Okay, that's AWESOME. I love that idea.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

[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.

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

That's the closest I've come to not being skeered by RPF...
It's awful. Hurty awful times a hundred.
I love it. Dysfunctionally, and everything. Can't wait.
They're showing Sam, Interrupted this week and Swap Meat next week. Why can't they repeat from earlier in the season? I still have Swap Meat on my TiVo.

yeah, RPF is the only drawback. Maybe the whole story is told and then the aside is the name of the little boy that saw the woman warrior. There is probably a better way but the thought of it makes me smile.
eta: It could be like a Paul Harvey story. "What was the name of that little boy? And that is the rest of the story. Good day."

The more time goes by, the more I dislike Swap Meat. I really wish they'd gone in another direction and had Jared play the kid and vice versa. I think JP would have been outstanding. But then I wonder if the kid could have pulled off being Sam and that's why they went with what we got.
I can't help but think that was a missed opportunity for JP.

What do you mean? That *is* what we got, isn't it?

I know JP's got a good hand with comedy, but can he do impersonations? At the very least you need to construct a character and have both actors play him, and then have the new guy do a Sam impersonation.
JP played a good goof, but was he really playing the same character as Colton James?

You guys are confusing me.
I don't think JP was supposed to be really playing Gary, because he didn't know what Gary was like. And the Gary only had about five minutes of figuring out what Sam as like. So ... they didn't need to be impersonating each other.
Or are you suggesting that JP should have been there in all the scenes with Dean after the swap, and vice versa?
I swear I haven't been drinking.

This. The brief moments when JP was Gary in Sam's body (particularly in the bar at the very beginning), I just thought he was great. I would have liked to have seen Jared play Gary for the duration of the "swap". I think Jared could have pulled it off, but I'm not sure Colton could have pulled off playing Sam.

I am fine with not having seen it. In a post Enver Gjokaj world, I'm okay with people just not trying. Especially if it's supposed to be contemporaneous. Chad Everett was merely okay--if there hadn't been delight at it being Chad Everett, it would have been less entertaining.

The what with the who?
Also, this is probably a question for you, ita: People get knocked unconscious SO easily on TV. Born Under a Bad Sign is on this morning, and one good crash of Jo's head to the bar and she's out. That's not really realistic, is it?
