Mary lies about working with the British Men of Letters so that Sam, Dean, and Cas will come with her and Wally the Red Shirt in hunting a demon. But this is no ordinary demon!

25d ago56:45

56:45

Dean has been hit with a nasty spell from a dying witch and he begins to forget everything he knows, everyone he cares for, and soon how to breathe. It's really funny until it's really sad.

2M ago1:15:52

1:15:52

Lucifer has decided to go bigger and that means getting the President of the United States to say yes!

12.07 - Rock Never Dies 1:09:58

2M ago1:09:58

1:09:58

2M ago58:23

58:23

Sam and Dean learn once again that people can be worse than monsters when they discover a girl with powers she can barely control. We like the episode, hate the British Men of Letters, and how everyone has mommy issues. Like everyone. Patreon Bluesky Instagram Tumblr FacebookBy Matt, PG, & Jess

Watchalong - Love Hurts 51:41

3M ago51:41

51:41

Time for the season 11 watchalong where we get a much-improved episode from the same writing duo from our previous watchalong, but we still have lots of questions for some of the choices (mostly from the awful husband.) Patreon Bluesky Instagram Tumblr FacebookBy Matt, PG, & Jess

4M ago46:24

46:24

God is stepping in to help the boys, but Sam and Dean are convinced they'll need to rescue Lucifer in order to have a chance against Amara. Oh and Metatron is a hero now?

11.20 - Don't Call Me Shurley 56:29

5M ago56:29

56:29

Chuck is back and he's ready to bring his final book. God: An Autobiography. New book means he needs Metatron's help in editing and doesn't seem to care that Amara is going to end the world.

5M ago1:09:37

1:09:37

Sam and Dean just can't find Amara because the writers won't let them. But they will get to take a case that one of them will say isn't a case until it's clear it is a case.

56:55

Everyone is desperate to stop Amara. Crowely, Lucifer, the angels, and even Rowena. (Totally not dead, by the way.)

11.17 - Red Meat 1:06:51

5M ago1:06:51

1:06:51

Sam and Dean take on ANOTHER random case because they have no leads on Amara and the show thinks it can fool us into thinking Sam or Dean will die.
