I personally think the list of "fan-favorites" are off, but then again it depends on which members of the fanbase you are asking. I would list Bela Talbot, Anna Milton, Lisa and Ben Braeden, Jo and Ellen Harvelle as part of my favorites, but most of them had to be killed off because of the backlash from the majority of the fanbase (the ladies who ship the guys together).

At this point, I believe the series has been stretched out so thin that it no longer matters when it should stop. It has outlived even Buffy+Angel-verse, although I would argue that story was closed off better in terms of writing. '''If Supernatural is to end, my only wish is that it at least ends with a bang, and not with a whimper. Like Def Leppard's Rock of Ages in Swan Song, "It's better to burn out than fade away!"'''
