KRIPKE: As an aside, I've actually been thinking a lot about Kim today, because the very first time, um, we ever did any public panel for Supernatural period was at Paley Fest during our first season
JENSEN: With Kim.
KRIPKE: And we had no idea that anyone was even watching the show, and then there was like a crowd like you guys, and we were like, 'oh my god, people actually seem to watch this thing!' And anyway, and so Kim was with us, so I hope he's with us here now. Um, but um --
MODERATOR: Do you miss Souless Sam, or are you glad he's gone?
JARED: Ah, both. I do miss Souless Sam, I really, really enjoyed playing Souless Sam. Um, and if ya'll disagree, then...
KRIPKE: No he was--wasn't he awesome?
MODERATOR: Yeah, very good.
KRIPKE: Totally chilling as that. We love what you did with it, by the way.
JARED: Thanks, man, well I...Great material to work with. Um, but I, uh, I've always not been shy about the fact that I like to play a little bit darker, a little bit disturbed. Um, I've had a wonderful time as Sam, and he's...disturbed enough, as it is, but I did have fun time kinda playing with, I guess what the writers have been playing with, which is: what is a soul, where does it reside, what is it--what's it's influence on your personality and your decisions. Um, so I had a great time. I'm happy to be back, but I do...I do miss the little guy.
MODERATOR: And I have to read this question, just because it's the best phrasing ever. Um, you know, and we talked a little bit about this backtage, but for the fans, um, Jensen, do you think that Dean is finally getting back to his usual self now that Sam is all "Soulful Carebear" again?
JENSEN: I missed you Carebear! Uh, yeah, yes I do, and it was kind of a relief for me, because for the first half of the season, it was, uh, it was difficult, you know, to build a relationship with not only the actor, but the character for five years, and then to have that relationship severed, but then still have to work with that person was very difficult, uh, for me as an actor to...I mean, and it's a testament to what Jared was doing, I thought he was doing great as Souless Sam, but he wasn't playing the character that I'm used to working with. So it was really...I struggled with it. In fact I called down and talked to these guys about it, I'm like, 'I'm kind of feeling way out of my comfort zone here, and I don't know what's going on. I just didn't have those toold to use anymore, that I had for the past five years, so uh, I was very relieved when I read that episode and he was getting his soul back, because then I could go back to playing Dean the way that I'm normally playing Dean. Um, it was just, it was difficult--but, you know, it was a good storyline--
KRIPKE: Just this past week, Bob Singer was like, 'Hey I was watchin--I happened to be watching TNT this morning, and the pilot was on.' I was like, 'Oh god, that scene where they walk to the Impala....' And like, for the writing of it--I'm talking about the writing, I mean the guys are always nailing it in performance, I mean really and truly. It's...there are scenes where you just didn't have time, and for instance there's that, just to bring that back because I just thought about it just the other day, like, the pilot where they walk to the Impala and Sam and Dean are talking, and they're talking about like, nothing that two human beings would ever talk about, but just setting up the franchise of the show: 'Well when Dad raised us to be hunters ever since we were three years old!' And the other one's like, 'I know!' And then the other's one's like, 'And then he always had fighting after the creature that took Mom, and he never raised us properly!' And, I always wanted the other one to be like, 'I know, who are you talking to? It's not me because, because I know all this information,' and...
JENSEN: 'Why are you telling me this?'
JARED: 'Who are you talking to?'
KRIPKE: 'So what strange third party are you giving this exposition to?' And so anyway, so, you're never happy with-- at least on the writing side--with all of it, and uh, and like look at it--six years later, and you can tell, like, I'm not over it--
MISHA: So in the first episode that Castiel shows up in, and uh, he's trying to communicate with Dean, and in so doing, his voice--his angelic voice--is exploding television sets and breaking windows...And so I, consummate guest star that I am, thought, um, 'oh you know, I'm gonna do this really deep, gravelly, commanding, kickass kinda window-breaking voice....And I, you know, I may be running into medical problems now. I mean it has been brutal on my throat....So yeah. Regret, a little bit. You know, what'd be nice is if somehow Castiel has a tank of helium with him and then he (sucks in air) and then he just talks like i do normally, you know?
MODERATOR: I think you should talk like...
MISHA: Some way to justify it.
MODERATOR: ...Castiel from The French Mistake. 'Hello!'
JENSEN: I remember when we filmed that scene too, and he came in, and this was the first time I worked with him, and he went into this voice and this shpeel, and after the first take, I turned to our camera department and I just went, '...What is he doing?' I was like '...did he audition?' And so, he knows that, I've told him that, and I continue to tell him that all the time, so...
JARED: He said the same thing to me, because I didn't have a scene with him, and I was like, 'Hey, how's the new guy?'
He's like,
JENSEN: 'Really nice!'
JARED: 'He's, yeah, he's...'
JENSEN: 'What the hell is he doing on camera?!'
JARED: 'Yeah, he's strange.' He was never bad, because he's not a bad actor, obviously. He's like, 'He's, you know, he's...he's really strange.' So we walked past him and he's like, 'I think he's in character, look look.' So...And were you? Were you?
MISHA: (doesn't know)
JARED: Because I remember specifically one moment, he was sitting in the back of a grip truck eating something. It must've been yogurt or granola or something, but we walked past and Jensen kinda gives me this (taps Jensen), cuz we're going from like stage 3 to our trailers, and he's like, 'There he is.' We kinda look, we both sorta did like (turns stealthily)
JENSEN: 'There's the freak.'
JARED: And i was like...But Misha has a very pensieve look about him, if he's just relaxing, so I was like, 'Yeah yeah, it looks like he's thinking or something.'
JENSEN: And/or on the toilet.
JARED: Yeah. Or both.
JENSEN: But I will say that his consistancy in that character has been, uh,
JARED: His saving grace.
JENSEN: It has! And I...it's, it's really grown on me. Nice job, buddy. (pats Misha)
MISHA: Thanks, thanks.
