Supernatural: Lucifer Rising

The Last Temptation of Whatshisname
by Sylvia Bond
Supernatural Episode Review, Season 4, Episode 22
“Lucifer Rising”

It’s been a while since I’ve been creeped out enough to want to turn off the TV, but that was my reaction within five minutes of this ep, and it was only the teaser for crying out loud. In it, a priest is doing some priestly thing, and gets possessed. Shortly thereafter, a bunch of nuns are sitting and praying, and the possessed priest locks the door and starts hacking into them with a butcher knife from the kitchen. There was blood, and screaming, and at the end it was a slaughter that left nun bits everywhere. Which left the nunnery well-prepared for more dark doings.  read more »

Supernatural: When the Levee Breaks

The Art of Dark Circles and Samhair
by Sylvia Bond
Supernatural Episode Review – Season 4, Episode 21
“When the Levee Breaks”

This ep is full of questions, unanswerable and totally diverting. Why did the Soap Angel let Sam go, especially after he got Dean to sign up for the angels’ big project? And what is that Skank Ruby up to? My friend from Alaska and I have a wager going as to whether or not that Skank Ruby is acting on behalf of Lucifer. Especially in light of the Sunday school story she told, about the First Demon and all, it seems to me that Sam is the one being groomed for this, and so, thusly, my friend in Alaska is totally going to loose this wager.  read more »

Supernatural: The Rapture

The End of Innocence
by Sylvia Bond
Supernatural Episode Review – Season 4, Episode 20
“The Rapture”

To me this was a Sam episode. Not a Samhair episode, though there was lots of that to sigh over, but a Sam episode. Yes, I do realize there were other characters abounding, most notably Sam’s older brother. But for me, this ep was about Sam. The younger son. The baby of the family. The guy with the birthday in May. Astrology sign of Taurus. Tall. Handsome. Fabulous hair. Green eyes. Sweet smile and gorgeous dimples. Manly shoulders and a voice that could sing Grendel to sleep. Remember Sam? The guy who’s story we’ve been given such a paucity of so as to render him almost invisible? Yes. Him. Sadly, Show mucked about for most of the ep wasting time telling someone else’s story, namely that of the Soap Angel.  read more »
