“As a Supernatural and Bridgewater fan, I had to try this because of Ruth Connell and Genevieve Padalecki - and, of course, Misha Collins. I really, really wanted to like it, but it’s no Bridgewater - the story is boring and the majority of the characters are unlikable. Sarah is shrill and annoying and I actually cringed every time I heard her voice. Some of the other characters also routinely switch from English to Spanish and no translation is provided - listeners are just supposed to know Spanish and if they don’t they just have to miss part of the story for being ignorant (according to the show’s creators). There’s also an emphasis on social justice that is SO heavy handed that it makes the “story” unpalatable for those who just want to relax without being preached to - it starts in the first two minutes and just keeps on being beaten into you. Basically, despite the beloved actors from Supernatural the other actors and The Message bring this show down and make it a huge disappointment. It’s not fun or enjoyable and it’s a genuine slog to get to the incredibly unsatisfying end.”
