Thoughts on 8×05 – Blood Brother This episode was by and large a relaxing, time filler type episode – it allowed everyone to take a breath, process what we know and laid some ground work for the coming weeks. And I enjoyed it. Like some earlier episodes such Home or Provenance, it was a…
I feel I should part with a nasty secret. I always get performance anxiety when I do a review of a Ben Edlund episode…will I be able to do the episode justice? Will I only miss a little of the imagery I wanted to talk about?
I have a confession,I’m as much a fan of Ben Edlund as I am anyone else associated with this show. This is not to say I have pictures of him around my room, I don’t,but I’m not adverse to the idea. Would I like to meet him? Yes. Have a photo with him? Yes. Spend…
Oh man, am I ever riding a “Supernatural” high! I spent this last weekend at Chicon and was totally immersed in all things “Supernatural”. Hopefully it didn’t have an effect on my perception of this episode because I loved it. (Don’t mind me while I bury the lede.) I think Ben Edlund is a genius…
Supernatural has often drawn parallels between monsters, their victims, and the Winchester brothers, and I’ve always enjoyed episodes where the case of the week played directly into the psychology of the brothers. I thought this episode accomplished that goal with subtlety, avoiding anvil-dropping. And while the clues to Sam’s solo year are coming with agonizing…
A human, angel, and vampire walk into a bar…tell me if you’ve heard this one. Sorry, its an Edlund script. Might as well start with a joke. Fine, “Blood Brother” was one of his heavier scripts, but it goes to prove you’re never sure what you’re gonna get from Ben except a well written story. …
This has been one crazy week with going to Chicago, and being at another amazing ChiCon and then getting stuck in Chicago for two extra days because of Hurricane Sandy… So here I am getting my Supernatural review up late. I will be writing up a little something about my ChiCon experience, too…Which hopefully will…
Thoughts on Bitten When I first saw the promo and heard the premise of this episode, I was skeptical. After it aired and I had yet to watch it, I became more skeptical after catching wind of the very split reactions this episode seemed to garner. Though I make a point to not read others…
I came in to this episode with average expectations. From what I saw in the preview it seemed like it would be a fun, filler episode in the typical monster of the week format. Someone dies, Sam and Dean take the case, find the monster and kill it. I like this format a lot. In…
As a Supernatural fan, the past two seasons haven’t been very kind. Speaking only for myself, my patience has been through a grueling test. Come the end of the seventh season, it had just about run out. I know that long running shows evolve, they aren’t going to be the same, but for some reason…
Thoughts on “Supernatural” 8.03 – “Heartache” Well, so far so good. For this viewer at least, season eight is three for three so far. This episode had a different MOTW storyline, good pacing, great writing and some absolutely beautiful filming. Additionally this episode showcased some brother moments that demonstrated character maturity and change without breaking…
