Showrunner Robbie Thompson teases The Winchesters Season 2 story ideas, but there's no word on whether the show will be renewed.

The show recently completed its first season on The CW, and some old faces returned, including Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles), who also narrates the new series.

What The Winchesters Season 2 Could Look Like

The Supernatural spinoff series is set in the 1970s and follows John and Mary Winchester (Drake Rodger and Meg Donnelly) as they meet, fall in love, and fight the supernatural together.

Thompson tells TVLine that The Winchesters Season 2 is already being considered. The show's second season has been discussed at The CW, but there has been no official renewal due to the network's ongoing upheavals.

The Season 1 finale was regarded as a series finale, but Thompson expresses excitement about what The Winchesters Season 2 may potentially look like.

"The first act of that is always the meeting and the falling in love and the intensity of that. But then it's a question of how do you sustain it, and what does that look like, especially in a universe where monsters are real," the showrunner said. "

"And so we have an incredible opportunity, given a chance to tell more story, to really get into the meat of what it means to be in a relationship in this kind of context, what it means to sustain love, not just fall in love."

What are The Winchesters' Chances of Renewal?

The Winchesters was ordered before Nexstar's acquisition of The CW, and its future is uncertain as the network works out its long-term strategy.

The CW has been undergoing considerable changes as Nexstar, its new majority owner, implements its new broadcast plans. Nexstar acquired 75% of The CW in November 2022, and network executives have stated that very few CW shows will be renewed for the 2023/2024 broadcast season.

While The Winchesters Season 2 has been mentioned, no official renewal or cancellation news has been made.

Thompson's decision to give Season 1 a very definitive ending may have been sensible, but The Winchesters' CW future remains promising.
