'Supernatural' Season 8 officially picked up by The CW for Fall 2012
By Carina Adly MacKenzie

It's about time! Zap2it has confirmed that The CW has finally given
"Supernatural" cast and crew the official word that the show has been
renewed for Season 8 -- and it's a good thing, too, because we're
hearing that Season 7 will end with an impressive cliffhanger.

Of course, Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles will both return as Sam
and Dean Winchester. Additionally, mainstays Jim Beaver and Misha
Collins have expressed interest in revisiting the show next season. "I
had that conversation with Sera and Bob recently, and told them 'Hey,
just so you know, I would love to keep working on the show,'" Collins
told us.

That said, executive producer and showrunner Sera Gamble has chosen to
develop other projects this year, and thus is stepping down from her
position. Former "Supernatural" writer Jeremy Carver is returning to
the show as a co-showrunner with Robert Singer. Carver will also
continue to run SyFy's "Being Human" remake.

The CW is expected to announce the rest of its 2012-2013 renewals
before May 17, when they'll present their upcoming programming to
advertisers at the New York City upfront.

I think this makes thing better for "Nikita", but worse for "Hart of
Dixie" and "Ringer".

Oh, fuck them, writing a cliffhanger regardless of whether the show
would get picked up.

Heh. Yeah, Gamble surpassed my expectations, but I'm not sorry to see
her go.
