From Route 666 to The Apocalypse: Ranking the episodes of Supernatural, Episodes 58-50
Posted by Cory Barker on June 30, 2011 · 2 Comments
Throughout its six years on the air, Supernatural has had a substantial amount of good-to-great episodes, which made this list difficult to compile. However, like any long-running series, Supernatural has aired its fair share of missteps, problem children and downright horrible episodes. These things happen. Over the course of the next few weeks, I’ll be discussing all the series’ … Read more

White Collar, “The Dentist of Detroit”

I haven’t written about White Collar since the season premiere. This is disappointing. But you know what else is disappointing this season of White Collar. Perhaps it’s just my personal taste, but I cannot get into this season’s overarching plot. After the season two finale and this season’s premiere, I voiced my concerns over the … Read more
