I want to see Ackles play Michael, but I don't want Michael to actually possess Dean.
This, very much so. I'm at the point where I love what he can do with a scene, either funny or serious or intense, and I would really like to see him work some more. Even playing another character would be excellent.
Jensen playing other roles doesn't alway turn out well. See Smallville's Jason Teague. Snoozefest.
Amy, from the talk about your book, I had to go check if you had anything available on kindle. Can I just say thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing text to speech enabled. Nothing makes my commute better than being able to continue a book from where I left off reading. Nothing disappoints me more than buying a book and the text to speech is disabled.
Um ... do I? I never keep track of any of that.
::sheepish::
Although I can't imagine *listening* to some of the sex scenes in those books, to be very honest ...
I'm driving forty minutes every day so I do like the story to continue. I love the kindle for the space saving capability but I have to admit that while driving or (even riding because reading makes me car sick) it has been a very cool thing. Sex scenes aren't nearly as awkward as my kindle's robotic voiced curse word that pops up now and again. Although really I am so used to the voice now that it doesn't phase me anymore.
Hee. I had no idea you were listening to them! Well, yay!
Most of the *fan* mail I ever got about the romances was little old ladies ranting about my bad language. And who clearly felt it was their duty to read the whole book anyway just to point out exactly how depraved I was.

Well, and Devour. But he hasn't disappointed me on Show yet.
I haven't read them yet, but I am excited now that I found them on kindle. I will let you know if you need to tone down the lanuguage like that dirty bird Stephen King. But I promise not tie you up and make you write more or send anything signed "your number one fan."

He had me enraptured with Ben/Alec on DA as well. I didn't see him on Dawson's Creek so I can't judge that, but it's been hit and miss for me with liking his portrayal of characters. I guess My Bloody Valentine wasn't bad, but he wasn't playing that far from Dean.
I trust that the synergy between him and the Supernatural writers mean that even when they're sucking, he can find something to pull out of it. So far, so good.
And, DA? Not quality. Ben? Creeptastic. Alec? A delight.
I will watch him on Dawson's again sometime. I was all about Pacey at that time.
I still haven't watched Devour.
What I've seen of him on Dawson's and Smallville is fine, if not especially inspired (although he did do one really lovely scene with Michelle Williams). I felt the same way about My Bloody Valentine -- there's just not a lot of there there.
I think he was sweet and just right for his role in Ten Inch Hero. In Blonde he was beautiful and sensual and a little scenery-chewing in one or two spots, but he was also really young. (And way taller than Patrick Dempsey.)
I'd just love to see him sink his teeth into something else with as much meat as Dean provides. Something well written and dramatic. Like, if he could have played the Christian Bale role in the remake of
3:10 to Yuma,
I think (hope) he would have been remarkable.

oooo...that would have been good. I'm dying to see him do a western though.
