The Review
With so many televisions shows dealing with supernatural beings, paranormal activities, and pure evil, it’s hard to believe that any
show can be unique and different in its own right. Yet, that’s exactly what you get with Supernatural.
While some may argue that it hints of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Charmed, or other WB series, I must disagree. I found
Supernatural to be unique in that it doesn’t try to make fighting evil fashionable. In fact, the main characters, Dean and Sam, spend
most of their time living in a beat up old Impala, sleeping in dives, and using more head knowledge than gadgets.
A drawback, for some critics, is the fact that each episode lacks set creativity. They claim that each episode has all the makes of a
budget film and should offer more than the dark, dreary four scene episodes. I, for one, have grown tired of special effects and fancy
gadgets or scenery taking the place of good acting and find Supernatural’s episodes a refreshing change.
Another drawback seems to be the fact that the storyline doesn’t seem to follow logical progression and instead does a little jumping
around from one episode to another. This can cause a little confusion on the viewers end, but I rather like this fresh approach since
real life isn’t always presented in nice little packages.
Defining Moment
In Season 2, Dean loses the battle against evil when his brother dies at the hand of the enemy. Grief-stricken, Dean makes the ultimate
sacrifice and trades his life for his brother’s—giving Dean only one year left to live. His reasoning was simple: he had already died
when his father gave up his life for Dean’s, so giving up Dean’s life for his brother Sam’s wasn’t the right choice—after all, he was living on borrowed time anyway. Of course, when Sam found out, he was heartbroken and determined to find a way to break the deal while keeping both brothers alive.
This episode hit home for me this year as I dealt with the loss of my mother and my sister-in-law—who died approximately a year apart.
There isn’t a parent, a close friend, or a strong relationship that wouldn’t wish the return of their loved ones. And there are even
some of us out there who can’t help but wonder what it would take to get that person back—even if it meant switching places. But as
this season shows “be careful what you wish for” because what you expect may not be what you get and sometimes, getting your wish comes
with grave consequences.
Your Task
This week, take the time to watch an episode, and then spend time in your Bible to determine what the Bible really says about demons,
paranormal activities, and supernatural powers. Develop a skit, a worksheet, and a lesson that explains truth from fiction. Then sit
down with your children and discuss these truths.
