The Supernatural TV series had a very successful run and lasted for 15 seasons between The WB and The CW. How will this new series fare? Will it also be a hit, or will viewers leave it in the dust since the action doesn’t focus on Sam and Dean? Will The Winchesters be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.
A fantasy-horror drama series, The Winchesters TV show stars Meg Donnelly, Drake Rodger, Jonathan ”JoJo” Fleites, Nida Khurshid, Demetria McKinney, Bianca Kajlich, and Jensen Ackles (narration). Told from the perspective of narrator Dean Winchester (Ackles), the series tells the untold love story of how his parents, veteran John Winchester (Rodger) and demon hunter Mary Campbell (Donnelly), put it all on the line not only to save their love but the entire world. The two cross paths as they’re each searching for information about their fathers. They join forces with young hunter-in-training Latika (Khurshid) and easygoing hunter Carlos (Fleites) to uncover the hidden truths about both their families. Their investigation leads them to a rare book emporium, whose owner, Ada (McKinney), has an interest in the occult and could provide the missing pieces to their puzzle.

An easy cancellation by the cw.
I thought the cancelation announce was published mid season. and it makes perfect sense.
I’ve been a supernatural fan from season 1 pretty much grew up with sam and Dean, so when i heard a prequel of supernatural being the Winchesters bout sam and dean parents, had to watch it. And of course fell in love from episode 1 telling the story from the start now makes me understand supernatural hell of alot better. So fingers crossed there will be a season 2 not havin a season 2 of the Winchesters will be like finding coal under the Christmas tree. Then i may be rewatching supernatural from season 1 for……. Lost track how many… Read more »
Having watched Supernatural from DAY1 and having a lot of the same people involved, especially Jensen Ackles I expected the spin off to be in line with what had already been told. Multiple times. I expected continuity. I expected a show that is set in 1972 to be set in 1972 with attention to detail that was a must in Supernatural. I expected a sense of realism in relation to the Supernaturalverse. Instead I got the Little Rascals trying to do Scooby – Doo in some weird wokeverse that doesn’t even exist today. It’s heartbreaking, disappointing and a huge let… Read more »
I wanted to like this show but sadly it’s trying too hard. The characters don’t ring true. Hopefully they can straighten it out. If not it will be similar to the Rings of Power
My first reaction to the pilot was infinite sadness. After watching Sam and Dean for fifteen wonderful seasons, I expected that one of the leads, who has put his name to this ‘prequel’, would’ve had more understanding of what made Supernatural so awesome. The story of Mary and John could have been a very interesting one to explore even if it had been extensively referenced in the OG show, but it should have stuck to canon…..the two disliking each other and eventually falling in love because of a cupid’s arrow. We could have followed their story as they dated, got… Read more »
I watched the first episode, so far I enjoyed it. I would like to see more of the show. The show is funny and interesting. Keep up the good work.
