Far Away Eyes’ Review: “Supernatural” 10.1 “Black”

Far Away Eyes’ Review: “Supernatural” 10.1 “Black”

Marked by cataclysmic upheaval, Supernatural season nine culminated in massive earthquakes. Each one has reshaped the landscape forever. We saw it in the finale on every level—and now we’re seeing its aftershocks in the season ten opener. As the earthquakes reverberate from the center, we see them ripple through each and every character on Supernatural….

Supernatural VanCon: “M” Day! Part 2 – Misha!

Supernatural VanCon: “M” Day! Part 2 – Misha!

Part 1 of my report on “M” day (aka Saturday) at the Vancouver Supernatural convention featured the indomitable Mark Sheppard, plus Tahmoh Penikett, Matt Cohen and the myriad of other guests who had shared Friday’s fun with us. Saturday afternoon’s fun began with a splash, watching Gil McKinney and Matt Cohen get wet for the…

WFB Roundtable Interview With Misha Collins, San Diego Comic Con 2014

WFB Roundtable Interview With Misha Collins, San Diego Comic Con 2014

Misha was our last interview of the day.  Honestly, we were lucky we got five minutes with him considering our previous interview, Jared, was cut short at three minutes.  Misha was pleasant as always, and managed to maintain that dry humor we all know and love.  Warning, there are some spoilers for season ten, but…

“Do You Believe in Miracles” – A Week Later

“Do You Believe in Miracles” – A Week Later

I don’t usually write reviews. I choose instead to analyze plot intricacies as they are presented in each episode. I like watching storylines unfold, week after week, finding clues and embedded themes. I like discovering the subtleties of writing that characterize and underscore so much of Supernatural’s success. Yet it has been a full week…

Far Away Eyes’ Review: “Supernatural” 9.23- “Do You Believe In Miracles?”

Far Away Eyes’ Review: “Supernatural” 9.23- “Do You Believe In Miracles?”

The second half of season nine introduced two formidable weapons. Each one had its strengths, weaknesses, and consequences. Each were taken up by their respective characters as a means to an end—to fill in the “I did what I had to do” piece of the over all season puzzle. These weapons shaped not only the…

Supernatural University:  Meta Fiction – You Decide

Supernatural University: Meta Fiction – You Decide

I loved all the aspects of Meta Fiction, including the meta ones. Robbie Thompson’s script was a profound brain teaser; Jensen Ackles’ depiction of Dean’s struggle with the effects of the Mark of Cain was masterfully subtle; Jared Padalecki brought Sam’s worry over his brother and his rage at Gadreel and Metatron into his every…

Far Away Eyes’ Review: “Supernatural” 9.18- “Meta Fiction”

When I was a little girl, I couldn’t wait for bedtime—okay most of the time. No, it wasn’t because I wanted to go to sleep. It was because I knew that before that happened I’d have a bedtime story read to me by my dad. It was our bonding time—and it’s where I encountered my…

Gerry’s Supernatural Review: “Mother’s Little Helper” – Be Careful What You Wish For

Gerry’s Supernatural Review: “Mother’s Little Helper” – Be Careful What You Wish For

A busy work schedule has made me late to the reviewing game for Supernatural’s “Mother’s Little Helper,” but I have to squeak a review in under the wire, because Adam Glass’s episode played with so many important themes. Misha Collins also made his debut as a Supernatural director, making great use of light and shadow…
