Supernatural - Series 1 - Vol.1 (Box Set) (DVD)

...~~~ 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 great emotional ...
...watching it first-hand. Supernatural is, in my opinion, a very well crafted show. It is extremely dark in places, with a bit of an X-files feel to it, but every now and then, there will be a light hearted episode with plenty of humour and no angst, that balances all the scary stuff. The continuing sub-plot of Dean and Sam's family background is developed brilliantly and culminates in the excellent finale, Devil's Trap, which has more twists and turns ...

Review of Supernatural - Series 1 - Vol.1 (Box Set) (DVD)

...about the show itself... Supernatural is a teen horror/drama and yep, you guessed it, supernatural/paranormal type show. Think Buffy but with two guys, or even a darker version of Charmed, at least thats 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 ...
...They know about paranormal and supernatural activity after having been brought up by their dad, who taught them to hunt supernatural beings. Their dad had been hunting evil for 22 years before he disappeared and their mother was killed by supernatural forces as well, which is what led their dad to fight the forces of evil. Each episode contains a self-containing storyline, for the most part, so you don't have to follow it all through in order necessarily. ...

...plipplop's review here who thought Supernatural wasn't scary enough; he is right, some episodes aren't scary but with the right conditions and mood, it will be truly scary! In all, series 1 of this TV show is something that no-one should ever miss! It is honestly one of the best TV season debut I've seen on TV; most tv shows take a while to find their feet to find success; this show has done it within 3 episodes. This show has two admit tingly good ...

...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 the monster ...
...the show and have watched every episode that is available in the UK so far. Lucky for American viewers, you are half a season ahead of us. But I recommend buying the seasons on Amazon as they are very cheap and good quality. It's a terrific show, funny and full of suspense. It is definitely worth giving a try. ...

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 mean ...
...the spectacle of the brothers mother enveloped in flames, stuck to the roof burning to death with the house exploding into a giant ball of flames. Not bad for the first 5 mins and you still have another 40 minutes to go! The thing wtih shows like this is you either love them or hate them, the marmite of the televsion nation. If you are like me, you will love this, especially in later seasons when the actors get more comfortable with each other. ...

...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 ...
...protagonist is going to meet a sticky end! All in all it is a highly entertaining 'monster of the week' show, along the lines of Buffy (which I am a big fan of), with the occasional 'arc' thrown in for good measure, and a good healthy mythology to keep the viewers hooked. Never bothered to check it out? Watch one episode, you may be hooked. ...

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 ...
...season one, can you fully appreciate and admire the talent and time that has gone into making this programme. Season two is also a fantastic sequel, with possibly even more action than season one! The Winchester boys never cease to amaze me, and many other Supernatural fans worldwide. ...
