Actor Jensen Ackles has confirmed that the Supernatural spin-off series, The Winchesters, will not be returning for a second season. The show, which debuted on The CW in October 2022, followed the early lives of Sam and Dean Winchester, the central characters of Supernatural. Despite a dedicated fan base, the series was cancelled after just one season in May due to "major changes" at the network and the ongoing writer's strike.
Jensen Ackles expressed his gratitude towards the fans and the cast and crew of the show. He acknowledged the unfortunate timing of the cancellation, which was influenced by the network's shift and the industry strike. Ackles wrote, "Sleep well dear @WinchestersOnCW ...until we meet again. Somewhere down the road." Fans of the show were disappointed by the news and expressed their desire for another network to continue the series.
One fan tweeted, "I sooo wanted The Winchesters to continue on another network that would have the willpower to take it on. It's really a shame. I loved this show so much." Another fan emphasized the significance of the show and its ability to stay away from political messaging, urging The CW to reconsider their decision.
