I hope it's the last season. Don't get me wrong, I love the show, but I would love for it to go out in a climactic blaze of glory instead of petering out like some other shows I've seen.
One of the things I don't like about television shows is that the writers are encouraged to make it last as long as it can. Unlike a movie which has a finite ending (usually), a good TV show can go on for years and years. Usually shows die not because their stories have reached a conclusion, but because their popularity has declined enough that the guys in charge just decide to end it, plot be damned.
I would greatly admire this show if it refused to do that - if it actually came to its plot conclusion and stopped there.

Supernatural Season 5 Spoilers & Scoop: Probable Season 6! « Spoiler Junkie
FANS of the hit US TV show Supernatural can breathe a sigh of relief after stars Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles sensationally revealed that they would be returning for a sixth season.
Speculation had been rife that the show’s creator, Erik Kripke, was going to stick to his original idea of creating a five-year-only story for the hugely successful ghost-hunting show.
As they hunt their way across America with only a classic car and some serious weaponry for company, this story of two monster-chasing brothers has seen snowballing popularity.
But fans had feared that, with the finale of season four approaching on ITV2, they only had one more series to enjoy before its conclusion in spring 2010.
But, in Birmingham at the weekend for the show’s European convention, Asylum 3, I spoke to both Jared and Jensen, who take joint leads in the show as demon-slaying brothers Sam and Dean Winchester. They confirmed that they had signed on the dotted line for season six.
I asked Jensen if he’d made plans for any movies after he wrapped filming on series five. To begin with, he was playing his cards close to his chest: “We find out around January time if the show is going to be picked up again for another season.”
But then he let it slip. I asked him if he’d want to go back for a sixth season and he answered: “I have to. I have a six-year contract.” Well, that settles that, then.
When Jared was asked what he planned to be doing after Supernatural Five, he simply answered: “Supernatural Six. My best guess is that Supernatural will go beyond season five.”
Jared also credited the fans, both in the states and the UK, for getting it this far: “Thanks to all you guys. It’s because you’ve been getting the word out and we really appreciate it.”
Jensen added: “Kripke does only have a five-year contract for Supernatural and the studio doesn’t have to carry it on for six seasons.”
But it seems that the actors, fans and studio hotshots are all keen to see the show go on. Jared told me: “Season four has had the best viewing figures we’ve ever seen and it just seems to be on an upward curve so the studio’s really keen to see more.”
Fans at Asylum 3 in Birmingham’s Hilton Metropole greeted the news with whoops of joy and a deafening round of applause.

Hunt for God?
Or they could go the other way and show a "down-to-Earth" season, with Sam and Dean going back to saving innocents from angry spirits.
humm...don't know if a "down to earth" season would work well after this season. Assuming that the whole end of the world thing is pretty public, I guess they could always do a season of the down to earth stuff mixed with showing the fallout in a world that is shown proof that there is a god and devil...or at least vastly powerful beings that believe they are angels and demons...might be interesting.
