Review:
For years I planned to watch supernatural and for years people told me that I shouldn't watch it because I can't really handle spooky stuff, getting nightmares and such. So I never watched it. Until I came to a point couple weeks ago that I had no series left to watch. Because normally I watch the series that come out the day after, and then one at the time older series that I haven't seen yet. Sometimes those series might have ended, others have still running seasons. But now I had not of the latter. So I scouted IMDB for series I could watch. And there I got interested by The Secret Circle (See upcoming review TSC) and Supernatural. I went to YouTube and I checked out the trailers from both series. I was surprised to see how normal Supernatural looked like. My boyfriend noticed that I was getting the Supernatural series and warned me again for nightmares. But I said that I don't believe I have anything to worry about. At this moment of writing I just finished watching season 1.

You have to know that this blog is MY opinion and that this sometimes might not stroke with what you think. I hope you understand that =)
I was a bit disappointed at first in Supernatural. It was like looking at such supernatural series made by amateurs. I did not find it so scary at all, you could see through all of that and it bothered me a bit. Since everyone always warned me about it. But since I really didn't have anything else to watch, except then maybe for Vermist (Flemish missing persons police series), I watched Supernatural on empty moments. Sometimes in dull episodes I played some WoW. But then, the last 3 episodes suddenly changed. Suddenly they came on a point in the story line that I really started to get interested. It finally got my attention. The fact that I had to get through 18 not always the greatest episodes was instantly forgotten. And that season finale... Well Done!
I would write out what I like so much about season finale, but then I would write spoilers. And since not everyone that is reading this has already seen this series.
But it was basically everything together. The Storyline was fantastic, the twist plot was masterly. The acting was very believable and I was really sitting on the tip of my chair wondering how this would wind out. And the visual effects were good in place. Not too much so it was believable. I just liked the whole of it.
So for so far I would say, Watch it. It's not as creepy as it looks :)

Off watching the second season.  'till my next blog!
