Supernatural: Season 2
L**.
Supernatural continues to rock!!!!
The second season of the hit TV series Supernatural on DVD does not disappoint. It takes the viewer on a wild ride through various demons of the supernatural. The writing and special effects continue to Wow! this season. The acting is incredible by the two male leads, Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, who manage to be funny yet credible and are overall a joy to watch act (and of course who are ALWAYS nice to look at). All 22 episodes are here. A list follows:Episode 1 In My Time of Dying An unexpected twist to last year's season finale. YOu will enjoy!! A great commentary also awaits with voices and with complex chinese subtitles with Jared, Jensen, and Kim Manners who is the Director of the episode.Episode 2 Everybody loves a clown This episode plays into many people's hatred of clowns. Very eerie for me especially to watch, as I hate clowns.Episode 3 Bloodlust A repeat character Gordon is introduced here. The episode is about vampiresEpisode 4 Children should not play with dead things. About life, and death, and more death......Episode 5 Simon Said A preview of what will happen with people who are suddenly developing psychic powers (of whom Sam is one)Episode 6 No Exit The ghost of a real life serial killer returns to harm his old haunts.Episode 7 The usual suspects Dean's past comes back to haunt him in this episode.Episode 8 Crossroad blues Dean and Sam investigate an area where supposily one can make deals with the devil.Episode 9 Croatoan A virus affects a small town. VEry unsettling end.Episode 10 Hunted Gordon returns, hunting after Sam, due to his psychic abilities.Episode 11 Playthings Invisible playmates may be demonic as demonstrated by this episode. And I had no idea that my imaginary friend "Hermie" when I was growing up could be like this!! I guess I was lucky.Episode 12 Nightshifter More shapeshifting fun.Episode 13 Houses of the holy Sam feels he has been "touched by an angel."Episode 14 Born under a bad sign Sam's dark side may have emerged in this episode about his lost weekEpisode 15 Tall Tales There is nothing like a "trickster" spirit to rustle up things at a University.Episode 16 Roadkill Roadkill is about ghostkill (big surprise with a show that has the name of "Supernatural")Episode 17 Heart Werewolves aplenty in this episode.Episode 18 Hollywood Babylon Ghostly happenings on a Hollywood horror movie set.Episode 19 Folsom Prison Blues Dean goes to jail in this episode (and presumably did not pass go, or collect his 200.00. I just hope he did not bend over for a bar of soap.).Episode 20 What is and what should never be A genie grants a wish for Dean. Includes a commentary with the creator of the show Eric KripkeEpisode 21 All Hell Breaks Loose Part 1 The psychic kids meet, the start of mass destruction. Good commentary (again with complex chinese subtitiles if you want that ) by Eric Kripke, Robert Singer the Director of the episode and Sera Gamble the writer.Episode 22 All Hell Breaks Loose Part 2 Big consequences for Dean as the finale of this season concludes, and really gets you ready for season 3.....I can't tell you how much I am enjoying the Supernatural television series. Everything else on this DVD is great as well. The two documentaries "The Devil's Road Map" and "The Episode from Hell: the making of all Hell Breaks Loose Part 2" are very informative and entertaining. Most of all I enjoyed the Gag real. Buy it, you'll like it! I can't wait to watch Season 3, recently released on DVD.

even better than Season 1
I have become an addict to this show. The season opener is fantastic withDean wandering the hospital and nobody can see him and communicating through a board game. It is fascinating and creepy all at the same time. Playthings is wonderful and I love how everybody assumes that they are gay and Dean cannot figure out why. It is funny yet not as I had the "pleasure" of experiencing that assumption with my sister from the mind of somebody else, amazes me what people assume sometimes. Once again you would swear that they are brothers in real life. They have such a chemistry it is amazing to watch. I like the werewolf episode where it turns out that the werewolf is female and Sam sleeps with her and and has to kill her at the end.That would have to be tough to say the least. I think the funnier part of that episode is watching Dean at a strip bar transfixed by the pole dancer right above him. I laughed when he said he had his eyes peeled. Tall Tales is my absolute favorite one of the season. I watched it 3 times just to see them fight and argue like an old married couple and the completely bizarre things that were happening. It is funny beyond belief. The actor who plays the trickster is good even if he looks like a refugee from 1987. I like the Hollywood Babylon episode with the reference to Gilmore Girls(which I never watched). You could see it weird Sam out hearing that. Let alone Dean being the ultimate PA with the actress from the "movie" they were making. The part of the gag reel referring to that one is all the more hilarious. Finally the Seaon ender. All Hell's Breaking Loose pt 2. It was heartbreaking watching Sam get killed on pt 1 and watching Dean go make a deal with demons to bring Sam back is wrenching to watch. What these 2 brothers will do for one another is a bond all siblings should aspire to. They take it to the extreme, but it is unbreakable no matter how much they fight and argue. They do that very convincingly so that makes you think that they are related. They are very distinctive in their personalities, Dean being the action taking, gun slinging, hard drinking, womanizing(he loves women, just does not lead a lifestyle that lends to relationships, which is understandable). He is fearless to any outsiders and is not saddled with a whole lot of angst. Sam is the angst ridden and thoughtful really buff book smart brother.Though as the season goes on Sam is developing a harder shell and Jared Padalecki does a fantastic job showng it. He takes his brothers guff and sometimes really does hand it back. I can see that Dean is not easy to render speechless with no smartass comeback. They really do compliment one another and it is a joy to watch. I would give this season 10 stars again if I could. I cannot recommend this series enough.

Spinechilling Sexy Fun
I have been addicted to this series since it first hit the screen. I love the humour, the scariness, the wacky storylines and the amazing relationship that these two brothers share. The first time I saw Jensen Ackles cry on-screen I wanted to jump into the telly and kiss away his tears! Phwoar! Tough, sassy, sexy AND sensitive? What more could a girl want?Okay, seriously; the series ticks boxes when it comes to humour and the ability to convey stories that we might consider urban myths with interesting and amusing ease. The lead characters are likeable and the productions are not too high tech that one loses the sense of being lost in the moment of fear or laughter. And I have indeed laughed at many of the stories - usually after coming out from behind the sofa!I love Supernatural and am mad as hell that Bravo stole my boys from terrestrial (did I spell that right?) television! I am just going to have to find room on my shelves for every episode of this fantastic series at home.

Supernatural- season 2
After the excellent season 1, Supernatural season 2 only appears to get better. The main draw of Supernatural is the chemistry between the two leads. Believable as brothers, their inter-play and acting is a huge attraction to the show. Excellent one-off episodes complimented by the story arc of the yellow eyed demon make for an interesting season. The humorous episodes are hilarious, laughing out loud hilarious. 'Nightshifter', 'Tall Tales' and 'Folsom Prison Blues' are very funny episodes, but are all very close together in the season, meaning the overall menace of the yellow-eyed demon plotline is lost slightly.The final three episodes are very strong and slightly frightening, and the best of the season. However there are some problems (which are actually addressed by the end of the season!). The concept of the roadhouse, for a show based around travelling by car, doesn't suit the show. An unsatisfying first episode death is wrapped up nicely in the last episode. The episode 'Croatoan' didn't really have an ending, and felt rushed and badly written. And Ellen Harvelle's daughter, Jo, whilst being extremely attractive, isn't believeable as a potential demon-hunter, so her appearances are cut short. But these are my only main 'gripes'.The last disc has some great and insightful extra features, and overall a brilliant season, can't wait for season 3.

Manufacturering fault with discs, had to return would not play.
Had to return because there's a fault with the discs, there seems to be an abnormality with a couple of them. I was watching them then it suddenly paused and would not play, I pressed stop and tried again returning to the scene before where it stopped and same thing happened. I ejected the disc and there seems to be like some sort of ripple on them. Not Amazon's fault but a fault in manufacturing.

Best series on TV
I recommend the Supernatural series to anyone as its great. The two main actors Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki are superb. This complete series 2 takes you on a rollercoaster of tongue in cheek horror or on occasion very gritty paranormal. Its action packed and there is never a dull moment. If you like science fiction like X Files, Angel or Fringe you will like Supernatural. This complete series 2 set is good value for money too.
