I recently acquired Supernatural based on a few positive mentions here on KIA2. I quite like it, but it's a bit... off. These sorts of shows are really about the banter and camaraderie, with the monster stuff being almost incidental. Somehow the chemistry/banter is not quite working for me.
Should I persevere?
Thanks. This is what I was wondering. If the 'chemistry' gets better, then I think it'll be a fun ride.
I can’t stress enough how bad the later seasons become. You’ll still find fun isolated episodes and even decent mini arcs here and there, but the overall decline is marked and becomes fairly intolerable in the second half of the show’s run.
Aside from one serious writing blunder, the first five season arc is some of my favorite television.
