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!

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[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.
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.
CKR really is the Michael Caine of filmed-in-Canada tv, isn't he? And aren't we lucky that's so?
Okay, who decided to give them caramels? That was adorable.
Some nice pictures of the Js, including some with Kim Manners. [link]
