Yesterday on my doorstep was the best cure to a rotten day at work ever, courtesy of Warner Brothers Television. As my jaw hit the floor once I saw what was inside I knew that somehow, after writing obsessively about Supernatural for months, I’ve made an impression. Inside was a black box, sealed with a…
This is another one from the blogcritics archives that never made it over to this site, until now. I know, it’s looking back at season three and the quality of it’s DVD release, but there’s a great little list at the end pointing out what we learned from season three. I’ve always thought it amusing. …
I told everyone this would be a surprise. The question is, why review this one? There are two reasons. First, there isn’t an episode other than “Ghostfacers” more polarizing among fans, thus that makes it worthy of a critical review. Second, I felt like it. “Heart” instantly commanded attention since it combined the writing of Sera Gamble…
In honor of Impala die cast miniatures going out this week with the Supernatural Season Three DVD set at Best Buy, I’m devoting space this week to gush over the third main cast member, the always dependable car of Dean Winchester, aka the Metallicar. The Impala I’m sure there’s a few of you…
Previously on Supernatural: Sam’s dead! As in not breathing, stiff as a board, Smurf blue dead. Dean wasn’t too happy about that. Kripke goes for ripping our hearts out from the word go. The entire season’s summed up by the traditional “Carry On Wayward Son”, and Sam’s death is more gripping to music. It’s strange…
Okay, all that virtual arm twisting has paid off. Upon request, I pulled out the season two DVDs (okay, I picked them up from their reserved spot next to the TV) and took on two of the most gut-wrenching episodes done on this show. “All Hell Breaks Loose” is right. These episodes made their significant…
It’s Sam’s turn! As I’m sure many of you have picked up from my previous articles, I’m rather intrigued by the character of Sam Winchester. He’s dark and mysterious, and I really need to look hard to even get a small grasp of what’s he’s all about. Dean’s more open and since he’s already hit…
I got back from vacation to some wonderful news about the upcoming season four from the Supernatural panel at Comic Con this weekend. For those interested in what was said, go to Supernatural Wiki for full reports. As excited as I am about the new season (and still trying hard to avoid spoilers), I’m still…
Note, 7/2/09 – Please note, this list is very outdated. I did this during the Season Three Hiatus. I know it needs to be expanded to a top ten and updated with season four episodes. In the meantime, enjoy what I thought back then. Here we go. I’m placing my head on the proverbial chopping block…
It’s Christmas in July! What a better way to celebrate than to re-experience for only the second time the twisted, gory, heart-wrenching, fast-paced, cynical, and downright brilliant version of Christmas the Supernatural way. Kripke and Co. are a bunch of sick bastards, and we love them for it. I tried in an exhaustive number of…
Before I get started with this week’s recap, I want to send my thanks to all of you who read and sent comments regarding my little copout from last week for “Red Sky At Morning”. The feedback was fantastic and it seems many of you agreed with my choices for worst episodes. The best episodes…
I tried. I even forced myself to watch “Red Sky At Morning” again, hoping to find someway to do a review that didn’t sound like an insensitive berating of what is clearly the one off episode of the season that every show is allowed. Even Eric Kripke himself admitted that this was not a good…
