TV show reviews: Supernatural

by Samantha Overmyer

Created on: December 13, 2008

The television show Supernatural is an incredibly witty wide range audience program that stars two young and handsome actors, along with many bit part actors from our other favorite TV shows and movies. This show focuses on two main characters, Dean and Sam, while building the suspense for what's to come. Dean and Sam are brothers caught up in the world of supernatural evil on a quest to kill the yellow eyed demon that killed their family, on a mission to stop the world from ending, and on a journey to figure out who Sam really is.

Throughout the show we've come across many evil things that Dean and Sam, the unstoppable hunters that they are, killed and sent back to hell. Some of the creatures and beings have been malevolent spirits, vampires, werewolves, demons, changelings, and reapers. The other force that they also had to face was Gordan, a hunter bent on killing Sam because he believes Sam's psychic abilities are going to bring about the end of the world. And as we thought that fighting evil could never have been easier, the gates of hell were opened releasing more evil back into the world all over again. To top it all off, Dean only has a year to live because he sold his soul to a demon so that his brother would live.

But on a side note, some other great aspects of the show are the special effects, which are awesome. Dean's car on the other hand adds power to their characters when they ride into town to save the day, the engine purring, the growl of it when they speed off. And the music: AC/DC, Bad Company, Ozzy, Blue Oyster Cult, Ratt, Boston, and Foreigner. There's nothing like watching an awesome battle scene and listening to Hell's Bells.

The show's quotes are also very memorable. Here are a few funny quotes:

1))

(There's this town where the people there sacrifice one male and one female so the scarecrow god will keep their apple orchard healthy so they can prosper.)

Dean tied up: "I hope your apple pie is freakin' worth it!"

2))

Sam: Dean, there's ten times as much lore about angels as there is about anything else we've ever hunted.

Dean: You know what, there's a ton of lore on unicorns too. In fact, I hear that they ride on silver moonbeams, and that they shoot rainbows out of their ass!

3))

Sam: Dude, I'm not enabling your sick habit. You're like one of those lab rats that pushes the pleasure button instead of the food button until it dies.

Those are some funny quotes, and there are plenty more where that came from. On a show like this we are never starving for laughs or action. I hope they keep going on this show or the fans will surely be disappointed.
