This was pretty good. Did a search and did not find anyone having discussed the show. This surprised me given that Jensen Ackles is in it.

The show is fairly standard but does a descent job of throwing the viewer off from the obvious. It also has a format that I have never seen in a season based show. It does an entire story arc in one season but then it continues on to the post of the arc. Then it actually starts the second arc in a way that would make you think season 2. Then it ends with the cliff hanger well into what you might think would be halfway through season 2.

It is worth the watch as the actors do a good job.

The entire season is out so it can be binged.

The cliff hanger ending really pissed me off.
FYI I also didn't see a thread for this show.

I just finished this tonight. Really enjoyed it, it’s not the greatest show ever but I thought it was solid all around without any really weak spot. I thought the cast was good.

I was surprised by the show format with the first arc finishing and then starting a 2nd arc, I honesty thought it would be a mini arc that would actually end this season. While it became obvious by the last episode that it wouldn’t I was kind of upset by how much of a cliffhanger it ended on.

That said I looking forward to seeing season 2 whenever that comes out.
