“First Born” is a powerhouse of an episode, showing off Robbie Thompson’s narrative skills and fuelled by compelling performances from both the regular and guest cast. Not only does the episode tell its own story beautifully, it weaves together strands from previous seasons to illustrate the overall arc for this one. Free will is the…
Yesterday the ratings were released for Tuesday’s episode, “First Born” and they were extraordinarily good. They were up over the prior week, and overall viewership was the highest since 2010 for ANY episode. However, it came with a caveat. Seems that The CW in Baltimore, Norfolk, and Richmond pre-empted the shows for basketball. They make…
Before we get started, I have to say that I am worried sick about the staggering turn of events that took place in Supernatural’s “First Born”! I have been reading as many of your comments as possible, and it seems the entire Supernatural fandom got either chest, head or stomach pains watching Dean take the…
1863 – Jasper Springs, MS – Demons insist that the knight must be protected. A bunch of demons are killed by Cain; pink light fills the cabin. Crowley shows up on a bar stool beside Dean and tells him they must go after the First Blade, which can kill Abaddon–and a weapon John Winchester once…
I think we would all agree that Supernatural is best when Sam and Dean are hunting side by side. It just is. But episodes like this make me really appreciate just how awesome they each are on their own too. This episode was so much fun because it gave Sam and Dean room to shine…
Warning: If you have not seen tonight’s episode, “First Born,” then beware spoilers ahead! Summary: The episode opens with a pretty badass sequence of Timothy Omundson as Cain, kicking some demonic Confederate soldiers. Did I mention he’s badass?
This episode looks like it could be fun with the paring of Dean and Crowley and Sam and Castiel. However it also looks like it could get pretty intense. Something that goes well with Bingo. Enjoy the episode and good luck!
Setting aside my overwhelming emotional reaction to the brilliant acting, storytelling and production that resulted in “Road Trip” for just a few minutes, let’s put our heads together and analyze how the episode contributed to the myth arc and plot threads of season nine!
Hi, I’m Percysowner and Alice is allowing me to drive the bus for this week’s Spoiler/Spec article. Abandon being spoiled all ye who enter here!! Previously: • Dean gives Kevin a hunter’s funeral • Dean connects with Cas and tells him that Dean is going to kill Gadreel, Cas reminds Dean that killing Gadreel means…
The first half of season nine explored Castiel’s experience as the new Adam, the fall of angels from Heaven, and the aftermath of the Trials—particularly that of Dean allowing Gadreel to possess his brother, Sam. We watched each of these stories reflect or weave around a particular center—the Garden of Eden and the Fall of…
The Winchester Family Business has had a bit of a flood of reviews lately so I’m going to try a little something new. Remixes of the episode which will hopefully be entertaining at least, funny at best in the spirit of classic abridges like DBZ and Yu Gi Oh. I, of course, recommend the SPN…
Dear Jensen and Jared, There is so much to say about “Road Trip”. We asked the writers for “feels” and they delivered big time!! It is really hard to know where to start. This wonderful hour of unparalleled story telling included stunning plot twists and outstanding acting. Andrew Dabb scripted a brilliant study of emotions…
