    Supernatural is an amazing show! It has everything in it, horror, action/adventure, comedy, an amazing cast full of great actors, and a truly amazing story-line. My favorite aspect of the show though is the brothers relationship, its so strong!

    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

    This is the only show at the moment (and i watch them all) that highly amuses as well as deeply touches me. You can feel all the love Erik Kripke and team put in their show. Thanks, guys, keep up the good work.

    Supernatural is a great show that gets increasingly more intelligent and enjoyable with every new season. Its direction, writing and the main characters stand up head and shoulders above your usual teenage-oriented preternatural gibberish (Buffy, Dark Angel, Reaper, etc), and, somehow, it even manages to remind me of the first five seasons of the X-Files and still look pretty good Supernatural is a great show that gets increasingly more intelligent and enjoyable with every new season.

Objectively speaking, I'd probably rate it about 8 of 10 (10 being an practically unachievable degree of near perfection), but the other user review that gave Supernatural an absolutely unwarranted 3 leaves me without such an option.… Expand

    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.

    "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 "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

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

    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 Ok.

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

    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.

    At least the younger brother can act. But the other one, is incredibly annoying. That's why I could never follow the show.

    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 isn't scary, it's just not good. It's boring, so not scary. It tries to be Buffy The Vampire Slayer, but unlike Buffy, this show has boring storylines, lame monsters and uninspired acting.

    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!!!!!

    This is one of the most phenomenal shows on television and it drives me nuts that more people don't know about it.

It's one of the few shows that can go from being hilarious to mysterious to terrifying to action-packed to horribly depressing all in one episode, and it never fails to leave you wanting more. It also is getting consistently better and better (the first season definitely had a few "filler" episodes). They've just announced that it is being brought back for a 4th Season and I couldn't be happier. If you haven't seen this show, please check out the DVD's as soon as possible. p.s. All of the critic's reviews that are referenced on this site are from the Pilot episode in 2005... not a good reference to base an entire show off of at all.… Expand

    The US has given the world the sopranos, deadwood and house... and I guess you just hve to take the good with the bad. I'm with Tiffany... I've watched 2 episodes and I'm afraid it will take either supernatural intervention or a frontal lobotomy for me to sit through any more of this contrived shit.

    Genre fans used to the emotional depth and extraordinary storytelling of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel" will find that this show is not even remotely in "Buffy's" or "Angel's" league.

    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.
