Supernatural: LARP and the Real Girl (2013)
Fun episode with sense of zest
In between the more angst-ridden episodes in the recent seasons of Supernatural, this episode comes as a breath of fresh air.
One begins to see how well Sam and Dean work together when the different emotional and relationship problems are firmly placed outside their own friendship and concern for each other.
The setting is fun and ties into the fantasy fan worlds and fans of the series. The story is funny and frantic, containing a couple of gory deaths and the welcome return of an old friend who complements the two brothers. It's great to see Sam and Dean entering into the spirit of the adventure in more ways than one.
Supernatural: Bitten (2012)
Astonishingly powerful episode
A gripping and moving episode, well performed by the actors who take centre stage. This story is, like much of Supernatural, shamelessly derivate, but as ever, with more than a hint of irony. But the story is surprisingly intense and involving.
This is a Winchester-lite episode, but that does not distract from the viewing. It is fairly heavy on comments regarding the slash potential of the leads.
This tragedy has moments of hope and tells a story of three friends in a complex and in intense relationship. In a surprisingly short time the writers allow us to understand the nature of the friendships and this heightens the tension throughout the story
