With Jeremy Carver moving to a new show on The CW, Supernatural will have two new showrunners for season 12.
Carver will step down as showrunner at the end of Supernatural season 11 to work on his new show, Frequency, and he will be succeeded in season 12 by two showrunners, Robert Singer and Andrew Dabb, reports TVLine.
Both Singer and Dabb are Supernatural veterans, Singer having been with the series since season 1 and Dabb since season 4. The character of Bobby Singer was named for Singer, who has written, directed and produced for Supernatural. Singer has directed more than 30 episodes of the series. He was also portrayed by an actor in season 6’s mega-meta episode, “The French Mistake.”
Dabb, meanwhile, joined the series as part of a writing team with Daniel Loflin, though in season 8 they started writing on their own. Loflin eventually left the show while Dabb remained. Dabb’s episodes with Loflin include season 4’s “Yellow Fever” and “After School Special,” season 5’s “Sam, Interrupted” and “Dark Side of the Moon,” season 6’s “Weekend at Bobby’s” and “Frontierland,” and season 7’s “Season Seven, Time for a Wedding!” and “Plucky Pennywhistle’s Magic Menagerie.”
Dabb’s solo episodes include season 8’s “Hunteri Heroici” and “Trial and Error,” season 9’s “Devil May Care” and “Bloodlines,” season 10’s “Reichenbach” and “Inside Man,” and season 11’s “Form and Void” and “The Devil in the Details.”
Carver, meanwhile, will move to Frequency, which was ordered to series. The logline for Frequency reads:
“In this reimagining of the New Line Cinema film, a female police detective in 2016 discovers she is able to speak via a ham radio with her estranged father (also a detective) who died in 1996. They forge a new relationship while working together on an unresolved murder case, but unintended consequences of the ‘butterfly effect’ wreak havoc in the present day.”
Supernatural airs Wednesdays at 9:00 p.m. ET on The CW.
