I’m glad you liked the review! Thanks for letting me know, this was one of my favorite ones to write. Poor Ava – she was great while she lasted, eh?

As for the ending you suggest, BITE your tongue! Kripke would never, never, never, never do that to us. Right? RIGHT? Oh man, the thoughts you put in my head! Let’s think about something happy, shall we? Like the fact that Season 4 starts THIS Thursday?

Hope everything is showing up correctly now.

Great review as always. This really got me though because it’s so very true:

“I’ve asked around, and my fangirl peeps to a woman said that if Dean had to kill Sammy, you’d hear one gunshot and less than a minute later you’d hear the second gunshot as Dean used the same gun on himself.”

It’s such a deep, intense relationship that it really does have the potential to turn tragic. And I really wouldn’t put it past Kripke to end the series like that. DAMN YOU KRIPKE YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD!!!

Wanted to let you know that I’ve been trying to get to your recap of “Roadkill”, but all that comes up is a blank page.

We will continue to try, however.

You mentioned that the review of ‘Hunted’ was on hold until an interview with the director was also posted and you’d link them. I searched on PRG for the name “Rachel Talalay”, but nothing came up. I’d be interested in reading this interview.

I know you have no control over the site content, but did it fall through? Or am I not searching hard enough?

Thanks!

I adore Sam. I consider Sam the hero of this particular ep, in spite of the fact that he went off and left Dean without so much as a note. He rescued Dean from an an almost impossible situation, and he dealt beautifully with some really heavy information at the end there. Plus his Samhair was in fine form.

Talk to me.

You know it’s funny, people respond to different reviews in different ways, and no matter what I think of an ep or, personally, of a review I’ve written, the reaction of my readers is
usually surprising. So I’ve learned to take it as it comes, whether it’s tons of responses or few. I enjoy writing them, and if people enjoy reading them, so much the better. Although, Tall Tales, you would have thought that would be everyone’s favorite. Ah well. : D

I have my DVD’s on order, they should be here on Saturday. I’ve heard both good and bad
things about the replica. First it’s awesome that there is one, but second, it only has two doors and the plate has the wrong information! At least they tried. I’m looking forward to the gag reel, specifically.

And yeah, season 4! I’m excited, trying to stay spoiler free, and hoping we see an improvement on season 3, which, due to many factors, didn’t rock as hard as season 1 and season 2. From what I’ve heard, the whole team up there in Vancouver is going elbows out to make it their best, and I believe them.

Here’s to season 4!!! Thank you for your readership, I really appreciate it.

Best Regards,

Sylvia

I am so excited about the upcoming season! I am so glad I had an opportunity to get to know you and I am looking forward to reading your reviews of the episodes in season 4.

As always, you rock!

I can’t believe I wasn’t able to drop by yesterday.

I am glad to see you had visitors this week. I think I was the only person who left a comment last week. I guess most fans love the darker episodes. Anyway, I haven’t seen this episode in several years so I can’t comment on the episode but I did love Ava and I was glad she came back in a later in Season 2.

BTW – I picked up my Season 3 DVD set yesterday. Best Buy had a replica of the impala as part of the set. It is kinda of cool.

Take care
Joan

I love being told I’m awesome, thank you! And thanks for coming by and reading, and
letting me know. Until next time!

Sylvia

I am so glad you liked the review, sorry to have kept you waiting, you weren’t alone in that because apparently this ep is a favorite of very many a fangirl! All the scenes you mention are great, the dynamic tension going on between the brothers is amazing! My fave, I’ll confess, is the “bitch” “jerk” exchange at the end. : D But yeah, the thumb scene is like crack!

Best Regards,

Sylvia

I agree that the opening confrontation scene between the boys is magnetic. JA does his usual stellar job – he makes Dean’s anguish so very palpable.

I have personally rewound “the thumb scene” innumerable times, like millions of other fangirls, I’m sure. That scene is like crack.
