Everything We Know About Supernatural Season 11

If you thought Supernatural would peak in its tenth season, you were dead wrong. While Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki spent a lot of time palling around and making "dad jokes" during Comic-Con weekend, they also revealed some good teasers about season 11. The last finale left us on a big cliffhanger as The Darkness is poised to take over and Crowley might or might not be done for. The show will return with new episodes on Oct. 7, but why wait until then to get some spoilers? Take a look to find out what the cast and producers said about what's to come, and check out the trailer!

Zero time jump from the finale.

All Mark Sheppard would say at Supernatural's panel and in the press room is that Crowley is dead. So why bother showing up to Comic-Con if you're dead?! We'll find out pretty much immediately if he was telling the truth, because the premiere will pick up directly following the events of the season 10 finale. "The time cut is negligible," said executive producer Jeremy Carver during the press round table.

An immediate unveiling of The Darkness.

As you may have guessed, the show's new big bad is "The Darkness," which we got the tiniest peek of on the season 10 finale. According to Carver, we'll find out the full scope of this thing "within the first 20 seconds" of the premiere. You better keep the lights on, because it's about to get dark in here. (See what I did there?)

A renewed focus on the brotherhood.

One of the things that the cast, writers, and creators were amped about sharing is that this season will feature much more interaction between the Winchester brothers. Demon Dean is no more, and they're united against the new villain. Jared Padalecki said that it will have a season-one-type feeling as the team comes together for a common goal.

An episode exclusively in the Impala.

The producers and writers heard fans' cries for more "downtime" with the brothers, and they're giving it to us. Episode four will be solely dedicated to the Winchesters hanging out in the Impala together. Will there be a plot? Who knows, and who cares? This is already epic.
