Far Away Eyes’ Review: “Supernatural” 9.22- “Stairway to Heaven”

The first half of season nine built itself elegantly around the serpent in the Garden of Eden and the Fall of Man. We saw several incarnations—from Gadreel to Metatron to the Fall from Heaven to Castiel’s bout as a mortal. Each serpent infected a particular Garden and set in motion consequences still rippling outward. It…

Alice’s Review: Supernatural 9.22 – “Stairway To Heaven” aka There’s Still No Plan

Back in early season nine a fellow blogger who shall remain nameless confided to me that they saw a big issue with “Supernatural.”  Carver and his writing team had no concrete plan -one hadn’t been spelled out yet.  If it ended up being that way by midseason, the season would fall apart before the end.  After…

Some connect to a character—as seen…

Gerry’s Review of Supernatural’s “King of the Damned” – You Cannot Wield It

Supernatural’s “King of the Damned” was one of writing duo Eugenie Ross-Leming and Brad Buckner’s better efforts. The episode was still plagued with unnecessary continuity errors and handled fan commentary with a good deal less finesse than Ben Edlund, but we finally got some real movement forward.

Sofia’s Review: Supernatural 9.21 – “King of the Damned

“King of the Damned” is a representation of everything good and right and wonderful about Supernatural. Oh, did I come on too strong? Well, I meant it. This episode did not quit from beginning to end and left me with my jaw on the floor. It was especially refreshing to have a Winchester-centric episode after the…
