Alice’s Review of The Winchesters 1.08, “Hang On To Your Life” and 1.09 Preview

The Winchesters is back from winter hiatus and, well, it was better than I thought it would be.  This was clearly one of the better episodes of the season.  Having said that, it still didn’t pack the “wow” factor I was looking for.  After all, with some high profile guest appearances, the expectations were a…

Threads: The Winchesters Season One Episode Eight “Hang On To Your Life”

The Morning After I’m still smiling after watching The Winchesters return from hiatus episode “Hang on to Your Life” last night! For the first time in the series, I watched an episode twice, back to back, because I couldn’t get enough of Richard Speight, Jr.’s wit, JoJo Fleites’s singing, Tom Welling’s teddy bear tough guy…

Winter Hellatus is over!  The Winchesters is back on Tuesday, now at a new time at 9:00 ET.  Will there be fallout from the midseason finale?  Maybe.  All signs point to emotional issues at least.  Will John and Mary jump into a relationship?  History says yes, but will it happen now?  Will Samuel be okay?  History…

After a seven week holiday break, The Winchesters returns to us Tuesday, January 24 at a new time of 9E/8C (U.S.). Having aired seven episodes, the Supernatural prequel is half way through its 13 episode first season. In that time, we met the younger versions of John Winchester and Mary Campbell, and Mary’s hunting buddies:…

Alice’s Review: The Winchesters Season 1 Episode 7 – “Reflections”

I actually watched The Winchesters on the Tuesday it aired.  The entire season, I’ve been watching online the next day.  Why watch live this time?  Simple, I’m a sucker for Tom Welling.  I’ve only met Tom Welling once.  I was in the final Smallville press room at Comic Con.  He never showed up at Comic…

The Morning After Phew! I now know how Castiel must have felt when Metatron forced the sum total of all pop culture references into his mind in the span of a few seconds! After six episodes of a slow but steady flow of clues to the Akrida, the Men of Letters, and the disappearances of…

Alice’s Review of The Winchesters 1.06 – “Art of Dying”

Tell me if you’ve heard this one before.  John Winchester has anger issues… “Art of Dying” was yet another not bad Monster of the Week episode, but it really didn’t do a lot for character advancement or plot movement.  It felt like filler, designed to stall until the big midseason finale where we finally get…

This is it, the episode that everything has been leading up to!  Well, at least I hope that is the case.  We finally get to see the elusive Samuel Campbell played by the most amazing Tom Welling!  This episode is also directed by someone near and dear to the SPN Family, Richard Speight Jr.  Given…

A Week Later For five weeks, we have tracked The Winchesters’ messages about shedding one’s past, or learning how to live with the trauma carried forward from that past. For the first time, though, 1.06 “Art of Dying”, foreshadowed a future we know awaits both John and Mary. I didn’t hear this thread the first…

Going to New York Comic Con 2022 (“NYCC”) to see the premiere screening of The Winchesters was a near necessity for me.  Once it was announced that the “Pilot” episode would be shown to a ballroom full of people before it premiered on television, I went into full out panic/obsessed mode to get tickets, credentials and…
