Worst case? You call that worst?
Huh.

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Beverly, if this were a slightly different universe, I would so be there.
I too am kind of squicked by the whole meet-the-actors thing, inasmuchas there's this whole hideous Beatlemania power imbalance thing in this situation, which is quite creepy - but still - set tour! With actual production team peeps! That would be fascinating! And - Impala! Aldis Hodge! Alona Tal! Steve Carlson live on stage! Jim Beaver! (And of course Misha & the Js, and the Ghostfacer guys etc etc).
Plastic Winchester Theatre. Complete with dodgy race and gender issues, and awesome Castiel. This is the fifth of five parts, but there are links to the previous parts at the top.
::is awed::
Ha...all of us are more in love with the production of the show than the actors. We are weird.
The only time I would be worried about losing control is around the Impala. Do you think licking the seat would be inappropriate? What?
HONK!
I don't know. I'd love to be able to sit and talk to them, but about stuff people don't usually ask. Like, would they like to work together again in the future, when the show is done? And is Jensen as interested in directing and behind-the-camera stuff as he seems to be -- would he ever want to direct something, or write something? And if Jared is going to stick with action roles, or does he have a dream role that would surprise people?
Oh, I'd love to sit and talk to them, if I got the kind of random meeting opportunity that, say SA had when she went to have lunch with Roz K in London and Roz brought along her good friend Neil Fucking Gaiman to join them for sushi.
I would really like to talk to both the Js about acting stuff, and scripts, and I think I could probably talk shit with Misha about pretty much everything, actually, although I don't know whether he'd let a person get a word in edgeways. But that whole pay-money-to-be-photographed-with-them thing, and the Beatlemania thing...well, I think that would unavoidably put any conversations on a painfully uneven footing. Certainly with JA and JP, who've born the brunt of the craxy fannishness. So that side of it, whilst not without its appeal (for I am a fangirl) mostly makes me squirm, and not in a good way.
But I think with production people, one would be much more likely to be able to have proper conversations about the show, without them being freaked out that you were going to stalk them/fondle them/whatever. So that would be nice.
Meanwhile - I have randomly committed an act of SPN LOLcat.
Oh yeah, I don't have any interest in standing in line to get an autograph or a picture with them. That makes me shudder, too.*
I was thinking more of a ... randomly met in a cafe or bar thing, where you sit around and shoot the shit. Or even interviewing them.
I feel like, for me, meeting celebrities requires a certain amount of apology. You know, palms out, approaching slowly, "Hi there, I'm not here to try to mate with you, I just wanted to say I like that thing you make at your job."
