“Supernatural” Producer Passes Away

We were very sorry to hear that Supernatural producer, Kim Manners, has passed away. Supernatural creator Eric Kripke announced, in a statement released earlier:

“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.”

Manners passed away last night from lung cancer. Manners first came on the scene as director for the television series Charlie’s Angels and from there, he took on various directing responsibilities until taking on The X-Files as producer.

Our thoughts are with his friends and family at this time.
