Don’t stop believing

I will, at some point, have more to say about the announcement last week that s15 will be the last season of Supernatural. But today I want to talk about what The Husband said, which is that for the last season, each episode should be a homage to the series finale of a classic TV show. And I kinda love that idea. I mean, imagine all the surviving

I'm a heathen and I crave a Butch and Sundance ending, but honestly, I'll take *anything* if it's well written!

[caranfindel]

I mean, we’ll be crushed no matter how it ends, so they might as well go for broke, right?

What about an UNHAPPY Newhart ending? Aka.... Sam wakes up in the Cage, everything since s5 was a dream. Hahahaha.

I've definitely been thinking about all these possibilities way too much, I even made a random ending generator.

Oh, you are a bad, bad person. Come sit over here by me.

(Neither of these is Jensen's suggestion that the last scene is Dean trading the Impala for a motorcycle because Sam is dead and he no longer needs a passenger seat. You can go to Hell for that, Jensen.)

I hate that possible ending. First of all, Baby needs a good home and not some random stranger, the bike doesn't deserve to be trashed like that and neither does the Grand Canyon! Plus, if he kills himself he'll go to hell and that's just not a Good Thing. Unless Sam's there, of course, because they'll whip it into shape in no time, find the back door out of there and kick ass somewhere else.

I'd just like to see them closing Baby's trunk and saying, "We have work to do." And then off down the road they go...

I approve!

Agreed. I want the driving together into the sunset ending.

I love the idea of the Butch and Sundance ending. Just because I think that's what they want.

But I wouldn't be sad if S15 was just 20 consecutive MOTW episodes with poignant brotherly bonding moments over the green cooler at the end of each one.

[lira_chimera]

That would be fine with me. :)

[caranfindel]

I would LOVE it. Hell, I think every remaining episode of s14 should be a MOTW too.

My favorite finale is Star Trek: The Next Generation. It revisited the pilot, explored a what-if future, and then fixed the present. The last scene, Picard joins the rest of the main crew in their poker game for the first time. I still get goosebumps thinking about him dealing the cards and saying “Five card stud, nothing wild, and the sky’s the limit.” And then the camera spirals out to space and the crew continues on their adventures, just without us.

It would be the “Sam and Dean drive off into the sunset together” ending.

[caranfindel]

I'd go for that one, too!
