Hibbing 911

Since when do vampires actually eat human flesh and organs? What is that about? Aside from that, everything that other review said about Jody and Donna is exactly what I thought as well. Not a good episode.

So last season Supernatural had a episode that was ment to be a back-door into a spin-off. That episode was lacking in so many points and I get why nothing came from it. This however would have been the perfect jump off point for a more light hearted comedy spin-off following the adventures of Sheriff Jody and Donna. Both are super likable and have great chemistry and I would have loved to watch a show following them trying to become hunters while juggling being sheriffs. Also nice to see Donna again as it was unexpected, Jody has been back a few times now and its always a treat seeing her pop back up in the boys life. Honestly, my only complain about this episode is that it had to much Dean and Sam, should have been only the lovely gals kicking monster ass.

Awesome episode.....highly recommended! Pay attention to cops' dialogue.....you'll burst laughing...soooooooo......gooood

The vampire story itself is a little weak-it is a pretty rote monster of the week. But it barely matters as the show finally had the idea to pair two actresses together that work perfectly as foils and just fit. Donna and Jody are easily the best reoccurring women characters on the show and this introduction of them as a buddy dramedy fits in. They feel as complementary as Rufus and Bobby. And I love seeing how characters in the know expand out from Hunters. I even like the melodrama with Donna's jerk of an ex-husband.

The show struggles with keeping women involved and even alive. But at least after 10 years they gave us this.

Hibbing 911 is entertaining in an off-center way. The Script writers for Supernatural are running out of ideas so they have to inject new plot devices for the series. This time the new plot devices worked; the two opposite female cops add comic twist which was hilarious. One police officer is an introvert while the other character is an extrovert; Similar to Sam and Dead but different. There is a Fargo movie influence with the director's style and feel for Hibbing 911, which blends perfectly into the story. The story unfolds as a monster hunt with liberal doses of humor and a bizarre ending. A memorable character plot twist. Well acted and executed Hibbing hits the mid- season target. The viewer gets comic relief and change for the main story line. A good mid season episode provides a break for the audience from over saturation of the concurring season 10 story line. Seven out of ten.
