Being in the Room: Talking with “The Winchesters” Creative Team

Being in the Room: Talking with “The Winchesters” Creative Team

Going to New York Comic Con 2022 (“NYCC”) to see the premiere screening of The Winchesters was a near necessity for me.  Once it was announced that the “Pilot” episode would be shown to a ballroom full of people before it premiered on television, I went into full out panic/obsessed mode to get tickets, credentials and…

Big Sky Season Three Episode Eight Recap – Jensen Ackles Edition

Big Sky‘s “Duck Hunting” opens exactly where the last episode ended with a wide-eyed Luke being approached in the dark woods by a coldly calm Paige.  “Miss me?” she asks.  “Paige!” he exclaims, surprised and startled.  “You’re OK!”  “No thanks to you!” she retorts, arms crossed. Recollecting the last time they were together in the…

Wrangling Walker Season Three Episode Seven “Just Desserts”

Wrangling Walker Season Three Episode Seven “Just Desserts”

After several tightly-written, crime-focused episodes, we hit the mid-season finale with “Just Desserts”, a messy Thanksgiving family drama. There was a lot to like in this episode, with a focus on connections between people, gratitude, and mending fences. We got a dose of differing traditions, family bonds, and damaging secrets. We also saw what happens…

Walker: Independence Season 1 Episode 7 “The Owl And The Arrow” Recap/Review

Walker: Independence Season 1 Episode 7 “The Owl And The Arrow” Recap/Review

“The Owl And The Arrow” was a surprisingly fitting name for this week’s episode of Walker: Independence.  It was a tense look at Old West justice, period-accurate racism and prejudice, and some unfortunate realities of the world that still haven’t changed. Since the events of this episode are focused around the accusations and proceedings surrounding Francis…

Walker Season 3 Episode 7 “Just Desserts” Recap/Review

This week’s episode of Walker brought a few characters their “Just Desserts”. Since “Just Desserts” was so focused on the central event of the Walker Family Thanksgiving, I’m going to be covering all the hard-hitting action scene-by-scene.

Threads: The Winchesters Season 1 Episode 5 “Legend of a Mind”

The Morning After I’ve been very excited to dive into the “Threads” of The Winchesters fifth episode “Legend of a Mind”. So many themes of the season became clear, pulling together the strands of stories we had only glimpsed up to this point. Whereas the prior episode “Masters of War” was an emotional story, “Legend…

Wrangling Walker: Season 3 Episode 6 “Something There That Wasn’t There Before”

Wrangling Walker: Season 3 Episode 6 “Something There That Wasn’t There Before”

“Something There That Wasn’t There Before” was another strong Walker episode, with some interesting sibling tension—and resolution. Plus Supernatural fans got an ‘Easy, Tiger’ call back, as well as Winchester half-brother Jake Abel coming on as Kevin and plenty of sulfur. As usual, I’ll skip the recap and go for the things that stood out…

Walker: Independence Roundup Season 1 Episode 6 “Random Acts”

Walker: Independence Roundup Season 1 Episode 6 “Random Acts”

“Things aren’t always what they seem.” This is definitely true in the town of Independence. Just when one thinks they know what is going on, new information changes what they thought they knew. “Random Acts” was full of new information that changed what the Walker: Independence characters thought they knew, starting with …
