Point of No Return, by Elle2 There is something so huge about a show’s 100th episode that if not careful, it can go over the top. Supernatural successfully avoided that trap, so successfully that with all the hype, if the viewer is not in turn careful, it can be a letdown. If you were looking for…
“Point of No Return” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel This is going to be especially rambling because this episode got me in such a super-dither. My emotions were in a crazy stew by the end of this ep, bubbling happily at the end. Bobby showing Dean the gun and bullet he had on hand…
Yes, I’m incredibly fortunate again to get from Warner Brothers a critics episode preview. This time, I got to see the milestone 100th episode of Supernatural, “The Point of No Return” in its entirety. So what did I think?
“Long Distance Call” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel A man stands in his study, nervously drinking. His phone, showing caller ID SHA33, keeps ringing; it’s a woman named Linda who professes her love, asks if he loves her, yet he keeps hanging up on her. Finally, unable to tolerate the phone calls, he destroys the phone–but…
Okay, before we get started, one MAJOR issue will be gotten out of the way now. There is no continuity between this episode and “My Bloody Valentine.” The reason is because this was filmed as episode 5.14 and “My Bloody Valentine” was supposed to be episode 5.15. Then the network decided to come back from Winter Hellatus in…
(This was originally posted on Blogcritics.org but is no longer on the site. I’m reposting it here in order to get a full archive of my SPN reviews.) I remember when The CW switched “Jus In Bello” and “Mystery Spot” in season three. Even though “Jus in Bello” was filmed first, the switch was done…
“Mystery Spot” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Sam sits up in bed, awakened to “Heat of the Moment” on the radio. “Rise and shine, Sammy!” says Dean enthusiastically, tying his boots on his bed. “Dude, Asia?” asks Sam. “C’mon, you love this song and you know it!” says Dean cheerily. “And if I ever hear…
“A Very Supernatural Christmas” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel This episode would be on my top 10 list of favorites. It’s a really sick episode with a heartwarming brotherly ending, filled with really terrible sick, funny stuff, including terrorizing children, which is SO cruel and wrong for a Christmas episode. Plus we learn where Dean got…
“Bedtime Stories” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Could you BE more gay? is what Dean asks Sam in the course of this investigation. Three hefty brothers argue at a construction site. One is killed by a snarling creature, the other survives the attack. A big, fat frog wends its way through this entire episode, hoping,…
It’s been my goal to clean up and improve my Season Three recaps as I can. I so far have only fixed “Mystery Spot,” so in honor off the holidays here’s my new and improved recap for “A Very Supernatural Christmas.” Enjoy! ——————————————————————————- What a better way to celebrate this special holiday season than to re-experience…
“We now return to Supernatural.” Back to the sunny, very warm and inviting Sun and Sands. We get a repeat of Dean’s cheesy “Son of a Bitch” tagline, just in case you forgot where they left off. Sam escorts the bikini clad bombshell out and Dean watches lustfully. Actually, that’s no sitcom acting. He actually…
This recap is ridiculously long. I was not kidding when I said last week I’d be setting a record here. The recap is so long, just like with last year’s “On The Head of A Pin,”I’m breaking it into two parts. Except this one has WAY more screencaps. The faces in this episode were too…
