Supernatural was a massive hit, running for a whopping 15 seasons on The WB and The CW. The spooky adventures of demon hunters Sam and Dean Winchester spawned two spin-offs: the prequel series The Winchesters and the anime Supernatural: The Animation. But did you know there were two backdoor pilot episodes that didn't lead to spin-offs? The episode "Bloodlines" tried to launch a spin-off about warring supernatural families. And "Wayward Sisters" would've been a female-led spin-off about a disparate group of hunters. Why didn't the spin-offs happen? Find out on Behind the Backdoor Pilot: Supernatural.
