Yes!

Exactly. I had to try really hard not to say that I wanted to give him a blanket and feed him soup, but that, basically, is it. Bless him.

You know what bugs me about how pretty the Js are? I've had to create an entirely new category of celebrity crush for them. And it's spreading, like a damn disease.

There used to be two categories of actors, those that were crushable (and therefore fuckable) and those that weren't. So, screensavers, NC-17 fic and lusty thoughts for the first group, and the cutting room floor for the rest.

Now, now, I've got a new group that I find disturbing to my self-image. It's the "must pinch their cheeks and feed them soup" group. WTF? Brain? Libido? What is wrong with you? Even perfectly fine men like Mark Harmon in my own damn age group are falling into that latter category. Not fair! I say, just not fair at all. The worst fucking thing about turning 50 was discovering this new type of crush. It's downright demoralizing to ego.

...I do feel kind of bad about being so shallow, but, but, but, jings, he's pretty.

He really, really is. And time is kind to that man too. Age looks good on him.

It does feel all kinds of awkward turtle because he's a damn good actor and then I am sometimes gobsmacked because he's very, very pretty.

I watched the two-hour finale of Harper's Island tonight, and recognized Alex Feris, wee!Sam in Something Wicked, as young Henry. Also, Ryan Grantham ("Kneel before Todd!") played young JD. Canadian actor bingo starts early!

I watched, too, Bev. The series was chock-filled with Supernatural recurring stars and guest stars. Apart from the storyline, it was kind of fun just to sit there and guess which episode of Supernatural that particular actor appeared in. :-)

It was like a Supernatural reunion!

Katie, of course, and Jim. The chick who played Katie's sister was in Wendigo. Then Ronald from The Usual Suspects. And Richard Burgi was in Friday the 13th with Jared!

I feel like there were more. Hmmm. And I *thought* that kid that played little Henry looked familiar!

Gina Holden (Wendigo, "That Hailey chick") played the Goth secretary, Corinne, in Blood Ties. She was also in the brief remake of Flash Gordon on Scifi, and she was in the Kinkade movie with Jared. I like her a lot. She modeled for a while in Japan, has a background similar to Misha's actually.

Sail, unfortunately, I'm with you on the avuncular crush thing. Is there a feminine version of avuncular? If not, there should be.

And Fay, this is one of my favorite vids of Jared and Jensen together. The way Jared watches Jensen--obviously there's tremendous affection there. This was at LA con in the spring, right after the season wrapped. The infamous con where a fan asked a completely uncool question and left Jensen floundering for anything to answer. From backstage, "I'm coming to save you!" and Jared came onstage with coffee for both of them and clowned around until Jensen regained enough equanimity to dance offstage singing "He's got jungle fever, he's got jungle fever!"

I shudder to think what the working conditions on the show would be if those two didn't like each other. It would have sunk like a stone, I'm convinced, without their personal chemistry.

And of course the moment it was revealed I was all "of course John Wakefield is CKR. How did we not guess that from the get go?"

And while I'm at it, this clip from the AHBL con in Australia a few weeks after the LA con illustrates for me both the teasing and affection between them, and how relaxed Jensen has become onstage when Jared's there. But it's the comment Jared makes toward the end, when Jensen's finished talking about his "crying technique" in H&H that really warms my heart. Tremendous respect, actor-to-actor. And the fact that he pauses to let Jensen talk over what he's saying.

Yeah, the PWP does just write itself.
