So I know many of you don't really keep track of the writers of this awesome show, but I'm one of the few people who actually do. And from what I've seen from so many episodes, I know that there are some writers who truly know the characters well and that shows in the episodes they have written.

Ben Edlund, Robbie Thompson, Jeremy Carver, Adam Glass, and Daniel Loflin are some of my favorite writers. These guys are, first of all, superbly talented and very creative but they also understand Sam and Dean like we do. They know their style so we rarely have a moment during their episodes when we think something like this is so not Dean or Sam. They try to tie all the loose ends so we are not left wondering what the heck just happened. Even when certain "bad" creative decisions are made, their writing tries to save the day.

So I want to know who's your favorite Supernatural writer. If you don't keep track of who's written which episode, try and Google your favorite episodes and see if a certain writer pops up more often.

You are on a roll! // Edit :

Ben Edlund wrote Ghostfacers?! 😲 Are you kidding me? 😳 I couldn't believe my eyes, still can't. But that'd still not take away from the fact that he's one of my favourite writers. I can forgive him for all blunders because of The End and The French Mistake, yeah. 😆 So in no particular order, these would be my favourites and just to refesh memory, I'd mention one/two of my favourite episodes written by them :

Ben Edlund (The End, The French Mistake)

Jeremy Carver (Changing channels, Sacrifice)

Eric Kripe ( Swan Song, All Hell Breaks Loose P2)

Adam Glass (Defending your life, Southern comfort)

Daniel Loflin-Andrew Dabb (Yellow Fever, After school special)

Sera Gamble (okay I didn't know she wrote 'Death's Door! So, just for that.)

Robbie Thompson (He wrote all Charlie episodes!)

Okay, if you leave it to me this would be an endless list. 😆

How could I forget Kripke?!!! Swan Song is my most favorite episode! That goes to say that you should not post anything when you are high on meds.

Do you guys know that Ben Edlund won't be returning for Season 9?! 😭 Jim Michael, the exec-producer confirmed it on Twitter. I was so excited for S9 but quite a lot of that excitement was lost the instant I heard that news. How could Edlund leave?!! :( I'm sure S9 would still be pretty good but Edlund episodes are the best.. they're crazy and yet make sense. Gosh, I'm gonna miss his writing.

What on earth?! 😲 No mann, please no. I can't say anything about Season 9 or even Supernatural now when Edlund won't be around. 😳 Like please, get him back. He's the best they had and they cannot afford to lose him. No way! Please, let something happen and he joins back.
