Review: Supernatural Season 11, Episode 9: O Brother Where Art Thou?

This episode was fantastically weird. The entire time I was watching it, I was thinking “this is such a strange episode.” However, it was also fantastically good! 

First of all, I think we need to talk about Dean and Amara’s relationship. They have got some kind of bond that I absolutely cannot understand in any way. It’s both fascinating and also sort of weird and disturbing. However, it’s much less disturbing now that Amara has an adult body and isn’t a little girl anymore. 

Speaking of Amara, she is REALLY getting scary. If lightning strikes and water turning into blood wasn’t bad enough, killing those angels certainly was. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that God’s sister has that much power, but it is freaky to see someone destroy angels so easily. (Not that I’m the biggest fan of angels or anything like that).

On the flip side, Rowena was the biggest ray of sunshine in this episode. She really does make every episode that she’s in awesome. I loved watching her crush on Lucifer in this episode. I guess it makes total sense that a witch would be in love with the prince of darkness, but it was still weirdly adorable that she was swooning over Lucifer. 

Speaking of Lucifer, how is it possible that he continues to make Sam’s life so miserable almost six seasons later? I really thought that we were done with Lucifer tricking Sam, but I guess I was wrong about that!

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT HE’S BACK IN THE CAGE! I almost can’t stand it. As much as I’m often annoyed by Sam, no one deserves that. The idea that Lucifer managed to convince Sam that God was talking to him just makes me so angry. I’m assuming that he’s going to be possessed by Lucifer any minute now, and then the boys will spend all of season twelve trying to get him out. 

On the bright side, I think that Lucifer will be really helpful in getting rid of Amara (at least, I hope so).

Rating: 8/10

Peaky Blinders: Season 2 Episode 1 Review

Okay, I cannot tell a lie, I was not the biggest fan of this episode. Like, don't get me wrong, it's still Peaky Blinders , so it's automatically better than like 90% of shows out there, but this was not its best moment. In my opinion, anyway. First of all, I am supremely annoyed by the time jump. Like, I don't mind when shows do time jumps when nothing much happens, but it seemed like a LOT happened here. First of all, Freddie died offscreen?????????? I cannot express to you how much I am NOT okay with that. I'm guessing there was some issue with the actor's contract because I can't imagine that the writers would choose to kill a major character offscreen. Like, that was so un-cool. At the very least, we earned a dramatic death scene and a wake in the Garrison! Also, it appears that Ada and Freddie were living in London. So, if they were okay with that, why did Freddie refuse to leave Birmingham in season one??? I am retroactively frustrated wit

Peaky Blinders: Season 1 Episode 1 Review

So, I have to admit that people have been telling me to watch Peaky Blinders for years, but, somehow, I never got around to it, which is strange because, on the surface,  Peaky Blinders  is everything I like in television. It's a period drama, set in England, with a dark, brooding, leading man; I should love it, right? Well, I'm not sure why I resisted watching it for so long because this show is FAN-TASTIC. I mean, I've only seen the first episode at this point, but I can already tell that it is really and truly wonderful. First of all, where has Cillian Murphy been all my life? How is he like the best actor ever, and I've never heard of him? Maybe he's big in the UK and not so much in the US? Or maybe I've been living under a rock? I don't know. (After I saw him in this show, I did look up his filmography, and I realized that I must have seen him in Girl with a Pearl Earring, In the Heart of the Sea,  and Cold Mountain , but I haven't seen any of

Peaky Blinders: Season 2 Episode 6 Review

Oh my goodness, THE DRAMA! THE D-R-A-M-A. As I was watching this episode, I actually had to pause a couple of times to let the sheer dramatic-ness of the situations wash over me. It was just all so DRAMATIC. Okay, let me take a deep breath, and then we can actually talk about the episode. First things first, Tommy and Grace are getting married! What gift should I send to the wedding, I am so unbelievably happy for them. Well, I think I'm mostly happy for Tommy, but Grace can get a share of that too. At least, I assume they're getting married. Tommy said it out loud, which means it will eventually come true. Although, I'm not sure if Grace knows they're getting married yet. And what are they going to do about that nice man from Poughkeepsie??????? The other problem with this situation is Grace only seemed interested in getting back with Tommy after she knew she was pregnant with his baby. Like, did she not love him before she knew that?? Or, maybe the pregn
