One of the few highlights of the later seasons of Supernatural but still not enough to get me to watch The Winchesters.

I haven't checked it out yet but all the initial promos looks bad and looked like they were retconning alot things.

I will not stand for this! Supernatural is famous for its inflexible continuity.

excuse me but Supernatural's lore is rock solid for all 47 years it felt like it was on TV

63 years of perfectly crafted storytelling. Every episode seamlessly fit in with everything that came before it. Truly a work of unparalleled art!

Growing up with Sam and Dean for 82 years will always be such a important memory in my life

For a show that started out as cave paintings it sure has aged well.

I don't know. I don't like the premise or what I saw in the trailers so I didn't watch it.

It's like Buffy but everybody is a mediocre actor/actress

Even if it is good, the CW is cancelling all of their legacy content to become more reality show driven. Doubt this lasts beyond this season.

The early episodes were rough but it smooths out somewhat. Some of the actors are amazing. The guy who plays Carlos better have a huge future ahead of him.

But, overall it doesn't so much much reference or put in easter eggs for SPN fans as it tightly follows formulas like the writers are stuck in a time loop. When they revealed that the 'new' big bad who definitely aren't demons can't posses you if you have a certain tattoo I cracked up. Also, if you are even older than, say, 30, it's obvious how often the show uses modern lingo and terms because they do not have a hold on doing a historical time period.

I want the show to do well, a lot of genre shows have a rough first season. But with the current state of the CW a renewal is very unlikely.
