I think we can't really say "this is where they wanted to leave it if S7 had not been on the books" - because I really believe that it was just a matter of an official announcement. Everyone was very confident that they'd be renewed and I think they planned for S7 the whole time. Jensen and Jared had lengthened their contracts - the show was getting very good press (thanks to us) - and yeah, basically the whole thing was in the bag. I doubt anyone was nervous.
I think Supernatural has enough of a following that it'll just keep going until J2 or the writers decide "Ok, that's enough" and end it.
But that's besides the point....
This season is definitely a contender for multiple rewatches! There is so much going on. I have no idea how they're going to tackle the "problem of Castiel" - on the one hand, him defeating Raphael is a good thing, and there could be worse Gods, on the other hand Castiel being drunk with power makes me uneasy. :P
But what do you do against a God? How do you convince a God to return to being a lowly angel who is open to doubt, "betrayal", and abandonment from his friends?
