Auld Lang Syne:  Bardicvoice’s Favorite Supernatural Reflections

Auld Lang Syne: Bardicvoice’s Favorite Supernatural Reflections

For my “old long ago,” I blew the dust off my two 2013 dissertations on the show’s use of angels  – one as a group, and one specifically on Castiel – to set the stage for a “new, more recent” look at what the show has done with angels since then. While I organize my…

Auld Lang Syne: Farawayeyes’ Favorite Reflections on Supernatural

This profile is about one of my all time favorite Supernatural writers, Robbie Thompson.

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 11.08, “Just My Imagination” aka Manicorns and Mermaids and Air Guitar, Oh My!

Oh show.  The things you think of when killing a Manicorn.  And digging into old childhood wounds to solve a current problem.    “Just My Imagination” is an excellent bridge of these recent MOTW stories to the big mytharc midseason finale happening next week.  More importantly, it contributed to the overall strength of this season…

Far Away Eyes’ Deeper Look Supernatural 11.7 “Plush”

Far Away Eyes’ Deeper Look Supernatural 11.7 “Plush”

Sometimes, to truly master something, we must in turn teach it to someone else. Underneath the masks and ghost possessions of “Plush,” we see just that. The Winchester brothers have been hunting all their lives, living by the credo of “saving people, hunting things, family business,” but it is only recently that they have chosen…

Threads: Supernatural 11.01 “Out of the Darkness, Into the Fire”

It feels so good to have Supernatural back.  The instant “The Road So Far’ launched the season 11 premiere, the long hiatus was over. Watching Sam and Dean fight evil made everything right in the world, at least for an hour. The show and the fandom were reunited. People who hadn’t corresponded on social media…
