion and plot development. Granted, some of the new canon that was introduced to advance our heroes’ plights required a massive suspension of disbelief, but at least the episode mostly made sense and was super fun to watch!…
What a fascinating episode. For me, Supernatural episodes fall into one of the following three categories: 1. Essential to the arc of the season 2. Monster of the week 3. Comedy/One-offs (ala “The French Mistake”) This episode was kind of, sort of, all three mixed up into one. It’s thrown me for a loop a little.
THEN – Baby’s tail lights. Cas confusedly watching porn on TV, while Sam and Dean look at him, mortified. “I learned that from the pizza man.” Cas kisses Meg. Ruby opens the door for Bobby and Dean and asks, “Where’s the pizza?” Dean eats pizza – pizza – pizza. “I’m done.” Jack. Billie. Sam says…
And we’re back! After a long hiatus and a world vastly different that it seemed six weeks ago, we are back with the boys to learn more about Billie’s plans for Chuck, Jack and the apocalypse. Not to mention a quick pit stop in an alternate world and a reminder that despite Chuck’s approachable demeanor,…
Well at least it’s not too bad with canon this time…
Sigh. I’m feeling like Chuck these days. I’m tired of the alternate realities, the subplots, the failed spin-offs, etc. I just want a focused, somewhat interesting freaking story to play out in a satisfactory manner. Episode 12 out of 20 and that is not happening at all. Unfortunately, instead of going out with a bang,…
The Morning After Well, that was a bit of a surprise! It wasn’t what I had hoped to see but maybe it was what needed to be shown. Don’t get me wrong. I’ve enjoyed all of Kaia’s episodes, largely because Yadira Guevara-Prip is a good young actress. She has excellent timing and presence on the…
Wow. I am writing this moments after finishing the episode and I am completely and utterly floored. No show I watch could nail an episode with as complex moral, personal, and human issues as well as Supernatural. It is entrancing to see how the writers, actors and crew work together to create something that is…
Then: Back view of Baby, taillights glowing in the darkness. Voice asking, “What happened?” Dean telling Chuck in casino, “We’ll never give you the ending you want.” “We’ll see,” Chuck answering, unperturbed. Dean threatening Kaia so she’ll open a rift to the “Bad Place.” Dark Kaia killing Kaia. Speak of Destiny. Jack: “I’ll be able…
Meh. I’m not sure what it was, but “The Gamblers” just didn’t resonate with me. Perhaps my patience has bottomed out. Maybe it’s the seasonal affective disorder. Or maybe it’s the fact there’s nine episodes left in the entire series and we’ve gotten nowhere. They’re still stalling with flimsy plots. Judging by all the glowing…
