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…

I enjoyed “Girls, Girls, Girls”. I wouldn’t go so far as to say I loved it, because it wasn’t filled with intense brotherly moments of healing and hugs, but it moved quickly and held my attention with a series of completely unexpected myth arc twists. The plot was intricately woven and the motivations were genuine…

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…

Far Away Eyes’ Review: “Supernatural” 10.6 “Ask Jeeves”

Colonel Mustard. With the lead pipe. In the Conservatory. Miss Scarlett. With the candlestick. In the library. Murder mysteries are always filled with secrets and misdirections that leave the audience guessing on the real identity of the killer. “Ask Jeeves” used the Clue theme as the perfect set up for the monster of the week….

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…

Elle2’s Review: Supernatural 10.06 – “Ask Jeeves”

My bet on the overall arc or through story or theme for Season 10:  Family.  Since “Black,” Sam has used the phrase “my brother” continuously all the way through Soul Survivor.  In Fan Fiction the theme was blaring from every set on that stage, family, family, family.  In Ask Jeeves we hear the word family…

Far Away Eyes’ Review: “Supernatural” 10.5 “Fan Fiction”

On the road so far, we’ve had 200 Supernatural episodes. 200. It’s a monumental achievement for any television show. And what a strange trip it’s been. Those episodes have ranged from dramatic to comedic to tongue in cheek to downright bizarre. Some episodes have made us cry while others have left us in stitches—and some…

I loved “Fan Fiction”. As a fan deeply invested in this series, passionate about the story, the characters, the canon, and well just about everything related to Supernatural, I loved every line of the episode. I loved the acknowledgement of Supernatural’s history. I loved that it started with reliving the beginning of this journey through…

CHUUUUUUUCCKKKKKK!!!!!  WE MISSED YOU!!!!!  I’m so freaking happy to see you!  It’s been way too long buddy.   Gee, did that ending give you a stir or what?  Back when I interviewed Jeremy Carver at Comic Con, he said that someone was coming back and he wouldn’t say who it was.  I know exactly what…
