More Spoiler Articles on Supernatural Season 13, Wayward Daughters and Episode 13.06
“It is a charming and very funny episode,” Supernatural executive producer Brad Buckner added. “It’s like the better meta episodes, where you have fun with what the show is and now you get two shows to tweak. There’s a certain amount of expertise on a certain brother about what Scooby world is, and we have fun with that.”
As for the episode itself, Dabb continues, “It’s going to be an episode of Supernatural with Scooby-Doo in it. It’s not going to be an episode of Scooby-Doo with the guys in it. It’s more adult than your average episode of Scooby-Doo.” Co-showrunner Robert Singer adds, “Scooby is the marquee this year. The script really works. It’s just going to be great.”
In June, The CW announced Wayward Sisters, a potential Supernatural spin-off — with a backdoor pilot set to air as Supernatural‘s first episode of 2018 — about a group of troubled women who’ve all been orphaned by supernatural tragedy. Led by the late Jimmy Novak’s daughter, Claire (Kathryn Love Newton), and under the training of sheriffs Jody Mills (Kim Rhodes) and Donna Hanscum (Briana Buckmaster), they’ll become a monster-fighting force. “This is an opportunity to do something in the world of Supernatural that has some of the sensibilities of Supernatural but addresses a lot of issues, scenarios, and characters that are very different,” executive producer Andrew Dabb says.
The obvious difference between Wayward Sisters and Supernatural is that the spin-off will be female-focused, as opposed to the male-heavy Supernatural. Kim Rhodes (who will play the show’s lead Jody Mills) doesn’t like to view things that simply. It’s not “Supernatural with girls,” she explained. “It’s Supernatural with heroes that happen to be female.”
However the show, if picked up, will function a lot differently from Supernatural but it’ll begin in a somewhat similar way. Claire Novak, who has been out on her own, will return to her home with Jody Mills and find things a little different. (Not too dissimilar to Dean finding Sam after many years apart in the Supernatural pilot.)
First and foremost, it was revealed that – unlike its road-trip-rocking Winchesters-led main series – Wayward Sisters will be a stationary series, primarily setting itself in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where protagonist Jody Mills (Kim Rhodes) serves as sheriff. Hinting a more community-centric series, co-executive producer Robert Berens states, “This is a place where romance can happen. Or rivalry.”
