I’ve been reviewing “Supernatural” a long time. I started way back in season three and a few hundred episodes later I’m still looking at each one of these episodes under a microscope. It’s amazing how many of these eps, especially in the hands of lesser writers, become paint by number affairs. Tell a standard MOTW…
Yep, I’m still trying to process this one. Don’t take that as a negative though. This is a good thing. I haven’t been this stunned in a while. Not even last season’s finale left me as shaken as “The Executioner’s Song”. It was an emotional script, but they put so much more into this episode…
Dear Jensen, On behalf of the Supernatural family, I want to thank you for the tremendous gift you gave us in “The Executioner’s Song”. The emotional depth you put into your performance left us breathless.
Summary: This episode was written by Robert Berens and directed by Phil Sgriccia. The episode brings us back to the most important myth arc of the past season and a half – the Mark of Cain.
This is the last episode before Hellatus and the last episode before we move to Wednesdays. So what do we know? We have the usual promotional material… The CW Press Release: SUPERNATURAL “The Executioner’s Song” — (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV) THE RETURN OF CAIN — Dean (Jensen Ackles), Sam (Jared Padalecki) and…
Where to even begin to talk about this one? So many plot threads, so little time. Some were wrapped up, some were newly woven and left to dangle for another day. Finally, season ten seems to be gearing up towards some heat and drama just in time to leave us at the edge of a…
There we go, some actual, fluid, well paced and just plain well written story telling! One of the glaring weaknesses with a majority of the “Supernatural” scripts over the last four or five seasons has been the inability to juggle multiple overlapping stories at once. Heck, they aren’t even good at tackling two strong character…
Summary: This episode was written by Robert Berens and directed by Robert Singer. The episode focuses on several stories that involve the introduction of the Rowena character, the exploration of the Hannah backstory, and the reemergence of the Cole character.
I get to pull preview duty this week, which is kind of bizarre for me for two reasons. For one, I haven’t done one of these previews in a while and two, I’m writing a preview about an episode that I have absolutely no clue what it’s about! Yes, call it being spoilerphobic, laziness, or…
Warning: If you have not seen tonight’s episode, “Alex Annie Alexis Ann,” then beware spoilers ahead! Episode Summary: This was a good old fashioned monster of the week episode written by Robert Berens and featuring my favorite guest star, Kim Rhodes aka Sheriff Mills. The episode begins with the capture and arrest of a young…
Here’s what the CW has released for tomorrow’s episode Alex, Annie, Alexis, Ann
I am happy to say Robert Berens’ “Captives” has settled some of my doubts about Supernatural’s story line this season. The episode wasn’t perfect, but it was very good. Berens is an excellent addition to the writers’ room, though I do wish someone on that staff loved writing Sam the way Berens loves to write…
