I’m mixing it up this week. After going through all the goodness of “Slash Fiction,” I realized that a mere review could not do it justice. Not by a long shot. So I’ve decided to dust off my mad recapping skills and pour through this one bit by bit. There’s so much to comment on!…
For a new writer to the show, Robbie Thompson seemed like an old pro. His episode, “Slash Fiction” reads as a love letter. It touches on so many things. Its self reflexive nature makes fans notice all the shout outs to previous episodes, while giving us more on the big bad of the season. If…
After last week’s fun but fluffy episode I was happy to see the Winchester’s back in action. I was also glad to see some exciting mytharc development. I’ve mentioned before that I’m interested in the idea of the Winchesters as the hunted rather than the hunters. But it was nice to see Sam and Dean…
Slash Fiction Season 7 Episode 6 Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Now ,“ Sam and Dean enter a bank, looking very unsure of themselves. “Are you sure about this?” asks Sam. “Trust me,” says Dean. They separate, Dean heading over to an attractive brunette teller. “Good morning, Megan,” he says, reading her name tag, “that’s…
High hopes were had for this episode and I have to say that it did not disappoint. Slash Fiction was fast paced, funny, action-fill and informative all at the same time. This was a solid episode and it felt like the plot was substantially advanced by the end. The players are on the board, we…
Now that’s more like it! After three weeks of mediocre, and often times quite troubling episodes, this is exactly what we needed. If you haven’t seen “Slash Fiction” here’s your warning now. I am about to discuss things that happened in the episode and all the glorious possibilities it sets up.
Double Winchesters? You’re gonna need multiple bingo cards! There’s five to choose from. All answers are speculative and don’t contain any foreknowledge of what’s happening. Remember to yell Bingo if you win! Here’s the .pdf attachment so you can print these out and have them right in front of you come showtime. Supernatural…
In the aptly titled “Slash Fiction,” this week the leviathans are back in full force. No more Mr. Nice Dean and Sam. This Friday the Winchesters come face-to-face with the evil versions of themselves when two Leviathans clone the boys and go on a killing spree. Yes, Dean and Sam will soon have to take…
(I promise, not a lot of negativity here.) I actually find the serviceable, average episode to be the hardest to write reviews for. There really isn’t much to say. It didn’t suck. It wasn’t “Bugs” (that was my Twitter review for the week). I laughed a few times. I scratched my head a few…
Metaphors and parallels have run through Supernatural throughout its existence. The episode “Scarecrow” is a metaphor about the so-called apple pie life and how it isn’t everything as it’s cracked up to be. “Heart” and “Metamorphosis” are metaphors for Sam’s growing destiny. Castiel’s season 6 trajectory parallels Sam in season 4. Dean’s attempt to live…
“Shut Up, Dr. Phil” Season 7, Episode 5 Robin’s Rambles In a high-class salon, a woman, speaking on her cell, urges her friend to sell her house to spite her husband”–“I’ll have the papers ready tomorrow. . .yay, I’m proud of you!” She hands her phone to the guy who just put a plastic…
How are we at episode five already? Has it really been five weeks since we began the SEVENTH season of Supernatural? Sorry, but I still have to marvel at the fact we’re in the seventh season already. Seems like just yesterday blonde women in nighties were burning on ceilings. But, I digress. What did we…
