Yes, this review has been a bitch to write. After all, so much was packed into this mere 42 minutes. When “The Born-Again Identity” finished at 9:58 on Friday evening, I do admit to being shell shocked. Oh sure, I loved the episode, but my mind since then has been trying to process so many…
“Good morning, Vietnam!” The recap takes us straight into the episode, thrusting Sam into the after effects of his sacrifice in “Repo Man.” He is running, plagued by his hallucinations of Lucifer, and has not slept in days. Those he encounters are unsympathetic and chase him away. As he stumbles, Sam bumps into a man,…
How do I even begin? This episode was all kinds of awesome. The story was exciting and engaging, we got some demon action (it’s been a long time), the stakes were high, and we got to see Lucifer, Meg, and best of all, Castiel. And if that weren’t enough, this episode set up an unexpected…
Review: 7.17 “The Born-Again Identity” – by sweetondean “We didn’t part friends Dean.” “So what?” I’m going to start off shallow and just get this out of the way. I found it very difficult to concentrate during Sam’s hospital scenes. There. I said it. Jared was really working that whole floppy hair, scruffy,…
Honestly, I’m not quite sure where to begin with this one. I just finished the episode and many emotions and thoughts are running around at full speed. This episode was brilliantly conceived and beautifully executed. Any faults that there have been with season seven have nearly been corrected by this one 42-minute installment. Let’s see…
This has been a pretty exciting week for the “Supernatural” fandom. The big episode marking Misha’s return is finally upon us (meaning lots of media coverage), and then we get the blessed news that the Padababy has arrived (welcome Thomas Colton!). It’s never been a greater time to be a fan. Unfortunately, happy fan in…
Dean wondered in “Repo Man” when they would arrive on a case and end up running into some “big mouths.” Well, here it is. The case starts off simple. A ballerina dances herself to death, and the brothers pick up on it in a news story. They arrive in town and discover that it…
“Supernatural” made a solid return this week with Out with the Old. It was a wonderful mix of monster of the week, advancement of the Leviathan arc (about time!) and some real attention to Sam’s Lucifer infestation. On top of all the obvious awesomeness that was this episode, there was also one of the most…
Review “Supernatural” episode 7.16 “Out With The Old” By sweetondean Warning: contains spoilers. “You see a Winchester, you don’t eat him! You tell me and I eat him!“ On first viewing I wasn’t sure what to make of “Out With The Old.” Admittedly I had a bit of a bad run with the watching. I…
Originally I was going to wait and write this review later in the week (for a number of reasons including exam induced study-recluse status which I only come out of for Supernatural) but after that episode, I felt too inspired to let it lie, even for a couple days. Right off the bat I’m going…
Where to even begin with this one? I’m sure what I say will have already been said in the other wonderful reviews (which I haven’t read yet). This episode was a powerful one, with a wonderfully dark air about it that landed somewhere as a beautiful cross between Criminal Minds and Supernatural. So, without further…
I don’t know about the rest of you but for me Repo Man was a breath of fresh air. I’ve loved the last few standalone episodes but I have definitely been craving a little more substance as well. I’ve always been a big fan of the larger story arch format that Supernatural has taken on…
