supernatural-season-8

Series renewals are traditionally announced at the end of Network Upfronts in mid-May, following the end of the season. However it is not unusual for shows to be given an earlier pickup. Season 6 was picked up early in the year on February 18, 2010, while Season 7 was confirmed on April 26, 2011. Season 8 was confirmed on May 3, 2012. UPDATE: On 4 April 2012 it was announced that Jeremy Carver would replace Sera Gamble, who was leaving to develop other projects, as showrunner. This obviously implies an eighth season for the show but there has as yet been no official confirmation
