"Supernatural" is "Charmed" with a Y chromosome: both concern attractive squabbling siblings who inherit an occult mission from dead relatives. The brothers face a slightly more interesting range of adversaries than the sisters' cookie-cutter demons, but the essential Manichaeism is the same, as is the notion that, in vanquishing evil, you need both a powerful spell and a powerful right hook. I do see the appeal in watching attractive young people avert the apocalypse with remnants of high school Latin and a round of black eyes, but that appeal fades fast without fresh, challenging stories.… Expand

Supernatural is an amazing show, that nearly anyone can watch, and should watch. The show keeps to the myths and legends amazingly, while bringing great actors to the screen. The guys will like it because it has action, the girls will like it because of Jared and Jensen, and everyone will love it because of the car. I managed to get my whole family hooked!

It is easly the best show in years

Just one more "me-too" show to ride on the post-"the eye" mistery series. The biggest minus for this show I think is the leading actors. They are so emotionally flat that I could't tell if a big bad moster is about to crunch them or they are having the party of their life in a noisy club.

Absolutley tops for TV at the minute! cracking story lines and not to mention to hotties in the lead roles (Jensen Ackles *drools*) long may it continue!

I love this show. It's everything i love. It's like like getting to watch a different scary movie every week with the same characters ou love. I think its an awesome show and my favorite tv show thats on t.v these days!

This show is excellent. The writing is superb and the actors are at the top of their game they have their characters personalities down to a tee

i am from australia and this is the only show i look forward to all week. unfortunately has not been as scary this year but still love it

I absolutely love this show. It is cute and fun to try to guess whats going to happen on the show... Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. My boyfriend and I enjoy waiting for Thursday nights so we can see the new episode. :)

Except for some frustrating no-closure mystery, it's perfect! Wonderful characters, great acting, great suspense, scary entities, good chemistry between the brothers.

My favorite show ever on tv, never miss it. Hope its on for years to come.

BEST SHOW EVER!!! This is like nothing else on TV. It makes you laugh, cry, and scream all in one episode.

This is the Best new show of the season! It's like watching a little scarey movie every week! And besides that, the guys are worth watching it for!!!

wow.. good romp through the history of chillers.. all those ghost stories are true!!

supernatural rocks!!

The best new show of the 2005*2006 season. Sci-Fi shows are making a huge come back and Supernatural is among the best sci-fi shows of all time.

Love the show!!!

This show definitely packs a scare factor, many episodes keep me jumping and behind a cushion. The show seems to have all it needs to be scoring higher, but what holds it back is the poor scriptwriting and poor direction. I don't really want to say mediocre acting but that may be down to what the actors are being told to do. 8/10 episodes are classified 'filler' as they do not add to the storyline of the first episode, you see minimal character development at best. I sometimes feel like I'm watching a programme a 15 year old child constructed. For all those that gave the show 10/10, fair enough you love the show, but ask yourself - in the first two seasons when Dean almost died did you feel anything? Did you feel sad/worried? I didn't, and I should have. The show could do with getting better writers, but the rest of the material is there for it to be a cracking show.… Expand

A brilliantly written, acted and set Television program. Probably the best tv horror modern times has up for offering? Great actors, likeable characters (ignoring Sam for the first 3 seasons), well-written episode plots AND season-long plots ... Great effects that are believeable rather than as though they've tried to make them look spectacular and failed ... The list goes on. Overall, a great and enthralling series for a wide range of audiences (although it is known that Dean and Sam may appeal to young women quite well, if you know what I mean) as the series go on, a wide range of plots are covered, and after completing such a big task throughout season 5, it is hard to work out where the story will go; many options are available. The ending of the last episode of season 5 is worth watching all 5 series for, but saying this, each and every episode has its own charm, whether it be a thrilling chase from the officials, a timed excursion through america to reach and kill a supernatural entity "Before it's too late" or a joke episode from a certain character who appears first in season 2... 10/10. Why? An amazing series: Good for everyone. Series 1 in particular has more monster-hunting and less story related plots than the rest of the seasons. But this is a plus; you realise this when you watch the rest of the series then get particularly excited that the episode you're about to watch is a monster hunt.… Expand

One of the bravest and well written television shows to come around. Former co workers were passing around the season sets and I went in kicking and screaming only to me possessed! The pilot episode did a superb job introducing an American Urban Legend show mixed with Han, Luke, and a dash of Route 66. Lost its footing for a bit with a few episodes feeling like X-Files leftover scripts. But even the writers and actors joked a bit in the season. The show came out in an era of Lost but was smart enough to not fall into the trap of trying to string the viewer on and on with a payoff that could be years from happening and impossible to live up too. each season ays off by the finale and the first five seasons are merely chapters of a five year plan. It feel off the tracks here and there but instead of insulting the viewer the show acknowledges its own continuity, attempts to fix things, and moves on! A big plus for me: Ben Edlund, creator of The Tick, works on the show. Plus I can always tell when Sera Gamble has written a script. First show to ever make me a fan of television writer. I've watched every episode so I may have leaked into other seasons but the show builds well from its foundation. As I mentioned above I came in late to the game. I do not recommend watching three seasons on dvd in six weeks. Makes you a bit paranoid.… Expand

Supernatural is the only show I look forward to watching. I mean it is that one show that I have to see, which means drop everything else and sit on the couch for an hour no matter what is going on around me. Yeah the show has two very hot main characters but that is not what attracts me to the show ...although it doesn't hurt. The show has the most heart out of any show I have ever watched. I mean the relationships the pain the happiness it reads so well and it really is amazing acting. I genuinely feel their pain when I watch the show. You don't find many shows with that kind of heart. Besides that aspect the overall idea behind the show is brilliant and very well written. 3 cheers for supernatural and to anyone who doesn't think so you probably like shows like Gossip Girl and Teen mom's....… Expand

Light. Entertaining. Witty. Suspenseful. What is it about supernatural stories that gets everyone? They're so damn interesting. Easyly one of the best shows on TV. But, beyond the story is the great cast. They go from action to drama to comedy, and its done so well. Congrats to star Jensen Ackles, I knew he had it in him!

kinda tedious, in the sense that we've seen it all before, but still, fun to watch.

One of my favorite shows on TV. The first season was a little too brooding and emo and can give a bad impression. In season 2, they dropped the excess angst and went full steam ahead into kickass town and haven't looked back since. The tone is just serious enough to keep you scared and just playful enough to let you know it doesn't take itself too seriously. I'd love to see more variety in the monsters they fight and the occasional return to the urban legend stories that the show started around but if they don't change a thing, I'll still happily keep watching.… Expand

Started strong-I loved the first episode. Well written and imaginative and the acting sufficed. The following two episodes have been less than stellar. I'll give it 1 more week to pick it back up. Overall, not bad.

My favorite new show this year. Does a great job of revisiting folklore and urban legends.

The premise, acting and writing (mostly) is great, chemisty is generally very effective and I am now officially calling myself a fan. (The occasional humour does not do any harm either) Of course incomparable to BTVS, but since I doubt any other supernatural-based show could ever compare, I'll be just. Whoever said these two boys are just pretty faces is incredibly wrong, and that is not just me being an insipid little fan girl, which I chronically deny I am.… Expand

It is a show for everyone!

this show is the best show ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dean and sam.... u r soooo hott!!!

kool show

Supernaural may seem like a cheesy tale about a family trying to work out it's issues by having heartfelt talks (like 7th Heaven...no offence to fans) but this show is so much more. The gorgeous and talented Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles star as two brothers hunting spirits while trying to find their missing father. The show has the perfect mix of thrills and comedy to make it one of the most enjoyable shows on the WB. Hopefully, it will stick around for a very long time.… Expand

Supernatural is one of the best shows on TV. I'm pretty picky with the TV shows that I watch, I defeinintly doin't get drawn into teen dramas. But, Supernatual is different. It's suspensful and unique. It keeps your eyes glued to the TV screen.A true masterpiece.

I love Supernatural for many reasons, given it's creep factor, family sentiments, and hot completely lovable stars who wouldn't.

While the acting is a bit superficial by the two leads, the premise of the show is good and many of the episodes engaging. The writing is a bit wooden at times, but they should work that out as the characters evolve. J.D. Morgan as the father should get more screen time, but again some of the lines that get put in his mouth...!

A vary good show that pulls there ideas from real legends while adding enough of there own to make it origianl. I hope to see more sesons of Supernatural.

Series started as a little show all about two brothers in a pretty car hunting nasty things, quickly turning into one of the best character-driven shows around. Effortly mixing humour, angst and action, Supernatural is well on its way to being the Buffy of its generation.

cool show not on par with x files, but still a solid show for us sci fi geeks and horror movie buffs...oh and the 2 bros on the show are hotties!

The best show on TV since ever! Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki are a star team, and with people like Kripke and Singer behind them it's no wonder the show is awesome!

The first show that I refuse to miss a single eppisode of. Supernatural is indepth, exciting and grabs your attention the moment it comes onto the screen. With english as my second language, I very rarely watch shows other then french but Supernatural has become my all time favorite show. Not enough people know about it. CONVERT YOUR FRIENDS! Supernatural is a perfect show.

I am from the UK and we love supernatural over here (although it could have more publicity) Supernatural is generally loved by the fans of the sci fi/horror genre although im sure it appeals to more of a wider audience than that...but it is just amazing, i dont care what anyone says I think the actors Jared and Jensen are very talented and have alot of potential to go into bigger films...plus they are HOT :) I totally love the story lines and because i am into all that stuff anyway the show gives me my fix of all things weird and well.....SUPERNATURAL!!! in fact i think i like it even better than the X files!!!… Expand

This is by far one of the most underappreciated shows on television. It's dramatic without being soapy or reliant on huge plot twists

This show is great! The brothers aren't preppy or filthy rich. It's good to see them get dirty, unlike some other shows I've tried to watch where the leads can't even mess their hair up. They play believable brothers, rely on each other but not always get along.

The show has no "scare factor" to it. Its reputation isn't living it up very well as that the acting seems a little melodramatic. The plotline seems a little boring as well as the premise seems a bit useful to a few ends.

Supernatural is without a doubt one of the best shows on TV at the moment.

This is by far one of the best shows on television in this generation. I look forward to every Thursday so I can watch it with my roommates. I've got them all hooked.

My favourite show on TV. The brotherly relationship is what draws me to it! The mytharc is a close second. It is refreshing to see a show about something else than mixed loveaffairs (Greys anatomy/Desperate housewifes - totally stopped watching those) - SP is the most underrated show on TV today! J2 are extremely talented, as well good looking. Kripke - keep up the good work! We love you and J2!!

Supernatural is an excellent show that has an incredible progression with character development. Sam and Dean are believably "real" and you feel involved with their adventures and conflicts. Brilliant writing, an excellent depiction of the characters, and loads of great action make this show a true winner.

I have loved watching this show from the season priemere to it's current place in the 5th season. Though there are times where I miss some of the more light-heartedness moments between Sam and Dean in the earlier seasons. The show as evovled in a nessecary way to keep fans interested and was done so in beautifully executed manner. Even as a fan of both Buffy and Angel, I would have to say Supernatural trumps them both, EASY!!!… Expand

It is awesome it is such good acting and the actors are so hot and who ever says overwise probably have not seen it and are just such attention grabbing idiots.and who ever is reading this and is giving it bad rating BACK OFF ok.

Are people dissing the show because Sam and Dean arent completely fugly? Supernatural is hilarious and really scary when it needs to be. Definite 10/10 for me

The best show humanity has seen so far.

Excellent series! A friend of mine convinced me to watch her season 1 DVD and i was hooked from the first episode. As an X-Files fan, I saw a lot of the attraction of SN needs to be credited to Kim Manners, the great late director of many episodes (even filming in Toronto). Jensen is a great actor and deserves Emmy recognition, I have no idea why the CW takes its best show and pits it against the top rated shows currently on TV. A 10 all the way, sorry to see it will be ending with Season 5.… Expand

Its not like other shows its not the same thing over and over and its not predictable like Smallville.

It's truly a shame that this series has not been reviewed in it's newer seasons - because it has become apocalyptic brilliance and nothing else on television hits the spot quite like these two brothers and their relationship. Oh, and monsters don't hurt a bit either. Give it a shot, if you've any sense.

Yeah the ultra pretty boys and the WB setting may be offputting but give this show a chance. The pretty boys can actually act, be funny and have great chemistry together. The shows are good for at least one genuinely scary moment per episode although the Bloody Mary one just seemed a blatant ripoff of The Ring to me.

Started off very strong, fell off the 3rd episode, is making a decent comeback with sone new and innovative ideas..the writing could be a little better, they have good stories, but there is too much humor when there shouldnt be. Overall the show is great, and should last @ least 3 seasons of 22 episodes

I don't usually like mystery or crime movies, or even horror, but this show i like. it's short and captivating, and keeps me on the edge of my seat each time i watch it!!

i love this show.

best there is, best there was.. best there ever will be

I think this is a very awsome show, I love it. I can't wait for the next episode.

I think it's a cool show that's better then the buffy and angel stuff since this is more realistic and the ideas for the episode are brought from real-life myths. It's cool, scary, funny, and has some special effects put in.

The show is just what tv needs. With good acting and an interesting theme, haveing to watch jensen and Jared, ( totally HOTT!) is a definate bonus!

This is an awesome show and it never should stop. Supernatural never disappoints me.

This show is by far one of the best shows I have ever seen. Jensen and Jared have great chemistry which allows them to believably portray the roles as brothers. The show is just scary enough to make you jump yet comedic enough to make you burst out laughing!

One of the most addictive and frankly distinctive new drama's with vast potential to come to TV in a long time; and certainly one the best, complex and interwoven sibling relationships I have seen portrayed. Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki are two very talented and promising actors- the show is still pretty much in its infancy but shows fantastic potential - here's hoping the CW see this too and keep it for the long haul allowing it to become the fantastic and compelling series it promises to be. Hugely suspenseful with a heart at the story to match, hilarious banter and on screen chemistry, I simply cannot recommend it enough.… Expand

This show is by far the best show on television! Everything about the show 'screams' #1! The actors, creator, writers, directors, producers... every one of these people worked to make this show original and exciting... and they definitely succeeded! Keep it up guys!! ~Ellen B, Halifax

Enjoyable! what can I say? Doesn't have the sharp wit of Buffy or Angel but not bad.

Whats not to love about supernatural? it has great acting, great story lines, and with Jared Padelecki and Jensen Ackles as the two leads it can't go wrong!

My gardmother's wedding is more exciting than this show. I watched one episode and needed supernatural powers to watch this shit. Please remove it asap. Paris Hilton has more acting skills than Jensen Ackles, which isn't saying much. If anyone's reading this, it's really, really bad!!!!

this show is amazing it is really good and so entertaining

I make sure everything's done by the time Supernatural's on every week, cuz I know I'll be useless for the hour it's on!! It's great for a scare, hot guys, and a laugh.

Whoever said these guys can't act hasn't watched the show. This show is great, a unique blend of supernatural mixed with brotherly dynamics and background suspense. Jensen Ackles' acting is top notch, better than so many tv stars that are out there. He brings the character 'Dean' to life and gives him a charisma rarely seen nowadays in so many shows dubbed 'popular'. Jared Padelecki's Sam is a great foil for Dean and both guys make this show really work. The writing is great, the lines are unforgettable. This is one of the best shows on TV and certainly the best on the WB soon to be CW.… Expand

Terrific show. Great idea of using urban legends and folklore as a basis and the relationship between the brothers is very believably pulled off by Ackles and Padalecki. Ackles' character Dean in particular did a great job of portraying layers in his character the writing sometimes left out and in the second half of the seaso his character was often put through an emotional wringer and he handled with a deft and delicate touch.… Expand

The show started as a spooky atmospheric, albeit lean, creep fest and has evolved into a drama revolving around the Winchester family and the plight of Sam's reluctance to reconcile with his father, who's crusade he views as tormenting his childhood, with spook sequences used much like romantic sequences in most other dramas. Jense Ackles, as older brother/stoic hunter Dean, is stellar and Jared Padalecki, as younger brother/reluctant hunter Sam, does an admirable job, if you can forgive the occasional over emotional acting. The writing is funny, hammy stuff with the dramatic teetering between too little, too much, and just right. The season finale almost hit the spot, here's hoping season two does just that.… Expand

Fantastic! Entertaining, emotionally compelling, and fulfilling!

This is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time. The acting is terrific and the storylines are not only fascinating but downright spooky at times. Week after week I look forward to Thursday nights, even when they are repeats. This show keeps me coming back for more and I can't wait until the second season begins.

omga! i love this show and i usually hate spooky movies and shows but i just cant get enough of Supernatural! its an amazing show!

I love this show! its great!

This is a show with great acting and high budget effects that I watch often, if only to fill the 'supernatural' hole left by X-files and Buffy. Unfortunately, the writing is so bad as to be almost camp, including such odd ideas as rock-salt pistols for ghost dispersing and burning corpses to kill them. The show uses carefully chosen words to hide a lack of research of any kind in the paranormal or the occult, without establishing its own solid supernatural rules the way other successful shows in the genre have in the past.… Expand

Well plotted, well written, great acting. This show builds suspsense as well or better than anything I've ever seen on television, and the cast is fantastic.

it good keep it on! it's the best tv show ever!! u feel me?

i love it so much b/c of jensen and jared but also b/c of the funny things they say and do to eachother, i never thought it was good now i do...:)

This is an amazing show. I can go on about a lot of great things about it but the man fact is the over all result. The team behind it is like a perfectly oiled machine as the show is so damn sleek! Everything from the script itslef , to the effects and ofcourse the acting (of the leads) is near perfetct. The random refernces, the cool music it all boils down to a perfect package. Kripe you are a master.… Expand

Scariest and best supernatural ever, I love every aspect of the show.

this is the ONLY show i go out of my way to watch each week......it deserves better, more objective reviews

This is the best T.V. show that I have ever, EVER seen... There need to be more like it...

One of the best thriller tv shows of the last 10 years. a definate keeper!

i love this show.

This show ROCKS!!! I LIVE FOR IT!!!!

this show it great ,I can not get bored with this show . it keep you guessing on what going to happen next. make you laugh when they act little boys fighting like briothers. and love for each other like I said great acting. hope they will be around manay years. :)

I look forward to the show each Thursday

This show deserves more good reviews. Great plot and acting. Very suspenseful and scary, something different and chilling every week. Hopefully it will have more seasons. Excellent show!!!!!

I love this show, and Sam and Dean aren't bad to look at either. The story lines are very believable, some of them I remeber as a kid. One that I haven't seen and is a folklore is "Candy Man" now that would be entertainment.

Ok. People need to ease up on the bashing of this show. First off, if you want cliche, then buffy is for you! c'mon some hot girl that can just literally beat the crap out of demons, physically?! At least Sam and Dean usually don't go head to head without a weapon or amulet of some sort! And when they do, they get knocked out, so at least that's a little more realistic. And it's about two brothers that love each other more than anything. Which is something some of us wish we had. And for the record, it's hard to truly frighten anyone nowadays, so they make up for it by at least making it interesting and relatable. And the acting is not horrible. Dean is comic relief plus i believe a true hero. And they've saved like a thousand children! C'mon people!… Expand

This show is great. There's comedic humor sometimes, there's drama, and of course there is sci-fi paranormal stuff.

Ok sooo, I love this show. I watch it every week. I do admit that sometimes it a little over dramatic, but it is still a really good show. I love Jensen Ackles, his character is really funny...and cute. I dont think he is a bad actor. At first the show was a bit more scary, and now it isnt. But does it really matter that it isnt scary??? Well not to me, i mean i dont think this series is supposed to be that scary. It kindof has a Buffy or an Angel vibe, in that not of this world things happen, and ghosts and all, and yet it isnt supposed to scare you! So ya, i really hope this show sticks around.… Expand

This is my favorite show. It has a great mix of humor and horror. I make sure to be home or record it every time it is on.

Quite possibly the stupidest, most basic, pandering, cliche, self-indulgent, over-done, stinking, putrid mass of crap on the idiot box today. My GOD, this is what television has come to?? It's ALMOST, but not quite, as stultifyingly moronic as those retarded "Reality TV" shows!!!!!
