CW party TCA Winter Press Tour 2007

Jan 1: In Australia we actually got the boys wishing us Happy New Year!

Jan 14: The famous Dot Pushing promos start airing in Australia making the rest of the word admire Aussie TV for the first and possibly last time. We learn that Jensen believes in scary ex-girlfriends and Jared likes to keep a very open mind. Srsly. For months I had the joy of never knowing when the boys were going to pop up on my telly and push my dot!

Jan 19: At the TCA Winter Press Tour, and there wasn’t a pink shirt in sight as the boys turned out looking fine in classic black and white.

March 14: Jensen appears on Jimmy Kimmel and most of us feel as uncomfortable as he looks. Crazed Jensen girls scream and Kimmel interviews with the finesse and insight of a turnip. [Screencaps here at winchsterbros.com

March 15: TV Guide Interview with Jared where he talks about his love for video games and gives us this: "Jensen and I…. Sometimes I'm like, 'In my trailer, now!'"

March 26: Supernatural Postcard Campaigns runs a campaign to send postcards (d’oh) of appreciation to the cast and crew in Vancouver. Over 200 postcards are received, and a the comm. Receives a photo of the boys and Cyrus Yavneh in front of them.

March 31: A number of TV bloggers are invited to the set during the filming of the finale.

A report from raelee (http://raelee.livejournal.com/381190.html post now locked) contains some great moments such as how the boys ‘talk Texan’ round each other to keep their accents up. I especially loved this insight into how they work together:

JARED: Something's always got to be going on but he and I are both like, "You know what, we're both here to make a project that we're passionate about, let's get our work done."
There are no rumors going around on set. We have fun on set. There's no... It's remarkable, being two guys from Texas who would probably be going for the same roles, I feel no competition with him. I feel like he's my biggest supporter and I know I'm his biggest supporter.
I am so happy after he just nails a scene. I'm like, "Dude. Rockin'." And he does the same for me and gives me credit where he thinks I deserve it and likewise. But also very constructive with criticism. Like, "Hey, you have a better one in you. Don't get lazy here or don't do that here." It's like, "Absolutely." Whereas someone else could say it, especially another actor you're working with, and you're like, "Are you the director now? Or the writer or producer or something?" But coming from him it's like, "Ok, cool."

He knows me, he's seen my acting more than any other person in this world because I'm acting with him constantly. And vice versa. I've seen him do hours and hours and hours and hours and hours of acting.

JENSEN: I can tell when he's faking a line and it's just something to be able to have that luxury to call each other out on it - to be able to keep each other accountable, essentially - is really cool. I mean, it helps the show out.

When TV Addict visits the set, they witness Jared and Jensen playing up the Wincest…

There they sat at an ordinary kitchen table, Sam and Dean (Padalecki and Ackles, respectively) discussing recent events. While I’m not at liberty to reveal the topic of their conversation, suffice it to say that tempers were flaring. As voices raised, so to did emotions. Dean was, of course, in protective mode, while Sam did what he does best: bristled.
And then things took a most unexpected turn.
Sam and Dean gazed lovingly - dare I say longingly? - into one anothers' eyes. Standing, Dean moved closer to Sam, raising his arm and reaching out as if to touch him softly, when suddenly…

“Cut!” yelled the director. “Okay, boys, now let’s do it seriously this time,” he said, no doubt relegating any footage which might bring to life some of the more lurid fan fiction lurking on the internet to the cutting room floor. (Or, perhaps, if we’re lucky, a future DVD blooper reel!) The talented thespians had, in fact, been ad-libbing a scene while the behind-the-scenes crew worked out the all-important details involving camera angles, lighting and sound.
