Monster Mythology Evolution: Reapers Reapers have been present in Supernatural almost from the word go. In the now classic episode “Faith”, we were introduced to a stoic and classic image of a reaper, harnessed by a woman playing with life and death. Her efforts backfired but only after it saved Dean, thankfully. Since then, we’ve…
This week I’m counting down Supernatural’s Favorite Episodes, Number 90 to Number 81! I won’t re-hash all the details about this epic project (which were described in “The Road So Far” introduction), so I’ll just quickly remind you that this list of Favorite Episodes is based on the rankings submitted to me from several participants,…
Welcome back to the “Memorable Moments” series! For episode 13.05, “Advanced Thanatology”, I once again put together a list of what I felt were the best and most memorable moments from the episode. The list varies from episode to episode depending on what transpired. I hope you enjoy it and share what your picks would…
I am so torn about this episode… Final Score: For those wondering, yes I messed up on the angel count. 3 died in S13 up to this point, and 8 died in S12, meaning it was 22 angels left in heaven at the end of S11. Yes I…
The Morning After Depressed. That’s how Supernatural’s “Funeralia” made me feel. Really. I can’t shake it. There were two concurrent plotlines in “Funeralia”. The first was Castiel’s story – Heaven, Naomi, 9 angels left in all of the universe and the brown outs of Heaven. This story was about hopelessness, giving up and death. It…
“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.” ― Mark Twain Boy, this episode was a dive in the deep end. How reaching a breaking point can happen even to a strongest man. I mean if Sam ever drops…
Four Days Later I can’t believe that Supernatural season 13 just keeps getting better! “Advanced Thanatology” was another superb episode, extending the run to five in a row! Steve Yockey may have produced the best episode yet this year – quite an accomplishment considering my high opinion of the prior episodes. Billie returned as Death,…
This was an episode of “Supernatural” where all the elements came together and delivered. Interesting, if classic, plot-of-the-week, brothers on the road, emotion and angst and a major plot advancement/reveal for the grand scheme of the “Supernatural” world. Yes, this is the type of episode where the simple all clicks together and works.
Happy New Year, dear readers! When better to finish our retrospecive on Supernatural’s 10th season than the time of year that’s filled with reflection on the past and plans for moving forward? What made you happiest about season ten? Here are my picks for it’s Hits and Misses!
After I made “A Tribute to the Kick-Ass Women of Supernatural” and part 2 , I wanted to write a similar article about men. I value both in Supernatural because the show has some of the most remarkable guest actors and actresses, so the loss of both are deeply felt. To create my list for the…
What do you want to see happen in S11? That question was asked of me and Alice in the TV Fanatic Roundtable for “Beyond the Mat”. Before Supernatural begins the final sequence of eight episodes that will hurdle us all toward whatever heart stopping, cliff-hanger disaster the Winchester brothers must endure this year, this question…
The Darkness. The next unimaginably bad, impossible-to-defeat enemy unleashed by the Winchesters. When The Darkness billowed over the remote landscape, was I the only one who was reminded of the demon-filled black smoke that escaped Hell in “All Hell Breaks Loose 2”? Nightsky I’m the Co-Editor-in-Chief, Social Media Manager (Twitter, Facebook and Instagram), Live…
