West, Shahine Ezell, Chris Coy Writer: Michael Peterson, series created by Hart Hanson, based on the life and writings of Kathy Reichs Director: Jeffrey Walker Network: Fox, Mondays @ 8 PM Airdate: March 17, 2014 BONES often has its main characters figuring out something about their personal lives from what they experience on the job, but in “The Repo Man in the Septic Tank,” the elements don’t fit comfortably together. Brennan (Emily Deschanel) comes to an arguable conclusion based on […]Read On »

Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Kristen Hager, Mark Pellegrino, Amy Aquino, Vincent Leclerc, Andreas Apergis Writer: Casey Fisher, adapted for U.S. television by Jeremy Carver & Anna Fricke, created for U.K. television by Toby Whithouse Director: Stefan Pleszcyznski Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: March 10, 2014 Happily, BEING HUMAN doesn’t decide to permanently warp the timeline. Given that we’ve spent three-and-a-half seasons investing in the one already provided, dumping it now would be a cheat of huge proportions. In “Too Far, Fast Forward!” things get set right – though it’s not clear exactly how – and […]Read On »

Stars: Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, A.J. Buckley, Travis Wester, Nicholas Carella, Giovanni Mocibob Writer: Jenny Klein, series created by Eric Kripke Director: Jeannot Szwarc Network: The CW, Tuesdays @ 9 PM Original Airdate: March 4, 2014 SUPERNATURAL is by now deep in angst, mythology and certain kinds of humor. What it has lost over time is any real sense of horror. Surprisingly, “#THINMAN” supplies a jolt of actual creepiness that’s all the more impressive because, for once, there’s nothing supernatural happening. Dean (Jensen Ackles) and Sam (Jared Padalecki) head to a small town in Washington state, where a young woman […]Read On »

Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Kristen Hager, Vincent Leclerc, Sarah Allen, Gianpaolo Venuta, Andreas Apergis, Angela Galuppo Writer: Casey Fisher, adapted for U.S. television by Jeremy Carver & Anna Fricke, created for U.K. television by Toby Whithouse Director: Stefan Pleszcyznski Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: March 3, 2014 You’d think with vampires, werewolves and ghosts already essential features of BEING HUMAN, adding BUTTERFLY EFFECT time travel (actually name-checked here by the characters) might be a bit much, but “Rewind, Rewind” makes it work in a way that is holds our attention. What’s interesting is not how […]Read On »

Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Kristen Hager, Amy Aquino, Connor Price, James A. Woods, Katharine Isabelle, Gianpaolo Venuta, Jesse Rath Writer: Lisa Randolph, adapted for U.S. television by Jeremy Carver & Anna Fricke, created for U.K. television by Toby Whithouse Director: Paolo Barzman Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: February 24, 2014 BEING HUMAN is generally at its best when our main characters – vampire Aidan (Sam Witwer), ghost Sally (Meaghan Rath) and werewolves Josh (Sam Huntington) and Nora (Kristen Hager) – are all together. “Gallows Humor” separates them of necessity, as they’ve all got their own […]Read On »

Stars: Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, Osric Chau, Lauren Tom, Adam J. Harrington, James Immekus Writer: Robert Berens, series created by Eric Kripke Director: Jeremy Wanek Network: The CW, Tuesdays @ 9 PM Original Airdate: February 25, 2014 When hugely likable Prophet of the Lord Kevin Tran (Osric Chau) was murdered by the angel Gadriel, who at the time possessed the body of Sam (Jared Palalecki), it was a horrible blow for the audience, as well as for the Winchester brothers. In the SUPERNATURAL episode “Captives,” we not only get Kevin back – more or less – we get […]Read On »

Almost no sooner than he thinks he’s got control of himself – turning at the full moon and so on – than he wakes up next to fellow married werewolf Wendy […]Read On »

TV Review: SUPERNATURAL – Season 9 – “The Purge”

Stars: Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, Annabelle Acosta, Corey Sevier, Joseph Julian Soria Writers: Eric Charmelo & Nicole Snyder, series created by Eric Kripke Director: Phil Sgriccia Network: The CW, Tuesdays @ 9 PM Original Airdate: February 4, 2014 SUPERNATURAL likes to reference movies in its episode titles, but the moderately gross opening sequence of “The Purge” makes us worry for a little while that the whole thing is going to involve victims vomiting before they perish. Turns out this is just the writers playing into the pun and there’s no more reverse peristalsis in “The Purge,” though the episode does […]Read On »
