Having had such a positive reaction to my retro-look at The Pilot – and a moment of Wendigo – I decided to try my hand at another of Season 1’s episodes that stood out from the others. Granted, some of you may say to yourself – she chose that episode? What about Home or Faith or Shadow…
We’ve had some fascinating female characters in this show, but only Ruby and Bela endured for more than one episode. Inspired by elle’s latest article, I felt compelled to take a closer look at one of the show’s most misunderstood and most hated characters, ‘the so-called Bela Talbot’.
I love going back and recapping landmark episodes. You know, the ones that constantly stick with either Sam and Dean forever and traces of it can still be seen today. This one especially is a ground breaking character defining moment. Dean Winchester was never the same after this. For those that are trying like mad…
My good friends Lynn and Kathy at Fangasm have posted their Jim Beaver Interview from the Chicago con. He shares some great behind the scenes info including pranking Jared and Jensen. It’s a pretty entertaining read, especially since Jim was coasting on fumes when this interview took place at 3 am. Enjoy! http://fangasmthebook.wordpress.com/2009/12/10/jim-beaver-talks-jensen-jared-and-subtext-%e2%80%93-and-pranks-back/#more-66
Okay, it’s been a couple of days and the responses have considerably slowed, so for those of you dying to know the answers to the Trivia Quiz, I won’t keep you hanging. I’ll tell ya, a couple of you came close, but no one got the answers 100% right. So, I must have done my…
As you all may have noticed, I tend to post articles from guest contributors for the site. Only elle2 though has ever been deemed an official “Winchester Family Business writer.” It’s taken me long enough, but I’m so lucky to get so many great articles from these people that recognition is due. I’m giving the “staff writer” title to five…
What’s so great about Season 1? With all of the rumors, gossip, hope or whatever, that there will be a Season 6 the prevailing theme (in the two or three comments I’ve painstakingly sought out and read) is that Kripke is going to return Supernatural to its roots, you know, the ones of Season…
You know, I had it all planned. I was going to use my bitching javascript programming skills to tweak some canned module out there that had a trivia quiz application. I was going to do this fancy interface using multiple choice and giving correct answers instantly as well as keeping score. Guess what? Yeah, still in the planning…
I’m really proud to share this one. Sablegreen has been working on this for a while and has done some most excellent research into pursuing a theory about Supernatural’s appeal in today’s down economy and whether it might have an impact on ratings. Since I seem to be an avid follower of TV ratings and…
Today’s thought bending contribution comes from Randal. Inspired by Jasminka’s “Warriors of Light” he takes his brain twisting knowledge of literature (as well as occupational hazard) and has come up with a rather inspired analysis of texts and their role in Supernatural. You’ll never look at a book the same way again! I’m still in awe over the creative minds…
Sam and Dean – Guilty As Hell? The Double-Edged Sword of Guilt of the Winchester Psyche ‘Guilt is the very nerve of sorrow’, Horace Bushnell once said. Everyone who ever felt guilty will easily second that quote, and it doesn’t matter really why the emotional condition we call guilt entered our system. We…
We have a winner in the “first to write an amulet article” among the creative minds on this site! The Sera Gamble interview sparked the debate, so Jasminka was inspired to do her take on the whole thing. As usual, it’s a very thoughtful look. Enjoy! ———————————————————————– Once Upon a Time There Was an Amulet… …
