I think this episode is one of the best, cause of sam using his power. We actually can see what he can do with it.

I was hoping Eric Kripke would dig into the backstory on John and Mary Winchester, but I'd almost set aside the hope, since it seemed a bit of a stretch to pull this off without disrupting the novel-like feel to the set up of the series. But... with an angel now as a recurring character in the series, the possibilities are expanded.
I'll admit, at first it was a bit of a stretch for me when it turns out Mary Winchester had ties to the kind of life John later would lead, but I rode with the idea and I'm glad I did: what at first seemed hokey winds up becoming the stuff of Greek tragedy. There's a few flaws: some of the slang in the dialogue isn't the sort of terminology that would have been used in the 1970s, but it's a minor thing I can easily set aside. Good, solid episode and while it fills in some of the backstory as to why the Yellow-Eyed Demon came for Sam as an infant in the first place, it still leaves you with a lot of questions that you're looking forward to seeing answered as the season unfolds...

This is the only TV series out there that entertains with both horror and heart at the same time. It's a gore fest almost every week with a high body count, but the brothers Winchester's tortured co-dependent relationship is what will keep people addicted and coming back for more every week. Laugh and cry with the Winchester boys as they speed down the highway to meet their destiny. Season four is the best yet.

The Winchester brothers are back, this time trying to discover who brought Dean back from the dead and why. This is an excellent show for horror fans who like good characterization and lots of family drama. Jensen Eckles is wonderful as stoic older brother Dean, and Jared P is awesome as well. The horror is decent without being too graphic of frightening, so mature teens can enjoy this too.
I own all the seasons so far, and this one is off to an excellent start.

When season 3 of this show ended, Dean had been ripped apart by the hounds of hell and his spirit/soul was ensnared in some techno-web where he bled and screamed for his brother.
When we begin THIS season, he's been dead four months. There's no preamble here--he just comes back, immediately. It's not clear how or why; it's only clear that something pretty powerful brought him back (and decimated the landscape around him in the process).
This episode is VERY nicely put together, from the reunion scenes with Bobby and Sam to the end scene where Dean finds out precisely who brought him back (and wow, what a cutie his savior is!) and why, all the emotional pieces come together beautifully but not melodramatically, and there's humor and suspense throughout.
The coming season is set up, and there's enough in this one episode to tell us that season four will have more than the usual share of conflict between the brothers and between Dean and his fatalism.
Bravo!
