SAD NEWS......
Janury 25, 2009 Supernatural and the entertainment
industry lost a wonderful director / producer, Kim Manners to lung cancer. Aside from directing and producing our favorite
show, Kim also lent his awesome talents to shows like, The X-Files, Baywatch, 21 Jump Street, Star Trek The Next Generation,
Simon and Simon, Charlie's Angels and many many more.
We at Support Supernatural would like to extend our deepest sympathy to the cast and crew of Supernatural
and Kim's family and friends. He will be missed deeply.
From our contact at Supernatural....
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that
donations be made to The American Cancer Society in Memory of Kim (www.cancer.org). Any correspondence for the Manners family may be mailed to: Holly
Ollis Warner Bros. Television 4000 Warner Blvd. Bldg
140, Rm 115 Burbank, CA 91522
Below please find a statement from "Supernatural" creator & executive
producer Eric Kripke:
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.
