Whenever he's not Bobby, odds are he's the villain.
Not true! He was a good guy on Deadwood all three seasons, and he was the sheriff on Harper's Island (and still not the bad guy).
Remember that sex we were planning to have, ever again?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dude, your FACE. Your bow legs. Can you get them some work too?

I wonder if he does that because it's quick (I guess?) and relatively easy work? Or stuff he can do in Vancouver when he has days off?

He does it to spite me. Trufax.
OMG, I just realised I dreamt Misha had an upcoming role as a seedy Russian mafioso. Because that's not really happening, right? But I can so clearly see the footage where he's snarling and hissing in a strong accent and with the short hair.
Whoa. So realistic.

Wasn't that sort of his character on 24?

This was a higher ranked guy, in suits, with a thicker accent.
Still devastatingly sexy, of course.

He played a Russian mafioso on csi.
He was a Serbian (I believe) on 24.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I had a dream the other night that CW had moved Supernatural to it's cable station, and there were topless women and other Showtime-level things going on.

Someone on IO9 asked about fanfic again. It's nice to see more voracious readers come out of the woodwork. But one reader said that there isn't any good fic. What??? Then I remembered my sister's reaction to the two SPN fics I showed her, and then the Inception fic she was finding. Her long time in Brokeback Mountain fandom really hadn't given her much quality. We are lucky.
The OP asked for some recs. I don't know if she is into SPN, or into slash, but I figured this shortlist didn't require too much canon knowledge to appreciate:
- Bird of Paradise (Hunger Games fusion)
- It's Always The End Of The World Somewhere: High School alternate universe
- Except Thou Bless Me: PORN. Oh, god, porn. Also, gay.
- (Fear) The Reaper: Psych crossover, comedy
And then I recced a Leverage/White Collar comedy crossover just to show it wasn't all boys all the time.
She also asked about Mary Sue, which is a sore topic for me. I think people throw the term about, calling female characters Mary Sues when they are no cooler than a male character would be (seriously--Sam, Dean, Neal Caffrey, Hardison--how much do they rock?), and assuming that any self-insert has to be wanky. So I had to bring my fic up, and I ended up sending her that with the caveat that I didn't think Mary Sue/self insert was a genre. It is a trope, maybe.
