GenV Season 1 Episode 1 “God U” AKA The New Kids on the Block GenV is a new series from Eric Kripke, creator of The Boys, so you can expect lots of coarse language, titillation, and shock value. GenV is centered around Godolkin University, a college for superheroes. Our main characters are college-age superheroes, so…
I sat down for the rewatch of “Good Intentions” with the hubby and we were in agreement about one thing, we had never seen this episode before. I knew there were 2 or 3 episodes in season thirteen I’d never watched and it became obvious we stumbled upon one. I find that this is a…
“Various & Sundry Villains” was certainly a mixed bag. On one side, there’s a MOTW story, witches, that really falls flat. This could be just me, but Supernatural has rarely done well with witch plots, especially when they are villains. Then there’s the disastrous B plot, which was necessary but NOT fun to watch. But…
Wow, I’ve got to admit, that was one of the more surprising rewatches. I don’t remember a lot about “The Bad Place.” Perhaps it didn’t stand out because it was the setup to the most disappointing “Wayward Sisters.” But once I dug in, this episode was actually good. It gave “Wayward Sisters” all the momentum…
There we go!! Soooo much better. When you’re bogged down in the mythos, and it’s early in the season, a light hearted yet engaging action adventure where Sam and Dean get to be heroes for once is exactly what the doctor ordered. Luckily, writer Meredith Glynn knew exactly what we needed. “The Scorpion…
Aw nuts. I don’t get it. Where does any writer think, “This season has been very even keeled in it’s storytelling. Let’s blow it all apart with a kitchen sink episode! The fans will love it!” Yeah, right. I went into “The War of the Worlds” with fresh eyes since I couldn’t remember a…
Eh, okay. I’m not sure what they were going for with “Tombstone,” but it didn’t work. Actually, that will be the mantra for this review. Did…not…work. It’s a shame too, since the previous two episodes were so strong and season thirteen was starting to find it’s footing. Sadly, this one crashed and burned to the…
Before doing my re-watch of “Advanced Thanatology,” I watched “The Big Empty” first (I skipped “Patience” because rereading my scathing review brought back all sorts of memories). I realized watching both these episodes together are a must. They pair perfectly in their themes about grief and loss and they’re both written by two junior writers…
Well…okay. Look, for a typical Brad and Eugenie outing, “The Rising Son” could have been bad. Instead I give it a “borderline mediocre.” It was not an enthralling outing for sure, but some things did happen to move the story along, so it wasn’t a total waste of my hour. Some things happened though that…
Here we go, another look at Supernatural Season 13! For me, this is actually kind of a first look. At the time, my father died just before the premiere and I do confess season 13 is a bit of a blur as I handled family issues most of the season. Sure, I stuck around for…
I sat down and did the rewatch of “Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell” knowing that I didn’t remember a darned thing about the episode. After watching it, I’m not sure I ever watched it the first time! I know there were a couple on my “never watched” list so maybe this was one of them? …
I remember why I didn’t do a review initially for “Celebrating the Life of Asa Fox.” I was pretty damned disappointed. Everyone else on the staff loved it for reasons I still can’t figure out, so I let them have their joy. By this time season 12 was such a damned disappointment to me and…
