Misha and Michael Sheen are doing some sort of maybe livestream thing tomorrow, on FB perhaps? I didn't look into it too much because it's at noon my time and I will be working, but thought some angel appreciaters here might want to know
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I think Jensen just announced he's going to be on S3 of The Boys on Prime, via Twitter/Instagram. Which I guess means I should watch the first two seasons.

Oh, I checked out the first episode or two of The Boys, but really didn't care for it.
I may jump in blind for Jensen's episodes, just to see him play not-Dean.

I have seen some good reviews of The Boys but the ads really turn me off. There's too much stuff I want to watch and haven't yet for me to give that one a chance, probably, but I hope to hear about Jensen's turn on it from you, Amy!

Here's Jensen's announcement on Instagram. [link]
You don't need Instagram to watch the brief video.
He's so handsome it is stupid.

"When I was a child, I had a crazy, impossible dream — to provide Jensen Ackles with gainful employment. I'm happy to say that dream has come true," joked Eric Kripke, the showrunner and executive producer of The Boys, as well as the creator of Supernatural. "Jensen is an amazing actor, an even better person, smells like warm chocolate chip cookies, and I consider him a brother. As Soldier Boy, the very first Superhero, he'll bring so much humor, pathos, and danger to the role. I can't wait to be on set with him again, and bring a bit of Supernatural to The Boys.
Kripke's probably not even kidding about the cookies thing.

Ha! That's cute

If JA doesn't smell like warm chocolate chip cookies, I'd be amazed.
I thought The Boys looked interesting when it started, but I never got around to watching (especially this year, when I have had my head buried in a book at almost all possible times, and I'm relying on reruns of Mom and Big Bang Theory for soothing background noise). But I'll definitely at least take a look now.
On the other hand, JP or no JP, I have zero interest in watching any iteration of Walker, Texas Ranger. Sorry, Jared.
Man, SPN is really ending. End of an era. Also, I miss ita.

I've enjoyed The Boys, but I was aware of the source material and Kripke's influence seems to be crucial in making it coherent and seem like a story told by adults rather than an edgy 13-year-old. It's still going to have levels of violence, skeevy sexuality/objectification, and general cynicism that may be disturbing to a lot of people because you can't take those out of a Garth Ennis story and still have a story left at the end.

I watched however few episodes of The Boys, and this
violence, skeevy sexuality/objectification
Is what I remember. Actually, I remember there was some vivid gore, and I keep thinking there was probably sex I found too graphic, but I can't recall it. I'm getting more and more like that, though, so I know that's a me-thing.
Supernatural will return on October 8th. The series finale should air November 19th. Too bad they couldn't have scheduled it for November 2nd (when Azazel first killed Mary).
On Monday, the CW announced that the series, which was originally supposed to end in May before production was paused due to the coronavirus pandemic, will return for its final seven episodes on Thursday, Oct. 8. That means that the series finale will air on Thursday, Nov. 19. Furthermore, the network revealed that the finale will begin at 9 p.m. following an hour-long "finale special" titled Supernatural: The Long Road Home.
I keep thinking they'll kill off the boys and end it with "Dust In the Wind," by Kansas, but that's just because I'm ridiculous.
