A Tribute to the Winchesters: The Most Badass Brothers on TV

It's been over 10 years since we met the Winchester brothers, Sam and Dean, and began following their lives as monster hunters on Supernatural. Over the course of the past decade's worth of seasons, we've learned that there's nothing like a classic Dean face and that there are plenty of reasons to crush on Sam. As the show's 12th season approaches, we thought it was high time to give due credit to TV's most badass brothers. Sure, they've had their ups and downs, and sure, it's not always pretty, but we've come to learn that nothing can keep them apart for long.
