There have been a few season endings this past week! Some shows ended forever…some just for the season…But not us! Not on either count! Not only has another season been confirmed (and…may I crossing my fingers add that it has not been advertised as the final season, which seems to sound like there is a strong possibility for more…Hopefully!), but we still have another episode left! This season the CW ordered 23 episodes instead of the usual standard 22. The season finale, “Survival of the Fittest”, airs this coming Friday, May 18, 2012. I hope everyone is as excited about the finale as I am! Last Friday’s episode, “There Will Be Blood” was a fast paced, great episode that left me saying, “No, wait…why is it over?” All the big players were there: Crowley with all his flare, the creepy Alpha Vamp, a starting-to-walk-the-vengeful-side Bobby, Sam and his hair and sideburns, pieless Dean, Dean’s new leather jacket (yes, it is a big player More After The Cut...

Dear Mr. Edlund, thank you very much for managing to blow my mind yet again with your most recent Supernatural episode, “Reading is Fundamental”, a cornucopia of double meanings amounting to a veritable font of cerebral enigmatic profundities that may take me until the leviathan takeover to decipher completely. The word of God? hmmmmmmm…. When I first watched last Friday’s episode, I will admit that I felt it didn’t have the same urgency that I have come to expect of late. This one, although still having demon and angel takedowns, seemed a little slower to me. I found myself watching the episode experiencing the same impatience displayed by Dean when he threw the Sorry board across the table. I knew that between the glass of wine and Bejeweled Classic, I was missing something from my initial watch. I needed to sit back and wait for my download to watch again, because like Edlund’s big Cas episode last season, “The Man Who Would Be King”, this episode was all More After The Cut...

As it turns out, the episode dealing with a hacker is the episode that would give me ALL teh computer issues? And just what is it about iTunes that the amazingly awesomely splendiferous episodes always take the longest to get it us? I’m beginning to have “Frank” like thoughts, wondering if there is some greater conspiracy at work. The past few days of crazy issues with iTunes over this download really begs the question of whether or not the CW is purposely holding it back from the downloading market to boost the usage of the CW’s own website streaming. Maybe they are, maybe they aren’t, but what I will say is that forcing people to wait for the downloads could potentially backfire on them! It may force people who would readily purchase the episodes consider illegal downloading just to have easy access to a copy we can fast forward, rewind, etc. with which we can write our reviews. I feel like television in that sense is sabotaging itself regarding this whole piracy thing. Th More After The Cut...

Well, we knew we were in for it! With an amazingly funny episode that made us laugh and scream and clap my hands with joy, we knew that the brotherly fun, laughter and glitter would be coming to an end. Darkness is coming for Winchesters, and we just knew it was only a matter of time before everything came tumbling down. This episode was written by Ben Edlund, who happens to be one of my favorite scriptwriters, well, ever. Darin Morgan is up there too, but that isn’t important right now. If that Jeffery/demon talk reminded you of the Ruby/demon talk in “Malleus Maleficarum”…there’s a reason for that! And the Dean torture of Jeffrey in the beginning was very reminiscent of “On The Head Of A Pin”…Well, Ben gave us another episode with a ton of insight into our boys’ present state of mind. Repo Man was directed by someone new to Supernatural, but definitely not new to directing, Thomas J. Wright. Thomas is also not new to directing Jensen, he directed a ha More After The Cut...

After that preview last week, I really didn’t know what to expect going into last Friday’s Supernatural. We got the idea that it was going to be one crazy ride with the promise of clowns and unicorns from the promo, but were we even remotely prepared for the craziness that ensued? Plucky’s turned out to be one among the best filler episodes in a long time. We got to see one heck of a great comical episode, the likes of which we have not seen in a long time. After all the pain and death the brothers have been through over the years, it is wonderful to get such a crazy episode again! In my opinion, it ranks higher than the X-Files tribute of last season and has taken place high up on my list for awesomest funny episodes of all time. As a matter of prospective, “Hell House” and “Bad Day At Black Rock” top the list for me. “Plucky Pennywhistle’s Magic Menagerie” was written by Andrew Dabb and Daniel Loflin, who have written quite a few episodes. Some of those More After The Cut...

If I said I wasn’t a teensy bit concerned after learning the plot of Friday’s episode…I would be lying. After a magnificent episode “Time After Time”, we were smacked across the face with “Dean get’s laid BUT he winds up with a daughter”. This had me slightly freaking. From watching and reading various interviews with Sera Gamble as well as the cast, I was confident it would work out, but I could still hear that Lost In Space robot saying “Danger Wil Robinson” in my ear. Sera has said many times that the show was about Sam and Dean. I didn’t think she would change that by adding in a daughter to the mix, so I figured the girl would somehow be gotten rid of by the end…But still, I understood fan angst because I had some too… Sam and Dean defeated Chronos in the last episode, and now they are back to nothing going on with Dick Roman. The lack of something to do has brought Sam and Dean back to grief mode over the loss of Bobby. Sam tries to busy him More After The Cut...

“Everybody loses everybody and then one day BOOM your number’s up. But at least you’re making a difference. So enjoy it while it lasts, kid, because hunting’s the only clarity you’re gonna find in this life. That makes you luckier than most.” I loved this episode. As much as I loved Season Six’s “Frontierland”, this episode trumps that one by, well, a lot in my opinion. Written by Robbie Thompson (who also wrote this season’s “Slash Fiction”), and directed by Phil Sgriccia, “Time After Time” has to be hands down my favorite episode of this season, and among my favorite episodes of the series. The episode was a perfect storm of casting, costumes, setting, music and storytelling! A little warning–I have gone a little nuts with the pictoral representation of the episode on my review. Thank you CW, and specifically Winchester Family Business for the awesome stills. In “Time AFter Time”, Sam and Dean find out about a new case from an unexpect More After The Cut...

Friday night Supernatural returned with ratings up about 14%! I am so happy ratings have stayed consistent for the seventh season. After all, Friday at nine is a tough time to sell. I remember being a teenager when the X-Files started its run. I watched Sliders at 8pm on FOX on Fridays, but was afraid of slipping even further into a social coma if I watched a 9pm show. Sure, you could watch the 8pm show and still go out after, but heading out at 10pm? Not really an option–especially if you are still dealing with a curfew…I guess college weekends were still a possibility, but suffice it to say I didn’t start watching the X-Files “live” so to speak until it moved to Sundays. But I stay home for the Winchesters. Yet another reason I refer to Dean Winchester as my t.v. boyfriend… The holiday hiatus officially ended and we were back with a new episode. We left the Winchesters in December with the sinking feeling that Bobby wasn’t getting out of this ordeal a More After The Cut...

I’m sorry I am so far behind on writing this review! Lots of real life stuff was taking up my time. If you’re interested in my ramblings on that, check out my personal blogs. Truthfully, I have found this episode very difficult to write about. Such an amazing episode, and yet, well, Bobby! John buying the farm in the first episode of Season Two didn’t really bother me much. Sure, it was sad losing Jeffery Dean Morgan, but I was never a fan of John Winchester. I hated the way he treated Dean. I hated the wedge he drove between Sam and Dean. A lot of people love John though. A friend of mine actually commented that John was a real guy’s guy. Yes, this friend is actually a guy. He said that he liked that the writers had the courage to make John a dick… But Bobby is another story. I loved Bobby. I loved how he knew how to get Dean out of his shell. He knew how to make Dean face his issues, to realize that he needed to take care of himself too, not just worry abo More After The Cut...
