 Hey guys Jeremy here, and this is my review for Supernatural season 13 I noticed particularly after the midway mark I noticed a lot of you guys kind of stopped watching what I was saying mainly because of my criticism of the season And but actually looking at it doing all the numbers and everything the season actually wasn't that bad up until The halfway point for that. There was only two bad episodes being eight and three There actually was some decent episodes in this. Some of them weren't the greatest There were some returns that really were not warranted There were some storylines that were for filler episodes that were actually really good some of the story aspects with the Jack In fact actually played out a lot better than I thought however the main narrative Literally turned this entire season into a fanfiction project the amount of retcon material in this entire season is borderline pathetic in terms of just how Lacking in creativity and just literally being fanfiction writing for instance these characters died last season Oh, yeah, there's you know There's Mick if any of you remember him and of all those ones who actually stay dead It's Mick of course, but then Crowley otherwise not only of these three characters come back But so did Bobby so did Charlie so did fucking Amanda Tapping's character Whatever her name was so did fucking Gabriel, which was a major fucking pisser That's one that was not the greatest by far But in terms of stories that actually were not bad Rowena's return while that was really stupid in terms of just her coming back to life again She has definitely become one of the best Recurring characters in this show. I didn't like her too much when she was first introduced although seasons back But now she's really coming to being one of my favorite characters on this show And that's rare to say because usually when a character is awful like catch they stay awful like catch But Rowena has actually really turned herself around and she's definitely one of the best characters in this show Castiel's Revival was eh, but admittedly that episode with the empty was actually a really cool episode Visually and just in terms of a very interesting aspect. They didn't explain everything about what that was that that's Cool mystery writing you don't have to lay it all out Like an Ikea book and terms of how to construct it. You don't need that and that's what they did They left it as a mystery. Oh Jensen Ackles wife was in this remember, and then she just disappeared There is so many aspects to this season that were Narrative like main narrative shit that was dropped. I actually forgot a bunch one of them being those weird Tremor Demon things that as Medea's wanted Jack to open up at the very beginning of the season Do you any y'all remember that? I actually thought that was going to be a villain like a actual Narrative point of this season, but it turned out to be Jack shit Then same with other things Lucifer being the king of heaven being something as Medea's being a villain he just like he was useless for one just a this Kentucky fried chicken dude and Then he is blown away admittedly while the season did have really Leasy and very metal dramatic retconning the narrative itself with Jack was definitely one of the higher stakes It definitely kept me invested in that narrative even when we got Reintroduced to Mary who no one gives a shit about that actually kept it going in terms of a very good narrative purpose There were some filler episodes even that I like there was that dark net one Which I kind of had a weird thought about like as it was a cool idea that monsters could buy humans online But how do you you know transport this stuff about it being? You know seen by the UPS guy or at least very well well-smelled also the bad place was wasted another Narrative aspect that was ruined that just dropped because like they ended the the mid-season finale with that look like they were gonna fight dinosaurs And they're boom they're gone However, that did introduce the wayward sisters group, which I actually did like that episode I did not mind it and the fact that it's not gonna get picked up is Admittedly disappointing because there's a much better spin-off idea than the original spin-off idea They tried to make him like season nine or something episode 15 had that really cool LA Noir Sort of story because they're trying to get the blood of a holy man and there was that Italian priest character who's really good. He was probably one of the best one-off characters that they ever introduced I really hope he comes back, but I know he won't but really he was one of the best one episode characters If the show has had in a long time Then they ruined it with that really really cheesy kind of Shoot-out and really bad editing, but otherwise that episode was actually really good And in terms of how the narrative was progressing while the episodes were definitely getting lower ratings in the Final half of the season the least the narrative was still going in good direction Even if that Gabriel craft was bullshit Now I've talked about it many a time, but really that Gabriel retconning was not good. It was very lazy I know a bunch of you guys look. Oh, he's the trickster. He's like, no guys. That's what emotional weight that's what emotional loss is supposed to mean to this show and This show just keeps on erasing that because it's sad. I don't understand like you This isn't how things are you should have to deal with loss and shows should be able to work around that are Just and on a good note. So I'm never going to be happy with that Gabriel retconning I'm never going to Forgive that because it was really bad writing and in the end. What did they do they kill them Which is funny because they eventually killed Lucifer, which by the way that fight is still one of the cheesiest fucking fights of all time It was a cool setup But admittedly there's a lot of plot holes in that season finale that I didn't really notice until thinking about it later Michael's from a different dimension So why is Dean his vessel and how does he even know about it because date Sam and Dean never existed in this alternative universe when they fought each other was supposed to be this battle of immense chaos and immense Destruction and all that was destroyed was a pew table and some people like wasn't exactly the right vessels Apparently this was super powered Lucifer because he had Jack's grace Who's pow more powerful than Lucifer? So no, no, I won't excuse how really silly that ending was but aside from all these negatives The episodes still flowed decently and like I said the first half of the season was actually really decent There was a lot of fives a lot of For there's even a few sixes There was not a single seven in this entire season and there was actually some sevens in twelve and I hated season twelve in Terms of its narrative they filler episodes actually weren't that bad But that's kind of bad when the main narrative is Second nature compared to the filler one-off episodes So in terms of its narrative weakness but with its narrative strengths as well as the one-off episodes being decent Well, or as not really being a cool filler episodes as previous seasons They're still decent episodes and while the narrative was weak it at least kept it going but now I've added up all the numbers and everything and The funny thing is I'm kind of in the same situation. I was was 12 and 12 Honestly, I would have given that season a lot less rating because I did not like that season at all And in terms of this season, it's not that much better really it just had a better narrative But that by much my there's not allowed to say to that So in the end, I'm actually just gonna go with the exact same thing I gave season 13 because while season 13 had a very better narrative structure The amount of retconning and absolutely lazy writing cannot be excused So I'm gonna give season 13 a three out of seven. It has some decent episodes here and there It had some really engaging Aspects it had some one-off things that were eventually dropped However, it had some retconning that had no purpose of being there and it just had a Really not that woo of a season finale again But that's the thing that seems pretty naturals had an issue with the last few seasons I think the last good season finale in my opinion is 10 Actually, yeah, I think it's 10 anyways guys.
