When a television series opens its new season with a lead character crawling out of his grave after escaping Hell itself, one cannot help but wonder: how will the rest of the episodes ever follow that? In the case of Supernatural's fourth season, the answer comes from above with the introduction of Misha Collins's Castiel, an angel dispatched to rescue Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) from infernal torment and reunite him with brother Sam (Jared Padalecki) for a very special mission. That quest--to stop the demonic Lilith from opening the 66 seals required to bring Lucifer to Earth and launch the Apocalypse--forms the backbone of the 22 episodes, which takes some fairly adventurous risks with the core of the show. Chief among these is the rift that deepens between Dean and Sam as they attempt to work together, despite their divergent destinies; also agreeable is the season's tonal shift away from its previous Monster of the Week format (though that's still intact for many episodes) and toward a single, more ambitious story and thematic arc. The sea change deepens the show's drama, intensifies the level of suspense and stakes in each episode, and pushes it several big steps away from its teen-friendly origins. Of course, there's still plenty of the show's trademark irreverence and humor to be found, especially in the clever "Monster Movie," which pits the brothers against a Shapeshifter that takes the form of classic movie fiends, and "The Monster at the End of This Book," where Sam and Dean discover a comic book with plot lines very similar to their own lives. By the time Supernatural's fourth season reaches its cliffhanger ending with "Lucifer Rising" (the title neatly sums up the plot), viewers should be fairly hungering for the next episode--a good sign that a veteran series is still hitting its stride. Extras on the six-disc set include commentary for three episodes: "In the Beginning," with executive producer Eric Kripke and writer Jeremy Carver; "When the Levee Breaks," with director Robert Singer and writer Sara Gamble; and "Lucifer Rising" with Kripke. Extended scenes are also available for several episodes, and the features are rounded out by a trio of somewhat ponderous featurettes on the concepts of Heaven, Purgatory, and Hell, as depicted in scenes from the show and discussed by its writers, theologians, paranormal investigators, and the like. Clocking in between 10 and 25 minutes apiece, the docs feel padded and somewhat undernourished in the information department. However, they're unlikely to detract from one's enjoyment of this stellar season. --Paul Gaita

 Pretty Good. March 8, 2010
norma_jean (chicago)
The Fourth Season of Supernatural is pretty good, but it is starting to get really cheesy! The first three seasons are golden but this fourth season doesn't quite hit the mark. I think it's a good thing the fifth season will be the last one or else it should just be turned into a soap opera.
 SO GOOD IT'S SCARY! March 8, 2010
Charlie Gee (Maine, USA)
The saga of the Winchester brothers continue in Season 4 and the series just keeps getting better with each passing year. The forces bent on turning Sam and Dean into enemies are hard at work and it is this tension (will they succeed?) that keeps the viewer watching episode to episode. This season the boys get visited by Angels; the question is: are they truly here to do good? Also included is a great episode that is shot in black and white and which harkens back to the good ole days of the old Universal horror movies; it's a real treat. We also discover that there is a third Winchester son. As with the previous seasons, there are plenty of monsters, ghouls, and creatures of the night to keep the Winchester boys busy...but it is their changing relationship that is the real point of interest.
This season comes in plastic inner packaging with the DVDs separated onto plastic holders, so the packaging isn't quite as sturdy as previous volumes. Still included, however, is the program guide and some great special features which explore the history of Heaven and Purgatory. For any SUPERNATURAL fan, this season is a must-have. After watching all the episodes don't be surprised if you want to watch them all over again immediately. It's that good!
 DISAPPOINTED!! March 3, 2010

I had been eagerly awaiting the release of this season's DVD but when I watched it I was VERY disappointed!! I will think twice before I purchased any subsequent seasons. The writing and the stories (especially the one with the "stuffed teddy bear" were of a lower caliber and dismal in comparison to the previous seasons.
The only highlight in my opinion, was when "Dean' is singing (lip synching) on the top of a car (I don't think this was a part of the written material) but it was hysterical and very well performed!
 Season 4? Fantastic! The Blu-Ray format? Not so much. February 27, 2010
summersfall789 (Toronto, ON Canada)
The reason for the 3 star rating isn't for the show itself. I love every season of Supernatural and this one was no exception. It had me hooked from the moment Dean's hand burst out of the earth in Lazarus Rising to Sam's urgent whisper of "He's coming" in Lucifer Rising and every cat scream and Chuck the Prophet in between.
It's the format itself. While I appreciate the fact that I can see "Dean's" freckles on occasion and the crispness of the images is outstanding, that means I can also count the pores of any actor on screen for more than a 12 seconds. Which is nice...I guess. =/
Maybe it's my Blu-Ray player, but I keep having problems with the Supernatural Blu-ray discs. Sometimes I'll put one into the player and it'll jump right into the middle of the 3rd or 4th episode of that disc. It won't give me the option to go back to the beginning of the episode or the disc. I have to take it out and wait a bit before I try running it again. It's really weird and a pain to deal with. This doesn't happen with any other Blu ray disc I use in the player. Just the Supernatural Blu-Ray discs.
Aside from that, the other features aren't really anything special. I was expecting something fantastic to be waiting in the extras. There is nothing there that couldn't be found on the dvd. And to be quite honest, The whole experience has turned me off to Blu-Rays. If I had to buy this all over again, I would have just bought the DVD. In fact, I might just be tempted enough to buy it after I return this.
