If This Supernatural Reel Gets Sued, It'll Be for How Spot-On It Is
Even Jared Padalecki admits it.
No matter what you think of Supernatural, The CW show has already become some sort of a TV classic. Over its 15 years on screens, the show has evolved from the "monster of the week" type of thing to an apocalyptic extravaganza that has humans, angels and demons going insane at the same time, all because of the two brothers who are ready to destroy the world for each other.
Naturally, Supernatural has a lot of signature stuff that is already iconic for the show: starting with the characters' mannerisms to plot structures so familiar that one was able to tell what's going to happen in the episode before it even happened.
If anyone managed to perfectly capture it all in just one Instagram reel, it's fandom creator magicbymikaila in her short video "Supernatural: A Summary". Indeed, if you want to get a quick glimpse into the world of Supernatural and don't feel like wasting your life watching 15 seasons, you can just check out the reel.
Everything we love (and sometimes hate) Supernatural for is there: from Sam's constant urge to make Dean talk about his feelings to Castiel's "Hello Dean", and of course, the legendary "single man's tear" that Dean Winchester is so famous for.
Many fans jokingly wondered in the comments "how is this not copyright infringement" because "this is the show".
"You thought you could just upload an episode and none of us would notice?" another fan quipped in the comments.
Others noted that the creator nailed the characters' looks even better than the actors did.
Speaking of actors — Supernatural star Jared Padalecki who played Sam Winchester has noticed the reel and posted it to his story with a laughing emoji, apparently verifying it as a perfectly accurate representation of the show.
