Reply to comment by InflamedLiver in 'The Winchesters' plot holes and retconning might be a sign that the story takes place in an alternate universe from 'Supernatural' by sundaynightheat99

Would a Men of Letters show been easier to do?

definitely more places they could go with that, both literally and figuratively. Different eras, different places, etc. It's still hard to follow-up a series where it was literally a battle between God, gods, God's immediate family, etc.

But it would still be like making a spinoff from Buffy/Angel about the Watchers. Fascinating in theory, but they could at best be fighting low-to-mid level threats, which after the Buffy/Angel series, would just not have the same stakes.

Damn, if only they found better actors for their attempted spin off years back with the Werewolf mafia family.

I'd have liked to see a focus on the Roadhouse. Covering after Mary >!died, but before John died.!<

Hell yeah. That would have been awesome. Or even just on John while the kids were young.
