Amazon.co.uk Review: Three seasons into Supernatural and brothers Sam and Dean Winchester are still attracting trouble. For the pair have a talent for battling the kind of spirits and creatures that are best kept locked away in nightmares--and it’s fair to say their journey has taken its toll on them.
As we join them in the third season of Supernatural, their travels and adventures take in a mixture of increasingly intriguing threats and foes. Among the highlights is a man who has become trapped within his own mind, the day that Sam continually has to live over and over again (Groundhog Day style) and a sinister threat to Dean that underpins much of the series. Not forgetting a Christmas episode with a bit of a different feel to it than your usual festive special...
While the series was shortened a little due to the writers’ strike that was ongoing in America while it was being made, the sixteen episodes in this Supernatural boxset nonetheless offer ample entertainment. Cleverly weaving together action, comedy and horror, it builds and improves on the second season, and while it may rush things a little come the finale, it’s still a terrific and underrated programme. Here’s looking forward to season four. --Jon Foster

Rating: - ~Supernatural at it's FINEST~
although having 6 episodes shorter than the previous 2 seasons...it is more than made up in the sheer quality of the episodes.
season 1 and 2 basically got the whole how set up and we all got the j hist of what was going on, the pace was fast yet it had never got the sheer spectacular standard that Buffy the Vampire Slayer set for all the shows in this genre.
but Supernaturals' third outing is quite a remarkable one which can be extremely scary one moment and then utterly camp the next.
this season has made me a dedicated fan...yes the first 2 need to be seen first but here is where everything kicks off.
all 17 episodes are on top form.
also contains 3 of the greatest episodes ever-A Very Supernatural Christmas,Just ... Read More:
Rating: - A rewiew from Mrs Dean Winchester....I wish
I absolutly love this series of Supernatural. It was so funny! My fav episodes are the one in which Dean keeps dying (especially when Sam kills him with the axe)and Ghostfacers. The comedy episodes are my favourite I think this is when the actors are at their best. Althought I also love the episode in the prison where the FBI agent realises Sam and Dean have been telling the truth the whole time. I will admit some of the conversations between Dean and Sam about Dean's deal get a little re-petative but that's a writing issue the actors can't be blamed. I dont understand how anyone can say that the acting in this series is bad it always seems fine to me. People complainted that the show isnt as good as the x files (which I love) but it's a completly ... Read More:
Rating: - a year in the life
for the uninitiated: supernatural is a series about two brothers who hunt monsters across america. they drive around in a vintage 60's car, living from motel to motel on credit cards. their family was torn apart by monsters when they were young and their lives have been forever changed as a result.young brother sam is a serious and smart guy. older brother dean is a devil may care live for the moment ladies man. they may be opposites. they may fight and quareel. but they're brothers. so they stick together.
and that's what makes what could have been just a lame x files clone into a truly entertaining series. that and quality acting from the two leads, and the fact that although the show does have story arcs it also has a complete story ... Read More:
Rating: - The Winchester brothers are back on the highway to hell.
The great thing about season three is it's attachable supernatural charm; throwing you in and out with suspense and bewilderment. Season three brings back old enemies, mediocre but encouraging new characters; adding more mischievous humor, wit and fueled story lines. What adds quality to season three is the fantastic acting, effects, set, writing and camera work. The relationship and chemistry between Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki still works incredibly well and still makes you laugh silly, these two really do make the show worth watching. The new characters Bella and Ruby add an evil spice to the mix; Bella and Ruby are not necessarily convincing and do become quite predictable at points in the show. However they have left open doors for season ... Read More:
Rating: - Bizarre but still enjoyable.
when i first watched the third series of supernatural i hated it. I thought the show had practically destroyed itself with it's over the top, rediculous storylines, stupid humour and far too much gore! Indeed i was watching a different show, compared to the first two seasons, which i loved. However as a true supernatural fan i had to purchase this box set as towards the end it did pick up and the ending was fantastic. Boy am i glad i did! Watching it a second time i found the episodes far better. I just had to except the fact that the show had changed. Once you except the gore, silly humour and far fetched stories you find yourself being entertained. I had also forgot how the relationship between the Winchesters was tested and the emotion they both went ... Read More:
