It’s always disappointing to read casual, dismissive references to Supernatural as simply a fantasy genre show featuring two hunky brothers. While that superficial description of the show is true on its face, it merely provides the framework for a profound exploration of a multitude of bigger themes: loyalty, family, morality, self-sacrifice, free will and destiny,…
“What Is and What Should Never Be” is number 3 on my Top Ten of all Time Supernatural Episodes!
There’s one thing almost every Supernatural fan can agree on: We love it when the brothers hug! After “The Executioner’s Song”, I read throughout the fandom how people considered Dean’s near-exhausted fall into Sam’s arms to be a hug. Yep. I did too. So that, coupled with a four-week hiatus, generated this little article: A…
Dear Jensen, On behalf of the Supernatural family, I want to thank you for the tremendous gift you gave us in “The Executioner’s Song”. The emotional depth you put into your performance left us breathless.
Want to talk about Dean Winchester but your thoughts are off topic from any of our articles? Well then, this thread is for you! It’s all about Dean here – his burdens, his hangups, his tragic losses, his badassery, his “make me explode” death stare, his awesome lines, his devotion to family and friends, his…
In part two, things really unravel for poor Dean now that he has the Mark of Cain, which seems like a chicken scratch for a bit of the second half until he gets to touch the First Blade. It’s the great fall of Dean Winchester, and it all plays out like a Greek tragedy. …
To say that this season was complicated for Dean Winchester is quite an understatement. Like he told Sam in “Sharp Teeth,” someone changed the rules. In Dean’s case, that rules change resulted in the worst case example of what happens when your life is devoted to others but not yourself. Did the punishment fit the…
Castiel is my favorite character, and I ship Destiel. There are many reasons I do this. I ship them because it adds to my enjoyment of the show. I ship them because it increases my desire to engage in fandom. I ship them because I like the idea of two badass male characters having…
After sharing the MTV Geek – Supernatural By Numbers article, Det_Coverdale wondered if anyone out there had compiled stats on how many times Sam and Dean had been bound by captors, or each other! When the answer was no, Det_Coverdale went to work and came up with the whole detailed breakdown by episode and season!…
I did one for Sam so naturally, I’ve got to look at Dean too! After all, Sam isn’t the only Winchester that has taken some pretty hard licks in eight seasons. Dean has seen quite a few gruesome injuries himself, and it’s time to fondly remember (and wince) at all those priceless times when life…
Hello and welcome to Romance, Bromance and Reflections! Today we will be looking at that frequently tossed about phrase “soulmate” and just what exactly it means in the Supernatural world these days. The impetus for today’s discussion really began brewing way back when in Goodbye Stranger – Amelia was referenced as Sam’s unicorn and it…
I toed and froed on how to do this piece. First up, I was going to tell Dean’s story in pictures… but I kind of covered that in Dean’s Journal. Then I thought, I know, I’ll get some really funny shots of him! Group them into fun faces. But…that seemed to miss out on so…
