About Supernatural (American TV series) in brief
Supernatural is an American television series created by Eric Kripke. It was first broadcast on September 13, 2005, on The WB, and subsequently became part of successor The CW’s lineup. Starring Jared Padalecki as Sam Winchester and Jensen Ackles as Dean Winchester, the series follows the two brothers as they hunt demons, ghosts, monsters, and other supernatural beings. With its eleventh season, Supernatural became the longest-running American live-action fantasy TV series. The series was renewed for a fifteenth and final season which consisted of 20 episodes, which premiered on October 10, 2019. It concluded on November 19, 2020, with 327 episodes aired. The show was filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, and surrounding areas and was in development for nearly ten years. The pilot was viewed by an estimated 5. 69 million viewers, and the ratings of the first four episodes prompted The WB to pick up the series for a full season. Former executive producer and director Kim Manners died of lung cancer during production of the fourth season. The fifth season concluded the series’ main storyline, and showrunner Eric Kripeke departed the series as showrunner. The first name of Sam and Dean’s father was originally originally originally \”Jack\”, and there was a Jack Winchester residing in Kansas, so Kriplek was forced to change the character’s name to \”John”. This prompted him to say it’s a modern-day Western – two gunslingers who ride into town, fight the bad guys, kiss the girl and ride out into the sunset again.
He originally intended for the brothers’ last name to be \”Harrison\” as a nod to actor Harrison Ford, as he wanted Dean to have the \”devil-may-care swagger of Han Solo\”. The name had to be changed for legal reasons, so the name was changed to \”Winchester\”. He originally wanted the car to be a ’65 Mustang, but his neighbor convinced him to change it to a ’67 Impala since people can put a body in the trunk next to the trunk and stop the next time. He wanted to give the series the feel of a modern day Western, such as The Dukes of Hardard, Knight Rider and Knight Rider. He had originally envisioned Supernatural as a movie, but later developed it as a TV series and spent a few years pitching it before it was picked up by The WB. The concept went through several phases before becoming the eventual product, shifting from the original idea of an anthology series to one of tabloid reporters driving around the country in a van “fighting the demons in search of the truth” The series concluded in the fifth season with new showrunners, including Sera Gamble, Jeremy Carver, Robert Singer and Andrew Dabb. The last season concluded with the final episode of the series, which was aired on November 17, 2013, with a total of 327 episodes. The final season was aired in November 20, 2014, with 20 episodes.
