Tis the season for reflections and looking back and with that in mind, I sat down to do a look at season seven of Supernatural so far. Over all, I love season seven in spite of a few glaring problems that I’ll touch on below. Mostly though, the great moments outweigh the few bad things…
Sam: You want some coffee with that? Dean: It’s six pm somewhere. Sam: We’ve got to hit the road. I mean how are we supposed to get Cass to that lab by freaking 3:59 am? Dean: We don’t. Sam: What do you mean we don’t? Dean: I mean we can’t bring the horse to water,…
Here we go, part two, aka what little bit happened in each episode of season seven that got me smiling? There are ten of them, one to go with each episode. For those that missed part one, aka the last half of season six, that can be found here: www.thewinchesterfamilybusiness.com/article-list/episode-related/16696-supernatural-moments-in-2011-that-make-me-smile.html As a reminder, these…
“The shot heard around the world”. Historians hear the phrase and inevitably point to the bullet which killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914, and triggered the start of World War One. Or, they start singing Ralph Waldo Emerson’s 1837 Concord Hymn, about the start of the American Revolution. “Here once the embattled farmers stood, And…
Truth be told, I avoided writing this review for several days. It’s been too tough. There’s so much pain, so much heartbreak, and it’s so hard to see a character I’ve gotten to know and love through these years meet such an end, whether it be final or not. I needed time to grieve, to…
Fighting That Step into Chaos No, I’m not going to be ok without Bobby. Yes, he has done enough but I don’t care, I need Bobby. This came as a rather surprising revelation. I hadn’t known how much he meant, how much he means. I have been away from fandom for a while….
Since I watched this episode two days ago Bobby’s life has been playing on repeat in the back of my mind. And all I can hear is the ticking of the reaper’s watch as the episode cut to black. I may very well be driven mad by the time the winter hellatus is over. What…
Sera Gamble can write a brilliant episode and she did with this one. Unfortunately, Sera also kills the characters off and she did that here too. There was a movie in 1977 called A Bridge Too Far which was an adaptation of the novel by the same name; it was about a World War II…
“Death’s Door” Season 7, Episode 10 Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel We get a view of the inside of Bobby’s head wound from the inside out, bullet and all. While Sam frantically checks Bobby’s vitals in the back seat, Dean drives as fast as he can. “Is he dead?” demands Dean. “JUST DRIVE, DEAN!” shouts…
No doubt about it, episode ten has historically packed one heck of an emotional punch and this one is not breaking that pattern. Death’s Door was nothing short of perfect. I’ve broken the two coinciding streams of this episode apart and examined them as whole pieces, rather than intercut with one another, so bear with…
Warning!!!!!!!!! If you haven’t seen tonight’s episode of “Supernatural,” stop reading now! There will be spoilers and discussion and all sorts of venting, so do yourself a favor and wait till after the episode to continue. You have been warned!
Box of tissues ready? Playing Bingo might be a little hard this week. It’s not looking very good for Bobby. It’s my suggestion to print a few extra copies just in case your tears end up smearing the print. The game might even have to be saved for the rewatch, especially if “Bobby dies”…
