This is what I love about it. The "Two-tough-guys-who-can-occasionally-have-that-soft-moment thing. Buffy had not this. The male leads in that were sort of fawning (Xander), dark and mysterious (Angel) or just plain bat**** crazy (Spike, my favourite character). And then there was Giles. But the way Sam and Dean keep up the tough exterior but occasionally allow their love for each other to show is really great writing, and Chula, I can't say after season three because that's as far as I went (I lterally thought to myself: this is too good, I don't want to get to the end so I'll stop now and let some build up ---- was about two years or more now!) but up to then there are some major surprises and twists coming, so beware of spoilers.
I like too that the writers are not trying to pair them off with a girl every other episode, so that when it does happen, it's far more special and it means more. Really reinforces the loneliness of life on the road as "hunters". And not that kind, Batty!
