I've sold my soul to Supernatural

Oh, Supernatural.  Anything I say about you now will seem very redundant after this eloquent post, which says everything I want to say.  But since I’ve now finished both Seasons 1 and 2, I feel like I have to verbalize my love for this show.

 When I first started watching, it seemed like a pretty straightforward kind of “hot-boys-hunt-demons” sort of thing, something like a weekly mild slasher movie with blood and guts and frights.  Sure, it had these brothers with an interesting bond and a really cool car, but nothing special.  Not really my thing, either.

 When did it become about something so much deeper?  When did these characters become so rich and start to change and develop?  When did the mythology of this world become almost as fascinating as that of Veronica Mars and, despite the mysteries, far more understandable (and follow-able, if that’s a word) than Lost? 

( Spoilers of a sort, I suppose )
