Symbolism can make a story’s rich tapestry all the more fulfilling and illuminating. It can add layers and depth revealing fresh insights. It can come in dialog, in music, and in visual cues. “Form and Void” makes use of all of these to tell its story—but most of all it uses Catholic symbolism to convey…
Welcome to “Memorable Moments”. Each week I will visually recap what I felt were the best and most memorable moments from that episode. The list may vary from week to week , depending on what has transpired in that particular episode.
“Form and Void” was one of the most intense episodes in Supernatural’s history, at least for me. The three members of Team Free Will were each isolated and desperate, facing an extreme situation. Brutal torture and betrayal of one, mere hours to death for a second, and understanding and accepting that a baby is evil…
“In the beginning, there was only dark. You ask me, the light’s winning.” Okay, you got me. I snagged that line from “True Detective.” Still, isn’t is appropriate? The phrase “form and void” comes from the bible, the second chapter of Genesis. “And the earth was ‘formless and void’ and the darkness was over the…
“Form and Void”, written by Andrew Dabb, begins where the season premiere left off.
We’re trying something new this season. Each week I will visually recap what I felt were the best and most memorable moments from that episode. The list may vary from week to week , depending on what has transpired in that particular episode. Inspired by my “Brotherly Moments” series, welcome to “Memorable Moments”!
Adapt or die. The phrase has stood the test of time.
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…
The words “Season Eleven” just about says it all (insert your own “This one goes to 11″ joke here). In one way you’re just shocked that your favorite show is still on the air and that you have something to look forward to on your Wednesdays each week. On the flip side, the show isn’t…
With fall in the air, the 11th Season premiere of Supernatural is close at hand. No matter what you may have thought of season 10, the finale set up many new storylines for this coming year. Dean no longer has the Mark of Cain, he presumably killed Death (though we know it’s never that easy),…
Back when “The Prisoner” aired for the first time in May, I was pretty livid. I couldn’t believe that an hour of my time, right in the crucial part of the season, was wasted by such garbage. After writing a scathing review, consensus among the WFB editorial team was that it wouldn’t be published. After…
The Darkness. The next unimaginably bad, impossible-to-defeat enemy unleashed by the Winchesters. When The Darkness billowed over the remote landscape, was I the only one who was reminded of the demon-filled black smoke that escaped Hell in “All Hell Breaks Loose 2”?
