“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…
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. “We Happy Few”…
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…
I’ll be honest with you. I’ve been contemplating three completely different approaches to my review of Supernatural’s 11th season pre-finale episode, “We Happy Few”. The obvious choice is to impartially analyze the dialog and plot because there were several important revelations in this episode. I’d like to do those justice, so I’ll get to those…
This episode, “Hell’s Angel,” was written by Eugenie Ross-Leming and Brad Buckner. The episode opens in a desert tent somewhere in Saudi Arabia
During this mini hiatus I thought it would be fun to take a closer, detailed look at the brothers’ bedrooms since moving into the Bunker. I made this a two part article, dedicating one to Dean’s room and the other to Sam’s room.
What do you want to see happen in S11? That question was asked of me and Alice in the TV Fanatic Roundtable for “Beyond the Mat”. Before Supernatural begins the final sequence of eight episodes that will hurdle us all toward whatever heart stopping, cliff-hanger disaster the Winchester brothers must endure this year, this question…
Like his brother, Dean has evolved in a multitude of ways since we first met him over ten years ago. On first glance, Dean was confident, cocky and maybe even arrogant to the surface glance. He was flash and sparkle to cover the untouched child issues and the deep emotional needs he couldn’t address in…
Happy New Year everyone! It is time for the part three of the animation series! If you want to check them out, here are the links for PART 1 and PART 2. As always, I will give a short introduction to the episodes and then offer a few words of what I think about them….
In fact, about the only substantial thing to change since I wrote this article is that Sidney Crosby had to have major dental reconstruction after taking a slapshot to the jaw. (Who knows? Maybe my writing has “Supernatural” powers?!) Let me know what you think! Why Happily Married Middle-Aged Women Love the WinchestersOriginally Published: January…
In the late half of Season 9, I decided to do something I’d never done: participate in a Supernatural Fan Fiction contest. I resolved not to do any slash but instead write up a big budget, movie style, possible “finale” to the show which tied up loose ends. I chose it as my Auld Lang…
Editor’s Note: The Winchester Family Business writing team wanted to do something very special for this year’s holiday season so we put together a new article series for your enjoyment. It’s called Auld Lang Syne, which means ‘Times Long Past’. The traditional New Year’s Eve song tells us that old friends should be remembered and…
