Mark Wynn Sweatman has booked a role on episode #1302 of Supernatural.

Director: Thomas J. Wright
Writers: Brad Buckner, Eugenie Ross-Leming

Supernatural season 13 premieres Thursday, Oct. 12 at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.
Supernatural was renewed for a thirteenth season by The CW on January 8, 2017. The season will consist of 23 episodes and air on Thursdays at 8PM EST. Preparation for the season began on June 26, 2017. Filming began on July 12, 2017 and will end on April 19, 2018.
Supernatural is an American fantasy horror television series created by Eric Kripke. It was first broadcast on September 13, 2005, on The WB, and subsequently became part of successor The CW’s lineup.

Starring Jared Padalecki as Sam Winchester and Jensen Ackles as Dean Winchester, the series follows the two brothers as they hunt demons, ghosts, monsters, and other supernatural beings. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television, in association with Wonderland Sound and Vision. This is the second season with Andrew Dabb and Robert Singer as showrunners.

The plan for Season 13 is to return the focus to the core family-brothers dynamic of the early seasons:

This decision to focus in on the Winchester family will likely turn out to be a good one, as no matter what crazy apocalyptic situation Sam and Dean end up in each season, the heart of Supernatural is and will probably forever be the relationship between the two brothers and those they love.

This season will also feature a backdoor pilot to a possible spin-off series called Wayward Sisters.

Supernatural Comic Con 2017 – Season 13 Trailer:

Quynh Mi is busy filming a very interesting, recurring role on episodes 205 -208 of Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency.

Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency on BBC America is inarguably unique with its universe centered around the power of coincidence. Apparently, the quirky show has struck a chord with its audience and the second season of original scripted series Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency is in production.

Starring Elijah Wood and Samuel Barnett, the series is penned by Max Landis (American Ultra, Chronicle) and executive produced by Robert Cooper (Stargate Atlantis, Stargate Universe). Adapted from the wildly popular novels by Douglas Adams (The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy),

Season 2 will return with 10 episodes and premiere in the fall of 2017.

This serialized comedic thriller follows the bizarre adventures of eccentric “holistic” detective Dirk Gently (Samuel Barnett) and his unwitting assistant, Todd (Elijah Wood). With both mysterious supernatural elements like body-jumping souls and sci-fi concepts like time travel, the show takes an insanely improbably set of circumstances and creates a compelling puzzle of the resulting dark conspiracy.

Every season of Dirk Gently explores a different genre. Last season was time travel with a little body-swapping thrown in for fun. This season is fantasy. The duo wend their way through one big, seemingly insane mystery a season, crossing unlikely paths with a bevy of wild and sometimes dangerous characters, each episode landing them a few random steps closer to uncovering the truth.

Legends of Tomorrow Season 3 will be another wild trip through time, focusing on a looming occult threat.

“This is a much more supernatural, spooky vibe this season. We’re dealing more with magic. It’s less real-world bad guys.”

It will feature a new mysterious main villain, described as “a non-human entity,” at the center of an evil occult group. However, some familiar faces will fall into this fanatical fold.

Wentworth Miller and Neal McDonough will reprise their roles as former Legion of Doom members Leonard Snart and Damien Darhk. McDonough will be a series regular, while Miller will recur.

Legends of Tomorrow is an American action-adventure television series developed by Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, Andrew Kreisberg and Phil Klemmer, who are also executive producers along with Sarah Schechter and Chris Fedak.
