Filming Dates by Season

Supernatural takes 8 working days to film an episode. Production runs Monday to Friday. If Episode 1 starts on a Monday, the last day of filming is the following Wednesday and Episode 2 starts filming on Thursday.

There is not much public information about the shooting schedule for the early seasons of Supernatural so most dates are based on fan reports, dates encoded in on-set photos, and educated guesses. In later seasons the crew, guest actors, and directors started tweeting during production. Some directors (e.g. Guy Bee) have tweeted pictures of Call Sheets which include 'Day N of 8' along with the date, which makes it definitive when they were shooting.

A normal season has 22 episodes a year. Production begins around the beginning of July and finishes around the end of March. There are very few holidays. They include the first Monday of September for Labor Day, the second Monday of October for Canadian Thanksgiving; the entire 4th week of November for US Thanksgiving; and 2-3 weeks at Christmas. Season 3 was shortened to 16 episodes because of the writers strike; Season 7 was extended to 23 episodes.

The Writers Guild of America strike began Monday, November 5, 2007, and ended February 26, 2008. As the strike began, scripts which were already written were allowed to be filmed, but no new writing could be done. After the strike, new scripts had to be written before filming could begin. Supernatural was able to produce 4 (?confirm this) episodes after the strike and before the end of the shooting season.
