It’s hard to believe that Robbie Thompson has only written for two seasons of Supernatural. His episodes are full of pop culture, heart, soul, and brotherly moments that make it seem as if he’s been writing for the show since the beginning. Thompson has managed to grasp the core of the story easily and has…
