Supernatural: "Family Remains" Preview and Fandom News

Part of: The Winchester Family Business: Supernatural

I have new clips, so this can only mean one thing. A new Supernatural episode is coming on this week! This break has seemed especially long, so something new is more than welcome. Up next, "Family Remains." Below is the official description as sent out by Warner Brothers:

A man's mysterious death causes Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) to believe that his house may be haunted, but when the home's new owners move in during the investigation, an unexpected and gruesome discovery complicates matters. Guest starring David Newsom and Helen Slater. "Family Remains" was written by Jeremy Carver and was directed by Phil Sgriccia.

From all the buzz I've heard, "Family Remains" is a standalone episode going back to the tradition of creepy horror that has gotten strangely lost because of the show's evolving (yet very welcome) mytharc. Judging by the following clips, I'd say they were going all out.

Even The CW is promoting the show! Yeah, I know, I was shocked too. If you go to the CWTV videos section for Supernatural on their site, there are some great clips in the previews section. There’s a preview clip for “Family Remains” and a new one called “We’re Freaking Out!” It’s an outtake from the hilarious Dean screaming scene in “Yellow Fever”, promoting the fact that Supernatural was listed as “One of TV’s Top Ten” by the Philadelphia Daily News. There’s also another one with Dean hanging (a scene from the upcoming “Criss Angel Is A Douchebag”) with the words “We’re sorry to leave you.” As I’ve mentioned before, if the video doesn’t play for you, use a Firefox browser.

Plenty of Fandom News

Oh my, where do I begin? I could tell everyone that Jensen Ackles’ new movie, My Bloody Valentine, comes out in theaters on Friday, but I’m pretty sure that only cave dwellers don’t know that and they wouldn’t be reading this article. The chatter among the fandom over this has been huge and everyone has been pretty excited. I’ll also state the other well known fact, that Jared Padalecki’s new movie, Friday The 13th, comes out next month on, well, Friday the 13th.

Tickets yesterday went on sale for the recently announced “Salute To Supernatural” convention in Vancouver held by Creation Entertainment. Yes, right in the backyard of the show, which opens up many possibilities. I myself have started a campaign pushing for photo ops with the Impala. It will take place August 28-30.

    Alice, thanks so much for honoring Maddie (Madz) in this blog. She was such a wonderful person and I wish everyone could have known her. I have sent the link to her family and know that in time it will mean as much to them as it does to us over at Bust Dean Outta Hell Brigade.

    I found it ironic that this week's episode is "Family Remains" and to us in the Brigade Madz was not only a dear friend, but also family and even in death, family remains within the Brigade through our hearts, memories and souls.

    I'll watch tonight with equal parts joy and sadness, knowing that Madz isn't here to support her favorite show or cast. And neither will she be here to discuss the episode with us.

    Thanks again for honoring her. You're a special lady to do this for someone you never knew, but impacted at the same time by unknowingly sending her to us through your first blog.
