Alice Jester immediately reported the great news on The WFB, describing the premise of each series and the producers responsible for bringing these ideas to pilot. The news was quickly spread throughout social media by major media outlets, including Variety, Entertainment Weekly and Deadline.
We couldn’t be happier that Robbie Thompson scripted The Winchesters pilot, and joins Jensen and Danneel as Executive Producers. Reflecting on his time with Supernatural, The WFB published an exclusive 4-part interview with Robbie about his episodes, writing style and love of Supernatural. Earlier in his time with the show, we profiled Robbie’s work in television and his first few years as a Supernatural writer.
The WFB‘s full coverage of Jared’s Walker series can be found on our Walker Page.
- I’m the Co-Editor-in-Chief, Social Media Manager (Twitter, Facebook and Instagram), Live Tweet Moderator, reviewer and feature writer for The Winchester Family Business. Before joining the Supernatural Family, I worked for 22 years at a global consulting firm, but after years of long hours, high pressure and rigorous demands, I quit corporate life to raise my children. After my first Supernatural convention, I was driven to share my shock and awe in a two-part essay that The WFB was brave enough to post, and my second life calling, that of being a writer, began. My first published book, Fan Phenomena: The Twilight Saga was released in late 2016. Please share in my cross-fandom excitement by following its Facebook page @FanPhenomenaTwilight and my personal Twitter account @LSAngel2. You can read about this whole miraculous transition in my chapter in Family Don’t End With Blood, published in May 2017.
