It’s been a real busy week for SPN news, so it’s time to do another installment of SWWN! We have some Walker news, Jensen new project news, some renewal news about shows from former producers, and of course, the return of Creation SPN cons! This weekend was the big con in Denver, and I’ve scraped…
Here’s little something to whet our appetite for any Walker news, especially since October 28th is still a bit away. Jared sat down for a nice interview with the most fabulous Damian Holbrook from TV Insider (so happy to see him getting the Walker assignment!). Jared is doing the whole executive producer thing and spilling some…
A Week Later Bravo, Walker! “Drive”, season one’s climactic finale, had the storytelling power and agility we’ve been waiting for all season! Everything the characters said was important and relevant. Their decisions were logical and relatable. The emotional intensity was earned and shared by the audience. The action was believable. The revelations were spell binding….
The Walker first season finale was what every season finale should be: emotional and action packed yet still focused on the characters while enticing the audience for the upcoming season. But, above all, the season finale should tie up the season before it. This episode accomplished that with showing the culmination of the characters’ growth…
Well, that was a heck of a ride! Despite the season’s uneven writing and characterization, it finished strong—and left us not with a cliffhanger but with a sense of foreboding that there’s more trouble yet to come. For Supernatural fans, there were a lot of ‘family’ references, and a very satisfying ‘I need to talk to my…
Hard to believe, but here we are at the end of Walker season one! Looks like we might actually get to see that unhinged Cordell Walker we’ve been dying to see all season. Or maybe not. I guess we’ll find out. Here is the synopsis, courtesy of The CW. It really doesn’t share…
The Morning After I know I should have loved Walker’s climactic episode “Dig”. The second half of the episode was non-stop action! The story’s climax revealed an answer we’ve been theorizing about and waiting for all season. There was a spectacular car crash that gave Supernatural fans PTSD flashbacks of the Impala getting T-Boned in…
Another strong episode, this time directed by Richard Speight, Jr. who of course was not only the Archangel Gabriel in Supernatural but also directed several episodes of the show—and who will be coming back to direct again in Walker Season 2. There was a lot to like about this episode—and one thing I really didn’t…
Featured heavily in “Dig,” the 17th episode of Walker’s first season, was “Spirit Week,” a time when people reveal their truths and feelings, and wow, did those come out this episode. At the heart was…
We’re getting very close to the season one finale. There’s one more episode after this one, which is titled “Dig.” But that’s really not the big news about this penultimate S1 episode. Our dear SPN fan fave Richard Speight Jr. is the director! So glad to see the love getting spread around the projects. …
Yes! This is what I’ve been waiting for from Walker. If the show can keep up this level of writing—coherent plot, consistent characterization, and incisive social commentary, it might have a shot at the Emmys for next year. I really hope this means the writers have stepped up their game and that this isn’t just…
Episode 1.16 of Walker tackles the heavy topics of police corruption and brutality from the human view of a person of color trying to change the system from within. However, thematically, it also explores who the characters are, and how they can’t always be who they are inside. Sometimes this is a bad thing, but…
