Thoughts on “The Devil You Know” Season five of Supernatural has been quite a mixed bag of episodes ranging from the phenomenal to the low-level mediocre and everything in between. For me, The Devil You Know fell about smack dab in the middle of those two, perhaps a little closer to the phenomenal than…
“Ghostfacers” Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Ed Zeddemore and Harry Spengler introduce their pilot, GHOSTFACERS. They sit in chairs. Behind them a fire crackles in a fireplace. They are presenting something during the crippling writer’s strike, something they claim will be “the most frightening hour of television.” Phase 1 – Homework – Ed and Harry walk…
“Malleus Maleficarum” –Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel I had early knowledge of this episode during my Vancouver visit when I learned they were filming a witch episode next, really, really scary and good, is what I was told. While this ep had its good points, it doesn’t fall amongst my favorites. Meh. Paul and Janet,…
“Bad Day at Black Rock” –Robin’s Ramblings by Robin Vogel Kubrick visits Gordon in jail, who insists, “Sam Winchester must die.” Driving in the Impala, the brothers fight about Ruby. Dean’s concerned that Sam is trusting a demon, but Sam just wants to use her. There’s a war going on, she can help them” plus,…
Warning, this is a really long one. In the past when recaps have gotten this long I’ve broken it up into two parts. This time I didn’t do that. So, I’m hoping this will be killing some uber time at work for you. Enjoy! —————————————————————— Okay, I’ve taken enough recovery time after several days of…
Thoughts on My Bloody Valentine How we are at episode fourteen of season five already, I’ll never know. The last four weeks have flown by in a whirlwind of mytharc and emotion. I truly enjoyed this episode. Coming off last week’s heart-break, the humour was much appreciated. The gore, much less so. Several watches under…
“The End.” The episode that answers the burning question, what if you held an apocalypse in Kansas City and no one came? Let’s get started. Then: A whole freaking lot. Now: The Impala! That’s a perfect way to open an episode. Dean pulls up, parks in front of a meter and doesn’t put change in….
Thanks so much elle for submitting another great review. She’s one up on me, since I’ve been going through family induced writer’s block for three days. Enjoy! ——————————- Thoughts on the “The End” The Recap How nice was it to see John? I had to smile just at hearing his voice – glad to have him…

TV Review: Supernatural – “Ghostfacers” Before I get started, a belated Happy Birthday to Eric Kripke, who celebrated on Thursday. I only hope he wasn’t stressing out too much about the airing of the latest episode and enjoyed himself instead. He shouldn’t worry too much, for this episode was very well received. “Ghostfacers” proved to…
Sure, it was a repeat, but weren’t we all a little excited on Thursday to go to the TV Guide and see our beloved show Supernatural listed in the lineup again? I got a little emotional, and I didn’t even care what episode was on. The CW played a cruel joke on us for six…
