Where to start with Supernatural

Fifteen seasons in order, and then the part everyone gets wrong: the prequel is not a prequel, and watching it first spoils the thing it is actually about.

  1. 1
    Supernatural, season 1 Supernatural

    Two brothers, a car and a case an episode, which is a very different show from what it becomes around season four. Nothing before it.

  2. 2
    Supernatural, season 5 Supernatural

    The end of the story the series was originally built to tell, and the natural stopping point if you only want the good part. Ten more seasons follow it.

  3. 3
    The Winchesters The Winchesters

    Marketed as the story of how Sam and Dean's parents met, and set in 1972. It is narrated by Dean, and the last episode explains why that is only possible after the main series has finished.

Then what? Between those, seasons six through fifteen run straight on. Two episodes inside the main run are pilots for spin-offs that were never made, and one is a mostly animated Scooby-Doo crossover; all three are ordinary numbered episodes and are watched in place. The anime retells the first two seasons and is optional. The Winchesters goes last, not first.

A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below — tick anything off in either place.

Sync & backup

Your progress is saved on this device automatically. To carry it to another device, move the code below.

The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in — good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.

Drag a SagaList image here, or .

This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that — scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.

Restoring replaces the progress currently saved on this device for the franchise the code belongs to.
