"A new clip from the eighth season of Supernatural has been released.  The footage from season premiere &amp;#039;We Need to Talk About Kevin&amp;#039; sees Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) reuniting after the latter returns from a year spent in purgatory.       Dean tells Sam that although he escaped from Purgatory, Castiel (Misha Collins) didn&amp;#039;t make it out, ambiguously stating that &amp;quot;something happened to him down there&amp;quot;.  Collins recently told Digital Spy that the season will feature flashbacks of Castiel in Purgatory, and that the previously-unhinged angel will &amp;quot;get his marbles back&amp;quot;.  Former Stargate actress Amanda Tapping has been cast in a major recurring role in the new season.  &amp;gt; &amp;#039;Supernatural&amp;#039; star Misha Collins: &amp;#039;The show can go on without me&amp;#039; &amp;gt; &amp;#039;Supernatural&amp;#039;: The fall (and rise?) of the CW&amp;#039;s cult drama The eighth season of Supernatural will premiere on The CW on October 3.
