“The gleam in their eyes telegraphs only too clearly that they are hoping for a headline, which of course means something disparaging, because nothing makes such good copy as a feud.” — Chuck Palahniuk
Rich, riveting, complex and so full of story details and character threads that it’s impossible to make anything of Supernatural’s “Stuck in the Middle (With You)” in just one viewing. Consequently, my review offers observations from two separate viewings: My original reactions when the episode first aired plus additional thoughts from my hiatus rewatch. These “retrospectives”…
Part 1 of “Defense of Supernatural Season 12” makes the case that the return of Sam and Dean’s loving relationship and the harmonious blending of the season’s arcs added up to one of the best years in the Supernatural series. In Part 2, Samandean addresses the other major characters and storylines, and how they contributed,…
“Even when I lose, I win!” Beautiful and empowering words written by Mark Sheppard regarding Crowley and his final accomplishments in the show. As painful as this is to write, I assure you, it is even more painful to accept – but when has that ever stopped any of us? After all, Hell hath no…
A Powerful, Deadly Delivery with Open Doors that Diminish Dangerous Distractions.
I struggle with Andrew Dabb scripts. While Robert Berens turned his script into a work of art, Dabb’s “All Along the Watchtower” felt like a story was thrown at us with a lot of random bits and we got to see what stuck to the wall. Some of it that did stick just looked…
Who We Are and All Along the Watchtower were excellent, both independent and united. Season twelve has had some decent episodes and has been sluggish about some key plots, no question. The payoff here makes the waiting worth it. Between character and story, 12.22 and 12.23 offer not only answers we’ve been looking for but…
The Morning After I am overwhelmed. Emotionally drained and intellectually stunned. THAT is the Supernatural we all know and love. The morning after watching the Supernatural season 12 two episode finale, 12.22 “Who We Are” and 12.23 “All Along the Watchtower”, my heart is aching with joy. Truly overflowing with happiness. I’m guessing those are…
This recap will address both 12.22 and 12.23. The first hour of the finale was written by Robert Berens and is called “Who We Are,” while the finale is “All Along the Watchtower” written by Andrew Dabb.
Aspects To Love & A Little Something About Eileen
While not at all what I expected from where we left off last week, There’s Something About Mary was, simply put, too short an episode that left me anxious and salivating for both karmic twists and conclusions. Typically by this point of the season there are so many things aligning and pieces being revealed to…
This episode, written by Ross-Leming and Buckner, is titled “There’s Something About Mary.” The episode begins with Eileen running through the woods being chased by a hellhound. The hellhound kills her and we see Ketch use a whistle to call the hound and then he feeds him.
