As you all may have noticed, I tend to post articles from guest contributors for the site. Only elle2 though has ever been deemed an official “Winchester Family Business writer.” It’s taken me long enough, but I’m so lucky to get so many great articles from these people that recognition is due. I’m giving the “staff writer” title to five…
You know, I had it all planned. I was going to use my bitching javascript programming skills to tweak some canned module out there that had a trivia quiz application. I was going to do this fancy interface using multiple choice and giving correct answers instantly as well as keeping score. Guess what? Yeah, still in the planning…
It’s been a while since I’ve updated everyone on Lindsay and Heather of Support Supernatural and their fundraising efforts for A Dog’s Life Rescue in Los Angeles. Even though the first campaign ended in September, they’ve continued since then raise money as the needs for this animal rescue have grown urgent. Support Supernatural has recently started auctioning off new items…
This is the part where I still get to feel like the luckiest person alive. Sera Gamble, Executive Producer for Supernatural, was again kind enough to answer some burning questions that surfaced during the first half of this apocalyptic fifth season. Considering the lengthy list I sent her, which included a lot of my own tough…
Okay everyone, have those boxes of Kleenexes handy? Good, because as far as tear-jerkers go, this is the gold standard. A limo pulls up under an overpass. An older man with a tin box and a shovel gets out, but not before he steps in a puddle. I have no idea if that was a…
Yes, it’s that time again. Time where I’m pouring through the Inbox, and have lots of little things to share that amount to something possibly interesting when all put together. Considering its still a holiday weekend here in the US, you like the title? Anyway, first big announcement. On Monday, I’ll be posting an exclusive…
It’s Thanksgiving Day here in the US. I’m sure several of you are thinking, “There’s no way Alice would stoop to something so lame as doing an ‘I’m thankful for’ article.’ So overdone!” Yeah, well this is the mark of a desperate and totally stuffed woman who had to do something themed for the day. So…
After recapping “Changing Channels,” anything is easy. This one wasn’t half bad, once I got around to it. Blame Chicago. So let’s go through “The Real Ghostbusters.’ ANY episode that starts with a racing Impala wins with me. Especially when Dean is driving. This episode if judged alone on opener and closer would get an…
Well look who went and got motivated yesterday. I had the chance to type up some thoughts and get it out to blogcritics pretty quickly. It was just published this morning so you can find it here: https://web.archive.org/web/20150329052811/http://blogcritics.org/tv-review-supernatural-abandon-all-hope/ (Reposting here since it has disappeared from the site): Abandon all hope. I suppose that’s a given…
We’re in for a doozy folks. It’s another Ben Edlund epic and the one that takes us into the 8 week Winter “Hellatus.” So, do you think they’re gonna hold back? I hope not. I’m already prepping my loudest “Damn You Kripke!” yet. So, be here at 10:00 ish (or for you International folks, after…
Whew, I’m still tired! Wow, wow, wow, what a great but exhausting weekend. I came back from Chicago on Monday with my head in the clouds. I went there again with no expectations and came back with plenty of pleasant surprises. In the tizzy that came trying to transcribe panels to get as much information out as possible,…
For those that missed part one, it can be found here: https://www.thewinchesterfamilybusiness.com/article-list/33-con-reports/3791-jared-and-jensen-panel-chicago-con-part-one.html Before I go onto part two, I can honestly say I’ve done of ton of these detailed recaps of panels and events. Heck, I did 26 of them from Comic con. However, I have never, ever run into someone harder to recap than Jared Padalecki. …
