Who Else Can't Be Killed by the Colt?

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:56:20 GMT

The mid-season finale of Supernatural may have been incredibly depressing and without hope, but one single line caused fans' minds to start racing at the speed of light. After Lucifer got up after being shot by the Colt, he said that he is one of only five creations that are immune to the Colt's killing ability.

This comment caused my mind to race with a thousand different questions. Does he mean him specifically or angels in general? What are the other four? Why would Samuel Colt do this? It's enough to leave Supernatural fans in a daze of theories and possibilities.

Abandon All Hope? Mission Accomplished

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 09:41:00 GMT

The mid-season finale of Supernatural was titled "Abandon All Hope," and it certainly delivered on that promise. It turned out to be one of the most depressing hours of TV Supernatural has ever produced, and now, more than ever, I have no hope of a happy ending.

The episode saw the small group of heroes travel to fight and kill Lucifer. Instead, Jo and Ellen died, the Winchesters learned the Colt is useless against Lucifer, and Death, the second Horseman of the Apocalypse, was raised. The show ended with tornadoes ravaging Missouri while Sam, Dean and Bobby stared sadly at a photo of their group slowly burning.

THEN: Dean broke the first Seal, Sam broke the last Seal and Lucifer rose, causing Hell on Earth. Dean is meant to become Michael's vessel, Sam is meant to be Lucifer's vessel, and the two brothers are supposed to fight to the death for the fate of the world. Also, God is MIA and the boys finally located the Colt.

NOW: It's the big mid-season finale of Supernatural, which means major events, shocking twists, death and enough of a cliffhanger to have every Supernatural fan hating the months between now and the next new episode.

Possible Major Spoiler Tonight's 'Supernatural'

If you want to go into the final Supernatural episode of 2009 completely blind, I suggest reading no further. There have been some pretty major spoilers circling around the Internet for a while about the events of "Abandon All Hope," so stop reading if you don't want to be even remotely spoiled.

This is your last warning. Stop now.

Supernatural: Preview of Episode 5.10 "Abandon All Hope"

editor@buddytv.com — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Something big is about to happen in "Abandon All Hope," the final new episode of Supernatural before the show goes on hiatus. We won't be seeing Sam and Dean for several weeks so we can expect the mid-season finale to leave us with enough lingering mysteries and cliffhangers to drive us crazy while we wait for the show's return in January. In the meantime, we have a little hunter's reunion to look forward to tonight.

What's Your Favorite Moment from 'Supernatural' Season 5?

editor@buddytv.com — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 14:53:50 GMT

With eight weeks of no new Supernatural on the horizon, we're taking a look back at the first half of season 5. This year has seen plenty of big moments on Supernatural, including the rise of Lucifer, the return of hunters and demons from the past, Paris Hilton, the Trickster, a search for God, the Anti-Christ and an angel in a whorehouse.

'Supernatural' Vlog: Season 5 Episode 9

editor@buddytv.com — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 11:05:40 GMT

Perhaps there is no one better to recap 'The Real Ghostbusters' than our very own Supernatural blogger Emma (aka The NuttyMadam). Emma is best known for being one of the biggest Twilight fanatics in the world. She's been to the conventions, she has made a trailer reaction or two, and she's a total fangirl... probably just like some of you reading this article right now. Because, let's be honest, if it weren't for the fangirls, there wouldn't be Supernatural fan conventions and we wouldn't have an amazing episode like 'The Real Ghostbusters' to watch.

So check out what Emma had to say about the episode. Did you like it as much as she did? What are you thinking of her season-long theory? Let us know what you think. Go!

It's time to horde every last morsel of Supernatural you can, because after this Thursday's new episode, the show is going on a Winter Break until January 14, 2010. Since this week's episode, "Abandon All Hope," is the big mid-season finale, expect plenty of fireworks and major upheaval in the story.

Is Supernatural Jumping the Shark?

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 13:18:46 GMT

Last night's episode of Supernatural ended with prophet and Supernatural book series author Chuck telling his fans "It's not Jumping the Shark if you never come back down." At first I really wanted to think this was a joke, but the more I think about it, the more I realize it's not. Supernatural really is Jumping the Shark.

For weeks I've been trying to defend and rationalize Supernatural's recent increase in comedy. Cas visited a whorehouse. Future Cas smoked pot. Abraham Lincoln, Gandhi, Paris Hilton, the Tooth Fairy and the Incredible Hulk have all turned up. Supernatural parodied CSI and Grey's Anatomy. And finally, Sam and Dean attended a Supernatural fan convention. A while ago I wrote an article defending the show's use of comedy. I would now like to retract that statement.

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 12:37:36 GMT

Next week's episode of Supernatural is the mid-season finale, meaning it will be the last new episode for about two months. Therefore, it's safe to assume we won't be watching a lot of silly, pointless comedy. Instead, Supernatural finally gets back to the Apocalypse and Lucifer.

If last week's TV parodies and shocking angel revelations on Supernatural weren't wild enough, the writers have upped the ante on breaking the fourth wall this week. In "The Real Ghostbusters," Thursday at 9pm, Supernatural super fan Becky tricks Sam and Dean into attending a Supernatural fan convention. Let the inside jokes begin.

People's Choice Award Nominees: 'True Blood,' 'Gossip Girl' and the Usual Suspects

editor@buddytv.com — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 11:03:59 GMT

This morning the People's Choice Award nominations were revealed, and as always, it's populism at its best. On the TV side, the nominees often look like the top of the Nielsen ratings list, with a few notable and surprising exceptions. Shows like True Blood and Gossip Girl crept into the Favorite TV Actress categories while Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy TV Show features Lost, True Blood, The Vampire Diaries and Supernatural.

However, those are the very cool exceptions. For the most part, the list is full of CSI, NCIS, Grey's Anatomy, Two and a Half Men and other top-rated shows. Here are the major television nominees for this year's People's Choice Awards.

'Supernatural' Video: Super Fan Becky's Back!

editor@buddytv.com — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 17:13:33 GMT

After being trapped in TV land, Supernatural sets up a little fan convention this week as Wincest fanfiction writer Becky (guest star Emily Perkins) returns. Not everyone was pleased when Becky first appeared in the fifth season opener "Sympathy For The Devil," since the thought of Sam and Dean hooking up made a lot of fans sick but perhaps her comeback in this week's "The Real Ghostbusters" will shed her in a different light.

'Supernatural' Star Jensen Ackles Engaged to Danneel Harris

editor@buddytv.com — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 09:58:07 GMT

Sorry ladies, but Jensen Ackles is off the market. The Supernatural star and long-time girlfriend, One Tree Hill star Danneel Harris, are engaged. The news first came when Harris showed off her ring when the two attended the annual Breeder's Cup horse racing championships in California over the weekend, and Harris confirmed the engagement by tweeting a simple "Yes" on her official account.

Supernatural: The Meaning of Dean's Question

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:24:49 GMT

While the revelation that the Trickster is really an angel was a big shock on Supernatural, I was just as mesmerized but a much smaller moment earlier in the episode. When Sam and Dean were trapped in the Japanese game show the host asked Dean "Would your Mother and Father still be alive if your brother was never born?"

It's a disturbing question because, in many ways, the birth of Sam helped start Azazel's master plan to open the gate to Hell, free Lilith and get the ball rolling to free Lucifer. Dean's answer in Japanese was "Yes," which was the correct answer, but is it really?

Supernatural: John Winchester = God

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 09:16:48 GMT

Who would've guessed that the TV parody episode of Supernatural would include the biggest twist and bombshell of the season? Not only did we find out the Trickster is really the archangel Gabriel, but we learned that the entire series has actually been an allegory for Michael and Lucifer's battle over God.

That's pretty good for an episode of Supernatural that also saw Sam get slapped, hit in the nuts and stricken with genital herpes, not to mention the uncomfortable feeling of Dean digging around in his trunk. But what does Gabriel's message really mean.

Welcome to our first official Supernatural Vlog. BuddyTV has teamed up with popular Twilight Vlogger Emma for a new series of Vlogs about another passion of hers, Supernatural. Yes, she's as obsessed a fan as you can get, and every week Emma will be Vlogging for BuddyTV about new episodes of Supernatural.

Everything a 'Supernatural' Fan Needs to Know About 'Grey's Anatomy'

editor@buddytv.com — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 12:50:29 GMT

This week is the highly anticipated Supernatural TV parody episode "Changing Channels." Previews have already shown that the episode will feature Sam and Dean living in various TV show parodies, including a traditional sitcom and CSI. But perhaps the funniest is a spot-on parody of Supernatural's time slot rival, Grey's Anatomy.

I was fortunate enough to see an early copy of "Changing Channels," and without giving away too many details, there's more to this episode than just parodies. Like all of the best Supernatural episodes, the comedic elements are only a small part of the overall story, and there are definitely some shocking twists and dramatic moments in store for all the characters. Read my early review of this episode.

'Supernatural' Early Review: Parodies Make for Great TV

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 13:51:21 GMT

I was hard on "The Curious Case of Dean Winchester," the latest new episode of Supernatural, because I felt the story and, in particular, the villains didn't work. An episode needs a strong antagonist, someone viewers can connect with, which is why I was ecstatic that Warner Brothers sent critics an advanced copy of next week's brand new Supernatural episode, "Changing Channels."

Like any good fan, I watched it as soon as possible, and while you won't find any major spoilers in this review, I can tell you that it is, hands down, the best episode of the season. Of course, I'm a little biased.

WARNING: Stop reading if you don't want to know anything about "Changing Channels."

Next week's Supernatural is all about TV parodies, with the Winchesters getting stuck in fake world's resembling Grey's Anatomy, CSI and more. The CW just released a new video clip from next week's episode, and while it doesn't take place in TV land, it still references one television icon.

Supernatural: Is Bobby Going to Be OK?

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 09:27:05 GMT

Supernatural took a bit of a turn for the worse in the latest episode with a rather dull and poorly developed story about a couple of witches. Luckily, there was one thing that saved "The Curious Case of Dean Winchester," and that was the performance of Jim Beaver.

Bobby has always been a fan favorite, and his classic wisecracks and unique ability to keep those two idjit Winchesters in line make him a key part of Supernatural. But after he was paralyzed in the season 5 premiere, Bobby became defeated, a man stuck on the sidelines, unable to help in the battle.
