Synopsis for 5.21 Two Minutes to Midnight

A full synopsis for Supernatural 5.21 Two Minutes to Midnight has been released. For the original release, go to Shock til' You Drop. The episode is directed by Phil Sgriccia and written by Sera Gamble. It's been awhile since Sera wrote an episode for Supernatural. I cannot wait to see her her. As a tradition, I believe Erick Kripke wrote for the season five finale. The episode will air on May 6 on the CW.

The following synopsis has been altered for spoiler reason:

Stan Shunpike tells Bobby he will give him the location of the Death Eater in exchange for his freedom. Meanwhile Puppy Eyes and DEAR GOD DEAN need the 66th Horcrux to stop the You-Know-What. Sam and Dean confront the Ministry of Magic but Castiel must intervene on their behalf. Dean has a meeting with the George and Fred to discuss You-Know-Poo and Dean's Army is formed at a very low price for Dean.

DVD Release: Supernatural Season Five

Hurray! You can pre-order the Supernatural Season Five DVD on Amazon.

I don't know the release date, but I assume it will be at the end of August or September, it usually comes out a few weeks before the start of the new season.

According to Supernatural Fans Online, there should be a commentary by Eric Kripke, Robert Singer and Ben Edlund on The End. You will also see unaired scene from The Real Ghostbusters.

Stay tuned for more details on the DVD.

Supernatural 100th episode - The Power of Love Review

Once upon a time, die hard Supernatural fans made a deal with the evil genius called Eric Kripke. He threw us down to the pit, tortured us with great characters and plot lines that are full of scary but sexy factors, humor, action, bromance, occasionally a suicidal teddy bear. Then he raised us from perdition and gave us a group hug.

"I'm just screwing with the fans!" He said.


Cut the birthday cake!! Supernatural 100th episode was awesome! After watching the episode, I get the feeling that we are getting back to the season one vibe. Saving people, hunting things the Winchester way, the way John taught them. Screw destiny!!!

I baked a cake. Congratulations to the Supernatural crew and cast ^_*

I should know by now that Supernatural is best known for changing the direction of a curveball in the middle of throwing a curveball, like the writers have a remote control to control the direction of the ball. You don't know how it will land. After it lands, it might still be rolling to another direction. You just don't know what's gonna happen until the 59th minute of the 11th hour. Am I am making sense?

Bobby's bachelor pad

Point of No Return is the evidence of the show reaching its maturity. Fans can debate all they want when it comes to the plot, the mytho and the direction of the show. But Supernatural does not forget one thing. This is a show about the brothers and the family. It's a show about saving people hunting things, the family business. This has been the focus of the show since the Pilot.

You can deal with supernatural creatures that are larger than life and they are more powerful than you are, but at the end of the day, family and friends will keep you sane and human. Sometimes, I think viewers forget that, and I think sometimes because some people keep classifying the show as scifi and fantasy but it's not, it's a DRAMA about the relationship of two brothers. If I may say so, Supernatural is better than its predecessor in the same genre.

Let's get on with it!

The Scary Movie Guy

There is no 'previously on', but when Supernatural doesn't have a 'previously on', it usually has a very good intro before the title card. Just like Monster at the End of the Book or Hollywood Babylon, Point of No Return has a great intro involving Zachariah (who will be referred to as the Scary Movie guy for the rest of the blog). I love how Jeremy Carver wrote the scene, the Scary Movie guy is very much like a senior executive douchebag who works at Goldman Sach. He will do anything to get the business deal and the big fat bonus. I love Kurt Fuller in this episode, he went out in style. His performance was awesome!

The hosts from the Crossroads podcast called it! The Scary Movie guy is dead! Ding dong.... I like him in It's a Terrible Life, the pep talk was cool, but I guess we all know that's his style. He will do the sweet talk, then BOOM the head shot!

Again, every guest star is very well cast on Supernatural and they can all act! With shows like Smallville for examples, sometimes it's WTF.. Like that ice dude in Absolute Justice, he wasn't well cast and it wasn't the first time. Sorry guys!

Hey, Plan B, We Don't Want You Anymore

Let's talk about Adam, the 3rd brother. I like him in this episode, he wasn't himself in Jump the Shark, but he was himself in this episode. Jake Abel stepped up in this episode. He has to! Because of the heavyweight acting showdown with the cast. Jake has a resemblance to Matt Cohen's John Winchester.

"Hey Adam, the 3rd brother who is not a ghoul this time, we have a lot in common!
Our sense of fashion, our voice, our taste in women.."

I knew Jake Abel was going to be in the episode way before the lock down, so it wasn't a complete surprise to me. I didn't think too much about it. But poor Adam, seriously! He is cursed because he is a Winchester. What happened to him at the end of the episode? Dead (again) or alive (in a Michael kinda way)? To be honest, I don't see him as Michael, I guess I will be fine with it if he is, but he has a massive shoe to fill, because Matt Cohen was really good as Michael. I don't think this is the last time we see Adam.

How many adults did it take to restore Dean's faith?

A back-door launch for Supernatural: Back to the Future III (written by Tiny)
Er.. huh? What?

Bobby is awesome and we all know that! Dean said some really mean things to Bobby in this episode. When Dean said "You're not my father" to Bobby, I almost cried. Dean was the one who told Bobby he shouldn't give up! So, enough of this crap DEAN! Man up and fight!

Don't piss off the pissed off angel.

Castiel is pissed off and we all know it! In Lucifer Rising, Cas rebelled against Heaven all because of Dean. As the series develops, Cas shows his loyalty, he's become a friend to the brothers. I think he looks up to Dean. You can tell how pissed off Cas was in this episode. In the beginning, he was really quiet but pissed. The silent treatment was deadly. When things got boiled over, Cas just had to beat the crap out of Dean! WAY TO GO! If Cas is allowed to swear on Supernatural, I can see him swearing his lungs out and say: "I rebel for you, you piece of shit!"

Cas really kicked asses in this episode! I have never seen Cas fought so good before. Three fights in one episode and he won them all! How much more can I love this angel? I LOVE CAS!!!!!

Cas totally went Smallville in the last fight scene! I could hear Save Me when I see this!



Whoops.. I mean this! You go head and rip that shirt!



The Incredible Hulk who is also known as Sam. Sam needs a hair cut. The side is just a bit too wavy. The sideburns are too Elvis. The front of his hair is just getting a bit too high. You can tell that he has time to blow dry his hair. But it doesn't make sense when you're on the road and on the go, since when Sam has the time to style his hair and trim the sideburns?? I am sure Dean doesn't style Sam and I am sure Bobby doesn't have a blow-dryer.

Campaigning Sam to have a hair cut

OK.. seriously. I like Sam in this episode. He really tried to stop Dean from saying YES to Michael and he really tried to watch over Adam. I guess he now knows what it is like to be in Dean's shoes. At the end of the day, those puppy eyes really saved the day. Those puppy eyes made Dean changed his mind! That is all! No secret there! It's not complicated!

The power of puppy eyes save the big brother.

It took three adults to restore Dean's faith. Here comes Dean... do you know who he is? OH DEAR GOD! LET US PRAY!

While I was on lockdown, I missed two of the most delicious photos of Dean.. I am so sorry baby.



OK.. DEAN! The first scene of Dean in this episode was goood. I would love to get hold of that piece of music! The scene was very well written and very well shot! The sound effect of sealing the box and the key was awesome! Do you think the letter was written for Bobby or Sam? Jensen has sexy writing. Seriously, it was like preparing himself to die. But lucky! Puppy eyes showed up with a pissed off angel. That's what friends are for!

According to my source on Twitter, you can read Dean's letter to Sam. Blow up the image and you can try to read what Dean wrote.

It has been a depressing journey for Dean. The angels (or the writers..!) ripped his heart into pieces. He seriously couldn't get any lower! He was giving up! He just wanted to get this over and done with! But team free will won't give up on him because Dean never gave up on them before.

I like the pace of this episode. First you have Bobby having a go at Dean. Sam tried to talk to Dean. Cas was quiet but seriously pissed, finally he beat the crap out of Dean! Then came the crucial moment....

DEAR GOD! IT'S DEAN. THE DEAN!
(That would be my reaction exactly but 100 times louder!)

Dean: "I am Dean Winchester. Do you know who I am?"
Dude: "Dear God! ... Our Father, who art in heaven hallowed be thy Name.."
Cas: "You pray too loud."

The Mighty Wink is Mighty

You got the puppy eyes, but I got the wink that makes the fans go wild.

THE WINK was epic! That was so Dean! The was the wink that changed the game plan. The wink that screwed destiny! The wink that killed the Scary Movie guy. The wink has become an icon of hope. The wink has become an instant classic moment on television. The wink has become Amy's Twitter avatar. I kneel before the wink of Dean Winchester.

Go Dean! I love you! I love the curveball from Jeremy Carver! Just when you thought this was it, Dean had said YES, get over it. But then things changed! Oh God! I LOVE SUPERNATURAL.

Dean - The Sweet Ass

So, what makes Dean so special in a Heavenly way? Let's look at a few facts.

Back in season one's Faith, Roy said to Dean he was a young man with an important purpose, a job to do and it isn’t finished. (Foreshadowing much?)

We saw Dean killed the Whore of Babylon in 99 Problems. According to Castiel, the Whore could only be killed by a true servant of Heaven.

In When the Levee Breaks, Dean swore obedience to Heaven and the angels. At that stage of the series, we all thought Dean was just the righteous man who broke the first seal, he was given a second chance to serve Heaven. But of course, more was revealed later, he was THE vessel of Michael.

Dean had killed some major badass demons including YED and Ruby.


Dean killed an angel - the Scary Movie guy. According to Uriel, only an angel can kill an angel. Either he was lying or he was referring to the fact that only the angel blade can kill an angel. It seems that an angel can only be killed when it is in a vessel.

Dean looked into the eyes of the Scary Movie guy, he looked at the bright light without a flinch. May be it's nothing, but what is the significance of the extreme close up of his eyes? He also didn't cover his ears when Michael was coming down from Heaven.

Dean has never been possessed by a demon.


According to Kara, Dean is actually God. He has been looking for himself the whole time! Quick! Someone find Dean a mirror!

Could all the above make Dean a true servant of Heaven? Perhaps God has his own plan and he needed to train up Dean to finish the plan?

Point of No Return was simply awesome! It was a very important episode. Now that Dean has restored his faith thanks to Sam, Cas and Bobby stood by him, what will happen next? How will team free will fight the angels and demons and protect the planet at the same time? We will find out very soon.

Only four episodes left in season 5. Don't miss a second of it! Spread the love. Tell your friends. Let's work on the power of love!

PS* If Jensen Ackles doesn't get a nomination at the next Golden Globe or whatever, you now the angels are behind it. But then again, Jensen is too goooood for those clowns in award shows.

One more for the ladies before I sign off!

Hey, ladies!

A Very Badass Chadathon: Thank you

TeamPanicRoom Presents
A Very Badass Chadathon
Thank you

The Twitter Party: A Very Badass Chadathon was a great success. It was all business up front, party in the back! It was held today, 18 April 3pm AEST. We have a record crowd of participants for this Supernatural Marathon. We watched Everybody Loves a Clown, Simon Said and Hunted, in which Chad Lindberg played Ash aka Dr Badass.

While I cannot tell exact how many tweeps joined us, I can tell you that TweetChat was packed with tweets about the episodes. We all used the hashtag #Chadathon! We made some new friends too. Amy and I were in 'twouble' at one stage.. it was funny! It was hard not to reach the 100 call limit to Twitter when we were tweeting about the awesome Dr Badass!!

Some of us even changed our Twitter icons to Dr Badass during the Marathon. I got a bit confused at the beginning, it was like talking to yourself! We were all Dr Badass!!


At one stage, the mighty Chad Lindberg made a guest appearance. Chad was 100 kinds of awesome!!! ^_^


I am planning the next Supernatural Marathon. It is likely to be a John Winchester centric Marathon. I think both the JDM John and the Matt Cohen John deserve a separate Marathon. But I will have a think about it and gather some feedback from #TeamPanicRoom. If you have suggestions, let me or any of us know!

Thanks again all ^_*

SPN LOCKDOWN REMINDER: Supernatural 100th episode

SPN Lockdown? Feels like I am in jail!

As a reminder, I am on a total panic room lockdown. That's why you don't see me posting any photos, videos or synopsis here. Simple because I don't want to know. I want to be completely surprised by the evil genius.

Therefore, I'd appreciate if you can keep your comment spoiler free. After we all watch the episode, we can go into SPN depression.... I mean discussion!!! ^_^

With the remaining episodes, I'll go back to the usual routine, I'll post the promo photos, videos and synopsis. But with 5.21 & 5.22, I will return to a complete lockdown.

Expect an extra long review from me on the 100th episode. I realise that I have a lot to say about the previous episodes, I guess it just happens that I have a lot to say.

Anyway.. hold that thought and we'll discuss it after we've all watched the episode. ^_^

Here is the promo, if you want to watch.

[Updated] Supernatural episode review: 99 problems, most of them relate to Castiel's inability of using a cell phone

"You've reached the voice mail of...."

"I don't understand, why do you want me to say my name?"

"Doo doo doo doo doo...."

So.. what do you think? After my reaction to previous episode Dark Side of the Moon, I felt somewhat relieved to read Julie Siege's name on the opening credit. She wrote some of my favorite episodes including It's the Great Pumpkin Sam Winchester and Monster at the End of the Book. In general I love 99 Problems more than Dark Side of the Moon.

The episode was almost 99 kinds of awesome. Apart from one continuity problem, I love it. While this episode didn't score the perfect ten from me, like Pumpkin and The Winchester Gospel, the thing I love about 99 Problems is that this is the other type of Supernatural episode I love. 99 Problems certainly has the Jus in Bello-Croatoan vibe, and you know how much I adore Jus in Bello and I love Croatoan.

Continuity problem

Let's get the only WTF comment I have for this episode out of the way and then I can blog happily ever after.

The ending with Lisa was very random. The continuity and the connection seem somewhat very strange to me. We have seen Dean's vision of Lisa and the Picnic in Dream a Little Dream of Me. In The Kids Are Alright, we found out Dean cared about Ben, he enjoyed spending time with him. Lisa was the first girl Dean wanted to see when he knew he was going to die. In both episodes, the writers had established that Dean wouldn't mind to have a son, deep down he wanted some happy time with Lisa and he would love a nuclear family, but it's just not his life.

Perhaps Dean needs Lisa and Ben as leverage in negotiations with the angels. There is nothing in his life left apart from Sam and the Impala. So I think this is the only reason for the writer to bring Lisa and Ben back into the picture briefly. I feel that if Ben is indeed Dean's son, this would've been a very good reason to bring them back, otherwise what's the point? When I saw Dean standing in front of Lisa, I really thought he was going to ask her "Is Ben my son? I really need to know." But he didn't. And Lisa has denied all along that Ben is not Dean's son. If he is, then there is certainly a Winchester connection there.

I guess if we've seen a bit more of Lisa and Ben stuff or even if we've seen one Lisa and Ben moment in Dark Side of the Moon, then I'll have no problem with it. I just felt that the ending was very random and sudden. Some of you also pointed out that Dean whispered something into Lisa's ear, but I thought it was just a kiss.

OK.. let's get on with the stuff I love..

I love this episode from the beginning. I love the Jus in Bello-Croatoan vibe. I love it when Dean and Sam have backups. I love it when Supernatural goes ... well.. Jus in Bello. I wouldn't mind seeing the brothers gathering a few hunters to fight the war together. I also wouldn't mind seeing a few hunters who we've met in The End. For continuity purpose, I think it'll be really cool to introduce them as civilians in this episode and go Terminator 3 about it. I know I know! For the 99th times, I just want Supernatural to go Terminator Salvation. Deal with it!

I love Michael Shanks. A bit disappointed that he didn't get to play a more important role. For the 99th times, I really really wanted Dr Jackson to play the Archangel Michael or God when I first heard about this casting. But nevertheless, I love me some Shanks. It was great to see him in Smallville and now Supernatural.

I love Castiel. He is just 99 kinds of awesome! Oh boy! I just wuv to hugz him. I am lost for words when it comes to Cas. "I don't understand, why do you want me to say my name?". He is soooooo funny when it comes to using his cell phone. He is too cute when it comes to Cas and his cell phone ^_^ OMG I love him!!!! LOVE HIM! My life would suck without Cas. Seeing him drunk and depressed is heart breaking. But we all have our moments.

I love the idea of having a true servant of Heaven to kill the Whore of Babylon. Dean? Yeah baby! I still think apart from the bloodline stuff, Dean really is the righteous man and he has underestimated himself. So I think he should man up and kick some asses! Beside, Dean and Sam are the best hunters in the business, that's why they have their own show! The world needs Dean and Sam.. and Castiel.. and Bobby...

Speaking of Sam, I like Sam in this episode. I like it when Sam asked Dean not to give up. That scene in the motel reminded me of the season 3 Sam. I love Sam's don't-friggin-give-up-now-don't-you-dare attitude. Look, it's just a dysfunctional family, Sam knows he's got issues, but Dean is pretty messed up too. (Wait.. is that a song?), so at the end of the day, their lives would suck without each other.

So, there is something seriously wrong with Dean. He has hit rock bottom, like he has hit the core of earth! Will Dean say yes? 'oly merde! I am going back and forth with this. Right now, I don't think he will say yes. His heart is telling him to say yes and I know all clues point to him saying yes, but I think the writers will keep throwing us the curve ball.

Without thinking about it 99 times, this episode is definitely 99 out of 120. Apart from the random Lisa moment (which I guess I understand where the writer is coming from), I think it was a solid and awesome episode. I was expecting a sleeper filler, but I am glad that I was wrong. And I certainly love this episode more than last week. Having said that, last week's fireworks and Dean wuv hugz moment were GOLD!

The rating for 99 Problems was pretty good at 2.96 in the first hour and 2.58 in the second hour. Source Spoiler TV and TVbytheNumber.

I think this is a treat for all the Dean girls ^_^

PS* This is for the Crossroads nation: If JoHan kills the scary movie guy with his mullet, I am growing a mullet. HA!

A couple of reminders:

The Crossroads podcast, the best Supernatural podcast in the universe, will have a live show on UStream on Sat 17 April 8pm central standard time (US). The Queen and I and a few other tweeps will be glued to our computers for that! Come join us on UStream, there will be a live chat while we listen to Ty, Star and may be Tim discussing the 100th episode. You can download the weekly program on iTune.

Team Panic Room is hosting a Chadathon (Dr Badass) on Sunday 18 April (3pm) Sydney time. (Which is really a few hours after the Crossroads live show due to time zone.) So join us if you're around, we are going to rewatch some of the Dr Badass episodes: Everybody Loves a Clown, Simon Said and Hunted. Details here.

[Updated] Official synopsis for 5.20 The devil you know; remaining episodes; other stuff

Official synopsis for episode 5.20 The Devil You Know is surfaced.

"SAM AND DEAN FACE OFF AGAINST THE HORSEMEN — The demon Crowley (guest star Mark Sheppard) tells Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) he can help them find the remaining Horsemen rings so they can trap Lucifer. The brothers are doubtful until Crowley leads them to Brady (guest star Eric Johnson), the Handler for Pestilence (guest star Matt Frewer) and Death. However, Brady refuses to give up their locations and sets Pestilence after the Winchesters. The episode is directed by Robert Singer, written by Ben Edlund. The episode airs on 29th April."

No official synopsis is released for 5.21 & 5.22 (I am 66% sure). But according to Wikipedia, 5.21 Two Minutes To Midnight is written by Sera Gamble (airs on May 6) and 5.22 Swan Song is written by the devil himself, Eric Kripke (airs on May 13).

Boy, am I excited!!!!!???? Hellz yeah bizzatches!

I was talking to the Queen on Twitter the other day that it's not a season of Supernatural if there is no cliffhanger. So we both agree that a cliffhanger is highly likely. Should/ if there is a cliffhanger, we are certain that while we may not see Apocalypse a Sequel, it doesn't mean the writers will give the angel story line a clean chop. Kripke is best known for screwing the fans. I just feel that the season 5 finale and season 6 premier have to have a connection. If not, I understand and I am fine with it, but that's just my thought.
