If kids ran the world, then fairy tales would come true! On other TV shows, that might be a great thing, but on Supernatural, you know it means some bloody Nightmare before Halloween type scenarios for Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles).
Supernatural episode 5.06 “I Believe the Children Are Our Future” airs on Thursday, October 15 at 9pm EST/PST on the CW. Listen in next week to Tuning in to Sci Fi TV for our in-depth conversation about this episode; and join in the discussion.
Check below out a teaser clip from this week’s episode. Spoilers!
Supernatural’s Apocalypse is bubbling but everyone’s off on their own paths. Castiel (Misha Collins) went to draft God onto special teams. Sam Winchester (Jared Padalecki) took a time out. Will Sam face his issues or freely indulge his darkside? Can our antihero with great hair turn his curse into something good? Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) is soldiering on alone, but even a reluctant leader needs more than his steel horse and a PSA from Marlo Thomas.
A spoilery clip from Supernatural episode 5.03 “Free to Be You and Me” follows the break, plus a link to Eric Kripke discussing a few upcoming episodes. Read more »
Winchester Family Business - the Supernatural guide to demon hunting (and fishing)
Contains spoilers through Supernatural Episode 5.02 “Good God, Y’All.”
This episode opens with the sobering sight of Bobby in a wheelchair, the obvious first casualty in the apocalyptic war. Everyone else in his hospital room is carrying scars too. Castiel was reborn, but he’s lost some of his mojo and cannot heal Bobby. He can’t even find the Winchesters without using a cell phone. When Dean laughs at his plan to draft God onto the team, Castiel airs his grievences – he had to kill two of his angel brothers, he’s cut off from Heaven. He lost everything for nothing since Dean failed to stop Sam and they didn’t save the world. Castiel figures God resurrected him and put the guys on the Soul Plane, so God can actually make a dent with Lucifer. Castiel borrows Dean’s amulet to use as a God EMF and disappears to locate God.
Dean’s still carrying his distrust of Sam when they start the job to help other hunters save a town overrun by demons. After killing two people he thinks are demons, Sam’s thirst for demonblood and power gets reawakened. Sam admits to Dean that he’s dangerous. Dean agrees that worrying about Sam is effecting how he can do his job right. They part ways, presumably to lick their wounds. Read more »
It’s another Supernatural Thursday! The days of miracle and wonder roll on as the angels versus demons war slouches towards Bethlehem.
Team Winchester battles on the front lines again this week when they join up with some old allies to save an imperiled town. But things may not be what they seem. Those demons (and angels) are tricky.
A preview clip for Supernatural episode 5.02 “Good God Ya’ll” and links to other preview clips follow the break.
Contains spoilers for Supernatural Episode 5.01 “Sympathy for the Devil.”
The days of miracle and wonder start with Lucifer’s arriving white light. Sam and Dean Winchester were nearly thunderstruck by Lucifer’s arriving beam but Somebody put them on a Soul Plane to safety.
Our heroes searched for answers but Zachariah and Meg kept dogging Dean for his sword. Castiel was smited into chunky soup but Somebody brought him back to save Team Winchester. Meanwhile Lucifer’s beam circled Nick, his intended vessel. Nick’s grief and anger gave him too much sympathy with Lucifer’s daddy issues. But Dean had no sympathy for Sammy’s betrayal with that demon Ruby.
Supernatural - Episode 4.08 “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester”
November 2 is All Soul’s Day. In the Catholic religion, it’s a holy day of obligation. The faithful pray for departed friends and family so the souls in purgatory will pass on to heaven. November 2 is also the day that Sam Winchester lost two people he loved. When he was six months old, Azazel came into his nursery to collect on the deal Mary Winchester made with him 10 years before in exchange for John Winchester’s life. Azazel paid his visit, feeding baby Sam demon blood. Mary interrupted Azazel’s work though, so he burned her up on the ceiling for interfering. Twenty-two years later, Sam returns from a demon hunting trip with his brother Dean to find his girlfriend Jessica on the ceiling and then engulfed in flames the same way Mary died.
Sam has yet another awful Halloween as he and his brother Dean have to save a town from the demon behind Halloween or the angels will wipe the town off the map. And the Great Pumpkin is a no-show. Again.

Witches have a hard go of it everywhere. Remember those witches in Oz who were so mad to wear the enchanted ruby slippers? Wear those shoes too long, and a house falls on you, or a bucket of water melts your sister. Then some whiny Dorothy steals the family shoes!
The Ruby shoes, er meatsuits, on Supernatural have a similarly tough gig. What’s a misfit demongirl to do when she just won’t forget her humanity? Does she take the rebel road and play the Good Witch when her wicked sisters won’t invite her in to hell’s heavy clambakes? How’s a Good Witch fit in with the evil doer in-crowd? Maybe Ruby’s not a bad evil thing; maybe she’s just drawn and shoed that way.
You Son of a Bitch
What a feast of sweets in this scrumptious episode! After such large slices of delicious pie and brownies, one can only suspect that Eric Kripke is cheating. Actually, Jeremy Carver, the Writer of this episode is the cheat. Nearly everything he prepared tasted so good, went down so easy, with such generous portions, that it’s hard to be too upset about the cheating. Almost. Read more »
Dean Winchester just wants one piece of pie. He’s not specific as to type, but a slice of good ol’ American cherry pie would probably do the trick. Dean’s been looking so hard for pie, he’s falling asleep without bothering to put on his jammies these days. His brother Sam Winchester (Jared Padalecki) is so lost in his dark knight work that he doesn’t bother to tuck his brother under the covers before skulking off with that Slutty Yoda. Read more »
