Our panel took on the ultimate question, what would Sam or Dean put on their Facebook page if they had one? Yes, we had to deal with diversiony questions like that, especially since the episode didn’t give us a whole lot to talk about. So what do you think Sam and Dean would say on…
There are several different layers to each Supernatural episode. Fans can watch the obvious story of the monster hunt, the symbolic story of the myth arc, or the dramatic story of the Winchester brothers’ plight. We almost always notice and comment on the superb acting, and often we notice the sets, but it is easy…
This week’s hunt in Supernatural’s “Halt and Catch Fire” was reminiscent of early episodes in the series’ history. A kill, a drive, a hunt with lessons that paralleled the brothers’ larger story arc, some problem solving, a win, and a broment in or around Baby. Felt good, didn’t it? Just the boys, the people to…
When it comes to ghost stories, “Supernatural” is in its wheelhouse. The lore has been well established, so there’s no need for new exposition and unraveling semantics. We get to sit back, relax, and enjoy a good old fashioned spooky tale. That’s not exactly what we got.
I do admit to being a little late in sharing this week’s TV Fanatic roundtable, but I think this is one of the more lively ones we’ve had in a while. We were all pretty entertained, and who knew that the entire panel would kind of dig Taylor Swift? I think we were just happy…
This episode was written by Eric Charmelo and Nicole Snyder and is a MOTW focused on the digital age, digital natives, yeah, the young ‘uns and their damn technological devices.
We’re coming up on Spring Hellatus. We only have this episode and one more before our next break. So what do we know?
The fantasy story that was at the core of Supernatural’s “About A Boy” only worked because the actors who brought it to life made it believable. Let’s look at the nuances in each of their performances.
Throughout its ten year history, Supernatural has taken many chances. It’s done everything from slow dancing aliens to thrusting its main characters into a television world to faeries. It’s played with form giving us a faux reality episode to a musical-ish interpretation of the show’s history. Supernatural has given us bizarre monsters and bizarre scenarios—such…
If there is one thing Supernatural can do, and do very well, it’s high apprehension. After ten years of watching the Winchester boys, more often than not I’m on bated breath sometime before the end (usually by the opening credits if we’re being honest). The other thing the show does well, honed after over two…
I have to get this out of the way right off the bat – the first half of “About A Boy” was flawless!
I’m one of those people that absolutely loathed season nine’s “Bad Boys.” I thought it was contrived, manipulative, and a totally unnecessary piece of trash. When I found out that there would be another story involving the same teenage Dean, written by the same writer Adam Glass, my expectations fell right into the gutter. Turns…
