**This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!**
“I will play. I won’t quit…”
All Fun and Games released on Demand on September 1st 2023. The supernatural horror film stars Natalia Dyer, Asa Butterfield, Laurel Marsden, and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth. It runs for approximately an hour and sixteen minutes.
A group of teens discover a cursed knife in Salem, which unleashes a demon that forces them to play childhood games until they die.
Here is the trailer:
All Fun and Games has a spooky premise with a decent cast, but does the film do enough to earn a watch?Let’s find out…
The Pros:

Good cast.
Natalia Dyer was the main reason why I tuned into this one and she did a good job with her character. The rest of the cast did a decent job too with what they were given, elevating this film as much as they could. There were characters to root for and some that seemed filler, but overall the cast delivered.
The second half was better than the first…
Luckily this film was on the short side or I may have tuned out sooner, but thankfully things picked up steam in the second half. There were some slasher vibes that worked and when everyone started playing the games and working together, it flowed much better.
The Cons:
Images courtesy of Vertical
Silly, watered down scares.
I didn’t jump once. This film was not scary at all and the demons were so ridiculous and laughable at times. I know it’s difficult to instill a sense of dread and fear in films, but it seemed like we needed a lot more effort in this area, which could have made this a much more satisfying watch.
Annoying voice-over narrations.
Luckily they didn’t take over the film, but they added nothing to it and they started explaining things to the audience that didn’t make logical sense. I’m assuming this was just to fill time since the film was already on the short side, but wow these were bad.
So am I in or out?
Images courtesy of Vertical
I’m 50/50 on this one…
I’m in for Natalia Dyer, but this film was cheesy and uninspiring for the most part. I wouldn’t say that you need to rush to see this one, but there were a few glimmers of potential wedged into the middle.

DON’T TAKE THE JOB…
It was only supposed to be temporary…but when Olivia Crewe accepts a new position that seems too good to be true, she soon discovers that twelve other girls previously had the same job as her. Only none of them lasted for more than thirty days. No notice. Nothing…right before they mysteriously disappeared without a trace.

“It’s called the Book of the Dead for a reason…”
Evil Dead Rise released in theaters on April 21st 2023. The latest entry to the Evil Dead franchise stars Lily Sullivan, Alyssa Sutherland, Nell Fisher, Gabrielle Echols, and Morgan Davies.
Beth goes to visit her sister and her family when a sinister evil is unleashed upon them, threatening to kill them all off one by one.
Here is the trailer:
Evil Dead Rise brings one of the greatest horror franchises back to life again with shocking gore and truly disturbing moments. Is it worthy of your next watch?Let’s find out…
The Pros:
Images courtesy of Warner Bros. Pictures
Does the franchise proud!
The Evil Dead franchise is one of my favorites of all time and I think it successfully launched a remake in 2013 that kept fans satisfied while creating something new and terrifying in the process. Well, the latest 2023 entry goes even further and presents us with a chilling and sinister film that flawlessly channels the original films while unleashing a new evil upon us that was an absolute joy to watch on the big screen.
The gore was out of this world, the scenes were each more terrifying than the next, and that title card will probably haunt me for years to come…
Images courtesy of Warner Bros. Pictures
Electrifying performances.
Our two main leads were bad-ass and then some! Alyssa Sutherland was so shockingly amazing as a deadite and may be the most terrifying one of all time…
I absolutely loved the character of Beth as well and thought she really rocked the blood-soaked look with flair. There was pure magic between these characters and I was rooting for all of them in different ways.
The Cons:

I don’t have any…
A flawless masterpiece!!!
Seriously, the pacing was on point, the scenes were all so captivating and stunning to watch unfold, and the terrifying moments were truly extraordinary.
So am I in or out?
Images courtesy of Warner Bros. Pictures
I’m in 1000 percent!!!
Chilling, gory, and wickedly entertaining!
I’ve been so incredibly excited to watch this film and it did not disappoint! What are you waiting for? See this on the big screen if you can!

Happy Saturday TV fans! After watching The CW’s Supernatural season 15 episode 17, I remembered that “we don’t give up on family.”
Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet.
In episode 17, “Unity,” Sam and Dean continue to view things differently on how to ultimately take down Chuck. Meanwhile, Castiel helps Sam discover the truth while Dean and Jack have a heart-to-heart chat.
My top 5 moments from Supernatural season 15 episode 17 are:
5
“You ever get tired of saying stuff like that?”
Sam and Dean are still having some issues when it comes to Jack’s involvement in their plan. Dean continues to remind Sam that this is the only way, but Sam is not going to stay quiet on this one.
Sam tells Dean that he is not going with them, but Dean loses his temper and reminds him that Jack is not part of their family. Of course Jack overhears, which was heartbreaking to see, but it looks like Jack is ready to continue with his sacrifice to help save the world anyway.
4
“True balance.”
Meanwhile, Amara agrees to Dean’s terms, reminding him that they will always help each other. Amara and Chuck meet up and she tries to get him to remember why he loved this world in the first place.
Images courtesy of The CW
Chuck initially seems pleased by his fans, but the novelty wears off pretty quickly. Amara is not discouraged; however, as she takes him to the bunker and ends up trapping him there.
She tells Chuck that she can hold him long enough, but we know that Chuck always has something else up his sleeve…
3
“I need to say thank you.”
After Dean and Jack track down Adam and Jack passes his test with flying colors, he has what they need to complete the ritual. Once Jack absorbs it, he will not be able to stop it so they better be ready to go…
Images courtesy of The CW
On the car ride back, Dean admits to his mistake from earlier and tells Jack that he wants to thank him for everything he is doing. He is giving him and Sam a real chance to have a normal life and I was glad that Dean finally let his wall down for just a moment to let Jack know this.
Whether Dean wants to admit it or not, Jack is their family, but maybe he doesn’t see it right now.
I think that’s all about to change…
2
“We have to stop it.”
Sam and Castiel work together, hoping that there is some other way so that they can save Jack. They know they need to contact Billie, but Sam can’t die to do so. Of course, they now remember that there is a key hidden in the bunker and after some investigating, they find it.
Images courtesy of The CW
I thought it was actually really cool when Sam opened up the door in the wall, which could almost be its own separate adventure for him and Castiel.
When Sam walks through, he encounters Meg…or The Empty posing as Meg. Sam learns that this is all a power play and that Billie wants to take Chuck’s place so that she can return things to where they belong. But this would mean that old friends would die, demons would go back to hell and so on.
Always good to see you Meg!
1
“You always have a choice.”
Jack and Dean arrive with perfect timing, but Sam tries to get him to stop and listen to reason. Dean tells him that he has to stop Chuck, but Sam delivers an extremely touching speech once again.
Dean finally comes to his senses, but they may be too late. Amara learns the truth about Dean’s intentions and agrees to let Chuck consume her…or join with him…not too clear on that. Basically it looks like Chuck has shattered the balance and now contains both of their entities.
He blows open the door and tells the brothers that this was his plan all along, proving to constantly be one step ahead of our favorite heroes.
Chuck tells Sam and Dean to have fun watching Jack die before he disappears, leaving Jack ready to explode…talk about a cliffhanger.
Only three episodes left!
Stay tuned SPN Family!

My new supernatural thriller Girl Number Thirteen releases on November 12th 2020! Available for pre-order! I hope you enjoy!
Happy Friday TV fans! After watching The CW’s Supernatural season 15 episode 16, I learned that sometimes facing your past is easier said than done…but some things do come back full circle.
Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet.
In episode 16, “Drag Me Away (From You)” Sam and Dean travel out to a funeral for an old friend, giving us glimpses into their past and a new case to solve. Meanwhile, Billie takes a brief moment to check in with Dean about the fate of the world.
My top 5 moments from Supernatural season 15 episode 16 are:
5
“Did you tell Sam yet?”
As Sam and Dean head out on a road trip to reunite with their old friend, Sam asks Dean about Castiel. Dean plays it cool, but we see a text from Castiel asking: “Did you tell Sam yet?”
This answers my question from last week’s episode where I was wondering if Castiel would tell the brothers the truth about Jack’s fate. It looks like he told Dean, but I’m guessing Dean wanted to be the one to tell his younger brother.
You can’t keep things from Sammy forever though…
4
“Why do you want us here?”
Apparently you can’t check into room 214 at Rooster’s Sunrise Motel without bumping into an undead monster or two…
We witness a disturbing encounter with a character named Travis, who ends up being murdered by some kind of spirit with a broken bottle. Ouch!
Travis’s sister, Caitlin, calls Sam and Dean, realizing that something is not quite right about what happened and says it wasn’t suicide. Perhaps this is the distraction they need. Oh and it gives us a chance to witness some flashbacks of Sam and Dean.

3
“You’ve changed…”
Images courtesy of The CW
Caitlin and Dean actually have a really sweet history. I absolutely adored the vending machine scene and now I want to see if that trick actually works. Don’t get me into trouble Dean!
Dean tries to tell Caitlin that perhaps Travis really did take his own life, claiming he killed the evil being many years ago. Caitlin recognizes that Dean has changed, reminding him that he believed Travis right away so many years ago.
Perhaps Dean needs to take a moment to believe and remember who he used to be. He might need to embrace that glimmer of hope that he has pushed back down for so many years to win the ultimate battle.
2
“When he comes, there won’t be a moment to waste.”
Billie takes a quick opportunity to interrupt this flashback centered episode, revealing to Dean that all of the worlds are basically gone except for their own.
There will be no time to spare and there are only four episodes left, but is there another way to stop Chuck without losing Jack?
We’ll have to wait and see.
Thanks for the update, Billie!
1
“We don’t get a choice.”
After taking out the undead spirit for real this time by smashing the ring, Sam and Dean head out after saying goodbye to Caitlin. I have to say that I wouldn’t mind a Goonies inspired younger Sam and Dean prequel spin-off…just saying!
On the car ride home, Dean finally tells Sam about Jack and Sam is beyond upset.
Images courtesy of The CW
The flashback seems even more important now since we witnessed a conversation about Sam wanting to go to college and Dean telling him that monster hunting was their true purpose. Sam is tired of Dean making choices for him.
There is clearly a divide between the two brothers and it really got me thinking about another theory. We know that Chuck and Amara represent a balance (light and dark).
Is it possible that Sam and Dean will somehow take their places and maintain balance in the world once again?
It’s a theory I have been pondering for a while, but we still have a few episodes left.
Stay tuned SPN Family!

A harmless night of fun turns deadly for six college friends but the game has only just begun. Take a mystery thrill ride right from your own living room. Dash and Seek is out now! I hope you enjoy!
Happy Sunday TV fans! After watching The CW’s Supernatural season 15 episode 15, I learned that a “highway to heaven but like with murder” spin-off might not be such a bad idea after all.
Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet.
In episode 15, “Gimme Shelter” Castiel and Jack team up to investigate a case while Sam and Dean take a road trip to Atlantic City to find Amara.
My top 5 moments from Supernatural season 15 episode 15 are:
5
“Can we wear matching ties?”
Castiel doesn’t seem initially thrilled to be teamed up with Jack, but Jack’s excitement is contagious. While investigating some religious deaths at a shelter, Jack puts his skills to the test and even shows off that he “graduated from CSI.”
Images courtesy of The CW
The humor was needed here to break up some of the heavy moments we have been getting and we even get a Baby Yoda reference thrown in!
More please!
4
“We knew there was gonna be a catch.”
It’s not all fun and games as Sam and Dean take a moment to catch up on their quest during the car ride. They know that they are the messengers, but they will need to trick Amara in order for their plan to work.
We get a big discussion about the balance of things and know that Amara and Chuck represent light and darkness. Both will need to be stopped, but all of this talk of splitting into two had me thinking about the ultimate fate of the Winchesters as well…
We’ll have to see how this plays out.
3
“I do know what blind faith is.”
I have to admit that Castiel truly touched me in this episode. I’ve talked before about the transformation of Castiel’s character over the seasons and we get another real glimpse of it in this episode when Castiel stands before the group at the shelter to talk about his spiritual journey.
Images courtesy of The CW
Castiel explains that he used to just follow orders, but he changed and found a family and became a father. He rediscovered his faith and also learned about his true purpose. This was probably one of the most vulnerable and real moments I have ever witnessed for Castiel and it got me wondering again about how The Empty said Castiel would be taken when he experiences that moment of true bliss.
Fatherhood is clearly the key and I’m starting to wonder if Castiel will somehow take Jack’s place and sacrifice himself…
2
“Why did you bring her back?”
Amara finds Sam and Dean way too easily, but decides she wants to grab a snack, especially since she hasn’t ever tried a Pennsylvania Pierogi before.
There is a lot of shop talk, but Dean does ask an important question, wondering why Amara brought Mary back.
Amara explains that she wanted Dean to be able to move on with his life and experience Mary as a real person to replace the ideal/fantasy of her, which she considered to be a gift.
I actually thought this was extremely important for Dean because we know that he has been holding on to this pain. In the end, Dean asks Amara if she will help them and she agrees to think it over, but it seems like he has every intention of still betraying her even after their heart-to-heart conversation.
1
“This is the only way they’ll ever forgive me…”
At the very end of the episode, Jack reveals that the plan to stop God and Amara will ultimately kill him. He is basically a bomb that will go off to destroy them, but he will not survive.
Castiel refuses to let him do this, but Jack reminds him that it is his choice and that it’s the only way Sam and Dean will ever forgive him for killing Mary.
Images courtesy of The CW
We’ve seen Castiel and the brothers keep secrets before, but at the end, Castiel says that there is something Sam and Dean need to know. Is he going to tell them about what will happen to Jack or is he going to tell them something else? I’m hoping he goes with the truth because we’ve seen these secrets destroy their bond before.
I keep coming back to Castiel somehow taking Jack’s place in the end, but we still have 5 more episodes left.

“City of Angels…I’ve missed you.”
Lucifer follows the devil himself, who decides to take a vacation on earth while teaming up with Detective Chloe Decker to solve crimes. The show is extremely popular and a fan favorite. Season 5 will feature 16 episodes in total. Part 1 premiered on August 21st 2020 with eight new episodes (approximately 55-60 minutes in length). The show stars Tom Ellis, Lauren German, Kevin Alejandro, D.B. Woodside, and Lesley Ann-Brandt.
Lucifer has certainly been through Hell and back (literally) over the seasons and we have also witnessed an epic kind of will-they-won’t-they love between him and Chloe. We know that Lucifer has been confirmed for a final season 6, but season 5 looks like it will be jam-packed with quite a lot.
Here is the trailer:
Lucifer Season 5 Part 1 gives us everything we have been waiting for and more. We get fun episodes, a new villain, and several twists and reveals that will have you on the edge of your seat.
But, has Luciferseason 5 part 1 done enough to measure up to its previous seasons? Let’s find out…
The Pros:
Images courtesy of Netflix
Standout Episodes.
Lucifer joins veteran shows like Charmed, Supernatural, and It‘s Always Sunny in Philadelphia with a super entertaining noir episode that is just brilliantly done. We get spectacular musical performances, a twist that continues the plot, and more.
This may be one of my favorite episodes yet. I thought that season 5 did a good job overall of providing us with some truly great standalone episodes.
The Ladies Night out that was teased a while back was also truly fantastic!
Images courtesy of Netflix
More please!
Supporting characters get the development they deserve.
Maze is my favorite character on the show so I was truly happy to see her get some much needed screen time. Her character goes through quite the journey on the show, which was needed.
Other supporting characters like Linda, Ella, and Dan also finally get the chance to become more than just one of the gang. We saw some really vulnerable moments for all of them and I really appreciated the attention to this.
Images courtesy of Netflix
The moments we have been waiting for have arrived.
I won’t be listing any spoilers in this review, but let’s just say that some of the moments we have been anxiously waiting for have finally arrived and…wow!
Enjoy them!!!!!
The Cons:
Images courtesy of Netflix
We need more episodes!
Seriously, the only con I can come up with is that we have to wait for Part 2 to be released. We don’t know when that will be as of yet, but it’s safe to say that it will be in 2021 since production had to be halted during the pandemic.
So am I in or out?
Images courtesy of Netflix
I think it’s safe to say that I’m in 100 percent!!!!!
Season 5 may be my favorite season yet! Every episode got better and better. The plot kept you on the edge of your seat the entire time and the reveals were beyond amazing. I can’t wait for new episodes!!!!!!
I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Lucifer season 5 part 1 in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

One girl destined to fight against the demons of the world. Sound familiar? The premise screams Buffy the Vampire Slayer with religious undertones, which instantly sparked my attention, but sometimes a comparison is not always a good thing.
Warrior Nun premiered on Netflix on July 2nd 2020. It features10 episodes (approximately 45-48 minutes in length). It stars Alba Baptista, Toya Turner, Emilio Sakraya, and Thekla Reuten.
Based on the manga style comic book character, Warrior Nun Areala, the show focuses on Ava. After waking up in a morgue, she discovers that she is far from dead and now possesses supernatural abilities as the chosen Halo Bearer. She faces new threats and demons while also searching for her own identity along the way.
Right away, I was completely hooked by the premise. The trailer was actually quite good and I’m all for a show that features a strong female character taking on the apocalypse, but does Warrior Nundo enough to make it stand out from its predecessors? Let’s find out…
The Pros:
Images courtesy of Netflix
Delightful performances.
Standout performances go to Alba Baptista as Ava and Toya Turner as Shotgun Mary. They are believable and they really helped me connect more with these particular characters. There is subtle humor and sarcasm going on mixed with some real life altering scenarios, which gave us a good balance throughout the show.
These nuns kick ass!
The fight scenes may seem slightly ridiculous. They are flashy and unrealistic, but they are also really entertaining and they kept the pace going. If you’re a Chosen One, I want to see some bad-ass fight scenes and Warrior Nun certainly delivered with that.
The Cons:
Images courtesy of Netflix
Awkward voiceover narration.
I get it. We are trying to connect with Ava and learn more about her past to truly appreciate and understand what she has to deal with now. However, the voiceover narrations were awkward and out of place. They actually made Ava seem more whiny than she actually is and I could have done without them.
Too many episodes.
There are ten episodes and I think this show really could have been done in eight. When you have that many episodes, it really slows things down. There was unneeded fluff that made me lose interest several times throughout the show, which is a shame. Sometimes less is more…
This show is NOT Buffy.
I’ve seen multitple comparisons going on between this show and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. While I can absolutely see the similarities and noticed some myself, this show is nothing like Buffy, which is in a category of its own. I think this actually hurt the show because it just falls flat in comparison. On its own, the show actually has a lot of redeeming qualities, but I’m not sure it will be able to break through these comparisons.
So am I in or out?
Images courtesy of Netflix
I’m in…about 75 percent. Overall, this show was pretty entertaining. I liked the premise. I liked the characters and I loved the kick-ass fighting scenes. Once I got over the disappointment that this show would not be in the same category as Buffy, I started to enjoy it more…especially once I got to episode 4.
That being said, there is a lot slowing down the pace of this series and the exceptional premise falls flat in several areas, but there is still enough substance and heart in this show. If you are looking for a supernatural type of binge-watch, I would recommend watching The Order before Warrior Nun, but there is certainly enough to enjoy throughout your watch.
I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Warrior Nun in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Happy Wednesday TV Fans! After recently completing my first full watch of Lucifer, I have to admit that I am beyond obsessed. I can’t wait for Netflix to release the season 5 premiere date and I am already ranking Lucifer as one of my favorite series of all time.
Seriously, it’s so good! I highly recommend it!
One of the reasons why I love Lucifer so much is because of the wonderful musical numbers. Tom Ellis is absolutely brilliant and fantastic and somehow turns some already epic songs into unique and timeless renditions. At first I was slightly skeptical about the musical numbers, but I quickly adapted and welcomed them on the show.
The showstopping numbers are entertaining on their own, but I love how some of the performances truly highlight some key moments on the show and even elevate them to something even greater.
Tom Ellis is born to perform, but I also was surprised and impressed by some of the supporting cast members as well, who should think about performing more often.
The performances somehow mirror our own moods, which is not always easy to do. Shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Charmed did a fantastic job with this previously, but it’s difficult to seamlessly throw in musical numbers and Lucifer just makes it look effortless.
I’m hoping that we eventually get a full musical episode and perhaps we can see something like that in season 5 if we’re lucky, but for today, I am going to be ranking my top 5 songs performed on the series so far.
**Please note some spoilers are ahead if you are not up to date on the series.**
Without any further delay, let’s get to my list!
My Top 5 Songs Performed on Lucifer are:
5
Luck Be A Lady
Song featured in Season 3, episode 6. Performed by Lucifer, featuring Ella!
In this episode, Lucifer and Ella head to Vegas to track down Candy. The team-up between Lucifer and Ella is hilarious on its own and they really make quite the duo! Ella looks absolutely stunning in her dress, but she also shares the stage with Lucifer during this performance.
Tom Ellis channels his Frank Sinatra with flair, but adding in Ella as one of the “Morningstar” backup dancers makes this number truly stand out. Hit him with your feather boa again, girl!
4
I Will Survive
Song featured in Season 3, episode 17. Performed by Axara and Lucifer.
After a pop singer’s life is in danger, she is supposed to remain on lockdown while the police figure this out, but Axara loves the spotlight and decides to perform to keep herself occupied. Only, Lucifer decides to stop the performance, but Axara refuses, forcing Lucifer to grab the microphone and…join in on the song.
The words actually match up with Lucifer trying to get Axara to leave, which is beyond hilarious and Axara may have just been outperformed by the original diva, Lucifer!
3
Eternal Flame
Song featured in Season 2, episode 14. Performed by Lucifer. Sings to Chloe.
After making fun of Chloe’s playlist, Lucifer takes things one step further. Chloe is trying to make her way through a club during an investigation and Lucifer decides to get on stage and dedicate one of her favorite songs to her.
This moment is beyond sweet and adorable and Chloe’s reaction is everything in the crowd.
Later on in the series, we get to witness Chloe and Lucifer slow dancing to “Only You,” which is another one of my favorite moments, but Lucifer’s performance absolutely deserves a spot on our list today.
2
Wonderwall
Song featured in Season 4, episode 9. Performed by Maze. Sings to Eve.
“Wonderwall” is already one of my favorite songs and happens to be performed on my absolute favorite series of all time, Lost. So, it’s safe to say that I have very high expectations here.
However, when Maze (my favorite character) decides to take a leap of faith and show a “grand gesture” to reveal her feelings to Eve, this song took on new meaning for me.
Maze’s performance is soulful and beautiful. Part of the reason why I love this performance so much is because we know that Maze rarely shows her vulnerability and she lets it all out in the open here, exposing her heart and reminding us that perhaps this demon really does have a soul after all…
Some honorable mentions before revealing my number one pick are:
All Along the Watchtower (Season 2, episode 1)
Sinnerman (Season 1, episode 6)
Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door (Season 1, episode 9)
Drum roll please…
1
Creep
Song featured in Season 4, episode 1. Performed by Lucifer.
Tom Ellis is beyond brilliant during this performance. I think I have listened to this rendition a thousand times and may even prefer it to the original song…it’s that good. Part of what makes it so epic is it mirrors Lucifer’s own inner battle. Lucifer is at a breaking point and is trying to figure out who he really is and what his purpose is.
Every single breath he takes and every note makes you sympathize with his struggle, stirring so many emotions at once. This performance truly moves me and showcases just how incredibly talented Tom Ellis is. Perfection…
I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own thoughts and comments on your favorite songs performed on Lucifer. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Happy Tuesday TV fans! After watching The CW’s Supernatural season 15 episode 13, I remembered that being dead tends to never really stick on our favorite show. You could be almost dead or really dead, but there’s always a loophole…
Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet.
In last night’s episode, “Destiny’s Child,” Sam and Dean take a trip down to Hell to find the Occultum. Meanwhile, Castiel decides to take extreme measures to contact an old fan favorite, but she’s not alone…
My top 5 moments fromSupernatural season 15 episode 13 are:
5
“Dean…Sam? Sam…Dean?”
Things get a little confusing when Chuck begins to destroy worlds, as Sam and Dean come face to face with another version of themselves after a rift opens. This Sam and Dean are very different in some ways and reveal that they actually get paid to hunt monsters. Sign me up for Hunter Corp!
When Sam and Dean plan to go down to Hell, they decide to bring the other Sam and Dean into their world to keep up appearances in case Chuck/God checks in on them. Other Sam is sporting a man bun and other Dean likes collared shirts, but they get an interesting day in the life of the real Sam and Dean, bringing us some much needed humor along the way.
Images courtesy of The CW
I’m not sure they should have touched Dean’s car though…
4
“Pray with Sister Jo!”
Sister Jo is back and she’s not alone. We discover that Sam and Dean require something called the occultum in order to face Chuck/God. Sister Jo apparently knows where it is, but claims that Ruby had it last, leading to some welcomed flashbacks of one of our favorite demons.

Ruby apparently stashed the occultum somewhere in Hell, which leads to a field trip that screams trap, but Castiel has a feeling that Sister Jo is withholding some key information.
I loved the scenes between Sister Jo and Ruby and it was fun to see the girls really take over in this episode.

“I don’t feel things the way I used to.”
Jack is also going through quite a lot in this episode as he opens up to Castiel, explaining that he realizes that things have changed since he returned. Jack wonders if Dean will ever forgive him for what happened to Mary and Castiel sheds some light on Dean, really reminding us just how well he knows him.
Dean sometimes runs on a short fuse, but the feelings are always there and he may just need a lot of time to truly work this out.

“Go get her, Pizza Man!”
The pizza man is back! Well, we do get a fun flashback reminder before the episode starts, but The Empty makes a special appearance posing as Meg when Castiel tries to contact Ruby. Jack helps Castiel become “almost dead” so that he can get some answers, but The Empty seems to have an agenda of her own.

Castiel does get to talk to Ruby, who reveals where the occultum is, explaining that it is actually a place. However, she does want something in return. Castiel agrees to find a way to get her out of there, as we are reminded that The Empty is actually quite full.
We know that The Empty is still a threat to Castiel, even though he hasn’t experienced this moment of happiness. However, The Empty is on death’s side, which means that the Winchesters have another enemy to deal with.
I absolutely loved seeing both Meg and Ruby and thought this was a fun way to bring back some of our fan favorites for the last season.
Still waiting on Crowley though…

“Who are you meant to be?”
After heading to the occultum, the guys run into some trouble with hellhounds. Sam tries to keep them out of the church, as Jack decides to swallow the occultum based on the instructions. Jack ends up traveling to “The Garden,” which apparently has not been done in almost forever.
Jack taps into something and when he returns, his soul is back as well. Jack breaks down about what he did to Mary and begs Sam and Dean for forgiveness, which was absolutely heartbreaking to witness.
Jack is back, but he has also traveled to the garden so we don’t know if there are any side effects from this. It’s clear that he is they key to stopping Chuck/God, but will his soul get in the way of him doing what needs to be done?
Stay tuned SPN Family!

Happy Monday TV fans! After watching The CW’s Supernatural season 15 episode 12, I remembered that sometimes less is more, but is canceling shows really the answer to Chuck’s problems?
Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet.
In tonight’s episode, “Galaxy Brain,” Sam and Dean attempt to figure out their next move while Jody ends up in trouble. Meanwhile, Chuck/God grows tired of the other worlds while the Winchesters risk everything to protect an innocent.
My top 5 moments fromSupernatural season 15 episode 12 are:
5
“I trust Jack…”
“Trust is a strong word,” but Sam and Dean are running out of options to stop Chuck/God. Billie seems to know what she’s talking about most of the time and we know that Jack has good intentions, but it’s clear that Sam and Dean are treading lightly here.
Jack cannot use his powers or he will alert Chuck, but can he control himself now that he is back in the real world? Let’s hope so.

“If you don’t come, I’m dead.”
Meanwhile, Jody runs into some trouble as well and makes a call to the Winchesters to help her out of a jam. It’s always good to see Jody and as we approach the end of the series, I hope we get some more screen time for her because it brings back so much SPN nostalgia.

It was also amazing to see Jody finally meet Castiel and I thought the chat about Claire was truly touching.

“She haunts me.”
Jody is not the only one to return in this episode, as we learn that Dark Kaia is responsible for holding her captive. She tells Sam and Dean that Jack can get her back to her world, but they are not initially too inclined to help her after she holds their friend against her will.

Dark Kaia reveals that her world is dying and that she has been having some prophetic nightmares, revealing that the real Kaia is actually still alive and trapped in her world.
We know that Chuck is looking to potentially shut down all other worlds so they better get Kaia out of there quick. After all, they’re running out of time…

“I don’t belong in your world.”
Even though the Winchesters are risking exposure to save one life, they are not about to leave an innocent behind. They return to Dark Kaia’s world, which is just as ominous as I remember. Kaia is saved and Dark Kaia decides to stay, even though it doesn’t look like her world is going to last much longer.
Jack and Kaia have a nice chat and we learn that nursery rhymes can get you through quite a lot.
It seems that all is well and Chuck has not been alerted, but another surprise guest is about to make her own appearance with killer style.

“I see the big picture…”
Billie shows up and takes out the reaper who has been spying on Jack, but good news never seems to travel along with her. Billie reveals that all the worlds are dying except for this one. Chuck is “wiping the slate clean” for the end, but Sam asks Billie what her end game is.

Billie reveals that everyone has a book in death’s library…even Chuck/God. Apparently the books write themselves and no one can read their own books. Billie reminds Sam and Dean that this is their destiny. They are the messengers of God’s destruction, but is there a price that comes along with this destiny?
What’s inside Chuck’s book and how is it linked to the fate of the Winchesters?
We’ll have to stay tuned to find out, but it looks like the glimmer of hope is increasing more and more now…even in the midst of the end of the world.
