WORKSHOP SUMMARY
 Read this paragraph:
These gaps condition the audience to understand the rules of hunting and the emotional history of the Winchester
brothers through a structure of gossip rather than explication, so the show employs gossip in the way that
Baumeister, et al. observe when they write, “Indeed, one might say that gossip goes beyond educating the hearer
about social norms; it affirms them” (113). The hearer in this case is the viewer. The story of the Winchesters is in
part a rumored story, which makes a certain kind of sense. For example, the fourth season meta episode “Monster at
the End of This Book” signals this structure when Castiel reveals that Chuck is writing the Gospel of the
Winchesters. A gospel is gossip. Gossip is fragmented and authored somewhat anonymously, masking the source of
information so that one is always chasing the initial telling, the first event. So even internally the show reinforces the
viewer’s perspective as part hunter, part gatherer.
