Reply to comment by [deleted] in 'The Winchesters' plot holes and retconning might be a sign that the story takes place in an alternate universe from 'Supernatural' by sundaynightheat99

Always a possibility, but they have been saying in interviews constantly that there's a reason for the continuity not lining up and that they want to respect the original show's continuity. Doesn't mean the show is immune to bad writing, but a good number of the continuity issues are probably at least partly intentional.

There's no easier way to get the fans to stay with it, than those kind of press sentences.

If not for Dean narrating from the "future," part of it could have just been that someone went back in time and changed things, with the divergence point being someone giving John the note and key that he was given in the first episode.
