The past few weeks have been a whirlwind for me. Season finales, my daughter graduating, going on a big vacation, so yeah, I kind of completely ignored when the TV Fanatic Roundtable for the finale was released. My really bad too, because we had a TON to discuss. Alice JesterAlice Jester is the founder, editor-in-chief,…
It’s that time of year again. The “Supernatural” season finale has ended, the dust has settled, and we are on the early side of a long ass hellatus with another set of 23 episodes in the can. What do you do? Rank ‘em in five minutes of course! Alice JesterAlice Jester is the founder,…

Alpha and Omega. I can’t think of a more perfect name for this episode. We got two ends of the spectrum. On one side, it was an entertaining, emotional, strangely optimistic episode that promoted all the things we love about this show; family bonding, all creatures of the universe (including reapers) coming together to save…
There were very few happy reviewers at this week’s TV Fanatic Roundtable. Myself, Nightsky, and Christine Laskodi and Sean McKenna from TV Fanatic all thought that the God and Lucifer therapy session fell flat; and contemplated if Lucifer was killed, why did The Darkness overpower God (it still makes no sense to me); and will…
Back in the summer of 2010 I remember a long conversation I had with a fan at an SPN convention two months after “Swan Song” aired. For those that weren’t deep into the fandom at the time, that was a very polarizing episode. While I gave it a glowing review and called it one of…
This week, um well, you’ll see a lot of agreement I guess. There were parts myself, Nightsky, and Christine Laskodi and Sean McKenna of TV Fanatic loved, like Dean’s questioning Chuck/God, and we all seemed to like new prophet Donatello. But we still had questions. What about Metatron? Was he truly surprised that his spell…
As probably expected, my review of episode 11.21, “All in the Family” is less glowing than that of my counterpart, Nightsky. There are two ways to view “All In The Family.” You can turn your mind off and go with what you were given, or you can go in with thematic expectations, given the title…
Oh yes, there was so much to talk about in this week’s roundtable at TV Fanatic. After all, when you get a reveal that was six seasons in the making, it’s a lot to absorb in one week. It wasn’t all about Chuck though, we also talked about Metatron and his chance at redemption as…
Eric Kripke and Robbie Thompson get together in a bar and…tell me if you’ve heard this one before. Oh my, my, “Don’t Call Me Shurley” really went in a ballsy direction, didn’t it? I’m personally stunned. No doubt this is a polarizing episode because it basically listened to six years of non-stop fan complaints and…
Well, it was bound to happen. Thanks to law of averages, we knew we would actually get to discuss a happy ending for once (not that kind of happy ending!). Myself, Nightsky, and Christine Laskodi and Sean McKenna of TV Fanatic pondered the idea of hunters actually retiring and living happy, and wondered if that…
