The co-stars of the show, Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, and Misha Collins, did a Zoom “meet and greet” on August 11th with Senator Cory Booker and Senate candidate for Texas M.J. Hegar. The conversation, which was primarily intended as a way to encourage American Supernatural fans to vote in the 2020 election, also revealed that the actors each spent 14 days alone in quarantine in Vancouver before reporting for the final episodes’ shoots in June.

The meet and greet also revealed that the pandemic has forced some rewrites on the final episodes of Supernatural. “There have been some adjustments made from the scripts that we were going to shoot in March to the scripts that we’re shooting now,” Ackles said. “We’ve had to accommodate a pandemic.”
Supernatural has run on the CW since 2005, and with its finale, will have run for a total of 327 episodes, as well as four comic miniseries, 17 novels, a 10-episode web series called Ghostfacers, several attempts at spin-offs, and an anime adaptation by Madhouse that ran for one season in 2010. The series follows Sam and Dean Winchester, who travel throughout North America hunting for monsters. The series has taken a lengthy series of twists and turns over the course of its run which are too crazy to adequately summarize, including encounters with angels, demons, God, the devil, a fanfiction authors’ convention, and a large supporting cast with an immense body count. The Winchesters go through friends like Spinal Tap lost drummers. It’s a whole thing.
The final episode of Supernatural is scheduled for November 19th, and will be preceded by a special retrospective, Supernatural: The Long Road Home.
