"Fair"

So so episode. Nothing to wright home about. I like Bella but as a guest star not as a regular, although the same can be said about the Dean character, his lines are basically the same each and every episode. As with many episodes close but no banana, the writers are too converned about getting as many young girls in tight clothes in each and every episode, even if they add nothing to the overall story, when most times they detract from the plotline. There is so much potential in this series, and I really do like the stars...but the writing sometimes borders of the silly.moreless

Hands down the worst episode of the show.

"Poor"

By PabloExobar, Jul 04, 2011 Report Abuse

This episode was just really weak, and for only one reason: Bela.

Honestly, her character is almost completetly useless, and almost everyone hates her(the fans)

Next to Ruby I dont even see why the writers felt the need to add another cast member.

Another problem this episode had was the episodic case. It was just really dull. Ghost ships are cool but this episode really made it feel... boring. It wasn't creepy, there wasn't any scares or overall story arc progression.

And on the top of that, we had a horny lady who got a rather long scene int he middle of the episode for no reason, and Bela turning the show into some sort of soap opera. In the end, a weak attempt to make her character intriguing,.moreless

Eric Kripke vowed his disappointment with the episode in many occasions. In the Season Three Companion, we can read: "I would certainly put Red Sky at Morning on my list of worst Supernatural episodes". While it's true that the frenzy ghost wasn't that much scary and that the whole plot seems a little too far fetched, I really liked the episode: the script is sassy and smart, the ball scenes were hilarious and classy and, most importantly, the relationship between Sam and Dean, and their struggling about Dean's deal, is believably portrayed and very well written. In addition, I must admit that I really adore Bela Talbot: not only Lauren Cohan is an amazing actress, but the role is also really fascinating - a cat-burglar with a penchant for rich clientele, spicy talk and expensive outfits is somehow the perfect fit for the two Winchester Boys.moreless

Weak monster plot, but strong character development

I never thought I'd think this, but Ruby and Bela are both decent additions to the show. It gives Sam and Dean something new to deal with besides the same old demons and ghosts. This episode had the focus on Bela, and once again, she's up to her usual tricks.

I thought the monster plot this week was very average. The whole haunted ghost ship sailing around the bay and people dying because of it just didn't keep my interest. As I said in my summary, it was the character development that I was focused on. Since Bela is a new character, I'm pretty intrigued about whatever goes on with her. I won't say she's a bad character, because she's definitely interesting and makes me want to learn more about her. I think she's just annoying.. which makes the show good; that they're able to create a character that we love to hate.

If they could've just chopped the whole ghost plot out and replaced it with something a little more intense, it would've been better. But other than that, not bad.. Bela's becoming a little more enjoyable to watch episode by episode.moreless

"Perfect"

By Canogaparkcindy, Dec 18, 2008 Report Abuse

I am very glad Bela got in touch with the Supernatural as she helped the Winchester boys with the ghost ship. But I always knew she still had something up her sleeve,. she was helping for an ulterior motive of course, money. And I thought Bela changed. And after almost dying from a spirit. I hope she has learned her lesson. But Bela does add some spice to the show, With the British or Aussie accent, I can never tell. The plot about the ghost ship, I'm surprised they haven't done this years ago. That would be the first thing that came to my mind. The special effects wee amazing. Hopefully we'll be seeing more of Bela.moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- When the third victim "drowns" in his car and Sam and Dean fail to save him, Sam checks his pulse and immediately comes to the conclusion that the man is dead. After such a short time after the "drowning," Sam should have performed CPR first since there is a possibility of saving the person even if he lost his pulse. Edit
- If Gert and Sam are "already halfway there," meaning to the charity ball, as Bela says while waiting for Dean to change into his tux, then why do Bela and Dean arrive at the charity ball first, while Gert and Sam arrive minutes later? Edit
- At the three-minute mark of the show the first victim is taking a shower. She has no shampoo in her hair but after looking out the shower door and just before she is choked from behind she has shampoo in her hair but only for a brief second then its gone again. Edit
