the version I saw had temp music from Sunshine, which will now just make the final music so so disappointing, no matter how good it ends up being. Like when the leaked pilot for Firefly had temp music from October Sky (Mark Isham), and no matter how pretty GE's music was, I still had that (Dreams of Boys, I do believe) in my heart as the music for when Mal tricks Simon into thinking Kaylee's dead.

eta to clarify "that"

Winchester family album: Dean visits the past (or is it a Dean spirit - so hard to say and I haven't read the script) - pictures of Dean with young John Winchester + young Mary and with Mary's family at dinner: check out Dean's maternal grandpa. Yes, it's Mitch Pileggi.

Anyway, these are images from 4.3 "In the Beginning" the time-travel episode.

Heroes question: Has anyone heard if we're going to see Micah at all this season?

they probably need to move the story forward a year in order to show him. he might be a grownass man by now.

Found on TWOP w/o original source:

SPN Casting - two new recurring roles:

ANNA MILTON
20s - Bright, intelligent, pretty and nuanced. Once a happy journalism student, she is now a fragile, haunted, and frightened woman who has been hospitalized for hearing voices. After her life is threatened, she goes through a transformation becoming a strong, powerful woman who holds herself with grace --while also kicking ass. Think transforming from "Girl Interrupted" to Cate Blanchette. Actress also should be comfortable with fight scenes...GUEST STAR, RECURRING ROLE. PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES

[ALASTAIR]
Suggest 30s - early 40s. An ordinary looking guy with the bearing of a high-ranking military officer, he's a calm, composed demon with a placid smile that belies his simmering sadism and evil. One of the top demons in hell, he's terrifyingly powerful. Actor should be comfortable with fight scenes... sptv050769 GUEST STAR, RECURRING ROLE. PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES

Oh, the casting is for the two-parter "I Know What you Did Last Summer" - part 1 written by Sera Gamble and Part 2 by Eric Kripke.

Which fills in the 4 months that Dean was in Hell.

I wish they would leave that alone. They are never going to be able to do a credible Hell. We never saw what Angel went through in his hell dimension and he came back wild. Dean at least had the presence of mind to buy porn.

Hell and Heaven were really well done in St. Elsewhere.

It's doable if you focus on the metaphor instead of literal flames etc.

I'd have chosen to just show a barely-lit Dean tumbling weightlessly through darkness.

I'm guessing it's going to be more about what Sam was doing while Dean was in Hell.
