Well, this could be a Buffy/Angel fan’s perfect Supernatural episode.  This week, the Winchesters fight against post-apocalyptic monsters takes a turn when they encounter some blood-suckers who have taken up residence in a small town (no, not that other CW vampire town — although that would be interesting).  They’ve faced off with vampires before, but this time the blood-sucking gets a little too close for comfort as one of the brothers gets bitten and maybe doomed to a lifetime of nighttime.

It would have been apropos for Ben Edlund to have penned this episode, but this vampire tale it was written by Brett Matthews — who is quite familiar with the Whedonverse in his own right.  In addition to working on Buffy, Angel and Firefly, Brett Matthews also co-wrote the comic miniseries, Those Left Behind , which he co-wrote with the master of all vampire writers, Joss Whedon, was a story that bridged the gap between the Firefly series and the Serentiy movie.
 

Now with that pedigree, I know one thing for sure — the vamps in this week’s episode should be able to kick the crap out of those sparkly movie franchise vamps.  But heaven (or Castiel, um or Grandpa) help the fanged ones when they sink their teeth into a Winchester.

Not only is it a big night for Smallville (celebrating its 200th episode) on The CW, but it is a big night for Supernatural as well.  This week’s episode brings us a Bobby-centric story, an awesome guest star (fan favorite Mark Sheppard) and the long awaited (for me, at least) directorial debut of Jensen Ackles.
