Furthermore, Kripke, in an interview with the media portal, revealed, "There’s no guarantee who’s going to survive because you don’t have to keep [the cast] for another season. So you can have really shocking, big things happen all the time. The writers, as we're starting to cook it up, are really enjoying that."
