Here it is, the last review for season nine. Thank freaking goodness. To say it was a chore rewatching and writing up reviews for this horrific season would be a massive understatement. It reminded me of everything I absolutely loathed about this season. The season where I almost quit watching “Supernatural” for good (multiple friends…
“I didn’t have a choice.” You DID! You just made the wrong one. Lots of times. I did like “Road Trip” more than “Holy Terror”. This is an Andrew Dabb script and like his others, it was inconsistency galore. Some things worked, some things didn’t. The biggest strength, Crowley was really freaking awesome. Every…
Dean Winchester got what he deserved. I could end the review of “Holy Terror” right there, but I suppose in his desperate act he left a lot of collateral damage in his wake, so I should probably explore that. I just think it’s pretty sad as the episode closed out on Dean’s devastated face that…
Do angels exist? Christian, Hebrew and Muslim religious texts abound with references to the heavenly host. Within Supernatural, the concept of angels was first explored in 2.13 “Houses of the Holy.” This is when we learned that a young, narrow-minded Dean was absolutely certain angels didn’t exist. Sam, on the other hand, wasn’t so sure….
Even though you could call me a Supernatural happy camper fan, I do have a few things that I would have wanted the show to delve into more properly. Some of these I have mentioned but mostly I like to keep the things that bother me to myself. That doesn’t mean those things are not…
“Place me behind prison walls – walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground. There is a possibility that in some way or another I may be able to escape. But stand me on that floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me…
Supernatural Season 9 Hits & Misses – Part Two I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: I enjoyed season nine, which made the nitpicks hard to come by (I am not looking forward to season 10 H&M list assembly!), so excuse the loose Misses below.
In honour of season 11 and all the attitude adjustments it wrought, today we’re counting down some of the top ten “redemption” hits in Supernatural history.
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. I decided to use the same…
I’ll confess, my idea to update my angel meta by looking at what we learned about angels and how the show used them in seasons eight, nine, ten, and eleven turned out to be much harder than I expected. That wasn’t because of any depth or complexity in what the show presented. On the contrary:…
I love Supernatural. Let me start out by stating that for the record. I also generally liked season 9. In my opinion it added several very good episodes to what was already an outstanding series. I have been interested in the plot lines – all the plot lines – this season. The casting, acting, directing…
Rewatching the first half of Supernatural’s ninth season has thrown into sharp focus how much Sam and Dean changed over the course of this year. In early episodes, we heard Sam say he felt good, better than he had in years. As far as Sam knew, the brothers had cleared the air a bit, and…
