So I want to try to introduce someone else to the show, but I need a good discription that isn't too spoilery, but tells enough to sound interesting too...

and if you know of any fanvids which really show what Supernatural is all about (like the "The whole point" promo), then please post those as well. This guy is on the fense and a bit reluctant, but I think with some help, I can get him to atleast watch s1/2...

I had this same problem/goal a while ago, Daldos. I'm afraid I didn't come up with a good overall description, but I tried the strategy of looking for an old Season 1 promo that would maybe explain the show a little, but still leave enough mystery so that people might be interesting (which is the whole purpose of a Season 1 promo). This is the one that I liked the most, and I think it gives a pretty good general idea of what the show's about. :)

Hope that helps a little bit.

thanks seth!
