Official CW Press Release for Supernatural Season 10
From the CW
Supernatural
Tuesdays (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET) on The CW
The thrilling and terrifying journey of the Winchester Brothers continues with the tenth season of “Supernatural” on The CW.
Twenty-eight years ago, Sam Winchester (Jared Padalecki) and Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) lost their mother to a mysterious and demonic supernatural force. Subsequently, their father John (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) raised them to be soldiers. He taught them about the paranormal evil that lives in the dark corners and on the back roads of America…and he taught them how to kill it.
Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) have spent the last nine years battling the things that go bump in the night. Over the years, with the help of the fallen angel Castiel (Misha Collins), and the King of Hell, Crowley (Mark A. Sheppard), the Winchesters have straddled the line between good and evil.
Last season, power struggles in Heaven and Hell would push the boys beyond their limits. Crowley was pitted against the Knight of Hell, Abaddon (Alaina Huffman), in a civil war for the throne of Hell, while the recently fallen angels formed battling factions, with the boys and Castiel caught in the crossfire of both conflicts. Meanwhile, the egomaniacal former scribe of God, Metatron [Curtis Armstrong], vied to replace the Almighty in the hearts and minds of angels and humans alike. However, absolute power corrupted the scribe, and the brothers were forced to confront the would-be deity, a conflict ending with the death of Dean Winchester. In the shocking final moments of the season, he would be resurrected by the power of the First Blade, opening his eyes to reveal he has been transformed into a demon! Season 10 begins with Sam’s frantic search for his missing brother, who is gone without a trace. The road to recovering the wayward Dean takes Sam down dark paths, with consequences that will shake the boys to their core. Meanwhile, Castiel has to pick up the pieces in the aftermath of Metatrons campaign. With his grace failing and rogue angels still on the loose, Cass will face the ticking clock of his own mortality as all-new threats emerge to once again push all of our heroes to their limits.
SUPERNATURAL is produced by Wonderland Sound and Vision in association with Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Jeremy Carver (“Being Human”), Robert Singer (“Midnight Caller”), Phil Sgriccia and Adam Glass. Eric Kripke created the series and serves as executive consultant, along with McG, on Season 10.
Nothing really new, except the CW is paying attention to continuity as much as the writers did last year, because no Mary did not die 28 years ago.
Yes, in an otherwise okay press release…..That jumped out at me, too, percy. This seems to further indicate a growing lack of attention to detail at the CW and with the show itself….
I don’t claim to be great at math, but seriously?… let’s think about this….
Sam was 6 months old when Mary died (28 years ago, according to this, making him currently 28/29 at most). In the pilot, Dean said he was 26, which would’ve made Sam 22…
So, IF Sam is now 28, they’ve only been hunting together again for 6 years, not the stated 9……
Or
IF it’s been 9 years since Dean arrived at Stanford (and Sam is currently 28/29), then Dean lied about his age in the pilot, (making Dean’s line “I lied, it’s what I do” even more true). And therefore, Sam was only 19 or 20 at the time…. and he was already interviewing for Law School? Had written (and aced) the LSAT? Wow. Sam must have really been smart…. too bad they’ve knocked him in the head often enough that he’s now …. not so clever.
Come on, CW…. let’s think things through and not FURTHER destroy canon. Yes??
It was a nice press release. Something old and something new.
I just would have hoped totally new information to get but girl can’t have it all. And I don’t think the age was a conspiracy against canon as mistakes happen and pointing it still out that it is a press release we are talking about. The person who wrote it might not know the details. I don’t know all the details. And I can safely say that those can lift their hand up who say they know everything about the show or remembers everything right and never make mistakes.
I focused on the overall and I think it was nice. Almost like a little story telling about the past and what we have now as present. They haven’t revealed a lot from the season 10 and most of this was old news. But Many people want to know more and be exited about season 10. I am one of them.
Only beef I had this press release was that there was nothing new.

“Wow, can I get a copy of the CW’s S9 instead of the one that aired? That season sounds great!”
Hahaha! Yeah . . . that write up makes S9 sound much better than it actually was!

I couldn’t get past this sentence. ANOTHER age issue! Does anyone connected with the show actually watch it any more? By this reckoning Sam was 4 years old when Mary died. Ugh… these people are PAID to get the fact right; they should get the facts right.
