Death has meaning for Sam and Dean after a long slide.

Here is our review of Supernatural Season 11, episode 2.

Weve seen everything from a yellow-eyed demon, the devil, to the apocalypse and the Leviathan.

Each new foe somehow went beyond what we thought the limit of bad really was.

This season we have something pre-Biblical: The Darkness, and she is something else entirely.

I was thinking how interesting it is to see the consequences of Sam and Deans impulsive selfishness (i.e.

always saving each other, damn the consequences), and then Sam brought it up himself.

Jenna and baby Amara visit grandmas house.

Whats the worst that could happen?

You know they only stay this precious for so long.

He meets a reaper, Billie, singing that fabulous Oh Death song.

She also serves a higher plot-related purpose.

If they die, its game over.

This has been my biggest critique ofSupernaturalfor quite some time.

Every time they die, lose a soul, become demonized…they come back.

Everything goes back to normal.

See you next Wednesday.

Death lost its meaning, its power over our characters.

We had nothing to worry about.

Now that Billie has laid out some dire stakes for the boys, they might start eating their vegetables.

Cas is still dealing with the aftereffects of Rowenas spell from the finale.

Answer: A lot.

Really disappointing, I was hoping this freshman cop would stick around.

The boys could use some feminine wiles on the team now that Charlies gone.

I like the style of episodes thus far.
