Product Description
The thrilling and terrifying journey of the Winchester brothers continues into the sixth season. Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) spent their lives on the road, battling every kind of supernatural threat. And over the years, after dozens of bloody adventures, they finally closed in on their dark destiny. Sam and Dean learned they were to be important and prophesied participants in the Apocalypse. Together, with the help of their friends -- father-figure Bobby and fallen angel Castiel -- they managed to avert the End and defeat Destiny itself. But at a terrible cost. For Sam sacrificed himself ... imprisoned in the same fiery pit that caged Lucifer. And Dean, heartbroken and alone, was forced to pick up the pieces of his life. A year later, his past inevitably catches up to him -- in the form of Sam... mysteriously freed from his cage in hell. And Sam needs his brother to rejoin the fight -- because a new threat is rising in the dark corners and backwoods of America.

This is without a doubt Supernatural at it's best. Yes the fifth season was amazing, moving, awe inspiring and sad all at the same time, but this is the show at it's best. After the shock finale of season five closer "Swan Song" and the teasing few seconds where we see Sam is in fact not in hell, you are kept wondering at what will happen next.
At first there is a return to the monster-of-the-week format similar to the first few years of the show, though with quite a twist: namely the things they hunt are "Alphas". The first of their kind. Werewolves out on half-moons, day-walking vampires other creatures that go bump in the night. All bigger and badder than ever before.
Also of interest is the ominous undertones of Sam's return. He is back, but is it really him, or is Lucifer at the wheel? Why is Castiel being so evasive? And what is Crowley hiding?
From the opening episode "Exile on Main Street" the stories are interesting and obviously leading somewhere that is intricate enough to keep you guessing but not as confusing as the last two years worth of stories have been. Gone is the over-reliance on Biblical lore, destiny and fate. However the show still keeps its tongue very firmly in its cheek with references to the rising popularity of vampires in the media (Twilight), a look at other people's approaches at the out of the ordinary, (UFO's), an angel's intense hatred of a certain doomed cruise liner (Titanic) and of course themselves.
The highs come suddenly and usually quite inappropriately in terms of wanting to laugh at other's misfortunes, and the lows are sometimes very saddening, but this series of the show is possibly the finest yet.... Read more ›

I have loved this season just as much as the previous five. The writing, acting, directing, individual storylines and the main plot arc continue to be amazing. I would recommend this to anyone who has already watched and loved Seasons 1-5. Such a shame that this TV show continues to be underrated and hidden on Sky Living. It needs to come back to Freeview so that its popularity and number of viewers can increase again!

Season 5's climax seemed a fitting, but sad, end to a fine series. Surely no way could another follow? Oh, ye of little faith! With a flourish, along bursts Season 6 - 22 episodes crammed with excitement, horror, gore, stunning special effects - and, a particular strength, the underlying humour which occasionally becomes hilarious.
Full marks to all who keep up with the hidden agendas, ever-changing alliances, little being as it seems. I simply sat back and enjoyed the ride. Audacity rules! The Apocalypse was apparently not averted but remains on the cards. Daemons still abound (some quite charismatic). Angels engage in Civil War (free will an issue). Invasion of Purgatory may yield a very rich prize. Even featured is a twenty four hour pact with Death himself (this a moving episode). Much more besides, including spectacular deaths (and reappearances).
As ever, the Winchester brothers take on all comers - back from the dead Sam unfortunately minus his soul. (A 30 minute bonus discusses the concept of souls, hell, etc.) Admittedly some sequences are just plain nasty, notably when torture is involved. Usually, though, there is much to enjoy - especially when the show refuses to take itself seriously. Take Ep.15 - the brothers whisked into an alternative reality, they suddenly actors called Jared Padalecki and Jensen Eckles in something called "Supernatural" (Dean appalled to find he is wearing makeup). Here Misha Collins (Castiel) is especially funny. How about Ep.17 - angel Belthazar so hating Celine Dion's singing in the film, he unsinks the Titanic (problems resulting). Ep.18 has the brothers entertainingly whisked back to the Wild West of 1861, poking fun at the cliches and, of course, heading for a gun duel at noon. Jenson Eckles directs Ep.4.... Read more ›

Season 5 - Swan Song - a glimmer of light reflects off the Winchesters beloved Impala and into Lucifer/Sams eye. Sam gains control over Lucifer for the briefest of moments - then throws the Horsemens' rings to the ground and the door to the cage is opened. Sam dives in, taking Lucifer back to Hell with him....
I've been a huge fan of the show since it started - from day one, so to reach season 6 (and indeed now onto season 7) is a great milestone, especially when many other mainstream shows don't make it past season one these days.
I loved seasons 1 - 4, but on watching season 5, I wasn't quite so sure. The story line seemed to jump around, from Angels to Demons, Lucifer, weekly monsters, time travel - to be honest I found it difficult at times to follow the main plot arc. But on second viewings, and subsequently my 3rd, 4th, 5th, it has since become my favourite season!
I came into the 6th season knowing Eric Kripke, the creator, had a 5 year vision for the show and was leaving to persue other interests. Sera Gamble, who had been with the show from the start, was taking over. She promised a return to the formula of seasons 1 2 and 3 - going back to a monster of the week show. Eric was still to be consulted but Sera was to have free reign. Fans were worried - many left the show then and there before even giving Sera a real chance for season 6 - had they stayed watching - they would have had a hell of a season!
In the season opener, Exile on Main Street, you get a look at how Deans life is without Sam, one year on. He has fulfilled his promise to his brother. He went back to Lisa and her son, Ben, to try and live that normal "Apple pie life". But it's clear that the life he has is far from happy.... Read more ›
