“Torn and Frayed” is an aptly named episode. The song, from the Rolling Stones album Exile on Mainstreet, and its lyrics touch on two of its storylines: Dean and Benny and Sam and Amelia. The lyric reads, “Just as long as the guitar plays, let it steal your heart away.” In this particular episode, the…
“I can’t enjoy a world I need to save, Dean. I can enjoy it when this is all over with. Right now, there’s nothing more important than this.” Kevin pretty much summed up this entire episode in one sentence. It’s an important lesson, putting all else above your happiness, but that’s probably why in the…
And here we are, back in business! Hellatus over! Hooray! I can’t tell you how happy I was to have “Supernatural” back. Seriously. I spent the afternoon beaming! I had a day off work so I actually watched it live (don’t ask me how ‘k?) and I was so chirpy after it, which is…
Hi! How are we all feeling? A little fragile? This hiatus is going to be harsh, Stupid CW changing their return date. You know, I’m at work while most of you watch the show and this week my twitter was going nutso! I get alerts when someone tweets me and I kept getting “Oh Amy,…
Wednesday night the mid season finale aired and quite a bit is out in the open! After seeing how civil the brothers have been to each other the last couple of episodes, we see a bit of that eruption we have been expecting! Daniel Loflin wrote this one alone. Andrew Dabb wrote Hunteri Heroici. Since…
Seeing episodes like this one make me wish that I could just bottle up the awesomeness that is ‘Supernatural’. I don’t know about you guys but I loved everything about this episode. Yes, harsh things were said, feelings were hurt and brothers were betrayed but that drama keeps fans like myself totally engaged. So needless…
I’m setting aside all conspiracy theories this week. I’m taking the whole episode for what we were given, because taking this suspense filled hour anywhere else will blow my freaking mind. Now that’s out of the way, HOLY MOTHER OF CHUCK! That was one very emotionally gut wrenching, dig-my-nails-into-the-armchair hour of television. I cried, I…
WARNING!!!!! If you haven’t seen “Citizen Fang,” read no further! There will be discussion and spoilers and other sundries, and it will ruin your whole hiatus if you cheat and read this before watching. Probably… But, if you’ve watched, then enter and speculate with me.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh it’s the last episode before the HELLATUS! We’re heading in a bit early this year, at episode 9. But still! We have 5 weeks ahead to sweat over what happens this week and drive ourselves crazy with more theories, though maybe, this week will help us with some of those? (Yeah right!). Ok, there’s…
Season 8 of Supernatural has played with various themes. It has looked at choice, personal responsibility, good intentions, and grief. In “A Little Slice of Kevin,” we see another theme, that of perception, addressed directly. It has been there in various ways throughout the season, yet here we see it thrust out into the open,…
Episode 7, Season 8 A Little Slice of Kevin Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel We go to the idyllic setting of Randy Raccoon Pre-School, where, while a great wind blows, a demon disappears into a restroom with Aaron, a cute little boy covered in paint–and kidnaps him. The other kids run for cover, screaming; an…
I promised it, and I’m delivering! After my procedure Tuesday, I have risen like a phoenix from the ashes (preferably one that has reformed and/or hasn’t killed so I can get the Winchester brothers to decide not to do me in…) and am working on my review. O.K., I’m being a little melodramatic…it really wasn’t…
