'Supernatural' does the Harlem Shake

SPN Harlem Shake

And the Harlem Shake craze lives on.

The latest YouTube fad has made its way across the border to Vancouver, Canada, to the set of the CW’s Supernatural. A video with the cast and crew’s take on the viral video phenomenon is now on the Interwebs for your viewing pleasure (or displeasure, depending on how sick you are of Harlem Shake videos).

The Supernatural gang is rather late to the Harlem Shake party, but they may have the distinction of being the first to make a Harlem Shake vid with a crane shot. Yes, we get a bird’s eye view of the proceedings — crossroads, demon trap, Impala and all. Kicking things off in the solo dance of the first 15 seconds is, naturally, Mr. Eye of the Tiger himself, Jensen Ackles. See if you can pick out Jared Padalecki, Osric Chau, director Guy Norman Bee and other cast and crew members in the video below: READ FULL STORY »

'Supernatural' recap: Of gods and men

Hey, Supernatural fans, your Winchester Wednesday report will be brought to you by yours truly this week while your fearless leader Sandra Gonzalez is in the midst of making the big move to the City of Angels (kind of appropriate, don’t you think?).

This week’s episode, “Remember the Titans,” isn’t about football but of course, this being Supernatural, is about the actual Titans. Or one in particular, Prometheus. While Sam and Dean wait to hear back from Kevin about the next translation of the demon tablet, they take on a case of what appears to be a zombie (“boys, aim for the head”) but turns out to be a god.

Read on for my picks for the five best moments of the episode. READ FULL STORY »

'Supernatural' recap: The Truth About Cats and Dogs

Last week’s episode of Supernatural was always going to be a hard act to follow. I mean, it’s not easy to beat an hour filled with major brotherly love and hellhounds. So I was not surprised that this week’s episode, which was about a witch with a scrambled noggin, felt a little less exciting than the last few episodes.

That said, it wasn’t without its great moments.

One such moment came right at the top of the episode, right after the Stooge conversation (see below). Sam and Dean had arrived at a motel after a long drive, and we got the sense that Dean still wasn’t quite ok with Sam taking on the trials on his own. It was just a small moment, but I liked that we tackled this right off the top of the episode, because it set a tone for the rest of their interactions in the episode… READ FULL STORY »

'Supernatural' recap: 'Believe in me, too'

SUPERNATURAL

After a season that started off pretty rocky for the Winchester brothers, tonight’s episode of Supernatural proved that they’re more bonded together than ever — and reaffirmed everything I love about these two crazy dudes.

As has been the trend with Supernatural lately, this episode saw yet another big mythology development: After weeks of headaches, nosebleeds, sleepless nights, and a diet of “ground-up hooves and pig anuses” (hot dogs), Kevin finally finished decoding the tablet. So Dean and Sam interrupted their homemade dinner (courtesy of Chef Dean!) to rush over and learn the details he’d uncovered.

Unfortunately for Sam and Dean, the instructions were a little complicated. But what else would you expect? We’re closing the gates of Hell, people, not cooking a Hot Pocket. Their new goal, as Kevin explained, was to pass a series of dangerous tests and earn the ability to close the gates. The catch? He’d only decoded one of three tests so far — and this couldn’t be a team effort. One person must complete all the tasks, he said. READ FULL STORY »

'Supernatural' recap: Everybody loves Golems

Guys, I want a golem!!!

In fact, I think Sam and Dean should get in the market for one. Because the (approx.) 7-foot clay man proved to be quite the asset last night when the Winchester brothers found themselves going up against some Nazi necromancers in a really fantastic episode written by Ben Edlund, called “Everybody Hates Hitler.”

They were certainly not monsters we’ve seen before on the show, so in a rare event, the brothers (and the audience) found themselves on a fact-finding mission. What kills these things? (A shot to the head and immediate torching.) How strong were they? (Not stronger than a Golem.) And what did these necromancers want?

The latter question in particular was a captivating part of the episode. Sam had actually stumbled upon the case thanks to the Men of Letter’s treasure of info, which brought the story of a spontaneously combusting Rabbi to Sam’s attention. That Rabbi, it turned out, had a book filled with the secrets of something called the Thule Society — who were essentially a bunch of necromancers who helped start the Nazi Party. Jerks. The necromancers who chased the Rabbi wanted this book back. READ FULL STORY »

'Supernatural' recap: Yodas and Jedi

Sam and Dean experienced quite the shock at the start of Supernatural last night: Their grandpa came out of the closet! Literally. (This is Supernatural, not a soap, folks.)

Yes, Grandpa Henry Winchester made his grand debut, traveling all the way from 1958 to help the boys keep a very important key out of some very bad (although, nicely manicured) hands.

But Grandpa didn’t know that he’d be meeting up with Sam and Dean at first. He had actually carried out his timey wimey magic in order to contact John, his son. Upon arriving, however, he found himself face to face with Sam and Dean, who were less than welcoming. (I can’t blame them, though — a man came out of their closet.) And soon enough he was informed that John was a little, ehem, dead. Awkward. READ FULL STORY »

'Supernatural' GIF recap: The only thing you have to know about last night's episode

Last night’s episode of Supernatural was a romp. A pure, no-apologies, fun-filled romp, featuring the return of Felicia Day as nerdy lesbian hacker Charlie.

Usually, an 800+ word recap is in order — complete with analysis, commentary, quotable moments, and theories. But for last night’s episode, which took Sam and Dean into the world of live-action role play, there’s really only one thing you have to know — this happened:

'Supernatural' recap: Sammy's Choice

Supernatural-810

Supernatural is back! And on this week’s episode, Sam and Dean had to stop being annoyed with each other for 20 seconds in order to help Castiel rescue an angel.

Seem simple? It kinda was — especially by Supernatural standards. In fact, I found this week’s episode to be much less about their mission and more about deeper personal plots. In Sam’s case, he had to choose between a life with Amelia and a life of hunting.

As we know, Dean has been in this position before, and this is hardly the first time a Winchester has done the hokey pokey with “normal life.” Both have tried and — so far — failed to succeed in having a regular life. In the past, Sam has always been better at moving on beyond hunting, but this week proved that it will always be hard for Sam to let Dean shoulder the responsibility alone. READ FULL STORY »

'Supernatural' midseason finale recap: Trust issues

WARNING: If you haven’t watched this week’s midseason finale of Supernatural, don’t read on. Unless you want to. But consider yourself warned.

Is anyone else exhausted? I certainly am, and I place blame completely on Supernatural‘s midseason finale, which was emotionally draining — in all the right ways.

Of course, I expected that because I knew that this week’s episode marked the return of Dean’s Purgatory buddy Benny (Ty Olsson), whose arc this season has been a great source of high drama and emotional moments. (Remember the vampire pirate episode from a few week’s back? It was full of awesome.)

But while I have certainly sung Benny’s praises so arc this season, Sam has done quite the opposite, frequently playing hunters’ advocate when Dean tried to convince Sam that the vampire could be trusted. And this week, we learned Sam’s skepticism had hit new levels.

It was revealed that Sam had enlisted Martin “fresh from the crazy bin” Creaser follow the vampire and report any strange behavior. Understandably, Dean was less than happy to learn this news, but Sam was convinced he’d made the right decision, especially when Martin reported a death that looked to be the work of a vampire.
