Just something worth pondering about.

Since 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?

Unless they find some way to extend the current storyline, I don't know how they could even do a 6th season. Like you said, how do you top the frakking apocalypse?! The answer: You don't. You end the show, period.

I, too, would LOVE a series/webseries with young!Mary as a hunter. I highly doubt we'll get one, though:( If they do a spin-off/web-series, it'll probably revolve around a more prominent character, like Castiel or Bobby. I think Chuck would be a good choice if they do webisodes.

The Apocalypse is the ending factor, and I think Kripke knew this when they introduced it last season. You can't draw that out forever, and you can't take a step background in continuing random hunts for the boys. It would get old and boring real fast, and there's no possible way of creating a new mytharc in a short amount of time. Right now things are wrapping up of what we've learned over the course of the series, and I think it's a perfect way to end the show.

Oh yes, Chuck webisodes. I have this thing about Chuck meeting the Ghostfacers or something like that, which would be lolarious if one of them had picked up the Supernatural books or something, lol.
