Supernatural – Season 12 Episode 18

“The Memory Remains” Supernatural sends Sam and Dean on the hunt for a low level God as Mr. Ketch starts working towards his inevitable betrayal. This is definitely one of those episodes where there isn’t a lot to say about what goes on. The case of the week is fairly standard as these things go…

Supernatural – Season 12 Episode 17

“The British Invasion” Supernatural continues developing Mick questioning his training and how that relates to practical hunting while setting the stage for the end of the season.
