Rejoice, “Supernatural” fans: the CW has renewed “Supernatural” for a seventh season, even as Season 6 (sans creator Eric Kripke) winds down. Last we saw Dean and Sam, they were stuck in the Wild West while Castiel dealt with an angel civil war in Heaven. Or something like that. Fact is, we’ve heard a lot about that war, but haven’t seen much in terms of Sam and Dean. When are the brothers gonna get in on the action? Soon, I hope.
If “Supernatural” didn’t jump the shark two episodes ago when stars Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles were playing, well, themselves, then it’s never gonna. At this point, I don’t see the show as a “must-see” anymore, though it’s still somewhat entertaining. Then again, I’m a sucker for shows with this kind of premise, so that’s not a surprise.
Check out two preview clips from Friday’s first “Supernatural” episode of Season 6, “Exile on Main Street”.
You already saw the pics, now here is the official plot description for the first episode of “Supernatural” Season 6 from the CW:
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.
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.
If you’re one of those people wondering how it is that “Smallville” can keep going and going and going and never seem to get anywhere, apparently the CW kinda feels the same way: the network has made it prett much official that “Smallville’s” upcoming 10th season (yes, this show has been on for ten years, go figure) will also be its last.
And so it comes down to tonight’s “Swan Song”, the final episode of “Supernatural” Season 5. “Swan Song” marks the final episode where show creator Eric Kripke will be in charge, having decided to leave to pursue other endeavors now that the 5-year story arc he had planned to tell has been concluded with tonight’s season finale.
“Supernatural” season finales. Are there anything better? I dare say, NO. With the last episode of “Supernatural” Season 5 coming up later this week, it means Sam and Dean Winchester will finally confront the Lucifer for the whole ball of wax. And if they should fail, well, you can kiss your asses goodbye, then.
Who knew a show as good as “Supernatural” would manage to last for 100 episodes? Talk about bucking the trend! Usually on network TV the good ones die young and the shitty ones keep on living and living and living…
The CW’s “Supernatural” is pretty much the only decent thing on that young-people-having-sex-obsessed network that I bother to DVR. The show is currently in its fifth season and in the middle of its demon apocalypse storyline, with Satan and the Angels fighting for the survival of the planet and the boys Winchester stuck dab smack in the middle. The show’s creator and mastermind, Eric Kripke has always said that he’s planned the show as a 5-year story, with that arc wrapping up at the end of this season. Now comes word that the CW has renewed the show past the demon apocalypse storyline, which means changes are afoot.
After killing off Jo and her mom (sigh, catch you later, Alona Tal) “Supernatural” is on a bit of a holding pattern for the next few episodes, including last week’s asylum-set filler. Until the show does rebound back to its main demon apocalypse storyline, there’s new “Supernatural” content to be found on the net in the form of 10, 3-minute webisodes based on the “Ghostfacers”. You remember the Ghostfacers, don’t you? Those “Ghost Hunters”-wannabes who the brothers Winchester ran across in year one, then again in year three? Well they’re back.
You knew it had to happen: Dean and Sam Winchester REALLY breaks through the fourth wall in tonight’s episode of “Supernatural”, titled, “Changing Channels”. It looks like the apocalypse and all that end of the world stuff will just have to wait while the boys have to figure out how to escape the Trickster’s latest game — trapped inside some of America’s current crop of mindnumbingly SHITTY TV shows.
The boys return for their fifth season, picking up where Season 4 left off, with Sam and Dean Winchester (Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles) stuck in a vault as Lucifer begins to rise from Hell, the boys having failed miserably to stop the Evil One’s return to Earth throughout much of last season. With the damage done, it’s all-out demon apocalypse! Right? Not really, as it turns out.
