Warning!!!! If you haven’t seen the season finale of “Supernatural,” don’t read this! Seriously, just back away now because you really want to stay spoiler free for this one, folks. I’m going to be talking about the cliffhanger ending, among other things, so PLEASE, don’t go any further if you haven’t seen the episode. …
This Friday “Supernatural” will air its last two episodes for the season finale which gives the fans a double-dose of fire-and-brimstone. Episodes 6.21 “Let It Bleed” and 6.22 “The Man Who Knew Too Much” are hour long back to back episodes, although a two hour movie was contemplated originally. Kripke states, “There are so…
I’m going to warn you all right now, this is a 100 percent lovefest. I think many people were unfairly critical of the episode and I’m determined to spell out in exhaustive detail why every single scene is sheer calcuated brilliance. Oh, but in doing that, you’re also in store for one crazy ass long recap. Seriously, it’s…
Open Couch – Swan Song Or “Death Shall Have No Dominion” A moment of some blinding reflection of sunlight, caught on the shiny metal of a 1967 Chevrolet Impala captures the eye of a young man entrapped and immobilized within his own body and reminds him of numerous memories of a…
Kripke’s Love Letter; Swan Song – by Elle2 Someone wrote [BuddyTV perhaps] that In The Beginning was a love letter from Eric Kripke to the fans. Not fully understanding the concept I couldn’t decide if I agreed or not, now having watched Swan Song, I get it; Swan Song is Eric’s love letter to the…
“Swan Song” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Our THEN recap begins with “Carry On, My Wayward Son,” what I consider to be the anthem of the Winchester family, and I begin to cry at the very first note. I cry even harder when they show us the explosion that led to the death of Ellen…
Thoughts on Swan Song Carry on my wayward son There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry (don’t you cry no more) Delighted applause was heard in my small corner of the world when then highly anticipated Kansas montage cued up. So many great moments to reflect…
“No Rest For the Wicked” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Dean dreams he is running from hellhounds. He awakens just as they catch up to and leap on him. He has fallen asleep on a particularly gruesome photo of a hellhound in a book, and he looks up to Sam’s worried but hopeful face–Bobby’s come up…
“Magnificent Seven” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Welcome to the first new episode of season 3! I was disappointed after the beauty of “In My Time of Dying,” which was about as perfect as a SUPERNATURAL episode can get, but this episode had its high points, too. “Hell’s Bells” plays over the re-cap, which was…
“In My Time of Dying” –Robin’s Rambles –Robin Vogel John Winchester is declared dead at 10:41 AM. His stricken sons, Sam and Dean, watch in sorrow as the hospital staff tries but is unable to revive him. He had seemed fine just moments before. In the aftermath of the devastating accident between the Impala and…
“Devil’s Trap” –Robin’s Rambles –Robin Vogel This episode is one of my top-five favorites. So many firsts…Bobby Singer and his fascinating salvage yard, his dog, Rumsfeld, the Key of Solomon, the Devil’s Trap, demon exorcism! Most of this became common-place, of course, but seeing it for the first time, ambrosial! From the moment the brothers…
I’m not sure what it is about “Shadow,” but it’s not one of my favorites. After re-watching I figured out why. For a good chunk of the episode, it isn’t thrilling. It’s boring actually. Since the plot isn’t so great, the strengths of the episode easily come from the Winchester family drama.
