I promised to start doing some more reviews on things outside of Ghostbusters. So here we are.
The WB/CW channel has been airing this series for now six seasons and we're about to see the new episodes kick off this Friday on CW. So what is this show about? Well, it's about the Winchester family; Sam and Dean. Two brothers who witnessed the tragic death of their mother when they were children' Sam was only six months old while Dean was a couple years.
The series starts off with Dean trying to convince Sam to help him track down their father, who happens to be a (paranormal) hunter and has been missing for a couple weeks. Sam is reluctant but agrees to help out for this one time. Using clues from the case that they knew their father, John Winchester was last on, the brothers deal with a homicidal ghost and manage to destroy her. After getting home, Sam finds out that his girlfriend was killed by the same demon that killed their mother and that their father was tracking.
Now to not reveal too many spoilers, Season One continues on as the brothers try to track down their father and finally do so. After that's been completed the family now faces more obstacles while trying to destroy the yellow eyed demon and then suffer a loss. The next seasons deal with Sam and Dean trying to fight off hell hounds, shapeshifters, vampires, werewolves, angels, demons, ghouls, and get this; the Apocalypse.
The monsters range from urban legends such as Bloody Mary to religious and mythical characters such as Lucifer and windigos. It's like your X-Files kind of show where there are a ghost/monster/ghoul/spirit/etc of the week.
