I just came here to post that while I'm behind on episodes, I think I've watched that parody nearly ten times now, also the behind the scenes video. I even watched the Taylor Swift vid (suxors) and the Twenty One Two cover. Parody is the best! It makes me so happy.

Also, that TS vid is so embarrassing and bad. If she was aiming for charmingly self deprecating she missed by a mile and landed in the land of completely talentless.

I wonder if that parody is why Dean mentioned Taylor Swift in one episode.

That's a pleasant thought.

I suspect it's more likely that comment was what the fans seized on to come up with the parody concept.

I had a bit of a Supernatural moment today on the way to meeting friends for dim sum— a black impala (current model, not classic) passed me while "Thunderstruck" was playing on the radio.

Living in KS, I have sen at least 3 vintage black Impala with KS plates, and every damned time, screamed "WINCHESTERS!"

I'm a dork. Luckily my husband also watches SPN.

Padalecki has been little seen since he bowed out of two European cons in May. He turned up at the Gilmore Girls reunion today, though. The group interview will run later this week on the Today show, for anyone who's interested.

Did anyone watch any of the sdcc spn stuff? I only watched the nerd hq panel live and that had very little to do with the show.

I've seen some stuff online though about the hall panel. They got s question about treatment of women and the response was awesome. The cast pushed back from the table or turned around to let production deal with it. The answer got booed and the cast offered zero support.

Then just saw a tiny bit of an interview with Jensen and he said they were getting back to the way of the early seasons and he was pretty openly exasperated with the last few seasons.

I haven't watched the sdcc stuff yet but want to. Very curious to see the treatment of women part. Interesting and go cast.

I did see clips of the Always Keep Fighting candles and Jared's reaction. For as crazy as some SPN fans can be, it is so nice to see fandom do good.

Hmmm, interesting: both Jensen's blatantly unhappy reaction to the "-ish" addendum, to the casts demonstration of their "reaction" to women/Charlie's death(s).

JA tried to moderate afterward by stating that we got Charlie longer than we originally would have, with the implication to be happy with the extra screen time. And as I stared at the all-male cast/staff presence on the stage, I remembered that Misha/Castiel was supposed to be a one-off (or at least a short-run) and the fuckers can't bring themselves to kill him off years later, despite many wonderful ways the STORY could have spelled his demise in dramatic and story-driven and natural fashion, turning a beloved character into a shade instead.

I can be yo hope that the fact that JA's facade cracked at a con will lead to story revolution or threats of quitting that will either end the show or improve the writing and story direction.
