Last night's episode, entitled "Criss Angel is a Douche Bag" (seriously) was awesome (other notable titles this season included "Are You There God? It's Me, Dean Winchester", "It's the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester" and "I Know What You Did Last Summer" which was one of the best eps of the series).
The entire season has been terrific. No bullshit, the show is delivering week after week after week, it's really hitting for me like the X-Files did during it's mid-run peak. It's not like anything else on television, much less anything on the CW. It delivers drama, it delivers emotion, it delivers horror, it delivers subtle comedy. I'm not sure it isn't one of the 2 or 3 best shows on all of television right now. Seriously. It's that good. Give it a look sometime if you haven't already. [Reply]

This season could really have been bad ass, but it got dragged down by the brother angst shit. If this show keeps going, they have GOT to cap that. Have the bros hug it out and get to kicking ass, or something. [Reply]

I'm still in season 2 and am having trouble going back to the show because of this. If I wanted to watch women squabble there's plenty of daytime TV that fills the same void. Knowing that it is still going 8 seasons later makes me cringe thinking about starting back up. [Reply]

There really are good individual episodes that are worth it throughout the series, but the squabbling never goes away. Sometimes it kind of works, but most of the time it just gets eye rollingly absurd. I bitch about it, but keep tuning in. For me, the secondary characters make this show ever bit as much as the Winchester brothers do. [Reply]

Yeah, he hasn't even met the best characters yet. [Reply]

At the very least follow the story arc that leads to the end of season 5 (that was the creator's arc--planned it to be a 5-season series). After that it lulls a bit, then picks back up, and then lulls again with this past season, imo. [Reply]
I will get back to it, just am behind on so many shows as it is. One episode of GoT left. Two seasons of Dexter left. Three seasons of Breaking Bad left. Ton of books and comic books I'm working on too. Just finished Preacher (awesome, going to be a tough transition to TV). If it weren't so CW it would probably be higher on my list of priorities. Love the soundtrack, and there have been some really good episodes and stories. [Reply]
Thought the season premiere was okay. Not great, not terrible, just okay. Hopefully it gets better, but given last season, I'm not holding out high hopes. And...
Spoiler!
Rage zombies? Really? Come on Supernatural... Welcome to 5 years ago.
