#2 – Sam Winchester I hear you all. “You better have a damned good explanation for this one, Alice!” I do, and I think I’ve got a point. We’ll see how much of a good one. Sam’s greatest enemy is himself. All it takes is a viewing of “When The Levee Breaks” and “Lucifer…
#3 – Gordon Walker I know, this guy rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. My husband absolutely hates him. When you look at it though, Gordon is the first ambiguous character in terms of crossing undefined lines, something this show has chosen to explore constantly since then, even with its main characters. Ever since Gordon…
#4 – The Ghostfacers Huh? WTF? These guys aren’t evil, or malicious, or have even tried to hurt (intentionally) a sole. So why are they on the list? Simple, this list is all about antagonists. Sometimes they’re not creepy and can be funny. In this case, they’re funny and completely freaking clueless. The Ghostfacers, aka Hellhounds, aka Ed Zeddmore and Harry…
Today Warner Brothers released their final lineups for their 11 television show panels to happen at next month’s San Diego Comic Con. This includes Supernatural, whose panel is on Sunday, July 26th. I got this for another reason besides being on Warner Brother’s normal press release list. It’s because I’m going!!! I got my final press…
Cathryn Humphris wrote her first episode for Supernatural late in season one and has since averaged only two episodes per season. I don’t know why she doesn’t write more, but I enjoy the ones she has written. Dead Man’s Blood was her first episode and she showed from the beginning she could handle big material…
#5 – The Trickster I can’t explain what The Trickster did for us in just two episodes, but he became iconic. Sure, the episodes were two of the more talked about ones but still, for someone with such a deadly sense of humor, he managed to win us over. Of course, it helps when that twisted sense…
Note from Alice: Sorry for the slower posting on these, but this last week has involved an intense and painful “upgrade” of yours truly’s laptop to Windows 7. Okay, it’s better than Vista, but it’s still Microsoft! Anyway, I think the kinks are getting worked out (not to mention the time we took to do the…
Did Kripke Screw Over Sam Fans? I will end all suspense, if there was any, and state unequivocally that the answer is no. No, Sam is not too stupid to live. No, Kripke did not screw over Sam fans. To believe that is to believe that the enemy is simple-minded and obvious in their ploys. To believe that…
#7 – Shapeshifter – Pick Your Favorite I try to give a subjective analysis to these lists, but it’s obvious every once in a while when the subject matter gets too damned subjective, what I pick might not necessarily jive with most other opinions. Take for example the Shapeshifter. There have been three of them in…
#9 – Pagan Gods Antagonists are even better when their work makes them happy. That’s especially true for the Pagan Gods turned over-the-top suburbanites in “A Very Supernatural Christmas.” Only the warped minds of the Supernatural creative team could pull off such this absurd pairing. Meet Madge and Edward Carrigan, the modern day too-sugary- to-be-real…
Supernatural, my comfort episodes: What makes a comfort episode? For me it’s an episode that I can curl up with and just watch, no major themes at play, no big uh-huh moments, just something that makes me feel warm and fuzzy. What do my comfort episodes have? Brotherly moments, humor, sometimes a lot of humor;…
By popular demand (okay more like a tiny amount of chatter led by a Brit with an alligator obsession – just kidding Suze!), I present the latest top ten list, The Top Ten Supernatural Antagonists. I hestiate to call them villains, because this show prides itself on blurring that fine line between good and…
