Recommended Thing of the Month: Supernatural
When their father goes missing, Dean Winchester seeks the aid of his younger brother Sam to find him. Following leads across the country, the siblings fight monsters and demons and save the day. But finding their father is the least of their problems...
I've always been interested in the supernatural genre, so I suppose it was kinda fitting that I gave this show a look. I haven't quite caught up on it yet - season 12 has just been commissioned, and I'm just starting season seven - but it is certainly something interesting to watch while I work on my Pearl cosplay. It is starting to sound a little like their 'beating a dead horse', or dragging it out a bit too long just to make money out of it, but with the number of monster stories out there they're not going to run out of monsters any time soon.
It does stand out in one way though - the lack of spin-offs. Many shows with such a large fandom and as many seasons under its belt would have at least one attempt at a spin off - heck, even 'Friends' had one! That failed, but that's beside the point. They introduce many other hunters, so we know that the Winchesters aren't the only ones, so why not Supernatural Australia? I wanna see a pair of Aussie gals kicking the ass of an evil Bunyip, being confused by the Yara-ma-yha-who, and getting thrown around by a Yowie!
