Supernatural - The Complete First Season
On paper, that sounds a derivative mix of many shows that have gone before it. And to some extent, that's what Supernatural is, yet its mix is nonetheless compelling. What lifts it above the norm is the quality both of the writing, and crucially, the direction of the show. There are moments that are spooky, and some that are downright scary, with plenty of suspense linking the two. And while the 22 episodes have their fair share of peaks and troughs, Supernatural has an edge about it that easily carries it through its slower points. At the heart of the show, ironic considering the number of other programmes it tips its hat to, is a desire to do things its own way, and for that reason, come Supernatural's maiden season finale, it leaves a real thirst for more episodes. Fortunately, the second season is already in the can, and we suspect it'll continue to grow the number of fans that Supernatural is rightly earning for itself. --Jon Foster ReviewsNow one of my favourite shows! Review date: 2008-07-31 Rating: 10 out of 10 Supernatural is a thrilling horror show about two brothers who travel the roads of America searching for the father, and the demon that murdered their mother 22 years ago. Great acting from Jared Padalecki (as Sam Winchester), and Jensen Ackles (as Dean Winchester). Absolutely fantastic! Brilliant Series! Review date: 2008-07-29 Rating: 10 out of 10 Supernatural - The Complete First Season After catching odd episodes on TV I finally got around to buying the Complete First Season, best DVD purchase I have ever made! The story lines and acting are great and the characters even better. The Winchester brothers, Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles)have great chemistry between them making them both lovable characters. I'm now hooked on the show and ordered the Second Season fairly quickly after receiving this. Only downside is that I'll have to wait until the end of August for the Third Season to be released! (already pre-ordered on Amazon) Exciting Series, Well thought out Review date: 2008-06-12 Rating: 8 out of 10 I first heard about Supernatural after seeing a clip preview on Freeview after a movie (I dont watch much TV, too many reality shows). I watched an episode and was hooked. I love it. Sam and Dean are 2 really likable characters and its far better acted than charmed or ghost whisperer. The 2 guys are demon, witch and ghost hunters searching the length and breadth of america in seach of their missing father, but in each episode get caught up in a small town and its hauntings, which all seem to involve their father in some way. Ive only watch Pt 1 of Season 1, but its really well done and in some parts its genuinely gripping and it has some grouesome scarey parts, but not as terrifying as it claims. Unlike Charmed and Ghost Whisperer, its a bit more "earthy" in its production and not so glossy and pollished perfect as the others, which gives it a more real feeling and, for once, you actually come away and feel like youve watched something decent, instead of the "that was a bit silly", or "is that it", or "Why didnt they do that or try this" kind of feeling, which can leave the whole thing a bit hollow and pointless, but Supernatural steers clear of that. So, why only 4 stars, well the picture seems a little dark on my DVDs. Ive tried it on my PC and my DVD player, I dont know if they used filters when they filmed it but the night scenes look a bit too dark for me, if anyone else has found this can you drop me a comment and let me know. I would recommend it to anyone who likes suspense TV drama with a bit of edge. Its not the best thing Ive ever seen, but its acted and produced well and everyone on set looks like theyre actually serious and want to do a good job, which is rare. entertaining, frigthing, funny and moving. Review date: 2008-03-24 Rating: 10 out of 10 Four words to describe a well created tv show. The two brothers Dean and Sam looks just like any other brothers, with their constant arguments and fights, but there is more to it. This is a show that makes you laugh, jump up from your couch and shed a tear. There is something about how Jared Padalecki(Sam) and Jensen Ackles(Dean) act together. They might as well be brothers and best friends in real life. Get ready for a tv show you're going to love. I highly recommend this product.
