It’s been approximately 11 years since Dean first showed up at Sam’s dorm room and convinced him to get back into the family business, at least temporarily. (The real credit for getting Sam back on the road goes to the yellow-eyed demon for killing Sam’s girlfriend.) Regardless, from that moment on, it’s been Sam and Dean against the world — or rather, Sam and Dean saving the world… over and over and over again.
Sam and Dean Winchester have a tricky relationship with their parents. The boys lost their mom as youngsters, which threw their revenge-hungry father into the world of hunting. And by default, that meant Sam and Dean were thrown into the world of hunting, too. Cut to 11 seasons later, and not only have they lost both of their parents, but they’ve also met the younger version of their mom and dad, and most recently, reunited with their mother. Did we mention she’s back from the dead? Yeah, we told you it was complicated.
