5/4/14: Fandom Update: Bloodlines

What Happened this Week?

Supernatural Crossovers

So just this past Tuesday the episode that sparks the Supernatural crossover series was released. Bloodlines will be a spin off of the hit series Supernatural based in Chicago following the five big monster families that run Chicago's underbelly. This'll be quite interesting. After nine years of the show being on air, it is going to be awesome to get a spin off.

Or not? The fandom itself is on the fence on the spin-off. How will we ever be able to love anyone besides our beloved brothers? Another problem is that there has been complete silence about future news. Misha Collins, Castiel on Supernatural, is quite vocal when it comes to news about the show itself and filming, along with the other cast members, but so far no much has been said about the new series.

Going back on the fandom, many are saying that Supernatural is not what it used to be. And that is one hundred percent true. There is a lot of different aspects of the show nowadays rather than back in season one. Many wonder what the plan is from here and whether or not the writers will start listening to the fans again and what they demand; destiel and salt hula hoops in particular. It is certainly sad to see a fandom so annoyed with its show writers (*cough* Doctor Who *cough*).

Another thing in major debate (and I think it is taking away from the fame of Bloodlines a bit) is whether or not Castiel, our favorite angel, will be coming back next season. There have been many a rumor floating around and according to an interview with Zap2it, Misha neither confirmed or denied the return of the angel.

Looks like us fans will just have to wait it out till we get more information on the situations at hand. Hopefully soon.
