The UK Times puts SPN on its list of 50 Best US Shows:
11. Supernatural
The best thing to hit ITV2 since the last power cut: if you’re not watching this show, you really should be.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Good job, my people!

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
Did anyone read the EW April 10th issue? EXTREMELY spoilery although that really was to be expected. This close to the end of the season are they going to NOT say something.
Anyway no spoilers here-- but I'd never heard Jared or Jensen talk so negatively about the show. Not really negative, but really not positive either. I guess I am so used to hearing the PR spin that it shocked me to read Jensen say ((paraphrasing)) they'd have to back a Brink's truck up to get him after season 5. Jared sounding almost despondent. ((Again paraphrasing)) What's the point. I do interviews to get more famous to do more photo shoots to be more famous to do interviews. I'm tired of talking about myself.
Dudes, you're bumming me out. There is lip service to "we've told all the stories we can tell" and then there is ...i dunno.
On the brighter side, the angle of the story was how popular SHOW is becomming in the 4th season.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
They're probably exhausted.

Because books.
I read the article, Austin. It was a little surprising, but I took it as mostly how exhausting it is to be a) so far from home, b) constricted by the nine-month shooting schedule, and c) responsible for so very much of the show's success, i.e. in every episode, and nearly always in 75% of the scenes on any given one.
I don't blame them for that, really. They're young, and this attention could be leading to more interesting roles -- if they had time to do them.
Plus, Jensen has seen what happens to CW shows that go on too long (Smallville, I'm looking at you). Much as I love SPN, I really would rather it go out on a high note and see the boys in other things, than sit through something like BtVS S7 again.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
The way you put it is kind of what I expected to read as far as "we want to go out on top" because they can't say "we are just fucking tired of this shit."
Huh. I guess they can.

I agree. I'm loving the show, but I'd be good with it having a terrific Season 4, and ending on an awesome note, rather than lingering on and becoming rubbish. Since evidently we've got a Season 5, and the plot arc is the kind of thing where, really, you have nowhere left to go after you've done an Angels/Demons One Time Only Apocalypse, Season 5 needs to be the last season. And it needs to rock. And then the Js need to go do other things, and hopefully interesting things, rather than cheesy prettyboy crap.

Hopefully the show will continue following the Angel model instead and have a kickass final season rather than final episode.
