Blu-ray Reviews of Supernatural: The Complete Third Season [Blu-ray]
Blu-ray Review: Exceptional but shorter third season still worthwhile for fans on Blu-ray with a sharper transfer
Summary: 4 Stars
Those Winchester boys always flirt with danger. The third season of "Supernatural" added some unusual twists that made for an entertaining, exceptional third season for the show.
The upside--a terrific looking Blu-ray transfer with plenty of detail, rich, dark blacks and a nice smooth look to the show. Digital imperfections are minimal and hardly noticable unless you're really looking for them. Sound is also extremely good with hice use of the surround channels. Audio is in Dolby Digital Surround 5.1 NOT in TrueHD.
The extras are the same as on the regular DVD set although this is packaged in a Blu-ray multi-disc pack as oppposed to the cardboard packaging for the regular DVD and in standard definition for the ones I've watched so far.
There's a booklet with info about each episode and also digital download as part of this package (although it's not from disc but, instead, like the original DVD from iTunes.
The extras are the same as the conventional It would have been nice to have the option with BDLive for this to post your own commentary tracks (since this season doesn't have them--instead we get "A Closer Look" featurettes with the writers/producers/directors discussing the making of the episode, challenges they faced and inspiration for them)or to have a commentary track with PIP but that's a minor quibble.
The only downside for season three was that we got fewer episodes because of the Writer's Strike but that didn't prevent creator Eric Kripke along with producers/writers Sera Gamble, Ben Edlund (creator of one of my fav cult shows "The Tick"), producer/director Kim Manners ("The X-Files")and producer/director Robert Singer ("Lois and Clark", "Midnight Caller" and "Monk" among other projects) from presenting one of the strongest seasons yet of the series.
Dean (Jensen Ackles) has sold his soul to save his brother Sam (Jared Padalecki)from death. Sam devotes himself to try and find a way out for his brother from this binding deal and they find a new adversary--Lillith a major, nasy demon. They find Ruby (Katie Cassidy) a demon WHO is surprisingly on their side and instructs Sam (and a very reluctant Dean) in how to fight Lillith. The Winchester boys also must face off against Bela (Laruan Cohan)who often allies herself with them so she can extract her own pound of flesh--she's a dealer in supernatural curios and makes millions doing it. The third season also finds the boys facing the seven deadly sins incarnate, being pursued by their nemesis the hunter Gordon (Sterling K. Brown), being caught by the FBI (and facing an oncoming army of dark assassins working for Lilith), changlings that infiltrate a neighborhood, dealing with those goofy "ghostchasers" who shoot a pilot for their own TV series and also manage to stir a very nasty ghost in the process.
The variation on "Groundhog Day" took an unusual twist midway through which improved the quality of that episode. It moves from comic to sobering and quite moving as Sam copes with Dean's fate and learns what caused them to repeat the same day over and over again.
It's a terrific set and well worth picking up on Blu-ray although I will admit that even with the reduced price, it's still pretty steep for only 16 episodes. Still, it's 16 strong episodes (although there is a clinker or two most nicely mix horror, suspense and humor).
Highly recommended. Those with little ones should be warned, however, that there is occasional bad langauge and some pretty scary situations.
