Three Promos for Supernatural Season 6

The CW’s “Supernatural” Season 6, the show’s first without show creator/runner Eric Kripke at the helm, returns to airwaves September 24, 2010. Until then, here are three new TV promos for the coming season, which picks up where the end of Season 5 left off, with Dean living the good life with a happy family. That is, until little bro Sam returns. Complications, as they say, ensue.

Caprica Returns October 5, 2010

Supernatural Season 6 Video Promo

This “Supernatural” Season 6 promo was released about a month ago, but I didn’t get around to it, so here it is. It’s essentially a recap of the events leading up Season 5′s final confrontation with Lucifer, followed by a quick look at Dean “at home” afterwards. Nothing you haven’t seen before, and no new footage from the coming season as far as I can tell, but it certainly gets you jazzed up for Season 6.

Yup, it’s almost that time again, when the Winchester brothers return to fight the creatures of the darkness and other bad things. I have no idea how this season is going to look or feel without show creator Eric Kripke at the helm, but I’m not sure if I can really complain about the best show on TV getting another full season.
