Supernaturalis one of the most beloved series on TV, with 15 seasons and 15 years of renewals under its belt, but with season 16 up in the air, the fate of two excellent characters is uncertain. Sam actor Jared Padalecki and Dean actor Jensen Ackles made a whole career for themselves ontheSupernaturalshow, devoting over 15 years of their prime to it. Given this, perhaps it is no surprise that, when asked, both expressed their positivity around aSupernaturalrevival. This would give many characters a chance to return.
Although the show officially ended with season 15, a season 16 or anotherSupernaturalspinoff seriesstill seems possible.EricKripke, who also ran the critically acclaimedThe Boys, headed up the popular showthroughout its 15 seasons. He said toColliderthat he would love to return for a revival if “there was something out there that really surprised” him in terms of storytelling, and he could continue telling fresh, original tales with the show. Perhaps one entry route into season 16 is two of season 15’s best characters, who deserve way more screen time.
A Dedicated Alternate Sam & Dean Episode In Supernatural Season 16 Would Be Amazing
HunterCorp Sam And Dean Need More Screen Time
InSupernaturalseason 15, an alternate version of Sam and Dean features, and these two deserve a whole episode or a whole spinoff. ThisSam and Dean head up HunterCorp, a corporatized version of Sam and Dean’s hunter duo. The two are as on-point as corporate television parodies get. What makes them brilliant is the fact of them being played by the very actors that portray the show’s main characters, who are their polar opposites. Ironic humor has always been Kripke’s strong suit and the dry humor of this move is flawless, needing lots more screen time.
Supernatural Season 16 Can Reveal More About HunterCorp Too
HunterCorp Is A Fascinating Concept
HunterCorp is a fascinating concept thatSupernaturalshould exploremore, either in a new season or a spinoff.Kripke proves his ability to parody corporate nonsensemore and more with every new season ofThe Boys. Kripke could bring this aspect ofThe Boysto bear onSupernaturalmore with a renewed focus on HunterCorps.The Boysis, if possible, even more critically acclaimed thanSupernatural(although they both have a 93% score onRotten Tomatoes), which supports the viability of this approach.
If Supernatural Season 16 Doesn’t Fix This 13-Year Dean Injustice, There’s No Point Doing It
If Supernatural season 16 ever happens, this 13-year injustice must be addressed, otherwise there is little point in the show returning at all.
In this sense,The Boysproves that Kripke does still have lots of fresh approaches to bring toSupernatural, and a season 16 would be more than welcome, even despite the inevitable repetition that such a revival may require. It would be worthexploringSupernatural’s HunterCorps as a corporate parody, raising more hilarious details like the alternate Sam and Dean’s choices of hobby and pretentious brunch. But it’s also worth exploring the many mysteries of the alternate world that this version of Sam and Dean are from, answering some of the questions raised bySupernaturalseason 15.
