I've seen it all over TV and online news sites--they have Instagram Celebrities that are supporting Biden, showcasing the campaign on their Instagram sites. This just started and the first celebrity is Misha today--he's talking to a top Biden advisor. Saw Misha flashed on a news channel today.

Fantastic can't wait to see the final seven episodes and how they finish up an epic 15 years...see little problem with them getting back to work soon--they'll test everyone up and then they be free to give it all for 2 more episodes. And i'm sure they'll limit the filming crew to the minimum--they are pros, they'll do this well. So with this starting date, SPN filming would have been delayed a little over 4 months. Plenty of time for what Jensen said--to rest up and then go all out for episodes 19 and 20.

Well end of July back to film then for SPN and the boys!--so not that long after all. They are going to test everyone and have 14 day isolation...once everyone passes keep them isolated. Then they can do whatever they usually do--there is NO 6 feet rule for filming...they can have fights and can hug. GUARANTEED the last 2 episodes will look no different than any normal episode--WE WILL see fights and Team Free Will hugs. So yes they emphasize keep as much distance as possible but do not prohibit close scenes. Good news the boys will be back to work soon to finish what they started.

Sports are the worst of all efforts because the of constant physical contact, sweat and hard breathing it's MUCH easier for TV and movies. SPN absolutely won't need to keep actors 6 feet away...they will have hugs and fights guaranteed in last 2 episodes. They will test everyone and limit the crew shooting the actors and then film the episodes exactly how they already wrote them. The actors once tested won't be limited in their scenes. They only have a few actors they need to clear unlike whole teams congregated in an small locker area and weight rooms. Most likely the 12 actors(more or less for the 2 episodes) or so will all test fine--if few don't, they isolate them for 2 weeks and then they will have all the actors clear and free. Then film whatever they need. This will be the norm in all Hollywood productions--many which have schedules upcoming of many months--SPN on the otherhand has an easy 3 weeks at the most to do.

Yeah i'm sure it will be weird and why TV productions are planning things out carefully with Vancouver, so they all can film what they need to while being careful while doing it.

Various articles--the limitations I specifically saw speculated was one try to limit the amount of crew being used to shoot the actors AND with actors maybe large crowd scenes and maybe kissing. And with SPN we rarely have kissing or large crowd scenes. I saw specifically hugging is considered pretty safe. And fighting as long as it's not a huge crowd rumble. For example after SPN is done filming(and while SPN is filming) there will be a ton of TV shows and movies--and they will assuredly have fights and hugging in them. And I suspect even kissing won't be eliminated either in entertainment...they'll just be sure everyone is clearly tested first.

We'll see--it's all conjecture concerning that point...but whenever they start the actors will be able to have fights and hugs. The last updates I saw from Vancouver just a day or so ago was they are still moving forward and Vancouver is presently talking the various TV productions on starting back up.

Once they test everybody as clear--these things will NOT be limited...they will have fights and hugs no doubt. The final 2 shows will NOT be limited AT ALL.

So Deadline talked about a lot of shows starting soon in Vancouver including SPN--they are guessing after some planning most shows will start shortly after July 1...we are getting close. With regards to filming once they are all tested don't think there will be much limitations--SPN doesn't need large crowd scenes except very rarely. The 4 guys will be there till the end with a number of final guest stars also...don't see that changing.

Yes things are moving in right direction in USA and Canada--test them, isolate for 2 weeks and the actors when cleared can do close scenes and to do this for less than 3 weeks is a pretty sure thing. Even shows that have months of filming can do this if they are smart as they will be doing all over Hollywood TV and Movies. For SPN it's xtra easy compared to the others with longer periods of production.

They'll get the 2 episodes done no problem--they can get the actors up there...test them and when all clear then film as close as needs be(no doubt we will have brotherly and family hugs!). Other shows in California are planning on doing it. They only need less than 3 weeks...it will be done. For example Fear the Walking Dead has 9 episodes to film and they are planning on moving forward fairly soon, take precautions but they still will have actors in close scenes.

The Governor of California said film production in the state can start up by June 12...so things are starting to ramp up again. Good news! The work on the 5 filmed episodes I think is done in California--though not 100 percent sire of that. Not sure of Vancouver status but that has to be moving closer to open too. My guess is maybe after 4th of July they finish the last 2 episodes.

So elsewhere we posted that SPN's final episodes will air on Thursdays at 8 in the Fall. The rest of CW regulars shows start in January--leaving SPN with a great spotlight by itself in the Fall. Pedowitz who loves SPN had this quote in the Wrap: "I think everybody, the studio, the executive producers, Jared, Jensen and Misha all want to end 15 years the right way. So it is important that these 2 episodes be done the way they want to do them. We'll just wait it out. We are very much attached to this. So very cool--as suspected no way they won't get the final 2 episodes done...Pedowitz is a huge supporter, Walker is delayed to January with all the rest of the CW, leaving SPN with a nice final push put nicely on a pedestal. And it lives about a half a year longer than we originally thought, to boot! PS--CW Twitter has a poster of the FINAL SEVEN EPISODES...you guys will love it--it has the 4 guys on it with Dean and Sam much larger and centered. And has Dean slightly in front of Sam--well deserving that Dean gets the biggest emphasis on the poster for the finale!

Yep Sue--Supernatural's final 7 episodes will air this Fall on Thursdays at 8. The rest of the CW's regular shows are delayed to January(including WALKER--which is one of 2 new shows that seem to getting a slot in the rotation right away). Very Cool--SPN gets a wide open field with a nice spotlight for the big run to their final run!

Was re-watching the March 16 clip TV Guide that had with the boys talking about the final scene--key clues...Jensen says Dean has big ugly cry reacting to it, Misha says there won't dry eye in the house and also says he's very happy with where Cas's arc will seemingly go. What would make Dean cry big time? I think it could only be the death of either Sam or Cas OR Dean's permanent separation from one of them. And since Misha has already said he'd prefer a sacrificing death for Cas--this makes me think this is why he's happy with Cas's arc...Cas dies helping the bros imo. Know some of here don't like Cas anymore but personally i'd hate this fate for Cas...big time(and now a big chunk of fandom will also hate it)! But I fear this is where they are going. It wouldn't be Jack dying because Dean would be sad but wouldn't have a huge cry over that imo. IT Could be Sam dying but I don't see him dying with the some version of peace happening...and didn't we get the hint the the very last moment is between the brothers? If so, doesn't sound like Sam death. Maybe Sam being permanently separated from Dean like some speculated it being related to Jared saying the possession with Amara thing. Maybe but don't see that as likely. If all the Winchesters were reunited--that could also cause a big Dean cry--but again imo not very likely. So i'd say a Cas death seems likely. Hope i'm wrong big time. What is everyone's best guess that makes Dean cry big time in final scene? Any guesses.

It's cool that re-affirm they are coming back to finish the last 2 episodes. I like how they say this will recharge them with this enforced time off so they can really go all out with a bang for the final 2 episodes. PS--anyone know when this issue hits Barnes and Noble...i'll go there when I know I just need to make one trip.

Sorry should have been clearer--will edit. JDM's show will actually be broadcast on AMC itself--on TV...lack of new product is causing TV to get creative.

It's just been announced that JDM and his wife will be hosting a chat show from their home starting April 17 on AMC's TV channel on Fridays...virtually(that is guests will be virtual)--first guests Jensen and Daneel. It's called Friday night in with the Morgans. Should be fun--really looking forward to Jensen with JDM. JDM is always fun.

I think Pedowitz and the CW is showing SPN much more respect and patience. Anything can happen but I think it's 95% we get the ending--probably higher. SPN got a commitment and they can wait(the CW seems intent on rewarding 15 years and already signaled they will wait)...the actors can't do other work until this virus thing settles anyway, I bet anything the main guys will be more than willing and they just need about 16 days of filming.

I get you--but i'd submit Misha's early tweet was updated by Misha himself, Dabb and the CW--so i'll feel confident about it in an objective sense not to make myself feel better. That said if things go much worse than expected of course that can change--it getting that bad I think objectively is very unlikely...but yes not impossible.

People reading way too much in this--it isn't Misha placating...it's him speaking on behalf of CW(with their stamp of approval). It's no conspiracy because one of the J's didn't do it. It's happening.

Misha left a video message yesterday talking about the delay in production and a subsequent stall in the showing of episodes. He went on to say they will finish all the episodes including the final 2 and it will all be done by the end of the year. He said he likes to savor things and this gives he and us a chance to savor the final season even more. So Misha much more optimistic than his initial post about things a couple of weeks ago. Yeah no doubts they finish it up--they have all the scripts...just need a let up with the virus in a couple or more months to finish the episodes to be done by the end of the year. I already heard many next season shows will be delayed also by the virus--they are talking WALKER will certainly be delayed...they will finish SPN first.

I'll give an 8--DD has improved over the last few years...they are easily better than "PC" Berens. Found it entertaining and the whole cast had good moments. One thing struck me--the Empty said to Cas that he wasn't in Death's plan. Could mean Cas is the wildcard that could help the boys with Death--who I don't trust at all...since Death might not account for Cas. She obviously has the boys and Jack in her grand plans. It also might mean Cas sacrifices himself to do this(hence the sad and redemptive ending)--I can't shake that feeling about Cas's fate.

Frankly I see it differently--the CW works with WB and both shows are on the CW...they'll do a work around. I don't think Dabb is lying even if a bunch on here hate him(I don't)...the show will finish with Dabb's script as all the studios involved want it to. Don't think it will be a movie--they will finish the last 2 episodes while also polishing up the last 5 before them and show them probably 7 in a row. Do I think it will take a year at earliest 2 be filmed? No. Think it will be a lot sooner but even taking your long view--they'll still get the last 2 filmed as written. I personally have no doubts. To each their own.
