This Week In Supernatural History – Week 16
This Week in Supernatural History – Episode Sixteen





RIP, Rufus.
RIP, Rufus.
Some of you might know that I enjoy watching a Winchester bleed, preferably while another family member is nearby. Now, I don’t consider myself a particularly violent person. In real life the sight of another person in pain isn’t something I relish. I avoid confrontation, run away from fights, and abhor bullies. Most of my…
With just two episodes remaining this season, time is running out for Dean and Sam to stop Roman and his Leviathan army from devouring the world. And if the title is any indication, it won’t be easy! Good thing Bobby’s there to help… or is it? Share on FacebookTweetFollow usSave
Okay, system issues done. So what did you think? Just a word about the episode title. “Free To Be You And Me” was a best selling childrens album from the 1970’s and a cult classic for any child of that era. What did that have to do with tonight’s saga? No idea. I’ll try to…
Welcome back to the “Memorable Moments” series for Supernatural season 12! Once again I have put together a photographic recap of what I felt were the best and most memorable moments from the show. This week I’m featuring 12.08 “Lotus”! The “Best” categories vary from episode to episode depending on what has transpired. I hope…
Yes, Top Ten Villains/Baddies/Nasties starts tomorrow. I promise! In the meantime, Bethany was kind enough to let me repost a wonderful list she put on her livejournal of the ten episodes a new fan should see to get familiar with the show. I admire her ability to pick just ten! As usual with guest posters, do…
When I checked back in to my visual review for “The Third Man,” I noticed that there was some debate on there about Sam’s car, his Charger. I made some very negative comments about it: in fact, I called it “stupid” and crowed “ding dong, the witch is dead” when it got crushed. Some people…
1.16 – Oh, John.
2.16 – Oh, strange ghost whose name I can’t remember. Molly! Oh, Molly.
3.16 – Oh, Dean.
4.16 – Oh, Dean.
5.16 – Oh, Dean (I’m sensing a common theme here)
6.16 – Oh, Rufus.
Wow, all the 16’s have been real tearjerkers and, for the most part, full of loss. John gone again, Dean gone, Dean’s faith gone, Dean’s hope gone, Rufus gone. Even the way Molly went out left me with a bit of a pang.
Best out of that bunch, ummmmm ‘On the Head of a Pin’. Yeah, it was great to see John (and the ensuing hugs) in 1.16 and the brutality of Dean’s death in 3.16 (obviously that wasn’t ‘great’ but you know what I mean). I wasn’t overly keen on 5.16 but I liked 6.16. 4.16 though, that episode was a shocker from start to finish.
Thanks Elle.
Ahh…Shadow. My all time favourite episode of Supernatural. Daddy Winchester! Meg! So much angst! The boys’ reunion with their dad and then the all too soon parting ripped my heart to shreds. When John hugged Dean I was silently yelling HUG SAM! HUG SAMMY TOO!!! at my telly. And then he did. And Sam was all teary, Dean was all teary, John was all teary and I was just a teary, happy mess. 😆 And then John left and I was an unhappy teary mess. Sam unwilling to let his dad go, then him staring after his dad’s truck, Dean so quiet, resigned and sad…ack…my poor broken heart. Ahem, I’ll shut up now. In short, I love every single second of this episode.
2.16 – Haven’t re-watchd this in ages but I remember liking this episode a lot.
3.16 – Oh God. This episode was painful. I loved it but, oh, it hurt so much. Sam’s tears. Dean’s demise. ‘Remember what Dad taught you….remember what I taught you’. ‘Bon Jovi rocks…on occasion’. Fabulous. In an agonizingly painful way.
4.16 – I wasn’t so fussed on 4.16 ( not a fan of the angels/angel storylines) although my heart ached for Dean and I loved Sam’s ‘Miracle! NOW!’
5.16 – I didn’t like this episode.
6.16 – I enjoyed this one a lot although I wish they hadn’t killed off Rufus. 🙁
Thanks Elle.
Elle, does episode 16 mean ‘grab the tissues’?
Damn, we lost Dean, the amulet, and Rufus. 🙁
I didn’t like ‘Roadkill’.
Anyway, that brings us to the end of season three.
Damn.
Shadow: Loved it. Meg was awesome as a big bad, and exceptionally good in this one. Loved the daeva’s — that’s the name, isn’t it?
No Rest for the Wicked: They did it! They actually Dean to Hell, but not before the boys sang Dead or Alive. Awesome. The whole fandom was abuzz all summer.
I loved Roadkill, and I really liked the actress who played Molly. It was the beginning of Dean learning the difference between hunting every monster and hunting evil. And, I like DickDean. Remember, they played Bad Moon Rising in this one, too.
On the Head of a Pin: Powerful, powerful episode.
Dark Side of the Moon: Right at the top of my list.
Death’s Door: RIP Rufus. I’m still ticked off about killing Rufus off. I loved that character. (Yes, I hold grudges.) Not enough Winchesters, but a good episode.
Out with the Old: Doesn’t even begin to compare, IMO.
Hi Elle
Wow! I loved all these episodes.
They all tugged at my heart at some point or another. 😥
