It’s that time again! I can’t believe that season 8 is over. It was such a fun ride so let’s re-live it through the episode titles. If you’re not familiar with this article series I go through the season episode by episode and find the pop culture references behind the titles. I’m always surprised by…
8.23 Sacrifice: It Was Always God’s Intention, The Ultimate Sacrifice Metatron’s Heaven: Exile angels for revenge. Closing Hell is death.

I just love it when someone puts together statistics like this. Josef Adalian and Marisa Woocher at Vulture published a really interesting study, and cool color chart, ranking returning TV shows for the 2012-2013 season by percentage change in the 18-49 demo. I was more than thrilled to see my beloved Supernatural topping the chart!…

See what myself, Sean McKenna, Carissa Pavlica, and Carla Day had to say about all the goodness. http://www.tvfanatic.com/2013/05/supernatural-season-finale-round-table-sacrifice/ And in case you missed…
Strip away the falling angels, the demons, and the Demon Trials and we are left with a story about seeking redemption. It is this aspect that makes Supernatural so utterly gripping and powerful each episode—and “Sacrifice” is no different. It’s all about forgiveness. It can be hard won or given freely.

(All Photos by Alice Jester unless otherwise noted) Salute to Supernatural in New Jersey always holds a special place in my heart. I went to the very first con back in 2009, which was only my second ever. At the time, it was a very small event. Jared was scheduled as a guest but cancelled. …
Twice a year, a bunch of us “Supernatural” bloggers get together at TV Overmind and give our two cents (okay, sometimes four) about the season gone past.
