From today's featured article"No Rest for the Wicked" is the third-season finale of The CW television series Supernatural. Written by series creator Eric Kripke and directed by Kim Manners, the episode was first broadcast in the U.S. on May 15, 2008. The narrative follows Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles), brothers who hunt supernatural creatures, as they attempt to save Dean's soul from damnation. The episode marks the final appearance of Katie Cassidy as the demon Ruby. The writers initially intended that Sam would save Dean, but the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike prevented the development of that storyline throughout the season. Dean is instead killed, and sent to Hell. The episode received high ratings for the season, and garnered generally positive reviews from critics. The decision to follow through with Dean's Hell-bound contract was praised, as were the performances of Padalecki and Ackles. Sierra McCormick was noted for her "creepy" demon character Lilith.
