Review: Supernatural Season 4, Episode 17: It's a Terrible Life

Oh my goodness, Dean driving a Prius!

I burst out laughing!

Not to mention, the juice cleanse and salads. And the suspenders!

THE SUSPENDERS!

And Sam! Sam doing IT!!!

Oh my goodness, this was such a good episode!

It was so hilarious! Like, these are the episodes of Supernatural that I just adore. It’s always interesting to see what Sam and Dean would be like if they weren’t Winchesters. Although, as we learned, they wouldn’t actually be that different because hunting is in their blood.

Speaking of hunting, the best part of the whole episode was when Dean found the Ghostfacer’s instructional videos online. I was SO HAPPY to see the Ghostfacers again! I just died of joy.

However, I did think that the premise of the episode—that the angel Zachariah wanted to show Sam and Dean that they were, in fact, destined to fight monsters—was silly. I mean, was it really necessary? It seems like a lot of unnecessary trouble. Also, the monster wasn’t particularly interesting. A workaholic ghost? Like, what? The idea of going into work when you’re dead is hellish! Surely, being deceased is a good reason to quit!

Plus, this episode didn’t really advance the main plot line in any way. However, I do think it was necessary because the last episode was so heavy. They needed to do something light and fun to cut the tension.

Anyhow, I don’t mind too much that it didn’t move the plot along. I just like Dean in suspenders.

Rating: 9.5/10

Peaky Blinders: Season 2 Episode 5 Review

STOP EVERYTHING! Grace is back! Oh my goodness, I am over the MOON that Grace and Tommy are an item once again. And, before you tell me that this episode could have been a one night stand, let me tell you that I have seen enough TV shows to know that they did not reintroduce her character just for that. GRACE! I'm so excited. No doubt, their relationship is going to be extremely messy and complicated (because of May and her husband, etc. etc.), but I don't care. First of all, I have to comment on the fact that Tommy has some CONFIDENCE, or, maybe he just knows Grace really well. Like, his whole opening gambit with Grace to skip talking about the past was a bold move, considering she could have walked out at any moment. But, of course, he really just wants to take her out to meet movie stars. It's an interesting reunion, but also kind of sweet? I don't know. I did, however, LOVE that Tommy called Campbell to tell him that he was about to sleep with Grace. Was

Peaky Blinders: Season 4 Episode 5 Review

Where to begin?! I feel like a ton of stuff happened in this episode. I mean, a ton of stuff happens in every episode, but this one was really jam packed. Even so, I still feel like this episode was mostly set up. Everything is building up to the season four finale, which must be really incredible because I can't imagine how they're going to resolve all these plots in just one hour! First of all, I cannot tell you how glad I am that Polly didn't betray Tommy. That's a huge weight off my mind. That does not, however, negate the fact that Michael kind of betrayed Tommy, but I imagine that will be addressed later. Right now, I want to focus on how cool Tommy looked with that machine gun. That's an OG move for sure. On the other hand, I'm beginning to think that Luca is not a very good gangster. Like, he's had a million chances to kill Tommy at this point. Why is he still alive? How have they botched all of these assassination attempts so badly?? Like, the m

Game of Thrones Review: Season 6 Episode 2

Well, I think we can all breathe a collective sigh of relief now that we know that Kit Harrington (aka Jon Snow) will be gracing our screen with his flowing locks of hair and brooding expressions for many episodes to come. In all seriousness, even though I suspected that Jon would be resurrected, I wasn't completely sure because it is, after all, Game of Thrones . (I didn't want to jinx it though, so I did wear my "The North Remembers" t-shirt and paint my nails black in honor of the Night's Watch ( you can follow my nail polish escapades at my beauty blog ).) Favorite Moments: I Prefer Being an Only Child: Hands down, no questions asked, Ramsay Snow/Bolton is the best villain to grace the small screen. Like, I know he murdered his father and fed two people -- including a baby -- to dogs in this episode, but I'm almost thinking "well done -- I thought you couldn't go further, but somehow you did!" I'm almost impressed with his villainy. F
