Os Winchesters

I went into this without high expectations, and it did surprise me a bit that it wasn't bad. The actors are likeable enough -- I was more impressed with the supporting characters than John and Mary who seemed a bit bland. So far the voiceover from Jensen Ackles doesn't really add anything. There's of course the issue of the whole John and Mary story being retconned. As others have mentioned, the VFX isn't great but then again the SPN leviathans were pretty bad. I'll keep watching in hopes that it may provide something more compelling, but as it is its not a bad way to spend your time with a show.

Sorry, Jensen but you should go back being Soldier Boy (or do something else). That was a good role but so far this show is absolute garbage and a waste of time. It brings nothing new to the established lore.

Bad acting, bad casting, zero chemistry, insufferable characters, stupid dialogues, nonsensical behavior, boring and illogical plot, copied premise, "blurry" image, cheap CGI, uninteresting monsters, talk-diarrhea about feelings, Scooby Doo imitation without the dog, usual CW teenage trash... Should I continue?

I simply cannot find anything good in this cringy Supernatural afterthought.

The ending of the first season is a colossal disappointment. Such a lame way the deal with the "big" bad. Some fan-service is not enough to make it good.

I was looking forward to The Winchesters, but to be honest, I think this was made for a teenage audience, Supernatural was an absolutely brilliant series with good acting, story, and direction but The Winchesters just haven't got what it takes to hold an audience's interest, the main characters Mary and John were just OK, I didn't feel any connection to them, it all gives off a Scooby-Doo vibe, I was expecting to see shaggy, Velma, Fred, and Daphne come running round the corner. I may watch the rest of season one episodes but I'm not expecting a great deal this is one of those shows that is canceled after the first season.

This series is acceptable, with hopes that it gains traction soon. Characters take time to develop, but a BIG improvement would be to dump the Carlos character. The acting and chemistry aren't all that great, but Supernatural wasn't either at the start and got better over time.

Has anyone else been turned off by the incessant sighing that Sam Winchester (Jared Padalecki) did in Supernatural? I noticed that John Winchester is doing that a bit, too. I hope it stops!

Anyway, part of what made Supernatural so good was story lines and characters that were interesting and added that ongoing evil presence to be fought against. Let's see something like them in the Winchesters, soon.

As an original supernatural fan, this show is hurting me. It doesnt come close to the original at all.

The acting is stiff and feels forced.

Also, the show has still to explain how the timeline and story is different to what we know from supernatural. Their dad didnt start hunting until their mother died.

Im also getting to much of a vibe that the cast is politcally correct. And it shadows the story.

Ill give it a chance for season 2, as sam and dean also needed some time to grow into their characters, But Im not keeping my fingers crossed.

If you need something to play in the background, then this is a show for it.
