For Sam fans, as promised, I’m taking on the common concerns many have voiced over the younger Winchester brother recently. I’ve been struggling with this analysis for a week now, unsure how to capture my views into coherent thought. Then I saw “Criss Angel Is A Douchebag” and all the pieces fell in place. Poor…
It’s time to share the Friday evening treats that Warner Brothers is always so kind in delivering. Three clips this time. Enjoy! Clip #1 (One you’ve seen before, but its a goodie!) Clip #2 Clip #3 Alice JesterAlice Jester is the founder, editor-in-chief, head writer, programmer, web designer, site administrator, marketer, and moderator for The…
Bonus! This recap covers the Sam scenes the CW forgot to show! You know, the ones that gave Sam some action and a plot. I even get to reveal the alternate ending! While “Family Remains” was a decent filler episode, there just wasn’t enough to it where deep analysis on my part is required. It’s just some good…
Lately I’ve been spending a lot of time working with all sorts of multimedia tools in order to get this website close to my vision. I’m not there yet, but in my dabbling this weekend with video editing tools, I found a whole new appreciation for these fans that manage to put these videos together. …
(Most of the original article can be found here, minus page 6. The original comments are there, you’ll probably recognize some of the names! I’m reposting here to have a full archive of my Supernatural reviews.) When tragedy strikes, when all is lost and lives are shattered, all that’s left are the pieces and the…
Reviewing “The Magnificent Seven” is weird since I’m going from something unbelievable like the finale last week to this episode, easily one of the worst of the season. Last week I marveled at the awesomeness of the Kripster for his flawless script in “No Rest For The Wicked”, and now I get to ask what…
Reviewing episodes after seeing the rest of the season creates an interesting challenge. I try to judge the episode on its merits alone as if I was watching for the first time, but I can’t avoid recalling post episode subplots that cleanly tie into the one up for review. “The Kids Are Alright” is one of those…
I can’t believe we’re already up to “Bad Day at Black Rock” in the repeats list. It seems like the finale was just yesterday. Oh, it was, because I watched it again for the hundredth time. Is it September yet? No? Okay, I guess I’ll kill time with this review. Be prepared, this is a…
On a personal note, I was able to confirm from Jared Padalecki at the “Salute to Supernatural” convention in Chicago that he does indeed cringe when he sees your name on a script. In his words, he’s either “naked, crying, or naked and crying.” Do you take some twisted pride in that? Jared is hilarious. The…

A seven week hiatus can be rather maddening. Given Supernatural’s explosive season four and the mind boggling material that’s been presented for ten episodes, this time to reflect has left me with more questions than answers. I’m sure I’m not alone. Thankfully, Sera Gamble, Supervising Producer and Writer for Supernatural, an instrumental player in developing the…
The best horror I’ve ever seen were psychological thrillers, where some twisted bastard skillfully freaked me out with mind bending twists as opposed to a hockey mask and a chainsaw. So, I had to admit the idea of Supernatural tackling such a concept in “Dream A Little Dream of Me” was pretty intriguing. How could…
