Okay, folks, it's time to watch The Winchesters online, as the Supernatural lore extends backwards. And, wouldn't you know it, Jensen Ackles is along for the ride. That said, don't expect Dean Winchester to play a pivotal role in the series.
The Winchesters premieres today (Tuesday, October 11) at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
The Winchesters will be free the next day on The CW's app.
Ackles narrates each episode of this series that will look to answer questions about the long-running CW series. The Winchesters focuses on Dean and Sam's mother Mary (Meg Donnelly), who is bringing dear ol' dad John Winchester (Drake Rodger) into the family business.
Yes, Mary's a demon hunter, and John's a newbie, and we're going back to the Lawrence in 1972. John's fresh home from war, and arrives to find that things are a lot more supernatural than when he left.
Both Mary and John have daddy issues, as their fathers are missing. The cast of characters is rounded out by trainee Latika (Nida Khurshid) and the holy-water shooting Carlos (Jonathan “Jojo” Fleites) who is all about the rock and roll.

Here's everything to know about how to watch The Winchesters online.
How to watch The Winchesters anywhere online
Just because The CW isn't available everywhere doesn't mean you need to miss The Winchesters. Watching along with the rest of the internet can be pretty easy. With the right VPN (virtual private network), you can stream the show from wherever you go.
We've evaluated many options, and the best VPN is ExpressVPN. It meets the VPN needs of the vast majority of users, offering outstanding compatibility with most devices and impressive connection speeds. It's also affordable at $12.95 per month. (Signing up for longer periods of six months or a year reduces the cost even more.)
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your website or streaming service of choice and tune in.
