Hi, I’m Deb! Welcome to my new series! Here’s my idea: I will give my TOP 10 elements of an episode – The 5 Good and The 5 Bad things plus a random fact just for fun. The random fact may fit with the episode or may have nothing to do with it at…
This week, I’ve been musing about family dramas. There are many great examples of the genre in television, films, and novels. I wanted to review an episode of Supernatural that had some poignant family drama, so I picked the premiere episode of season five. This episode has incredible drama between our favorite brothers and also…
The list you’ve all been waiting for! The second half of the season eleven hits and misses. Let’s dive right in…
“The king who is situated anywhere immediately on the circumference of the conqueror’s territory is termed the enemy. The king who is likewise situated close to the enemy, but separated from the conqueror only by the enemy, is termed the friend (of the conqueror).” — Kautilya, Arthasastra: Book VI, “The Source of Sovereign States” Or as…
After I made “A Tribute to the Kick-Ass Women of Supernatural” and part 2 , I wanted to write a similar article about men. I value both in Supernatural because the show has some of the most remarkable guest actors and actresses, so the loss of both are deeply felt. I decided to use the same…
In honour of season 11 and all the attitude adjustments it wrought, today we’re counting down some of the top ten “redemption” hits in Supernatural history.
Editor’s Note: Each week Karen visually recapped what she felt were the best and most memorable moments of the new Supernatural episode. The list varied from week to week, depending on what transpired in the episode. Towards the end of the season, we skipped a few episodes, though, usually for scheduling reasons. “Don’t Call Me…
“Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring Even if time has gone by, I have still mixed feelings about writing this article. “Don’t Call Me Shurley” was a magnificent episode. If you ask me, it was the finale on which this season should have…
As Supernatural fans already know, Supernatural is a complex drama, built over years upon a foundation of mythology and recurring themes. Its dialog is intricate, often layered with thematic threads, double meanings and foreshadowing. The “Threads” review series closely examines these subtlties, to both more thoroughly appreciate the detail of the plots and to attempt…
God is dying. The sun is dying. It has never been more dire than right now on Supernatural. Plan A has been an utter failure with every single supernatural being defeated and the Winchesters largely left to pick up the pieces—only to watch everything fade and end anyways. The group is whisked back to the…
Alpha & Omega – as finales go, what can we say? It was certainly a unique finale in it’s own right – free of dramatic explosions, supernatural cliffhangers (by and large) and even had a (mostly) happy conclusion to the season-long conflict. Of course that’s not to say we weren’t left with more questions and…
Alpha and Omega. I can’t think of a more perfect name for this episode. We got two ends of the spectrum. On one side, it was an entertaining, emotional, strangely optimistic episode that promoted all the things we love about this show; family bonding, all creatures of the universe (including reapers) coming together to save…
