I did something I normally don’t do before writing my weekly review. I went and read other people’s reviews. I honestly wanted to see if I was missing something, if my reservations about the tired pacing, lackluster tension, and absence of originality in this episode were unfounded. I even watched the episode right away after…
Deals on Supernatural never end well. John’s deal with Azazel to save Dean came at the cost of his life. Dean’s deal with the Crossroads Demon (eventually held by Lilith) yielded Sam’s life—at the cost of Dean’s own. Castiel’s deal with Crowley to defeat Raphael lead to the release of the Leviathan. So, it isn’t…

When I first saw “Season 7, Time For A Wedding!” I actually liked it. Not love, and it certainly wasn’t the funniest episode I’d seen, but after all the controversy over recent episodes, I was in the mood for something light. It delivered. As you all know, I’ve been a little sour on…
Oh seriously, what sort of speculation do we need to be doing? We all needed a break, a light hearted romp. We needed an episode where we didn’t have to harp on continuity or character arcs at all. Mrs. Becky Rosen-Winchester took care of all of that for us! I’m just going to…
I’m mixing it up this week. After going through all the goodness of “Slash Fiction,” I realized that a mere review could not do it justice. Not by a long shot. So I’ve decided to dust off my mad recapping skills and pour through this one bit by bit. There’s so much to comment on!…
For a new writer to the show, Robbie Thompson seemed like an old pro. His episode, “Slash Fiction” reads as a love letter. It touches on so many things. Its self reflexive nature makes fans notice all the shout outs to previous episodes, while giving us more on the big bad of the season. If…
Slash Fiction Season 7 Episode 6 Robin’s Rambles by Robin Vogel Now ,“ Sam and Dean enter a bank, looking very unsure of themselves. “Are you sure about this?” asks Sam. “Trust me,” says Dean.
