Supernatural

Sam and Dean follow some coordinates in their father's journal, ending up in the woods, where they start investigating the disappearance of some campers. Soon they find out they're dealing with a Wendigo, a famous Native American legend. Wendigos are creatures that used to be a human who engaged in cannibalism.

My thoughts: I thought this episode was OK, and further expands on the lore of the series in a meaningful way, as well as expanding on Sam and Dean's relationship. There's a little part where they investigate Jessica's death as well.

Brief Summary: Sam and Dean are two brothers who witnessed their mothers horrible violent death via some sort of supernatural event. Later in life, Sam manages to escape the life of hunting monsters that his father raised him in, attending college. Dean shows up at his brother's college doorstep telling him that their dad is missing. Following clues from a weird voicemail left by their father, they go to a small town and find a "woman in white" who is a vengeful ghost that targets Sam and that they have to terminate.

Thoughts: It's by no means a strong start to this series, having weak cinematography, Jared and Jensen haven't settled into their characters yet. The woman in white is called back to in the final season as well, which is a nice touchstone. From the very beginning, however, you see the brothers relationship that plays out over the next 15 seasons, in this very first episode.
