Read Full Recap » (warning: possible spoilers!)Sam and Dean need to get rid of a rabbit foot hide show
Sam and Dean stumbled upon a rabbit foot which had been kept by their fathe for quite a time. Ironically, this rabbit foot could bring luck to the owner. Two guys stole it from the Winchester brother, one of them touched it and became lucky. But when they lost it, it turned hell. What became interesting was when Sam lost the rabbit foot and became exceptionally unlucky. After a few months of gap since the last season stopped, I finally have a chance to watch Supernatural again (I missed the first two episodes). I watch this episode will full enthusiasm, and realize I couldn't draw my eyes away when I have watched only the first 15 minutes. In my opinion, this is not a bad episode, The idea of lucky rabbit foot really startled me and I couldn't subdue myself from laughing. Creative, I guess...
Exactly Why I watch This Show! hide show
I absolutely loved this episode! It was so funny and Sam and Dean are just hilarious!
"I'm Batman."
"Yeah, you're batman."
Those two are just so funny together! Jared and Jensen really do an excellent job playing their characters. They play off each other flawlessly.
This episode was one of my favorites. If you haven't seen it you should becaue it was great. A perfect episode to get people into the show that haven't watched it before.
This episode rocked! And poor Sam when the paw was stolen, he lost his shoe and kept falling. I felt bad for him but it was still so funny.
Awesome epi!
A great episode coming from a bad idea hide show
Sam and Dean receive a call telling them their father's vault have been stolen: two thieves stole a rabbit foot, which gives good luck to who ever touches it, but when they loose it they start having bad luck until their death.
When I first heard of this episode I thought "Nah, just a rabbit foot episode, sounds suckish. Bad idea." But when I saw it, man! I've gotta say this is one hell of an episode. The idea of having a cursed rabbit foot seemed kinda stupid, but the episode is so great! It was rlly funny!
Gordon returns and this was Bela's first appereance.
Pretty great episode.
Ben Edlund's masterpiece! hide show
"Bad Day at the Black Rock" is a Ben Edlund's episode and thus it has to be a humorously escapade made of witty remarks, subtle nods to pop culture and tons of biting sarcasm and irony.
And it is even more. It's the most hilarious episode I've ever seen on Supernatural: brilliantly scripted, masterfully directed and exceptionally edited. The comic timing is absolutely perfect on the episode and the sassy attitude of Bela Talbot (Lauren Cohan) is just the perfect icing on the cake.
The episode is almost an anthology of instant-classic scenes, from the mismatched fight with the two thieves, to Sam practically falling in Kubrick's arms, to Bela shooting Sam in the shoulder.
Most of all, two scenes really stand out and both of them are accompanied by a one line that it has become (rightfully) a fan-favorite: "I lost my show" (Sam) and "Dude, I'm Batman!" (Dean).
Supernatural comes dangerously close to doing full blown comedy hide show
I never thought I'd say this, but Supernatural was pretty close to trading in its sci-fi crown for a comedy one. The two genress were perfectly blended, and once again, Ben Edlund delivered a laugh infested episode that, at times, will make us cringe in disgust but also leaves us laughing.
It all begins after a mysterious woman steals a box from John Winchesters old storage space. Sam and Dean realize that it was a rabbits foot that she stole and that it was cursed. Watching Sam and Dean and everybody else go from having great luck to awful luck was just flat out comedy. Everything that happened to Sam was hilarious, and by the time we realize Gordon's friend wants to flat out murder Sam, we're too busy laughing at how ridiculous the premise of this episode was.
At times, the episode seemed to stray too close to focusing entirely on humor. But if anything, the humor makes the dark moments of the show that much more dark. I guess dark humor would be the best word for it..
So far, Season 3 is pretty good. I liked Season 2 a little more at this point, but right now, the show has proven to be consistent in quality. And the return of Gordon didn't hurt.. he may be a hunter, but he's making a good case to be a villain.
