‘Supernatural’ season 10: See Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, demons in new poster
Over the years, the marketing department over at The CW has received some mixed reviews for what they’ve come up with, and the latest poster for “Supernatural” season 10 feels in many ways like no exception.
Let’s start with the good: The “wrestle your demons” tagline is pretty good, and we like the color palette used a whole lot here with the reds and the blues. This suits where we are on the show perfectly, given that Demon Dean will be a major part of the storyline for at least the first few episodes of the show. Being sure to include Misha Collins and Mark Sheppard alongside Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles serves as a nice reminder that all four of them are series regulars.
As for the negatives, let’s turn to the images themselves. Haven’t we seen them before? The reality here is that The CW reuses photos like nobody’s business, and many of the promos and posters they release often feel like an exercise in PhotoShop. We understand why in many ways, given that it’s expensive to do a lot of photo shoots, and “Supernatural” filming first and foremost is the top priority. It’s just a bummer because we feel like they do have great ideas a good percentage of the time, and they just fall through in the execution.
There are many cool things still to come on “Supernatural” when it premieres on Tuesday, October 7, and who knows? Maybe the network will actually release some genuinely cool promo art before that time.
For now, though, let us just ask the following: What do you think about this poster, and are you excited to see what happens on “Supernatural” next?

This poster is pure crap. I’ve seen better fan made posters. And why is Sam front and center? Demon Dean is the big draw this season, folks. If Dean hadn’t turned dark nobody would be talking about the show. Fans are finally excited about SPN for the first time in several years.
