TNT announces all-day Supernatural marathon for Halloween

If you’re a big Supernatural fan, you’re gig to dig this. Cable channel TNT will be airing an all-day marathon of the show on Halloween.

Boo

After not watching it for 12 seasons, I finally caught a few dozen episodes of Supernatural last year. I can see why the show has lasted for so long. It’s a lot of fun, with fresh spins on some supernatural and even religious themes. There’s quite a bit of action too, and just plain old cool stuff going on.

So with that in mind, I’m one of the fans who will probably be tuning in for at least part of the marathon that TNT has in store. This set of episodes is particularly good for those who’ve only started watching recently, since they’re all from older seasons.

You won’t find an installment that is dated later than season 4 for instance. It’s kind of odd too, but they;re not in any kind of order. The pilot episode airs fifth. Sort of weird.

In any event, the show starts at 8am eastern on the 31st, and will end after 12 episodes, at 8pm. Check out the list below for the full list, and descriptions.
