Boys, boys, boys. Oh how you crush me so. Last week I went on a wee bit (yeah right) of a rant about how I was dying for movement in the whole angel thing. While the episode itself was well constructed, my overall sentiment was a rinse, lather, repeat type attitude. I’ve seen this with…
Man, virgins have it rough on this show. First we had Nancy, the secretary from “Jus in Bello” way back in season three, then there were all those girls in “Like a Virgin” and now we’ve got born-again virgins who have relapsed. It seems everyone wants to sacrifice them, collect them or eat them. Not…
Thoughts on 9×07 – Bad Boys Well, what is there really to say about this episode? It was emotional, sweet, nostalgic, revealing and incredibly touching. Bad Boys took a classic Supernatural haunting and used it as a window into a small piece of Winchester history. The writing was exceptional, the cinematography was beautiful and as…
From the very start, Supernatural has taken the art of the ghost story and elevated it to something more profound. The series may have started as a horror show, but it is the depth they place in their ghost episodes that take it to the next level. Instead of just focusing in on the thrills…
Ok I admit: I really liked this episode and not just because the upstate New York setting reminded me a lot of where I grew up. (and well… my first kiss was with a girl named Robin too) I liked not!Josh Brolin in this. He did a good job coming across as a someone stern…
Once upon a time I fell for this show. It was kinda creepy and then there were these two brothers… As time went on I fell head over heels in love with both of them. I loved how they loved each other. I could see it was co-dependent and not very healthy, but I…
Talk about nostalgia! This episode screamed classic ‘Supernatural’. Even the “Then” sequence brought back great memories of seasons past. And it feels like forever since we had a good old fashioned ghost hunt. Not to mention all the warm and fuzzies. I love flashback episodes. It’s so fun to get a peek at Sam and…
I always hate this part of the season. Its sweeps, so TPTB for “Supernatural” go for the stories they think fans will love, even though it’s very obvious that in the last four weeks there has been little to no movement on the season mytharc. This is where my challenges as a reviewer become tenfold,…
Thoughts on 9×06: Heaven Can’t Wait This episode was better than I expected in many ways and yet in so many other ways surprising. Going in I anticipated something more explosive, pardon the pun. Rather we got a quick look at the subplots that have been quietly in motion for six speedy weeks with very…
So far, season nine has been about the human condition. Supernatural has explored it in various and powerful methods throughout its history, but in this episode it is a vibrant thread. Normally, we explore this through Sam and Dean themselves—but the show takes advantage of the supernatural characters available to them—here a former angel and…
You know, I’m not much of a shipper all things concerned. I mean I have some opinions on which relationships work best for a character based upon what the narrative has done so far, but in general, as long as the creators put some effort into justifying the pairing, I don’t care. Still, I have…
Welcome Robert Berens. You did a very nice job. I guess I wasn’t looking forward to this episode quite as much as some people. I’m impatient (in a good way) for what’s going on between Sam and Dean and the nasty road that’s taking us down and though I’m interested to see how Castiel…
