Advantages: A terrifc gem of a series to own! Disadvantages: As usual, us Brits get diddly-squat in the extras department!
...The Boys ~~~
Without a doubt, Supernatural owes a large part of its success to the charm and skill of the two leading men. Dean and Sam are played by Jensen Ackles (Smallville, Dark Angel) and Jared Padalecki (House of Wax, Flight of the Phoenix). They are charismatic, versatile and completely believable as brothers. In addition, the characters they are playing are well developed, likeable, interesting and very complex, giving rise to plenty of ...

...what it reminded me of. Supernatural is all about two brothers, Sam and Dean Winchester, who are searching for their missing father, that is announced as being missing in the first episode. Everywhere they go, they find evidence of supernatural or paranomal activity and have to save the day by tracking and killing it or otherwise stopping it from harming people. Usually they hear in the papers on on the TV about some freak accident or otherwise somebody ...

Supernatural season 1 DVD Box set
Supernatural a series that was aired, I believed on ITV 1 (however I never saw it while it was showing but borrowed the 6 disc box set when it came out on DVD).
One episode one we see two young boys, one a toddler and one a baby, when the baby stirs in the middle of the night the mother ventures into the nursery to find out what's wrong. She see's a dark figure over the cot and is then mysteriously pushed ...

...enjoy this.
Season 1 of Supernatural is the story of the Winchester boys, Dean and Sam, who are trying to find their father after he disappears. Each episode features some kind of task involving the supernatural (of course!) and the boys must use their father's journal that he left for them to identify each creature and how to destroy it. As well as their "adventures", the main focus of this show is the relationship between Dean and Sam, and finding ...

I am going to write up a full review of all episode. I plan on doing 2 a day as any excuse to re watch the whole series again is good in my book. So bare with me. I will get it all done.
Season 1 - Part 1 - Disc 1

Advantages: Perfect for the dark, cold winter nights Disadvantages: Buy the whole boxset instead of volume 1 and 2
If you were like me and grew up on a stable diet of Buffy, Dawsons Creek, Angel and Roswell High then this show is for you. Especially if you are looking for something other than Smallville to get you through the dark, winter nights.
Ignore the front cover artwork on the boxset as well, I can say with true conviction that the show isn't as silly as what is depcited there. You will know what I mean as soon as you see the first episode.
What I ...

Advantages: Scary, good writing, great acting. AC/DC soundtrack! Disadvantages: Some weak episodes. All hinges on if the featured monster is any good.
...the Files was SOMETIMES actually supernatural in origin. In this great little show, the story is ALWAYS a ghost / monster of the week. And that is just one of the big drawers for me.
The acting is consistently good, as is the writing. I couldn't believe that 'McG' produced this, to be honest. I hate the Charlies Angels movies, but this show is a gem. Dean (for example) is funny, likeable, charismatic. I find that I worry for the characters safety ...

Advantages: Just about everything! Disadvantages: There's no special features on the UK boxset.
Supernatural aired in the UK on ITV2.
It truly is a fantastic series. The storylines are gripping and despite what anyone else might say, they ARE original, the producers really know their stuff and it's obvious to anyone that alot of research has gone into the show to make it as believable as possible.
Dean and Sam Winchester (Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki) are two brothers on a "hunting trip" across America to find their dad John Winchester ...
