Supernatural: Season 2, Episode 12: “Nightshifter”
Directed by Phil Sgriccia Written by Ben Edlund Ben Edlund’s voice quickly became an extremely important one in the Supernatural writing staff. The writing staff bring different sensibilities to the table, one of the reasons why the show has such … Continue reading
Supernatural: Season 2, Episode 11: “Playthings”
Directed by Charles Beeson Written by Matt Witten “Playthings” was the first episode directed by Charles Beeson, and the guy had a field day with it. What a fun episode. A director’s dream. The “homage” episodes are pleasing on a … Continue reading
Supernatural: Season 2, Episode 10: “Hunted”
Directed by Rachel Talalay Written by Raelle Tucker Let’s take a moment to note the first female director of the series (it is her only episode). Talalay does her best with a script that is all over the place. Gordon … Continue reading
Supernatural: Season 2, Episode 9: “Croatoan”
Directed by Robert Singer Written by John Shiban Robert Singer is one of my favorite directors of the series. He prioritizes the personal. He casts really well, and he works with actors (the leads and the bit parts) in a … Continue reading

Supernatural: Season 2, Episode 6: “No Exit”
Directed by Kim Manners Written by Matt Witten “So this is hell. I’d never have believed it. You remember all we were told about the torture-chambers, the fire and brimstone, the “burning marl.” Old wives’ tales! There’s no need for … Continue reading

Supernatural: Season 2, Episode 4: “Children Shouldn’t Play With Dead Things”
Directed by Kim Manners Written by Raelle Tucker While Sam is pretending to be a grief counselor, he says, “Grief makes people do crazy things.” Indeed. That’s what these early episodes of Season 2 are all about. Gordon blew the … Continue reading
Supernatural: Season 2, Episode 3: “Bloodlust”
Directed by Robert Singer Written by Sera Gamble Gordon (the phenomenal Sterling K. Brown) enters the action, bringing with him one of my favorite arcs in the entire series. Gordon brings with him ambiguity about things we have been led … Continue reading
