List of Supernatural episodes
From Iwe
Supernatural is a supernatural drama television series, created by Eric Kripke, that follows brothers Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) as they travel throughout the United States hunting supernatural creatures. Their main adversaries throughout the series are demons. The brothers first attempt to hunt down Azazel—the demon responsible for their mother's death—and then [[Lilith—who holds the contract for Dean's soul and attempts to free Lucifer. The fifth season features the rise of the fallen angel, whom the Winchesters must stop to prevent the Apocalypse. The series borrows heavily from folklore and urban legends, and explores Pagan and Christian mythology.
In the United States, the first episode of the series originally aired on September 13, 2005. The first season was broadcast on The WB, and following The WB's merger with UPN in September 2006, Supernatural continued to be aired on the new network, The CW. The seventh season began airing on September 23, 2011. The first six seasons are available on DVD in Regions 1, 2, and 4 and are also available on Blu-ray. It became available on Netflix on January 30, 2012.
As of March 23, 2012, 143 episodes have aired.
