Um… You know, on the first watch, “Rock Never Dies” wasn’t so bad. No, it wasn’t very exciting. I remember when it was half over I thought, “There’s still 30 minutes left of this?” Pacing was glacial to say the least. But honestly, three things made it a watchable episode for me. First, I’m…
The Morning After I realized something rather interesting (at least I thought it was interesting) as I was considering my reaction to Supernatural’s seventh episode of season 12, “Rock Never Dies”. A pattern is emerging in the look and feel of some of the episodes. It’s as if there’s a “thread” in the approach to…
This week’s episode was written by Bob Berens and focuses on Lucifer’s return. The show begins “one week ago” with a séance by two young men who are conjuring Lucifer.
What can I say that hasn’t already been said? “The Foundry” was a well written, cohesive, dramatic tale that did everything in its power to effectively tell another chapter in the tragic yet heroic story of a family named Winchester. It hit all the right marks, had characters that were actually acting in character, and…
Sometimes, to better understand or grow the Supernatural universe, we must examine secondary characters center stage. By doing so, we grow closer to the Winchester brothers and learn about another person within their world.

The Morning After I’m still reeling from seeing Supernatural’s third episode this season, “The Foundry”. Saturated with mother’s instincts and parental grief, this story was emotionally exhausting. The hunt was about captive children who appealled to a mother to rescue them because she was the only one who sensed their need. Through most of the…
This week episode was written by Robert Berens and directed by Robert Singer and is titled “The Foundry.” The cold open begins with a hipster couple leaving a swanky restaurant. They are talking when they stop in front of an abandoned house and hear a baby crying. The woman goes into the house while her…
“If you ever wanna talk. I know what it’s like to come back and not feel like you really fit,” Sam tells his mother at the end of “Mamma Mia.” In many ways, the statement blankets the entire episode.

“Get a Room!” Supernatural’s Season 9 Motel Rooms By WEDNESDAY Browsing the SupernaturalWiki site, I noticed that the motel room descriptions stopped after Season Eight. The advent of the Bunker seriously negated the necessity for the boys to be on the road and at the mercy of tacky motel rooms. Jerry Wanek, set designers and…
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. To create my list for the…
