She's back!
When Felicia Day returns to Supernatural Wednesday (9/8c on The CW), the actress will be in her element. "Pac Man Fever" will find her character, Charlie, and Dean (Jensen Ackles) trapped in a video game dream world, a perfect place for Day, who's both a real-life gamer and plays one in her webseries The Guild. "I was very excited to...

For a guy playing a broody Boston bloodsucker, Sam Witwer couldn't be happier. Now in his third season on Syfy's Being Human, the Smallville vet's ancient vampire Aidan Waite is up to his incisors in a devastating plague that is wiping out his undead brethren and giving his character all sorts of juicy stuff to sink his teeth into. In Monday's episode things get even wilder (and maybe more lethal) for Aidan and his roomies — former werewolf Josh and recovering ghost Sally — so we decided to pump Witwer for some scoop on what's coming up on the bloody cool supernatural drama.

Sam and Dean infiltrate the world of LARPers as they work a regular monster-of-the-week case that reconnects them with Charlie from Season 7's "The Girl with the Dungeons and Dragons Tattoo." Yes, live action role-playing is the name of the game and Supernatural went all out to bring it to life. Time for a trip to Moondoor.
Charlie isn't the only one to make a return engagement in "LARP and the Real Girl" (although it was really great to see her working with the boys once again). We were also reunited with Adorkable Dean. Emphasis on "dork." Well, emphasis on "adorable" too. I love, love, love that he's able to channel his inner geek and tap into his fun side for this case.

Soon, he's giving Charlie some strategy advice and when he dons that handmaiden outfit, it's all on.

The remainder of Supernatural's eighth season — which resumes Wednesday at 9/8c on The CW — with the focus on Dean (Jensen Ackles) and Sam (Jared Padalecki), who are on their quest to finish translating the "Word of God" tablet, which will allow them to shut the gates of Hell and trap demons there forever. But the Winchesters won't be alone in that pursuit. "Everyone's going to have some skin in the game," says exec producer Jeremy Carver, especially King of Hell Crowley (Mark A. Sheppard).

Finding Kevin, closing the gates of Hell — Who can focus on all that when there's a much bigger issue at hand: that of Sam Winchester's (Jared Padalecki) very questionable year off? The biggest problem many Supernatural viewers (myself, included) have had with Jeremy Carver's debut season as showrunner is how Sam moved on after Dean's disappearance without an apparent second thought.
