Supernatural
is in it’s 10th season. This
show has been on since my daughter was a baby.
Apparently they’re doing something right….and in this episode it seems
like they’re going back to their roots:
saving people, hunting things…the family business. And I like it.
As much as
I’ve enjoyed watching Supernatural over the years, there are certain story
lines that I’ve enjoyed less than others.
While I adore Misha Collins, and the angels have given us a lot of good
episodes…I really miss the beginnings of the show. The roots.
Driving around in the Impala, hunting monsters, and eating pie. Because who doesn’t fantasize about that
lifestyle? And about eating that much
pie and not weighing a ton?
(Side
note: Mark Shepherd is awesome too. How can you be a sci-fi fan and not love that
man?)
But Paper
Moon brought us back to those roots. It
also gave us a glimpse of the brothers’ old relationship. Underneath all of the bullshit, they’re still
just two brothers looking out for each other.
I miss that too. Over the past
few years their relationship has gotten too complicated.
The question
on everyone’s minds, however, is what does this mean for the show? Is it simply a nod to the show’s roots? Or are the writer’s purposefully focusing
back on the show’s roots? And if so….is
this the beginning of the end? Because
taking the show back to it’s roots would be a nice way to wrap it all up in a
little bow, wouldn’t it?
