Let’s Speculate: Supernatural Episode 9.01 – “I Think I’m Gonna Like It Here”
Oh my my. Dean, Dean, Dean, WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST DO??? I have to admit, I’m utterly crushed right now. There is a ton to absorb here, so let’s get started.

Welcome to Part 3 of our (spoiler free!) photographic examination of Supernatural’s beloved character, Bobby Singer (to catch up on Bobby’s story, start with Part 1: Creating Bobby’s Character). To recap what has been covered so far, Bobby’s character was introduced to the Supernatural series at the end of its first season. Season 2 developed…
Welcome to Part 2 of the trip down memory lane for the lovable, gruff, cunning hunter named Bobby Singer! Part 1 (if you missed it, catch up here) looked at the development of Bobby’s character in seasons 1 and 2 of Supernatural. Continuing from there, this retrospective looks at how Bobby’s character was expanded in…
There has been a lot of talk lately about the character of Bobby Singer. Why did they kill him? How could they ever bring him back in a way that respects both the story and his character? Well, before season 9 begins and maybe, hopefully resurrects the Bobby we love, I thought it would be appropriate…

I liked “Taxi Driver”, a lot. Let me tell you why. I’m not much of a stickler for the nitty gritty. I don’t watch an episode and go, wait, that doesn’t gel with what was represented by canon in episode 5.ticketyboo. I don’t really care, it’s cool if you do, it’s just I don’t. It’s…
Where to even begin with this episode? On my first viewing I was really torn about where I stood. The highs were high, the lows were low – how to discuss? Now that I’ve considered, analyzed, re-analyzed and over-analyzed and after a third viewing I feel much more level about this episode. So, let’s just…
There were so many good things about this episode, I’m not sure where to start! The pacing was just right, we got to see a few old friends (Bobby and Benny!!), we got to see a little more of that beautiful Purgatory camera filter (I just love it.), we got a little Crowley and a…
Warning! If you haven’t seen “Taxi Driver,” then read no further! There will be heavy discussion about the episode, aka lots of spoilers. Do yourself a favor and watch the episode before you venture inside and theorize with me.
There’s still a lot of time let of the Countdown Clock. Tigershire is back with another way to help us pass the time. A Bobby Singer word search!
