As noted above, “The Winchesters” has some big rubber-and-latex-clawed creature shoes to fill when it comes to providing fans with the sort of monster-fix they became accustomed to on “Supernatural.” In this regard, “The Winchesters” showrunner Robbie Thompson realizes he’s prequel-ing a series that sets the standard for monstrous weekly appearances by creepie-crawlies, apparitions, and other non-human sorts. As he told Entertainment Weekly while discussing the show’s premiere episode, he said, “I know that for a lot of people, you hear about a show running for 15 years and 327 episodes, but there was never a shortage of monsters or ideas.”
So how will “The Winchesters” avoid running out of things that go bump in the night in the upcoming season? As Thompson put it, the show respects its roots where monsters are concerned, saying, “A touch point for us was those early seasons of ‘Supernatural.'” While giving scant details, he added, “We’ll be doing a lot of new and fun monsters, but you will see some old favorites.” As for the werewolf-ish loup-garou making a guest appearance in “The Winchesters” recent premiere episode, Thompson explained that the creature wasn’t precisely an all-new model, but that “This monster was kind of a proof of concept for us, it looks familiar, but it has a fresh coat of paint on it.”
