Last panel of the day will begin in a few: #Supernatural, with @JensenAckles, @jarpad, @mishacollins, @Alex8Calvert, and EPs Robert Singer, Andrew Dabb, Eugenie Ross-Leming, and Brad Buckner. #TCA19

It would be funny if the TCA panel for Supernatural began with the same 15-minute-ish montage of all 14 seasons so far that the SDCC panel began with.

(that wouldn't go well in this room).

#Supernatural is not a TV show, "it's a 327-hour movie" CW's Paul Hewitt deadpans to a group that definitely appreciates the joke. #LetTVBeTV #TCA19

Ackles will very much help push the future "REVIVAL EVENTUALLY?" questions by saying, "It's a long journey that I don't think will ever be over. I just think we'll go away for awhile. How long, I don't know." #Supernatural #TCA19

When it comes to faces from the past in Season 15, Andrew Dabb says, "Some you'll be expecting, some you won't be expecting." #Supernatural #TCA19

Jared says he likes that there doesn't need to be a false ending for Season 15. They're aiming towards something specific. #Supernatural #TCA19

A lot of "lasts" are coming as they make Season 15, Misha Collins notes, but they're trying not to be precious about it. #Supernatural #TCA19

Jensen says he's trying to hold off all the emotion filming Season 15 "at least until episode 18, 19" - but then it will be a big shift as the actual end approaches. #Supernatural #TCA19

Jared says that when they first began he thought #Supernatural would end with them slamming the trunk at the end of the pilot, just because even getting that far is tough in the TV business. #TCA19

Jensen says when they got to Season 3, they were excited because at that point they felt like they would almost definitely finish Eric Kripke's original five-year plan. #Supernatural #TCA19

Jensen says the ending will feel right and like it was worth taking this journey with the Winchesters. #Supernatural #TCA19

Regarding his earlier comments about the show maybe coming back one day, Jensen says there's a running joke on the set of #Supernatural that "nothing stays dead." But everyone says they do intend to have a true ending as Season 15 concludes. #TCA19

Will they take anything from the set? Jensen: "Technically, it's Warner Bros. property. So we're going to take 'Nothing'" - he put air quotes up as he said "nothing." Jared says that he might already have some stuff in his home from the show. #Supernatural

Jensen is jealous because Jared has the steering wheel from when Baby was demolished at the end of Season 1. #Supernatural #TCA19

Jensen is gonna take Dean's boots, which he's been wearing for years now, saying "A: Nobody wants those. B: I would literally like to hang them up." #Supernatural #TCA19

Eugenie Ross-Leming assumed she'd leave the show before the show actually ended, but the way it's ending "is very organic... It's been a very correct path that got us to where we've been going." #Supernatural #TCA19

Robert Singer said they'd always end the season with a cliffhanger and figure it out later, but now it's a totally different experience knowing they need to have true finality. "Every episode is a piece of the ending" adds Ross-Leming. #Supernatural #TCA19

"Midway through Season 4, we begged them to fire Misha and they wouldn't do it" jokes Jared. #Supernatural #TCA19

As far as being on the CW (and first the WB!) for so long, through so many changes, Jensen says that, "It's interesting now running into people on other [CW] shows at the Upfronts who say, 'I've grown up watching you.'

Jared jokes, "It sucks!"

#Supernatural #TCA19

"There were no concerns about the story unspooling or if the writers could carry on... Jensen and I had conversations for many years." #Supernatural #TCA19

Above from Jared, as you might guess, who continues, "We're two actors in a really interesting situation. At first, you're begging for an audition. Now they're saying 'we're gone when you're done.'" He says, "You don't want to be the last people at a party." #Supernatural #TCA19

"This was a very thought out process. There were a lot of conversations with everyone up here. Andrew came to us years ago to talk about how much more gas we had in the tank" - Jensen. #Supernatural #TCA19

Jensen says that they wanted to end the show when it felt right, "And all signs pointed to this season." #Supernatural #TCA19

"I hesitate to accept the idea that spinoffs didn't work... This is way above my pay grade but I imagine they just didn't work for the network at the time. But they were great episodes." - Jared. #Supernatural #TCA19

Jared says he's not just just trying to get time off when he says he's always liked scenes without him because "it fleshes out the #Supernatural universe." #TCA19

Jensen says that since the show has been so anchored around two central characters, it may have made it trickier to make spinoffs work. But he thinks a Castiel show could work! #Supernatural #TCA19

"I've really grown as an actor and I'm ready to play a father on the CW" - Jensen on what's next, before stressing he's joking. #Supernatural #TCA19

Jensen's joke reminds me he's gone from being in his 20s to his 40s while making #Supernatural, which is crazy. #TCA19

Ross-Leming indicates it's not likely we'll see Jeffrey Dean Morgan again in the final season, feeling his last appearance worked really well to wrap things up for him. #Supernatural #TCA19

"I think it's going to be an epic final season. All of us want that." - Misha. #Supernatural #TCA19

Mark Pedowitz returns for the end of the #Supernatural panel, telling Jensen and Jared, "If you wish to reconsider, I know a network who would be interested."

He says they outlasted one network and nearly two.

Then jokes to the EPs, "I look forward to the pitch on Castiel"

And that's it for #Supernatural! #TCA19
