Supernatural


Supernatural is a show I am currently watching because it has not been discontinued after 8 seasons. And as of February it has been confirmed for a 9th season!

So Supernatural is a show about two brothers who travel together investigating cases that seem to have supernatural ties to them. usually each episode begins with someone dying and the brothers, Sam and Dean, investigating. Every season brings a new big enemy or force they have to face. The plot thickens as they start introducing demons and angels. At one point they have a bunch of pagan gods on an episode. However, all the pagan gods (which include Shiva and Mercury) are horribly and brutally killed by Lucifer. 

As the story progresses, a goal develops in the show. The goal is to lock up all of the demons away to hell in order for Sam and Dean to live "normal" lives.

The younger brother, Sam, wants a normal life more than his brother Dean because the brief period where he went to Stanford (*cough, cough* Go CAL!) makes him see that there is a life beyond being a "hunter." However, Dean, having not experienced life outside of being a hunter, is afraid of losing his brother in the future if they do not have "hunting" keeping them together. 

I really enjoy this series because I like they blur the lines between good and evil. Demons and angels aren't on two different sides of the spectrum in this series. It also makes you question a lot of ideas like God and death.
