Gail’s First Impressions of The Winchesters Pilot
I want to share my thoughts and reactions to The Winchester’s first episode. In a nutshell—I liked it. This isn’t a review or a recap as much as it is my impressions, which were very favorable.
Wrangling Walker: Season 3 Episode 1 “World on a String”
Wow! What a great season opener. If the rest of Season 3 is like this, it will be worth some growing pains in the earlier seasons. World on a String had a great mix of crime drama vs. family drama, lots of tension, and some well-crafted character building without forced errors or non sequiturs to…
Wrangling Walker Season 2 Episode 20 “Something’s Missing”
“Something’s Missing” provided a solid finale for Walker‘s season 2 and lots of drama and questions for the start of season 3. It tied up some loose ends, created others, and promises that the next season will start off with a bang. Once again, I’m going to skip the recap and talk about what I…
Wrangling Walker Season 2 Episode 19 “A Matter of Miles”
Well—that was exciting! And Gale Davidson is evil, just getting that out there ahead of things. Evil. Okay, now that’s off my chest, let me cover what I liked and what didn’t set well with me. On the whole, I thought it was a good episode, so there’s a lot more of the ‘likes’ than…
Wrangling Walker: Season 2 Episode 18 “Search and Rescue”
Once again, we had an action-packed script with some twists and turns. I’ll skip the recap and go right to what I really liked (a lot) and what gave me pause (a few things). What I Liked We started with a time jump to seeing Colton hurt, a script trick to tease us with action…
Wrangling Walker: Season 2 Episode 17 “Torn”
They covered a lot of ground in this episode, with the emphasis on interpersonal issues (although we did get one very enjoyable fight scene). The title ‘Torn’ is certainly apt! I think of this kind of episode as a ‘repositioning’ segment, where the writers move the characters around like pieces on a game board to…
Wrangling Walker Season 2 Episode 16 “Champagne Problems”
We had a lot of joy in this episode—long overdue—as well as some problems from the past and character insights. I’m going to skip the recap and just cover what I liked—and what made me gnash my teeth. The Good Stuff Bonham and Abeline are so sweet! It’s rare and wonderful to see a mature…
Wrangling Walker Season 2 Episode 15 “Bygones”
Another really good episode, with only a couple of things that made me scratch my head. When the Walker writing team decides to kick it in the ass, they do a fine job! I’m going to skip a recap and just focus on what I liked and the stuff that pulled me out of the story.
Wrangling Walker Season 2 Episode 14 “No Such Thing as Fair Play”
Now that was a great episode! Tight plot, lots of action, plenty of close-ups, some twists and turns, stellar performance from the cast (as usual) and Jensen Ackles directing! There was a lot to love about this episode. And a couple of things that sat wrong with me. So I’ll skip doing the recap, and…
Wrangling Walker: Season 2 Episode 13, “One Good Thing”
Lots of twists and turns in this episode—that’s for sure! Once again I’m going to skip the recap and just dive into the stuff I really liked, and the parts that had me scratching my head.
Wrangling Walker Season 2 Episode 12 (2.12) “Common Ground”
I have so many questions….do you? Like last time, I’m going to skip the recap and go right into what I liked, then cover what made me go, ‘Hmmmm….’ The Good Stuff Cordell Walker on a horse. Definitely a highlight of the episode.
Wrangling Walker Season 2 Episode 11 (2.11) “Boundaries”
“Boundaries” was well-named, as the characters dealt a lot with personal, professional, and tangible lines. Plenty of action and surprises, and some interesting changes for several characters. I have a lot of opinions, so this week I’m going to skip the recap to keep the length down, and go straight to reactions. If you need…
