It was also the CW’s most-watched telecast in the time period since June 28, 2022 (Superman & Lois).
The Winchesters is a prequel to the CW’s long-running Supernatural, centered on Dean and Sam Winchester’s parents – John and Mary. Told from the perspective of narrator Dean Winchester (voiced by Jensen Ackles), The Winchesters tells how John met Mary and then went on to save the world.
Over the weekend at New York Comic Con, it was announced that Tom Welling would join the series this season. He will recur as Samuel Campbell, originally played by Mitch Pileggi in Supernatural. Samuel is the dad of Mary (Meg Donnelly) and the patriarch of the Campbell Hunting family.
