The twelve years I've worked on this show have been the highlight of my life, and the best job (if you can call it a job) that anyone could ask for.
I've been privileged to work with some of the best people I've ever met, and write for a group of amazing actors, on a show that I loved.
Supernatural will never get the credit it deserves, most people who are looking at it from the outside are going to focus on how it ran for fifteen seasons, and ignore why it lasted so long.
Eric Kripke (and Bob Singer) created the perfect TV show. One that could grow and adapt with not just one generation of fans, but with multiple generations. As TV changed, Supernatural changed.
But the heart of the show never did: the characters of Sam and Dean were always great on the page, but Jared and Jensen made them iconic. And, a little later, so did Misha did the same for Castiel.
Because of them (and Mark, and Ruth, and Rob, and Alex, and so many more), and our amazing crew, Supernatural is, I think, that very rarest of things: a show that's important to people, a show that will be remembered.
And that's because of the fans, the people that have been with us for all these years and who have made the show their own.
All TV is a collaboration. Every episode is made by hundreds of people. But something like Supernatural has been made by millions. Every viewer, everyone who recommended us to a friend, or posted about us, or wrote fan-fiction, or drew fan-art
or just opened themselves up to the adventures of two guys from Kansas trying to save the world, and find themselves along the way.
So thank you. For all these years. For all the love, and understanding, and faith.
It's been a fantastic ride.
