Alice’s Re-Review: Supernatural 9.05 – “Dog Dean Afternoon”

Alice’s Re-Review: Supernatural 9.05 – “Dog Dean Afternoon”

Something fun happened while going through our recent conversion here at the WFB.  I’ve had to do a lot of archive cleanup and what do you know, I found some season nine reviews that I actually did.  One of those just happened to be “Dog Dean Afternoon.”  So, was it a good review?  Not really. …

Reviews That I Missed:  Supernatural 9.04 – “Slumber Party”

Reviews That I Missed: Supernatural 9.04 – “Slumber Party”

“Slumber Party” is an odd duck for me.  I don’t think it’s a bad episode.  It’s well constructed, tells a unique story, and doesn’t have me shouting out “WTF???” on continuity or plotting.  The issue I have with it is that I’m not a huge fantasy fan.  I get it, Charlie is from a different…

Reviews That I Missed: Supernatural 9.03 – I’m No Angel

In my rewatch of “I’m No Angel,” I was pleasantly surprised…for the first two thirds of it.  This wasn’t a half bad story and was strangely fluid.  Then the wheels completely fell off the wagon and it ended a complete travesty.  All the right ideas were in place, but this time they got a good…

Reviews That I Missed: Supernatural 9.02 – Devil May Care

Ugh.  You know, I went into this rewatch with an open mind.  After all, I vaguely remembered Abaddon being a real bad ass, a wicked Ezekiel reveal, and some crap with Crowley.  After revisiting, it’s all quite a downer.   Still, “Devil May Care” wasn’t a total loss.  Why don’t I do a “Good, Bad,…

Reviews That I Missed: Supernatural 9.01 – “I Think I’m Gonna Like it Here”

Before I get started, I should give a disclaimer.  I hated season nine.  Granted I watched most of the episodes only once, and it’s been a while since I’ve revisited, but this was the season that really started my discontent with Supernatural.  In going back and reviewing the multiple number of episodes I didn’t review…

Walker Roundup Season Three Episode Seventeen “It Writes Itself”

Walker “It Writes Itself,” 3.17 is the penultimate episode of the season, and it finally explains the tagline for Season 3, “Surrender to Yourself.” It represents the idea of stop fighting yourself, your memories, what you want, and face what’s bothering you, even if it’s scary. Though all the people do this to different degrees,…

Wrangling Walker: Season Three Episode Seventeen, “It Writes Itself”

We’re coming down to the end of Season 3, and this episode seems focused on second chances. Just when we think it’s safe to turn our attention to friends and family, there’s the definite clue that some group still has it in for the Walkers and their friends. I’m going to leave the detailed recap…

Walker Roundup Season Three Episode Sixteen “Daddy Was a Bank Robber”

Walker Roundup Season Three Episode Sixteen “Daddy Was a Bank Robber”

“Daddy Was a Bank Robber” is such a great title for Walker 3.16, where everyone is introduced to Sadie, Hoyt’s daughter. A strong theme this season is how the past affects the present. This episode deals with working through that past for a better future. Some have already done the work, others are still in…

Wrangling Walker: Season Three Episode Sixteen “Daddy was a Bank Robber”

After several case-focused episodes, catching up with family drama was inevitable. This week’s episode did a good job of providing insight into how the characters were dealing with recent events—and added a surprise. I’ll skip the recap and go straight to what I liked best and what made me scratch my head.
