CW announces Supernatural return in October, series finale set for November

It's almost time to say goodbye to Supernatural, for real this time.

On Monday, the CW announced that the series, which was originally supposed to end in May before production was paused due to the coronavirus pandemic, will return for its final seven episodes on Thursday, Oct. 8. That means that the series finale will air on Thursday, Nov. 19. Furthermore, the network revealed that the finale will begin at 9 p.m. following an hour-long "finale special" titled Supernatural: The Long Road Home.

Additionally, the CW announced dates for the season 2 premiere of Pandora, the broadcast debut of Swamp Thing, the season 3 premiere of The Outpost, and more.
