Just something worth pondering about.
Nov. 30th, 2009 06:12 amSince there's been the ongoing rumors about it and although nothing is definite, here are my thoughts on the possibility of a sixth season for Supernatural:
Personally, I think this should be the show's last season. Kripke planned for five seasons in order to tell the story the way he wants, and I want him to end the show on his terms without much of outside influence of adding on, which he clearly voiced his opinion on going out on top several times. So I don't think there should be a sixth season unless, of course, it's an extension to this season's arc. Because really, how can you top the freaking Apocalypse?
But I will say, I wouldn't mind having telemovies or even webisodes afterward. Perhaps something Castiel-centric, or with "the plan" of the angels? *nudgewink*
Hell, a prequel series with the adventures of young!Mary would be kinda awesome, don'tcha think?

Although Supernatural has always been about the Winchester brothers and their family, it would just be nice to have something else be of focus, at least not strictly directed towards the boys but still tied together with the Winchester legacy, in a way. Spin-off with Bobby, or perhaps John when he was just starting out as a hunter with young!Sam and young!Dean, or more backstory on Mary and her family as hunters, etc. There are so many stories to be told that don't have to be about Dean and Sam.
