"Supernatural" Season 15 "The Gamblers": If They Can't Change Their Luck, Sam & Dean Are D.O.A. [PREVIEW]

With The CW's Supernatural about to wrap up its series' run on the network after the current 15th season, fans have been throwing around a wide range of theories on what the series-ending season will mean for the Winchchesters – which is understandable, all things considered.

Then again, when you tick off a "certain all-powerful entity" so that He forces you into a position of having to relive 15 years worth of "greatest hits"? Let's just say that Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) are going to be presented with a sea of deadly, disturbing possibilities.

With the series' run well underway, there's one more change ahead for fans: a new night. Starting March 16, 2020, Supernatural is moving to Mondays at 8 p.m., serving as a lead-in for Roswell, New Mexico. But let's not get ahead of ourselves – we still have January to get through!

Which brings us to the last new episode for the month, this week's "The Gamblers", which finds Sam and Dean's pool skills being put to a pretty dire test – and a run-in with someone by the name of "Moira aka Fortuna" (Lynda Boyd), who may just be able to literally change their luck against Chuck.

In the following preview for this week's episode, Sam has some doubts about this plan – causing Dean to lay out the severity of their situation.

Because when Chuck (Rob Benedict) aka God comes for Sam and Dean and their luck hasn't changed?

Well… let's let Dean answer that one…

"Supernatural" season 15, episode 11 "The Gamblers": YOU GOT TO KNOW WHEN TO FOLD 'EM – Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) press their luck in a winner-takes-all game of pool. Meanwhile, Castiel (Misha Collins) hunts down a would-be murderer, but not for reasons one might think. Charles Beeson directed the episode, with story by Meredith Glynn and Davy Perez and teleplay by Meredith Glynn.

Though news of the series' was announced in March 2019, fans of the long-running horror-drama series are still coming to terms with the decision and looking for answers. Padalecki and Ackles did their part to get viewers through the stages of the series-grieving process back in April, taking the stage at VegasCon 2019 to explain that the decision to end the series was a "community decision" and was not influenced by the network or the studio.

Check out the moment for yourselves in the video below, starting around the 28:35 mark:

"It wasn't an easy decision. It was months and months, if not years, of discussion between he and I, between the rest of the cast, between the crew, between our writers, between our producers, between the studio, between the network. Nobody wanted to see this show fizzle out.

I think that it was everyone wanting to do the biggest service to the show that we could by going out strong. It just seemed like the writing was kind of on the wall as to when that was happening. Everybody kind of felt that it was coming soon, and so it was just taking that leap of faith of going like, 'Well guys, let's get out the paint and paint that finish line because what we've accomplished is unlike any other.'"

Supernatural executive producers Robert Singer and Dabb also shared their thoughts after the announcement was officially made:

"Firstly, we would like to thank all the people who have been involved with the show both in front of and behind the camera. For us it has been an experience of a lifetime. The support we have had from both Warner Bros Television and The CW has been incredible. We'd like to give special thanks to Jensen, Jared and Misha for making this journey so special. It is now most important to us to give these characters that we love the send off they deserve."
