No matter how many years we have witnessed the slow cancellation of almost every single one of The CW's original shows, it was hard to imagine that the network that raised so many kids on Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries, Riverdale and the Arrowverse would suddenly turn around and leave it all behind.
But times have changed, and the network's financial situation required all of these measures to keep it alive. However, back in the day, when The CW found itself in times of trouble, it managed to make the best out of it by introducing one of its biggest hits to the public.
Why Did The CW End the Arrowverse?
Launched in 2012 and running for more than a full decade, the Arrowverse has been one of the biggest factors in The CW's recent success. The original show that kicked off the expanded TV universe, Arrow, was not only an intriguing setup for viewers,...

If there's one phenomenon that best describes the power of fiction, it's the way lines from books, movies, and TV shows can easily find their way into everyday conversation and become a regular form of speech. Or, at the very least, become a go-to phrase for a particular fandom to use in their daily lives.
Supernatural's characters may not have had too many quotes that ended up being widely used, but the way some of them were delivered still lives in fans' brains rent-free. Here are 10 iconic Supernatural quotes we still can't get over.
“Saving people, hunting things, the family business.”
If there's a better way to describe what the Winchester brothers have been up to in all 15 seasons of the show, we haven't found it yet. Perfectly summed up by Dean, this line should have become a real motto of Supernatural. But since it didn't, you can always use...

Remember back at the beginning of this season when the weirdest thing we'd seen was a man giving himself the Human Centipede treatment?
Yeah, me too.
The Boys keeps us on our toes as usual with its latest episode, providing us with scenes no one asked for and no one will forget anytime soon.
And look, I'm not here to kinkshame. But after that dungeon scene, I think we've all earned the right to kink-question.
The episode started off on a dark note, with Butcher torturing Samir while Kessler watched, trying to convince him to make more of the supe-killing virus they need to stop Homelander.
Plus, Frenchie is still in prison, which is a bummer for everyone but especially Kimiko, who desperately misses her friend.

The recent cancellation of The CW’s popular reboot “Walker” has left fans with more questions than answers, particularly regarding the surprise appearance of James Van Der Beek in the season four finale. In a revealing interview with TVLine, showrunner Anne Fricke has now shed light on what could have been a compelling storyline for the show’s fifth season.
Van Der Beek, introduced in the final episode as Walker’s new neighbor, was set to take on the role of a “kooky” cult leader in the upcoming season. This unexpected turn for the “Dawson’s Creek” alum would have showcased a different side of his acting range, blending comedy with a touch of villainy.
“We were going to do the cult next door,” Fricke explained. “He was going to be a really whimsical, amusing character. We were not going to do blood cult, bad, bad, bad cult. We were going to do like kooky cult.

While each actor has their own unique approach to the work they do and their own specific strengths, it's not uncommon for TV and movie stars to look to each other for inspiration. Even the most acclaimed stars sometimes need the help of their co-stars in times of need.
As a result, the most popular TV shows are often intertwined in more ways than viewers may realize. While you may think there is nothing connecting The CW's hit Supernatural and one of CBS' most successful franchises, NCIS, the stars of the show would beg to differ.

Over the years, Supernatural became such a hit that The CW executives made it clear that the show would continue until stars Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki got tired of it.
In one of the interviews, Padalecki admitted that this moment came during the filming of the thirteenth season. He and Jensen talked and decided that the fifteenth season would end the story of the Winchester brothers.
The final opponent proved to be more than fitting. After dealing with Lucifer, leviathans, Crowley, Crowley's mother, Metatron, and so on, the Winchesters came face-to-face with God himself, who turned out to be the main culprit in their misadventures.
Jared Padalecki Could've Played Walker for Years
And although Jared Padalecki has dedicated 15 years to Supernatural, the actor recently admitted he would love to star in a completely different project if he had the chance – Walker. Jared admitted:
“I really would’ve done the show forever.

If you feel like you're experiencing deja vu, you're in good company because it seems like not that long ago, audiences were told that S.W.A.T. would have its last episodes in the seventh season.
But here we are, and we couldn't be happier about it!
Most of the time, behind-the-scenes rumblings come with sour news, but not so much this time. We don't blame CBS for wanting to keep Shemar Moore's handsome face around for another year.
In fact, we fully support it.
While some grumblings accompanied the rumblings, the series still has more good news attached to its name than bad.

After Dean Winchester in Supernatural and Soldier Boy in The Boys, fans would love to see Jensen Ackles don the Batman role in James Gunn’s Dcu. Ackles has already given voice to the role in several direct-to-video DC animation projects, including Batman: The Long Halloween. However, one comment from his co-star in these films could be concerning for the actor’s Dcu debut.

Over nearly two decades and three shows, Jared Padalecki has been one of the faces of The CW. But that doesn’t mean the actor likes where the network is headed. IndieWire (via Variety) reports that Padalecki didn’t hold back about The CW’s future after the network canceled his latest series, “Walker.” In his eyes, its shift to “easy, cheap content” over shows like “Gilmore Girls” and “Supernatural” that gave Padalecki a career will be a downfall.

Jared Padalecki doesn’t need a crystal ball to see where The CW is heading.
The actor, who has been part of the network for more than 20 years across “Supernatural,” “Gilmore Girls,” and the newly-canceled “Walker,” reflected on his tenure at The CW. Padalecki is clearly a veteran of the network, which was then known as The WB when he joined before it was rebranded as The CW in 2006.
“I thought ‘Walker’ was kind of a mixture of ‘Gilmore Girls’ and ‘Supernatural.’ It was a family show with excitement and stunts, and macro storylines married with the micro,” Padalecki told Variety.
Yet that tentpole kind of storytelling is no longer what The CW wants to greenlight, according to the actor/producer.
“I talked with the head of CBS [Studios] and the head of Nexstar/CW, I talked with the other [executive producers] on ‘Walker,’ and I think it was a multivariate kind of issue,...

While Supernatural and The Boys stand apart in their narratives and characters, they share a crucial link in Eric Kripke, creator of Supernatural and showrunner of The Boys. Kripke’s signature elements are evident in both series, contributing to their widespread acclaim.
Recently, another connection has emerged: several Supernatural stars, including Jensen Ackles, Nathan Mitchell, Adrian Holmes, Christian Keyes, Jim Beaver, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, have appeared in The Boys. Ackles, a pivotal figure in Supernatural, holds particular significance. However, Jared Padalecki’s name has yet to grace this list, a detail Kripke seems intent on addressing soon.

We know that both Supernatural and The Boys are among the most popular fantasy series of all time. While these two series have very little in common in terms of their plots and characters, there is one person who connects these two great shows – Eric Kripke – who created Supernatural and is the showrunner of The Boys. Kripke’s trademark elements can be seen in both these shows, and they are among the things that make them both so great. However, as we have reported recently, there are also some other details that connect these two shows, and one of them is the fact that many Supernatural stars have appeared in The Boys.

One of the shows that made The CW as popular as it was until the recent changes was Supernatural. Launched in 2005, the show quickly gained an army of fans around the world and became the pinnacle of the careers of its two stars.
Despite the fact that Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, who portrayed Sam and Dean Winchesters on the show, eventually made the decision to leave, Supernatural will forever remain a very unique chapter in their acting experience. Even the way they decided to end the show's run is not a story you hear often from other sets.

With as many changes as The CW has undergone in recent years, the cancellation of all of its original programming was almost inevitable. Those who have followed the network's journey are more surprised that even one show, All American, remains stronger than all the others that have been cut, no matter what their ratings.
Along with All American, Walker was one of the network's strongest titles. A reboot of the iconic '90s action series, it was showing strong numbers and would likely be just as successful in the future. However, the show was canceled after season 4, and Jared Padalecki is still struggling to come to terms with the news.

In a development that’s sure to excite fans of both “Supernatural” and “The Boys,” discussions are underway for Jared Padalecki to make an appearance in the fifth and final season of Amazon Prime Video’s hit superhero satire. Eric Kripke, creator of both shows, has confirmed that talks are actively ongoing, potentially setting the stage for a reunion between Padalecki and his former “Supernatural” co-star Jensen Ackles.
Kripke, speaking to Entertainment Weekly, expressed enthusiasm about the possibility of bringing Padalecki into “The Boys” universe. “The value of that is to break the internet,” Kripke said. “So we’ll see whether it’s right for the story. But yes, it’s occurred to me that putting those two in a scene together would destroy much of the world, and that’s appealing.”

We often tend to associate certain celebrities with the shows they were on and the characters they played, no matter what else they do or how they try to branch out. But it’s far rarer to link a star to a network. But that’s kind of how it is with Jared Padalecki, who made a name for himself on The CW with shows like Supernatural and, most recently, Walker. But now, for Padalecki, CW might stand for “choice words.”
In a new interview with Variety in the wake of Walker – a reboot of Walker, Texas Ranger – being canceled just last month, Jared Padalecki called out the network for how it has shifted recently. “I feel like The CW that I was a part of last year is not The CW that I was a part of under [former chairman and CEO] Mark Pedowitz for that entire, almost 20-year stretch.

Is Joe Kessler A Hallucination in The Boys? Fan Theory Says It's All in Butcher's Head - Main Image
Jeffrey Dean Morgan is a comic book legend, best known for playing John Winchester in Supernatural, and now he’s the latest new character on Amazon Prime Video’s The Boys – but is he even real or just Billy Butcher's hallucination?
While Joe Kessler ostensibly fills in the role of Butcher's old agency pal who has resurfaced to wrangle our broken hero back from the edge, a recent fan theory about him could change the way we see him and his role in The Boys season 4.

In 2000, at the age of 17, Jared Padalecki landed the role of Dean Forester, the first love of Alexis Bledel’s Rory Gilmore, on the hit family dramedy series “Gilmore Girls.” Originally contracted for only four episodes, Padalecki went on to appear in the first five seasons of “Gilmore” and then booked “Supernatural” — both of which debuted on The WB before surviving the transition to The CW in 2006.
For the better part of the next two decades, Padalecki would emerge as the face of The CW. After playing Sam Winchester — one-half of a dynamic duo of monster-hunting brothers — for 15 seasons on “Supernatural,” the actor became the star and executive producer of “Walker,” a modern-day reimagining of the hit ’90s series that featured Chuck Norris as a high-kicking Texas Ranger. But following the cancellation of “Walker” last month,...

To say that Supernatural has had a major impact on modern television would be an understatement. Mixing the procedural formula with fantasy and horror elements, the story of two brothers traveling the country fighting evil eventually created an army of fans who are now clamoring for a reunion.
Technically, the 15th and final season of Supernatural has already put a full stop to the arcs of both Winchester brothers. However, there is a way to break the Internet again without rebooting the show at all.
Will Jared Padalecki Be on The Boys?

Oscar-nominated writer/director Adam McKay almost brought “The Boys” to the big screen.
During an interview with Rolling Stone, “The Boys” comic book co-creator Darick Robertson revealed that McKay tried to adapt the series into a film trilogy. McKay even wrote a finished screenplay and oversaw “demo animatics of scenes” according to Rolling Stone, but the film was never made.
“The Boys” later became a Prime Video series.
“I wouldn’t change how it worked out, because the show is amazing,” Robertson said. “But he was doing really cool stuff. It just came down to it being 2008, not 2018. I just don’t think they were ready for it yet.”
“The Boys” TV show is produced by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, both of whom also tried to adapt the comic books earlier.

“The Boys” co-creator and illustrator Darick Robertson recently confirmed to Rolling Stone that an early attempt to bring the comic book series to screen was through a film trilogy from director Adam McKay. This was back in 2008 before the launch of the Marvel Cinematic Universe helped turn comic book movies into the most profitable genre at the box office.
It all started with Seth Rogen and his longtime collaborator Evan Goldberg got their hands on the first issue of “The Boys” comic book.
“We were like, ‘Holy shit, this is fucking crazy,’ ” Rogen said. “And that week we went to Sony and we’re like, ‘You guys should make this.’ ”
As reported by Rolling Stone: “Sony did buy the rights to the property, which went through a series of incarnations over a decade before ending up back in the hands of Rogen, Goldberg, and [showrunner Eric] Kripke. For a while, director Adam...

The news of Walker's cancelation came as a major blow to fans of the CW series.
Sadly, it sounds as though demands to bring the series back for a proper farewell season have fallen on deaf ears.
But fans can take some solace in the fact that Jared Padalecki -- one of the hardest-working men in television -- will not be sitting on the sidelines for very long.
In a new interview with Deadline, Padalecki revealed that he's spoken with The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke about joining the cast for the dark superhero drama's fifth and final season.
Padalecki recalls that he didn't hesitate to reply in the affirmative when Kripke offered him the job.

We know that both Supernatural and The Boys are among the most popular fantasy series of all time. And while these two series have only little in common in terms of their plots and settings, they are connected by one person – Eric Kripke – who created Supernatural and is the showrunner of The Boys.

But there are other aspects that connect these two shows, and one of them is the fact that they share some actors, as many Supernatural stars have appeared in The Boys.

But the management at The CW, which inherited the show after the unprofitable The WB was shut down, showed patience, and it paid off. Beginning with the fourth season, the ratings began to rise.
Eric Kripke Wanted to End Supernatural with Season 5
During the first years, the creator of the project, Eric Kripke, had a general idea of the direction Supernatural would take and expected to fit it into three years. Then adjustments were made to the original plan, and three seasons became five.
But a five-year plan was a pretty big statement. Although the showrunner had outlines of the general story, low ratings did not give the creators confidence that they would be able to tell the story in its entirety. As a result,...
