The BBC got the Daleks back that one time. Keep hope alive!

It's almost worse to think about it languishing in the bottom of a pile of lost parcels, or with someone who doesn't know what it was. I'd almost rather it get held for ransom by Becky.

It'll turn up!

Why are you so convinced, Laga?

WHAT DO YOU KNOW????

Behind the scenes of JA's directorial debut - video at the link. Spoilery (of course - mostly casting with some slight plottiness.)

I looked. I didn't listen. Good GOD, that boy is pretty. And we need the boys to wear more T-shirts and fewer layers. Perhaps the wardrobe loss could encourage that?

I was reading one of today's D/C BB stories (Burning The Days) and the author terribly abuses the runwordstogether visceral impression method of conveying emotion. Can I have some actual description of actions, please? An entire paragraph of that--multiple paragraphs of that is too much.

Gasp. That's almost more pretty than I can stand before I finish my morning ration of caffeine.

I understand the wardrobe department has about a dozen replicas of every garment Sam and Dean wear on camera, and I know I saw a photo somewhere of a rack with at least five or six of Dean's leather jackets hanging. Someone who was doing costume research a couple of years back found and linked to the coat from the actual manufacturer, still made and available new, and I have no doubt the backups have been artfully aged as standins. Still, it's disconcerting to lose "the" jacket. Cas' raincoat is probably more easily replicated, but it's a bummer to lose it, too. Sam's brown hoodie? That's the icon garment for him I guess, though he hasn't worn it in recent seasons.

Now that I think of it, the leather coat has been pretty rare in appearance the last couple of seasons, too.

Oh! The above-mentioned fic is a stealth Criminal Minds crossover. I thought it was going to be relegated to a tossed out one-name reference early on, but they actually file in more characters towards the end.

It's a decent story, I just don't like how the sex scenes were written. Still, I'll probably bookmark it.

The missing jacket reminds me that I recently read a fic where they imply Dean got the jacket new for his 18th birthday. Come on, people. We know it was John's. I hate that.

Were the guest stars for that ep in last week's aired preview, and thus fair game in white font?

This is the aired preview, so Bobby and Rufus and fake Twilight vampires are fair game in black font, and no one else is allowable at all.
