No, it’s not because of the nostalgia that comes with it.

Summary:

When the show has been on the air for 15 years, it's fair to expect that very different age groups of fans will join the fandom. Those who have been with the characters since the very first season are inevitably different from the fans who have joined in the last few seasons of the show, and that is to be expected. The Supernatural fandom is no different.

Different eras of fandom also come with different experiences. Those who started watching Supernatural early on never knew about streaming services and were more likely to watch the show on The CW or just buy or rent a DVD. Others who have the option of watching the entire series on Netflix have definitely lost some of the benefits.

Some might say that the need to have a physical copy of something you love as a collectible might not be entirely necessary for the 2020s when everything is digital.

However, in the case of Supernatural in particular, there's more to Blu-ray and DVD copies than just the nostalgia they hold.

Any fan of the show will tell you that it just feels different to start the show on disc rather than a streaming service.
