But I’m excited to write my own ending now too. And the more I think about it, the more I’m okay with how this one ended. They have a million adventures left ahead of them in our imaginations. Sam and Dean and Castiel and everyone may be at rest in heaven, but in our hearts, they will always carry on. The creators did their best to honor the characters they were given stewardship over and now they are entirely in the hands of the fans. in last weeks almost-series-finale, to imagine Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean. And this stupid pandemic robbed us of a better ending, and that massively sucks. Supernaturals Unhurried Series Finale (Mostly).There’s no more and that’s going to hurt no matter what. And I loved that the episode ended with a final thank you and goodbye from the boys.īut I’m also coping, as I think all the fans are right now, with a strange sudden void in my life. In their final moments in heaven, Sam and Dean wore the same costumes they had on in the pilot and the Impala even had her old license plate back.Īnd I loved all of that, if not the random vampire from season one showing up for no reason only to be killed. Dean died telling Sam to “always keep fighting” in a nod to Jared Padalecki’s campaigns for mental health awareness. Sam and Dean were agents Kripke and Singer, referencing show creator Eric Kripke and the constant co-showrunner, Robert Singer, who also directed the episode and made a cameo. There were many homages throughout the episode. But this was not a love letter, it was a gift of finality and peace to Sam and Dean Winchester, and a homage to who they have always been and how it all started. There have been many episodes on Supernatural that were love letters to the fans, and I get that many fans were expecting that here even though COVID made getting the entire band back together impossible. It left their romance ambiguous on Dean’s side, but that’s where viewers can fill in the gaps and I’m fine with it. Dean and Cas ended up together forever and that’s pretty awesome and beautiful and even though stupid COVID meant we didn’t see Cas, he was free and at peace too. Bobby-the real Bobby-was there to greet Dean and tell him that everyone he loved was there, existing together in peace. And thanks to Jack, it wasn’t the walled-off private memory worlds it was before, this was a new heaven where everyone was together. He was never going to have a normal life (at least on this show, fanfic is different) and this, in this version of the story, was a fitting end to life on earth I guess.Īnd on this show, they’re lucky because death is not the end. And he died at peace, knowing Sammy would be okay. Dean has always known that his ending was to go out saving people and hunting things. After a decade and a half of “to be continued” I had expected the Winchesters to somehow keep going together. Watch that ending below.And I honestly wasn’t expecting that. As I watched the penultimate episode I genuinely thought that the only plot hole left to cover was whatever happened in the Empty after Jack exploded there. And while the Winchesters’ friends and family weren’t in Heaven with them, Dean did see father figure and fellow hunter Bobby Singer (Jim Beaver) when he first arrived. Answer (1 of 17): warning for spoilers I saw it live as it aired and had originally some mixed feelings of it. Kansas was still part of the ending: The band’s song played as Dean hit the road in Heaven in Baby (their 1967 Impala) in the finale, aptly titled “Carry On,” before Sam joined him. The operative question here really is, who the hell killed the entire band Kansas? How dare?! #Supernatural /qZIgO29kx5 Read Dabb’s message below and see the set that Wanek and his crew had built for the original ending. “I love what we have now, Dean in the car on the open road, but I have to admit that I sometimes think about our original idea - all of Sam and Dean’s family and friends, and one of the greatest rock bands ever on a masterpiece of a set, and I miss it…even though it never really existed. “That Supernatural ending…ended,” Dabb continues. “When Bob Singer and I sat down to talk about Season 15, and our inevitable end, we came up with something that felt like a fitting version of Sam and Dean’s Heaven: All the people the boys had met along the way (or, at least, those we could convince to fly to Vancouver) crowded into a re-built Roadhouse, as the band Kansas played our (official unofficial) theme song: Carry On Wayward Son.” “But those final moments were supposed to take place somewhere else,” Dabb reveals. There's already talk, and by the actors themselves, that Sam and Dean could live to see another day.
