Oh, Narim! Pffft. He's in everything filmed north of the border, isn't he? Highlander, SG:1, Jeremiah, DA, etc., etc., etc. And I will forever be incapable of seeing Neil in anything and *not* going, "Neil! It's your grief counselors. We've come to hug!"

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.
Neil (Christopher Jacot) was in an episode of Psych, too. (Meat is Murder, But Murder is Also Murder. Which is up there with Criss Angel is a Douchebag for best episode title.)
Couldn't Criss Angel sue over the title? Or would even he shrug his shoulders and say, "eh, yeah, I am a douche bag"? I mean the title is funny, but is also really weird in that it seems pointed and mean spirited. I can see it as a working title for all the writers to laugh about, but then changing it for TV.
That's why the working title was "The Amazing Jay" - I'm sure that they (The CW) had their attorneys working on it to make sure it didn't get them into trouble and they got okayed for it.
Eh, like they say, any publicity is good publicity. Maybe he knows he's a douchebag!
Amy says almost exactly what I was going to. He probably recognizes a certain douchebaginess about his performing persona. And the publicity thing. Maybe he'll do one of the cons now. (Kidding. Mostly.)
I think I remember that after "Family Remains" people here were mentioning the "Home" episode of X-Files. I was just looking through next week's TV Guide (the one with the Obamas on the cover) and they mention it:
"Family Remains," the January 15, 2009 Supernatural episode about a haunted house, was inspired by the controversial "Home" episode of The X-Files, which chronicled the murderous deeds of an inbred rural family. "That episode was so disgusting [Fox] could only air in once [in 1996]," Gamble says. "We like to be grossed out. So we were inspired to dig deep and find our own disgusting."
Home was the first episode of the X-files I ever saw, and it took me about a year before I watched another one.
Ha! Oh, that's funny, Perkins.
"Home" is awesome in its horror. It's a fabulous episode, and it's just magnificently creepy. It also made a lot more sense than "Family Remains," in its own disgusting way.
