Can you see the lower case Es? They have a moose and squirrel!!!!!!!

I talked about this on Tumblr when the Entertainment Weekly cover contest was announced. I have a subscription to EW - I cashed in some airline points that I'm never going to use to fly - and it's bothered me that they ignore our show. A couple of times, a quote has shown up, but when it comes to season premieres and finales, Supernatural never makes their "must watch" list. And when I found out the winner of this contest was going to be on the cover, I wanted that so bad. I wanted to force EW to respect our little show, dammit. And boy did we. (According to the article, "you voted - again, and again, and again.")

So I opened my mailbox today and didn't look at the pile until I got in the car and then I saw these two gorgeous assholes posing like a couple of fucking Vargas girls spread out on that gorgeous car and I literally laughed with glee.

Seriously, look at this magnificent bastard with the face and the hair and the smile and the arm and the legs and HOW DO YOU EVEN EXIST, JARED PADALECKI?

But I have a problem. I can't read the story. I'm afraid of spoilers. I told The Kid that I needed her to read it for me and let me know if there were spoilers, and she was all, how would I know if they're spoilers? And I said, if it says "so in season 12 we're going to..." then it's a spoiler. But she won't do it. She's afraid of messing it up. Maybe one of my friends on the internet will do it for me?

Luckily I can still look at the pretty pictures. Sorry my pictures of the pictures are not so good.

Or I can just hold onto the magazine until May. I've done it before. You remember that special they had right before the premiere of S10? You know when I watched that? Friday. As in Friday, September 2, 2016. And that wasn't exactly on purpose. I was avoiding it because of spoilers but I didn't mean to avoid it for 2 years. I just never got around to watching it, but Friday night I had the house to myself and I was weeding my recordings because my DVR free space is below 20% (partly because I'm hoarding 2 seasons of SPN) and I realized it was there and I watched it and guys, I just love that goddamn show. Love it.

I was surprised that Eric Kripke hated the "Wendigo" episode. He thought it didn't go anywhere, but I thought it did a great job of setting up the characters and their determination to save people even at the expense of their own lives. And now I want to watch it again.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to pet this magazine cover for a while.

(The small print to the right of Jensen says "Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, and Baby." I'm dead.
