Farewell Kim Manners: May you find the Supernatural beyond.

Hey all…

Sad news to report for all you Supernatural fans.

Supernatural executive producer and director Kim Manners lost his fight to cancer Sunday night in Los Angeles.

A statement from Eric Kripke, fellow Supernatural creator and executive producer:

“Everyone at ‘Supernatural’ is walking around in a daze, shocked and absolutely devastated.  Kim was a brilliant director; more than that, he was a mentor and friend.  He was one of the patriarchs of the family, and we miss him desperately.  He gave so much to ‘Supernatural,’ and everything we do on the show, now and forever, is in memory of him.”

This is a huge blow to television fans everywhere. He was also involved in the X-Files as an executive producer and director — directing 50 episodes of the X-Files before the series bowed.

Kim, you’ll be missed. I hope you find the choir of angels waiting and not the war of heaven and hell shown in Supernatural!
