The Winchesters

Everything is there to make this show live up to the supernatural name but it's missing something to make it do just that. It's literally like Sam & Dean 2.0 in the form of their parents with substance in the plot and immediate callbacks to the supernatural show. It obvious has a ton of potential as a show but right now it's just falling flat on the expectations I had for it. I hate to say it but the real achilles heel has been the acting so far for me. It feels like a B or C style movie/show and I try to be forgiving and invested but sometimes the acting actually takes me out of the show. I guess it just needs more time to settle in and develop but right now I'm struggling to stay committed to the show. Like I said it has potential and it's not always bad but it still has some work to do to really get things going and live up to its name. I'll change my ratings when or if that happens... until then I have to be honest and say 4/10. I find myself sometimes scrolling on my phone instead of glued to the tv like I was with the OG show.
