Fanfiction Writers Watch *SUPERNATURAL* – 1x3 "Dead in the Water" First Time Reaction

This Dead in the Water episode was full of red herrings! At first, we thought it was about the Loch Ness monster (and we were so confident about it, too lol), but turned out it was about Bill? But no, it was actually about the Sheriff? But no! It was about both!!!

Great plot twists throughout (also, a simulation of Dean being a wholesome dad with Lucas? Absolutely cute).

Thanks to your input, we've decided to continue watching Supernatural! We've heard your responses and are currently weighing in on whether to watch all 15 seasons, 5 seasons only, or all seasons but with selected episodes. We're going to keep watching until episode 5 to get the vibe of the show and decide then.

In the meantime, feel free to let us know your thoughts about this episode or the reaction! ❤️ Were you clowned by thinking it was the Loch Ness monster, too? Or did you have other theories when you first watched it? Truly sorry for the botched audio at some points in the pre-reaction discussion, but hopefully it's still audible to y'all. All in all, thank you so much for the love and being with us through this ride so far ❤️
