    Laura Akers is a teacher by calling and a geek academic by nature. Her often too-lengthy writing and her own personal musings tend to revolve around issues of gender, sexuality, identity, politics, religion (and all the other things you’re not supposed to bring up in polite conversation) in TV/film/webseries and other narratives. You can keep up with her ramblings on these subjects by following @laurajakers

    Supernatural 11.07 – 11.09

    Before Christmas, Supernatural wound up the first half of the season with three solid, if not particularly inspiring, episodes.

    Sherlock 4.00 “The Abominable Bride”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    January 19, 2016 2 22
    Because Watson isn’t the only one creating fictions about the great Sherlock Holmes.

    Supernatural 11.04, 11.05, & 11.06

    Laura Akers

    The last few weeks on Supernatural have run the gamut from boring to squick, slowly improving as we move through the season.

    Supernatural 11.01, 11.02, & 11.03

    Because sadly, Supernatural’s season ten killed more than Charlie.

    Crimson Peak (2015)

    October 26, 2015 4 20
    Like most entries in the Gothic romance genre, Crimson Peak really isn’t, Lucille excepted, that frightening.

    Supernatural 10.20 & 10.21

    This season of Supernatural has been excellent example of how pacing can make or break a story. And unfortunately, it’s been the latter.

    Supernatural 10.18 & 10.19

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    April 29, 2015 0 18
    This season has been a slow one for Supernatural.

    Supernatural 10.16 & 10.17

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    April 15, 2015 0 23
    This does not bode well for the remaining episodes this season. For the first time, I’m genuinely disappointed in Supernatural.

    Supernatural 10.15 “The Things They Carried”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    March 24, 2015 1 32
    I’ve written before that Supernatural is a far better show than it generally gets credit for being. But this week, it really outdid itself.

    Supernatural 10.13 & 10.14

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    March 3, 2015 1 24
    I admit I came late to the Supernatural party.

    Rumbelle-ings in Storybrooke: The Dangerous Relationship at the Heart of OUaT

    When we look at Rumbelle and wish ourselves into that fantasy, we have to acknowledge just how much of a fantasy it truly is.

    Supernatural 10.12 “About a Boy”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    February 10, 2015 0 6
    Supernatural serves up an episode that really fails to advance the Mark of Cain plot. But doesn’t pretend to be all that much about the Mark.

    Supernatural 10.10 & 10.11 Reviews

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    February 3, 2015 1 18
    It’s rare that I find myself really disappointed with a Supernatural episode, let alone two in a row.

    Supernatural 10.09 “The Things We Left Behind”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    December 16, 2014 0 13
    But Supernatural has earned my faith in their ability to deliver great narrative in the end.

    Supernatural 10.07 “Girls, Girls, Girls” & 10.08 “Hibbing 911”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    December 9, 2014 0 15
    And that is precisely where the women of Supernatural continue to deliver.

    Supernatural 10.06 “Ask Jeeves”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    November 25, 2014 0 24
    After last week’s gift to harder core Supernatural fans, I expected this week to be a return to the larger arc-plots on the series.

    Supernatural 10.05 “Fan Fiction”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    November 18, 2014 1 14
    If anything, it is Dean who is consistently undercut by the humor &, with him, those who own the intellectual property that is Supernatural.

    Supernatural 10.03 “Soul Survivor” & 10.04 “Paper Moon”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    November 4, 2014 1 9
    One of the pleasures of Supernatural is that it is largely unpredictable.

    Supernatural 10.01 “Black” & 10.02 “Reichenbach”

    Laura Akers
    ReviewsTV
    October 21, 2014 0 11
    Supernatural is back for its tenth season, and it’s the same-ol’-same-ol’. For the most part.

    Because no matter how visually and narratively striking it has been and could be, it is not enough to give female characters like Beverly Katz and Alana Bloom spectacular deaths.
