Jensen Ackles and Supernatural fans come together on social media to save The Winchesters after The CW cancelled the spinoff after one season.
After the Supernatural prequel The Winchesters was cancelled by The CW, series star Jensen Ackles and fans kick off the #SaveTheWinchesters campaign in the hopes of reviving the show. The series is produced by Supernatural star Ackles, who reprised his role of demon hunter Dean Winchester for the prequel.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Following news that The CW cancelled The Winchesters after just one season, fans took to social media to potentially save it. While many shared their disappointment at the cancellation, others have taken the initiative to come together and start a hashtag campaign - "#SaveTheWinchesters" - to either convince The CW to renew the series, or persuade another network or streaming service to pick it up.
Why The Winchesters Was Embraced By Supernatural Fans The Winchesters offered Supernatural fans another chance to return to its fictional universe just two years after the main series concluded in 2020. The Winchesters marked the first successful attempt to expand the franchise following two previous attempts that fell through, the Chicago-set Supernatural: Bloodlines and Wayward Sisters, which focused on Sheriff Jody Mills.
Furthermore, The Winchesters also offered a unique opportunity to address grievances with the original series' finale. In the finale, Dean met a surprisingly unceremonious end after being impaled on a spike during a battle with vampires, a decision which left the Supernatural fanbase torn on whether the conclusion was an emotional one, or unbefitting of the character.
With Supernatural having such a strong fanbase, it isn't surprising to see that its prequel series has attracted similar support. That The Winchesters has inspired a fan campaign so soon after its cancellation emphasizes how many have similarly come to embrace it. The CW's downsizing priorities may mean that the network won't be keen on renewing the series despite fan outcry, but other networks may take note of the campaign and give The Winchesters one more chance to carry on.
