With the hellatus in full swing, you may find yourself already counting down the days until Friday, September 23rd. I know I am. So in order to help ease the pain of a world where Friday nights don’t mean new episodes, I came up with a list of ten ways to survive the hellatus. Hope…
Believe it or not it’s already time for the season six episode title origins. Was this not the quickest season ever? As usual, there are plenty of interesting references. Enjoy!
I can’t believe it’s over already. Wasn’t it just yesterday that we were welcoming Sam back from Hell with semi-open, extremely cautious arms? And look where we are now. This season has felt like a blur, yet so much has happened. In order to give this finale its due justice, I want to take a…
This Friday “Supernatural” will air its last two episodes for the season finale which gives the fans a double-dose of fire-and-brimstone. Episodes 6.21 “Let It Bleed” and 6.22 “The Man Who Knew Too Much” are hour long back to back episodes, although a two hour movie was contemplated originally. Kripke states, “There are so…
A few weeks ago, I told you all about a new online project coming from Supernatural Visual Effects Supervisor Ivan Hayden, Divine: The Series.

Then I started…

Clean Slates and The Quality of Mercy I did a lot of Shakespeare in high school. Wait… I’ve just made The Bard sound like an illegal drug. (Although, given the beauty of his writing, perhaps it is!) To rephrase – I studied a lot of Shakespeare in high school. And since, I…
Sam and Dean are many things. Hunters. Heroes. Antiheroes. Criminals. Saviors. Lovers. Brothers. And they are orphans. They are no longer anyone’s sons. As young adults they have to live without both their parents. The phenomenon of the adult orphan is not really on the radar of most people. Perhaps, because we tend to…
So, first off, how do a person and his or her name get to match? Is this because their parents/family instinctively choose an appropriate name? Is it the child who unconsciously tries to live up to what his or her name implies? How do the wishes and expectations the family has for the child come…
Ever wonder where all these great Supernatural episode titles come from? I did, so I decided to go through season-by-season and find the pop culture references associated with the episode titles. The first season was a bit tricky as you’ll see because most of the episode titles are simply a reference to the monster…
Open Supernatural Couch And Then There Were None Or ‘Just because you’re blood doesn’t make you family. You gotta earn that’ Ten little soldiers went out to dine; One choked his little self, and then there were nine.
