Longtime writer Sera Gamble, who has most recently served as co-showrunner on the demon-hunting series, will step down to focus on general development, according to Deadline. In her place, former Supernatural producer Jeremy Carver—the current executive producer of Syfy's hit Being Human—will return to the CW show where he got his start.
Though the move likely doesn't mean much as far as the tone of the show is concerned, as both are longtime alums of the series, it does bode well for a renewal. Why would you create a succession plan if there weren't anything to succeed?

Da es sonst wenig Serienmaterial jenseits der Teenie-Zielgruppe auf CW gibt, ist eine weitere Verlängerung von Supernatural nur zu verständlich. Die Serie ist wirklich erstaunlich langlebig, wobei für mich in der derzeitigen siebten Staffel ein wenig die Luft raus ist.
