Tonight at 9p Supernatural is back with a whole new season The CW and it has been a whole year since the Sam and Dean have seen each other. Dean has been in Purgatory and Sam has been in heaven…in a way. Dean is back in our realm and he wants to see his brother. What he doesn’t know is that Sam has been living a normal life and has stopped hunting. A few missed calls from Kevin the Prophet, the man they promised to protect, will get the two brothers working together to find him and protect him. Even though they are back to doing what they do they do best, they are not at their best when it comes brotherly love. What has happened to both of them over the last 52 weeks has changed them and we don’t know if they will be the same towards each other again.
I was at a press day with Executive Producers Robert Singer and Jeremy Carver and they previewed what is coming up for the show. Over the next 13 weeks including tonight, we will get flashbacks of what happened to them over the last 365 days and we will see how they changed and why they have done so. We will find out what happened to Cass, but it won’t be tonight.
There is an episode coming up that is about Found Footage. The EPs say it will be a side of the show we have never seen before. Singer says that the Winchester Brothers are in it, but they don’t know it. It also involves college students and something goes awry. The feel of the episode will be like Blair Witch and the Paranormal Projects. Both men are extremely proud of this episode.
Another episode they are looking forward to is one where they find out what it is like to live in a cartoon universe, and it won’t be animated. Per Jeremy, “It will deal with cartoon physics in a real world.” That should be interesting. What episode they say is a lot fun, is there will be another LARPing episode coming up this season.
Closing of Hell’s Gates will be a season arc and fear not it doesn’t mean that if they are closed that Sam and Dean won’t have anything to hunt in future seasons. Yes they want future seasons, so hopefully that means that won’t be it for the two hottest TV brothers!
So tune in for the show tonight and every Wednesday on The CW!
