Who will be the big bad this season? It’s another angels and demons year. ”It’s not apocalyptic but about who can gain control and keep demons in Hell or angels in Heaven.”
Okay, but I hope we see some angels back, (GABRIEL) because the Leviathans wiped out the Earth garrison. Inais would probably come back. I liked him.
What about Castiel? They’re still framing that out, but Cas will be back a number of times.
You bet your sweet ass he'd better be back. Ratings took a beating last year, and one of that was the result of taking away everything Sam and Dean loved (including Impala, Bobby and Cas)
Will season 8 hinge on Sam trying to save Dean from Purgartory? ”No,” Singer answers. An amount of time passes before Dean finds his way back from Purgatory (not specified how long). They’re planning on doing various flashbacks through the season showing what happened and what Sam did in that time while Dean was away.
Okay, so Dean and Cas being trapped in Purgatory is a great premise, and if you show it in flashbacks, that takes all the tension out of it, cos you know Dean survives. Frowny face.
Why use flashbacks? Because fans usually hate it when the brothers are separated, so that’s why they’re being reunited quickly.
You know, I think we are okay with Sam and Dean being apart for a bit if you do it to good effect.
What does Crowley want with Kevin? The King of Hell needs someone to read the word of God. ”Every year we start with a theme — this is our “Raiders of The Lost Ark” year. This season-long story will be a quest. It’s about Kevin and the tablets and the Word of God.”
Raiders sounds like fun.
They would like guest characters like Sheriff Mills, Charlie and Garth back, but nothing is concrete yet. ”And there’s one new character that we’re talking about. It’s a monster that Dean meets in Purgatory.”
Yes for Sheriff Mills and Garth. Dean meeting a monster in Purgatory is interesting, wonder if it will be female to balance out Sam's doctor love interest, (though all of Dean's love interests have been sketchy plot devices and the longest relationship he's ever had is friendship with Cas - that's why they get shipped - we hope Sam's new girl bucks the trend of all of Sam's gf's dying horribly.
