Critic Reviews

Tom Gliatto

The series' grim tone and overall look of a grimy world in perpetual need of dusting or wiping is a long way from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and closer to Japanese movies like The Grudge. [12 Sep 2005, p.45]

Jonathan Storm

It's likely to startle you the way no show has since The X-Files. Read full review

Glenn Garvin

Padalecki and Ackles are hunky, funny and a joy to watch. Read full review

Melanie McFarland

"Supernatural" plays like a high-octane B-flick. You could be mildly ashamed at how much you like it. Read full review

Mark Dawidziak

The creep factor runs high, and it had better in a series called "Supernatural." But the series also has its overly familiar and just-plain-silly moments. Read full review

Brian Lowry

A perfectly serviceable if not particularly inspired bumper. Read full review

Aaron Barnhart

These brothers are like most WB stars and starlets, pretty faces with negligible theatrical skills. Read full review

If you've stayed away because you've seen stills of the leads and have figured it's just another CW "Cute Boy Show" you were wrong. Supernatural is one of the most consistently well-written, acted, and directed shows on television. The effects are awesome, the scares are effective, the humour is INTENTIONAL, and the relationship between Sam and Dean is some of the most honest and real work that I've ever seen in any medium, television or otherwise. If you never gave Supernatural a chance now is the time. Supposedly the creator plans to end it at the end of his "Five Year Plan".… Expand

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!

Supernatural is the best show on T.V since LOST, honestly people have been losing their heads over Breaking Bad but that show became uninteresting a few seasons ago I just don't care about the characters or their stories. Supernatural knows what the word badass truly means

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.
