Supernatural is an American television series created by Eric Kripke. It was first broadcast on September 13, 2005, on The WB and subsequently became part of successor The CWs lineup. Starring Jared Padalecki as Sam Winchester and Jensen Ackles as Dean Winchester, the series follows the two brothers as they hunt demons, ghosts, monsters, and other supernatural beings in the world. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television, in association with Wonderland Sound and Vision. The current executive producers are McG, Robert Singer, Jeremy Carver, Phil Sgriccia, and Adam Glass.[2] Former executive producer Kim Manners died of lung cancer during production of the fourth season.[3] The series is filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia and surrounding areas and was in development for nearly ten years, as creator Kripke spent several years unsuccessfully pitching it. The pilot was viewed by an estimated 5.69 million viewers,[4] and the ratings of the first four episodes prompted The WB to pick up the series for a full season. Originally, Kripke planned the series for three seasons but later expanded it to five. The fifth season began airing on September 10, 2009, and concluded the series main storyline; however, The CW officially renewed the show for a sixth season on February 16, 2010. On February 13, 2014, The CW renewed the series for a tenth season.[7] Misha Collins continued as a series regular and Mark Sheppard was promoted to a series regular for the tenth season
