Amazon.co.uk Review
Spooky US TV series Supernatural delivers some of the most satisfying small-screen scares in recent memory. The premise is deceptively simple: brothers Sam and Dean (Jared Padalecki from Gilmore Girls and Jensen Ackles) travel the darker corners of the American landscape in search of their father, who's gone missing while hunting the malevolent forces that lead to the death of their mother. In the course of their search, the siblings encounter a host of gruesome and spooky otherworldly creatures, including vampires, ghosts and witches, as well as such distinctly American phenomena as the urban-legend favourite The Hook, monsters from Native American mythology and fearful figures from well-known children's games. Supernatural's integration of elements from pop culture and folklore, combined with its skilled cast and crew (creator/co-writer Erik Kripke delivered 2005's Boogeyman, while director/executive producer David Nutter is a veteran of The X-Files and Millennium), and better-than-average attempts at atmosphere and suspense place the series well above the other spookshow programs that arrived on TV screens at about the same time. That, plus a well-crafted evolving relationship between the brothers, ensured the series captured the imagination of fans of frightful fare worldwide. --Paul GaitaThis beautiful box set is guaranteed to make others jealous, containing every episode of the first and second seasons, with bonus extras including cast and director commentaries, making-of documentaries, a brace of unaired scenes and a gag reel.

Supernatural - Quiet Brillant Series January 11, 2008
10 out of 12 found this review helpful
This one brillant box set and is from a brillant show that really has gone unmissed on TV by a lot of people due to poor scheduleing of a series equal to Heroes and the X Files.
My wife purchased the first series in the Ukraine and I watched this and had to buy the boxset. As the series is brillant and equal to any on TV. The boxset is a very nice touch is very handy and keeping the whole series together in manageable small bites of four shows per disk. Each show is about 45 minutes long and is very well acted and shot.
Great boxset at a great price!! January 4, 2008

Its great that amazon have provided this in a special edition box, because lets face it, its great to have something that is limited edition. The box is small and compact and is great to look at, its also a complete hard case, which makes a change from the flimsy cardboard you get in alot. Inside it is split into four, with season 1 part 1 and part 2 and seasons 2 part 1 and part 2. Although there is no extras on season 1, they make up for it on season 2 with plenty to keep you entertained. I am extremely pleased to have this boxset at such a great price. This show is completely underrated! You will not be dissapointed if you buy this boxset!
Very good fun September 24, 2008

This is a very, very good TV show. If you have never seen it, it is definitely worth buying for the (very low) Amazon price.
I find myself loving this series an inordinate amount, probably against my better judgement. But its charm and wit are more than enough to mostly obscure its faults.
It is wonderfully shot. The tone is dark and moody with the characters often shot in silhouette and I love the way in which the set, car and props seem dusty and used. Unlike many current TV shows everything is not clean and characterless and sanitized. It is this that partly makes the show believable. It does not take place in the bright lights of the modern city with its shiny labs and FBI offices but in the more timeless diners and motels of small town America.
It is also very funny. The two brothers, especially Jensen Ackles (as Dean), have fantastic one-liners. Any TV geek will love the "what would Buffy do?" and the "I'm Mulder, you're Scully" moments. The concept too is ridiculously good fun. Every week the two brothers set out to investigate an urban legend come true. What follows is sometimes scary, often funny and always entertaining. The fight scenes, car and disguises seem to be a perfect formula for enjoyment.
However, this is never going to be the best TV shows ever. The dialogue is sometimes clunky ("we're better as a family Dad and you know that" springs to mind) and you find the actors occasionally struggle with the "manly melting moments" which increase with frequency as the series progresses.
But please, please do not let me put you off too much. This series is not always great but it is almost always good fun.
And I will admit it; this has so be one of my favourite, if admittedly not one of the best, TV shows around.
Amazing November 9, 2007
